Speaker 2 (00:12):
Speaking of taking things.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
You know, you're DJ, you're of the culture, can but
the performance for Puerto Rico like I do as well.
We we have we found more than one friend or
was it just that one time? I don't know, but
like yeah, at this point, which is a testament to
how much we love PR we just oh, are you here?
I'm here, We're here be shout out to Puerto Rico,
(00:37):
but go to some My question is okay, there is
you're of the culture, you're of the diaspora. How do
you keep rayatom black or connected to its roots? And
what's your take on the whitewashing? As a DJ like
you be playing in diasporic places, what's your take on
(01:01):
how do.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
We keep reggadung black into its roots. It's fairly simple.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
I think you just have to actively recognize and honor
the genres Afro Caribbean roots, the origins, and you have
to challenge the white washing that happens and support the
community that birth it and like I said, acknowledging the
roots right, So banam amica shout out like Aldo runs
(01:27):
obviously lod I don't even think people know she's Panamanian.
But just highlighting black regadon artists today, yesterday, tomorrow, just
representation and educating yourself, calling calling out anti blackness in
the industry.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You know, this industry is filled with a bunch of
favoritism and and white washing.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
So call that ship out, like, yeah, you know, I
think people are scared to to speak out sometimes just
because it goes out into social media and now one
hundred thousand people have an opinion, and a lot of
it is uneducated people. So you know, sometimes we want
(02:14):
to stay quiet and not deal with the mess of
just like trying to expand yourself to people that don't
know what the fuck they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
But it isn't hard to speak up, and yeah, keep
the ship black as full.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
And as we're wrapping up here, I would just love
to know, like, what would you like to see more
in culture? If like, if you had one thought and
you would like it to be applied in a mass sense,
what would what.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Would that be something I want to see in culture?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah, like in night life, like in regrets, like people
diacting like what would that be? Like what if you're
like I just wish everyone will Lord, what.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Is that for you?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
I just want things to be dealt with intention right,
do things because you actually love it. I think things
that like should leave the culture more is like the
glorification of overworking, like that toxicity of always having to
do something. You know, I've been doing this for twenty years,
(03:24):
but like every day I'm not.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Just focusing on djail, Like we all have to step back,
take a breather sometimes, and like there's a lot of
bigger things that are important as well. So to realistic
unrealistic and creates a false idea, like if you're not
constantly working on music or doing this or doing that, it's.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Like you're not ambitious or lazy or whatever the case
might be.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
But we need to take care of our mental health
and this culture because Mundo that very, very fucking spooky.
So it's just like, just take a step back and
focus on on things that actually matter. Yeah, I think
the culture needs more discipline and more boundaries.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
With I love that.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I love that front. Is there anything I didn't ask
you that you're like I want to speak on it?
