Jamaican Living In Haiti 

Been with a Haitian for 14year married for 8years i am a jamaican love my husband so much they got good people there love my Haitian family

Significant number of Jamaicans don't smoke,curse, nor drink, my brother . It's a narrative the world has about us.African tigress showed us a lot of beautiful Haiti . Love the interview

Jamaican used to go to Haiti 🇭🇹 to buy goods and have business in Haiti 🇭🇹 before the chaos

Big up to my Jamaicans brothers and sisters. we are one family 🇭🇹🇯🇲

Haitians are wonderful island people. Jamaicans and Haitians share a close history. Jam-Hatian family here.

That is why we must tell our own stories. Love every bit of this interview . Big up mama Haiti 🇭🇹🇯🇲

As a Canadian-Haitian married to a Jamaican and we also live in Jamaica a few months out the year, I absolutely love this interview and love the information given, I'll will still put in some quick correction, so haitians definitely do not fry everything, far from it, one of many parts of the cuisine, is called Fritay and it's different meats mainly pork and goat, fried plantain, fritters etc. it was popularized as street food back in the days and is served on special occasions, but not eaten in most household on a daily or regular basis, we mostly eat different rice and peas, stewed vegetables and meat, stewed peas, meat in sauce etc. Also Haiti is actually close to 14 mil unofficially, but 12 mil recorded, making it the most populous island in the Caribbean, the diversity of the cuisine from the different regions vary greatly, in terms of religion even if voodooism is prevelent, it is not anywhere near 50%, the best breakdown would be about 60% catholic, about 30% any protestant denominations and 10 to 20% voodooism, with some being catholic at the same time. Must add francique mango is considered one of the highest quality mango in world 🙂loll, all jokes aside, I really enjoyed this interview and cuddos on your creole,

Jam-Haitian here sameway. Big up yourself Derrick. 🇭🇹🇯🇲 Nou tout se ONE ☝🏾

Very nice show, well for me I was born in Haiti 🇭🇹 my mom is Haitian and Dad is Jamaican, they both met in Cap Haitian while my dad was working on a cruise ship that went into Labadee, after I was born 9 months later my mom wanted to travel by sea to get to the Bahamas my Dad disagreed and suggested to let him bring me to his mother in St Elizabeth and so she agreed that when she got to the Bahamas and settled down he would fly me to where she was, well it was 13 years later my mom laid eyes on me again. They were able to find each other again, she flew down to Jamaica to meet me. Fast forward she then started the process to have me migrate to the US which was granted to me 2 years later, I am proud to be a part of both cultures I visit both countries from time to time. I speak Creole and chat Patwa my kids ask me if I don’t get confused with the languages.

The media is something else, one Caribbean 💚💚✅🇯🇲

You know this is the first time that I hear a real Jamaican talk so kind and seems to have great understanding about life in general . Brother you are a real true person. A lot of respect to you 👍

Wow this is wonderful A lot of Jamaicans diss Haitians but Haiti is a place like no other. Beautiful country. I'm also a Jamaican married to a Haitian Haitians are very affectionate people they greet you with kisses on both cheeks. It's disheartening to see the gang problem.

The Kenyan Vlogger, African Tigress, showed us the beautiful side of Haiti including Port au Prince. The media loves to show the bad parts of Black countries so it's best to ignore them and keep an open mind.

Wonderful interview. He was full of vibes for sure!!! I was in haiti for over 3 weeks 5 yrs ago, and the food and the ice cream were delicious!! I was in the city... very vibrant, and the people were wonderful. Haiti is a vibe! I am jamaican, btw😊🇯🇲

Haiti is truly a free country...my country ❤

This was a nice interview. I took few of my Jamaican friends to Haiti for a week and they were shocked to know Haiti is so beautiful, and they all enjoyed the trip.

I am a computer Engineer, Journalist, and I am Haitian. Thank you so much guys.

Haiti 🇭🇹 for ever, love my country!❤

I had Jamaican neighbors in the 80s and 90s in Haiti. They had a farm where we used to go buy chicken, lamb, etc. Since then I've dreamed of visiting Jamaica. Still planning on it.

" Jam-Haitian " good one... love it

Big up yute... Haiti is a very nice place...big up the Petionville crowd and big up Olivier mi good friend dat. French style that...you went in Carnival time...party central that...belle femme galore

Big up Derrick for this interview. I almost forgot to how amazing of a country we have 😁

I laugh when people talk about Haiti. We have people from everywhere living in Haiti and they're treated like family. Haitians are very welcoming, they love people. You heard how dominicains treat Haitians living in Dominican Republic, Dominicans, Cubans ect living in Haiti they love Haiti and the people, there's no difference, they're living like families in Haiti.

WOW! 😃 What a small world. I personally know the Haitian guy he mentioned in the video. In the early 80s, we had KFC in Haiti. It was the best KFC I've ever had. It was better than all the KFC meals I've had in the US. However, I haven't had Jamaican nor Indian KFC yet.

Wonderful JamHaitian! I am a Haitian living in Jamaica for 9 yrs. I am living in Clarendon. Actually, Haitians don't fry everything, all depends in the family you're living with. If you haven't yet, ask your wife to prepare for you sòs kabrit, legim, bouyon tèt kabrit etc. Make show you say hi to me when you pass by Jamaica 🇯🇲 the land we love.

I am so glad you have told the world about Haiti in such depth. JAMHatian, love it. My father's neighbours in Florida were Haitian and he was the kindest person ever. Xavier definitely one of the best and I love all your interviews ❤

As a Jamaican who has been associated with this Beautiful country since 1978, I truly appreciated this interview, my first born is Haitian

Haitians are one of the nicest people, they are hardworking and ambitious. What does a real Haitian look like? They are mixed like any other island. They have some of the most beautiful people. Traveling is a great learning experience.

I’m born and raised in Haiti, Jamaica is always in mind can’t wait to visit🙏🏾

Cool interview. Haiti cuisine is known for its stews as well Food is stewed for hours!! 😊

Big up to all my Jamaican brothers and sisters! I am Haitian; but, I love Jamaica so much that I can borrow the term “Jamaitian” to describe myself. 😂

Love seeing this sort of interaction. It’s just disheartening how others are creating division between the two nations. Yet, we have so much in common. Big up my brother! You always welcome my Jam-Haitian! 🙌🏽

I feel like I want to visit Haiti, just & only from this interview.

I am a Jamaican living in Florida but my job takes me all over the world and I go to Haiti a lot. The Haitian people a some of the nicest people I ever met.

This is beautiful. That was a nice interview. Haitians make great sauces. It may be that the people he knows are mostly from Port-au-Prince. Haitians do not fry everything. Haitians from different parts cook differently. He should try Lalo. Lalo is a dish from the Artibonite region. Francis is not the best mango, there is more of it. A few of the best are Corn, Pen Sucre, Jean-Baptiste, and one other whose name I can't remember. Pen Sucre is my favorite. Thank you for showcasing the beautiful side of Haiti.

Correction! Haitians do not fry everything. Yes, we have an array of fried dishes called "fritay" such as fried plantain, dumplings, sweet potato, griyo, etc., that are not consumed daily . Although we do not make curried meats, we do, however, make stewed meats such as stewed chicken, goat, beef, and seafood. Great interview. We love our Jamaicans.

Point that was said, media when people learn them can not trust the media..

Conch can give you some very interesting dreams! Very nice report. RASpect!

I truly enjoyed this interview. Thank you both for a fun and informative interview. Respect.🇯🇲

I’m sorry you don’t get the best Haitian food from your family. We do not fry everything. Haitian foods are not dry foods, we made sauce more often than fried

Thank you for acknowledging our best sites. Nice to have you in the Haitian family 💜

😅😅😊 I watched this episode with a hugh smile on my face, just as many of the other episodes.

Non wonder i' m always proud to be HAITIAN! THANKS BROTHER, WELCOME TO THE FAMILY❤🇭🇹

What a nice and articulate man, very eye opening interview. I thank you very much for that interview,now i see Haiti in a different light , makes me want to visit.

This is one of the best interviews to date.Derick could be a tourism minister for Haiti.He actually changed my perspective about the country.We always see and hear the worst about Haiti.

Enjoyed your nation bro. Haïti and Jamaica is one blood family. I m proud being Haitian and love Jamaica women. Beautiful and very widely open in love

I AM A JAMAICAN BORN AND I BEEN TO HAITI 🇭🇹 SEVEN TIMES !!!!

Big you self Xavier brother. Jamaican. Live all over the world Big up to Haiti 🇭🇹

Surprised Derrick, as a Clarendon native, didn't mention getting a couple Juicy Beef patties whenever he lands in Jamaica. I still cannot wrap my mind around a Jamaican not eating Ackee😲. Now on the Haitian food I'm surprised he didn't mention Legume (a spinach mixed with various meats), Mayi Moulen (turned cornmeal & saltfish stew) and Ragou (Cow Foot). I enjoyed the interview.

Best interview Ive seen from this channel so far for me! Thanks!

Also Haitians come in different shades mixed and so on. You have Mulatos , Arabs, Polish, German and so on. You have areas in Haiti 🇭🇹 where some people skin or shade is like caucasian skin. For example Fon des blanc , Cazale and so on. Although mostly we are dark African. So people shouldn’t have one ☝️ perception on how a Haitian looks like. .

I am Haitian American, and I enjoy the interview. He knows a lot and also has a good understanding of the culture and language.

Great interview, I’m a Trinidadian & I’ve been to Haiti on missionary trips with my church. Haiti is my passion country, I’ve always loved the people, food, music & the language from since I was in my teens🇹🇹❤️🇭🇹🙏🏽🇭🇹

Very good interview, guys! I love it! Derrick, I'll be happy to visit Jamaica. Let's wait for a great occasion.

That’s why it’s important to see things for self and make your own judgement. God didn’t create fear. That’s how we miss a lot of opportunities. Be Free as God’s creation. Haiti 🇭🇹 is beautiful. Trust

Very good video. Thank you for sharing.

Wonderful interview

An Awesome interview... you are representing well❤❤❤❤

This is another great interview Xavier, love it!

As a Jamaican, outside of mama Africa, we hold the Haitians dearest to us , then the trinibadians next 🇯🇲🇭🇹🇹🇹💪🏿

Love the interview, but Haitians do not fry everything! The fried food is called Fritay, but we have our meats in sauces or stewed in vegetables called legumes such as lalo (jute), kaya (spinach like), and many more dishes like bouillon, Tchaka, just like Jamaicans. When things calm down, visit other places like Jeremie, Artibonite to learn the cuisine more. We do not use curry though.

Haiti 🇭🇹 is the mother of freedom !!!

This should be aired on tv stations in Jamaica so that Jamaicans who have issues with Haitians just by hearsay realized that every country including Jamaica have good and bad

Great interview guys.

When Bob Marley died we Haitien mourne Bob Marley we cried and this is the first time we know about mariwana

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience

Excellent interview as usual 👍🏿 🤜🏿 👌🏿 🇭🇹 🇯🇲

This was so enjoyable. He's HILARIOUS🤣 God bless you both!

Good interview. You rep Haití real good. Viewing from Trinidad.

Great interview, me being a haitian we haitian like jamaicans...i have many jamaican friends, i just came from montegobay my jamaican friend took me and my wife around we had a great time...we tried that sorel ginger drink!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥they have the best jerk and ice cream down there..

I just finished watching your show I love it.I am from Haiti,we used movie theaters but because of the violence that been going on all of those theaters have been close.God bless you

The only thing is with food everything comes fried or in sauce in Haiti. The goat can be fried ’taso’ or en sauce, chicken, fish everything they even give you sauce to dip the fried pork ‘grio’. I love all Caribbean food and been to Jamaica! Loved it.

Bon bagay!!! Welcome to Haiti brother.
