We love our lost family♥👑👸🏽🤴🏾

@@dollyAlicia lost you said 🌚

We love you too. We are all connected. One luv.

still a high crime rate black on black crime. So love from a far

The similarity in culture is insane! I think if I were to move to Jamaica, I would take like duck to water.

We are you, we never forget our ancestors

Our African culture is deeply rooted in us, in so many different ways as Jamaicans. We see so many similarities in our African brothers and sisters too and in the Mother Land as well. It's very evident that we are Africans. 🇯🇲🇨🇦🇯🇲🇨🇦🇯🇲🇨🇦

True Words🎯✔

Exactly!

Real talk

Same suh

If only black people treat each other the same way then we would be powerful and not be oppressed by the other races. Blacks treat other races with compassion but treat their own race like garbage.

No joke about that bro for real 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🏾

Nigeria 🇳🇬 one of the realest country in the world I would love to be there one day. Love from 🇯🇲

Nigeria.

Awwww nice Yu are o.k. To go there.❣❤‍🔥💙💚💖🇯🇲✊🏿🤲

I will only go to Club Med where I know it's safe and clean!

True but we got be safe come time and wethers foreign or become foreignre depending which part you go sometimes pretending there are like your friend and turn round rob or lie to hurt.

Sorry Am just saying a Example and I pray it don't happens no where in there word

silly people always gotta assume the white man is racist lol

That's what the english language as a native-tongue does for you me thinks. It is just much easier than having another native tongue. If he was a native Russian speaker with no knowldege of any english, that could be much harder. Sadly some people get a lot of privilege only by their mother tongue compared to others who donot have the blessing of having "the right" language. I am not saying that all English speakers are bad, i use it as well to get around in the foreign country that i live in, but it is important, that there is no discrimiation due lack of communication skills between the languages. It is a difficult task at hand. I hope that quantum-grammar can help with this matter.

@@Aluttuh so what white can sneak into black community... And black can sneak into white... Hehehe I know dem white folk secret dem. Mi no fool fi dem.

@@Aluttuh we cant disrgard everyone from that one guy, you can see straight after the other dude felt bad and offerd to smoke joint with him, he even got invited to this party cuz lady in previous video at the food place liked him, so many good people seen in his jamica series, only that "negative" guy out all those good ppl

Backpacking Simon watch out 🧐😂

Wow! That's so nice to hear! Love from Jamaica.

Words bro the picture that they paint on the island is very ridiculous sometimes we need to go and explore place for ourselves and don't follow the narrative 🇯🇲🙏🏾

Jamaica's nice as always crime is there but still a good place to be

❤❤❤👍👍✌

I know lots of Crawford here in Leeds / Bradford

TRUE

Caribbean life

Mi a tell u

Second that “ others are good yet sabbatical is 100% real” statement of your

I’m from New Jersey his video is keeping awake now…

I can’t agree more. In a time when being “fake” is the norm, Tommy is a breath of fresh air. Coming from a region (Massachusetts) where everyone seems to have a “stick up there ass” - I’m happy to know that there are still people like Tommy. Cheers and God bless!

It's easy to learn....

It ain’t another language u know. They speak English too… it’s just an accent. I’m from the Caribbean and I speak English but if I talk to u irl u won’t understand me because of my accent but I’ll understand u.

I love that you show the best part of the island and they say to be aware. Hopefully it's the same as here. This is awesome, where I'd rather be anytime. Treasure island and Bowser..

Fa real

@@shanicesollovan7425 Jamaica suit everybody…

That's so great may his soul rested in loving peace ❤

#home

We love you too❤

Respect n nuff love

Why does it feel like home to you ?

grief comes as a natural human emotion to death, seeing as you won't be able to see the person for a long time, until you pass yourself. But yes, I do agree that people should celebrate the life of the person- because as humans, we survive on happiness.

Amen brother 🙏 you would want to experience an Irish funeral it can go on for days

This is the grave digging, not the funeral. The funeral, which will take place in a church, will be quite somber...and you will have people crying and expressing the natural emotion of grief. Following the church, people will then go to the gravesite for the burial, and then back to the deceased home where the family will provide refreshment. Leading up to the funeral, friends and family will visit the deceased home in the evenings/at night (for about a week) where they'll play dominoes and socialize. That's known as the wake, and it's a period of respect and providing comfort and company for the deceased family. I know this because I grew up in Jamaica. Funerals there are not just about partying. There are designated moments for appropriate conduct.

@@margh737 well said

That's not true. That is ungodly and against the bible. Its either you do things the biblical way and prophetic way or not. Its from a place of selfishness to have a party and play music and 'celebrate' someone's death in this manner. For millions of years it has been one way, and the last 15 seconds Jamicanics changed it, and you think its right? Your are not even deep down convinced its the right thing to do yourself.

I’m Jamaican, my DNA profile states I’m 94% Nigerian. I hope my ancestors have a place for me over there.

We love you too come and visit

Respect from a jamaican BETTER JULIET

Better Juliet, we love Nigerian too.

Nuff respect

Hata me niko area. In Jamaica

Wakenya mko Kila mahali😂😂👍🏾🇰🇪

In which way do they associate with the Mother Land? I could not see a single thing.

@@turiguliano416 He talked about their music. Theres plenty of Mother Land references in Jamaican music.

@@zaharacreative Ok then please show me a few of the 'plenty of Mother Land references in Jamaican music' from the last 10 years'? There has not been any since around the 70s-80s as Jamaican culture has now become a culture of hyper-sexualisation. That is your biggest export, directly and indirectly, the consumption and output of mere sex. As when a society loses its spiritual centre, sex is always the spiritual outlet. A cultures like Jamaica's that become over-sexualised, without the constraints of chastity and marriage always self-destruct within 3 generations, and stop producing things that reform themselves and the world for its benefits, such as art, science and philosophy (which Jamaica used to give to the world). And then when philosophies are bankrupt men and women turn to lust in share bordem and discontent, trying to find in it some stimulus and fulfilment from the void and gap open in their culture and hearts.

We celebrate life in Jamaica - births, in between, and deaths. We are placed on this earth as a gift, so be grateful, and give thanks.

We Jamaicans Spice up Everything. That's why we so happy

@@wassup9769 In spite of everything we Jamaican it’s cool runnings.one love!

Child even when we have something the cry about it's one whole vibes.🤣🤣🤣

Christian and poor religious beliefs

Facts, He Will Forever Be Respected 🇯🇲

Explain lol

Watch his videos here, and your have your explanation

@@culturemotived2190 for one we are the third most liked ppl on earth 🌍 don’t take my word for it thou ask google

@@terrainemorrison110 i dont agree. I think jamaicans just think so highly of themselves yall thinkin are the 3rd most liked 😂. But anyways, Who's the first 2 then?

@@MM-gp9mb hey it’s ok not agree with but why should we think otherwise I mean we’re a small speck in the Caribbean ocean and we have such a huge impact on the world just to put a few names out there bob marley usain bolt Marcia Griffith’s that sings electric boogie woogie (excuse mi spelling) at all every wedding 👰

Ah true!! 🤣🤣

Damn Lmfaoo

Tommy, may not have had time to do his research. The name Levy is common in jamaica. It stems from the Spanish and portguese Jews, who have been in jamaica for centuries. Similarly Chinese, East indians and Syrian/Lebanese names can be seen on various businesses throughout jamaica.

Yah true

But this is not Africa lol

@@m.m.4609 lmaooo

This ain’t Africa 😭 you need to keep learning about this subject called geography 🤣🤣.

@@m.m.4609 He didn't say this was Africa, most of Tommy's videos are in Africa though.

@@blususpect OP never said this was Africa, am I missing something ?

And ill be rolling one up for it, enjoy

Need to come I show u around

Jamaica makes my best home after Africa.

We actually have a traditional funeral service in the church

@@skskipper2370 I already knew that, just did not ever see this type of celebration of life. One love SK

@@skskipper2370 Jamaican s do that too.

Aaayyyy I’m from Tampa bay to. Polk county

@@Tampafan33 much love Brandon would love to link up sometime! My best friend is in NPR I’m in Saint Pete- Would love to have you over for an event sometime, We throw parties etc.! Hope you’re doing well.

Jamaica is technically apart of north America, the part which Jamaica is situated in the Caribbean is closer to North America

@Ade Jollof is Haiti North America ?

Speak yourself and your North American community

Blacks in the Southern United States have similar gatherings and a sense of community just like this. Overall this is a black or African thing

@WILLIAM GREY No, it is Caribbean and apart of the Americas which is a region, its not North America

Africa is our homeland, that's where our ancestors came from so of course these two countries are similar 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 I'd love to visit Africa some day for the experience too

Suggest islands/countries he should visit. I assume he’ll visit more of the Caribbean when he can. It’s a beautiful region of the world.

Yes never go mexico and Porto Rico maybe visit not to live as black beauty an king

@@kaydenpat would say Big island/Molokai Hawaii and to stay away from the tourist areas but honestly we’re kinda boring compared to other island nations we’ve been too Americanized mainly by Oahu. if I go to Oahu I feel like I’m in a smaller California but if you go to rural areas here in Hawaii there’s definitely a very unique vibe to it even though most of it’s been gentrified.

@@bigshrimp6458 Hawaii was lovely when I visited on a work trip but very expensive. It was very beautiful.

After people go Jamaica they don’t wanna go nowhere else 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲❤️

Greetings from Ireland, ye are very nice people.

What culture? Used to be culture in 70s now its just drinking and music and sex.

He was going to buy a bottle to be shared. That guy was already ‘under him wata’. Drunk

@@britinnit2115 hahahahaha hahahahaha! YES! 💯

That bottle would've sent him down the river, one cup only

@@barryboyce7718 yes sir 👍🏼

U need to come here

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9S2ScdfqWOk.html

No. There are many that don't smoke weed.

You've never seen anything on Haiti yet then...

No

Swr brother even the burial too

These were slaves taken from the western part of Africa

I was going to say the same.

My neighbors is growing up as a kid in Florida were Jamaican, I’m still close with their son to this day. They were the absolute best people! I didn’t have the best home life and they took care of me like I was there own. Ackee and Saltfish, oxtails and cabbage, curry goat with rice and peas and jerk chicken and rice were on the regular rotation. So much better than eating oatmeal for dinner.

That's the first thing I noticed is how jamaicans are very like Nigerians especially Yoruba and Igbo , in every thing !!

Real thing bro 💯 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Real talk 😂🇯🇲

Lol been getting my mates in Ireland drunk on the W&N ☘️🇯🇲

Yes love ray and his nephew- my favourite people 😆

🤣😂🤣😂🤣...TRUE

It warms my heart to hear you say that. Sending you love and positive vibes from a Jamaican living in New York❤️

That man was drunk af.🤣🤣🤣

Lol rum head

He’s the only one not being very welcoming. You can tell the others aren’t huge fans of him either at least not in that condition.

Typical drunkard talk. Lol

That's is rumhead talk, he's drunk

Speak for yourself fool. You stupid ninjas invite everybody to to the "Cookout" once they smile at you and friend you up. Y'all 🤡

Jamaica is a mixed nation

That last part basically "you not understand what's going on" ? Genuinely curious

No. This is the opposite way to mourn, and how all manking have done for millions of years. It's not the biblical way, its not the prophet way, its not the godly way. So it's wrong. Just an excuse to drink and party, and have sex, which is the whole religion of Jamica, the way and meaning of life now for your people. Its sad.

I know the frustration feeling. After the first video, i could not wait for this on of the grave digging. Great video

Too much herbs 🥴🥳🤣🥴👽
