I’m currently living in Jamaica studying in Kingston but originally from Belize, my family is of Lebanese descent and one time i grew my beard out and a random jamaican guy called me “Suicide Bomma” 😂. Now all my Jamaican friends call me that as a nickname.
-
‘Of Many One People’. Wish the world would adopt this Jamaican concept. The world would be a better place.

Great interview.. Gideon, saw you through your shorts.. massive respect to you after this.. great interviewer.. empathic, listens, proper conversation.. so enlightening..
-
" I am a local", those words ring true to our motto,--out of many one people! Love dah yute yah!
-
This guy is basically my new favorite on YouTube videos for the last 3 or 4 months now! I appreciate the depictions of how easy going people from Jamaica 🇯🇲 can be and it makes me wish the whole world would take notes to the social acceptance and openness that Jamaican culture can display. AGWANBOSSI!!! BROWN MAN! ❤❤❤

As a Jamaican American, I have to say this interview was pretty cool. I was afraid of the 2 hours but it was well worth it. Kudos 🇯🇲
-
His description of how race is perceived in Jamaica is spot on. His description of Jamaican nicknames cracked me up.
-
This guy is a real yardman, he is the culture
-
I still don’t get why it’s hard for Americans especially to grasp that there are different races and ethnicities in Jamaica just like in the US. I get the “you don’t look Jamaican” so often it’s exhausting to keep explaining. Jamaica’s history is so rich and I’m enjoying uncovering my family’s diverse history. It’s true Jamaica is a mostly Black (African) country, but we’re truly out of many one people.

Yes mark!! As a white guy that grew up in the caribbean, this guy is awesome. Love his clips, glad to see someone have him on for a long form

In the song “Hey Baby” by Stephen Marley and obviously one of the goats mos def, he says “Ive been gone awhile away from you and i hope you OVERstand”. Now i know why he says overstand instead of UNDERstand. Thank you!

Yeah I'm Jamaican and and I live in Jamaica. Gideon was honest, shared his perspective and he did a pretty good job explaining subtle nuances about being Jamaican. I loved this interview and I love his videos. Hope to see more from him. Thank you for this!

First time I met a white Jamaican was in high school and at the same time. One of my teachers was a Chinese Jamaican first time ever seeing that. Jamaica is a lot more incredibly diverse than most people think! Awesome interview! Rep the 305 big dawwwwwg

Caught this guy making shorts a WHILE back and knew he was gonna blow up... guys got a unique take on the street 'pranks', great sense of humor and is talented asf, can't wait to see what his stuff evolves into.

Bob Marley died 42 years ago. His music transcends cultures and races because he sang about unifying themes of peace and love, social justice, fighting against "isms and scisms" - a challenge to fight against racism, colonialism, etc. Bob is unparalleled. He was a true Jamaican who was not in it for the money but to deliver a message that continues to reverberate around the world to this day. RIP Bob. ❤🇯🇲🇨🇦
