J’Ouvert is far more than a paint-and-powder street party. Its origins trace back to the colonial era in Trinidad, where enslaved Africans used pre-dawn rituals of mud, masquerade, and music to resist oppression and preserve their culture. Today, J’Ouvert symbolizes equality, freedom, and resilience, uniting communities in celebration while keeping alive the memory of struggle and liberation. To dismiss it as mere chaos is to ignore its powerful history and meaning.

Veteran dancehall legend Major Mackerel—born Garfield Dixon—has endured more than most. Famed in the 1980s for high-pitched yelps and hallmark hits like “Pretty Looks Done”, “Cow Cod”, and “Don Man”, he has faced violence, health crises, and loss, yet his voice remains unbroken. After surviving an assault with a samurai sword nearly a decade ago and undergoing the amputation of part of his leg following a health battle, he was hospitalized again, this time grappling with two strokes in back to back. Now, as community benefit events mobilize to help, his resilience and musical spirit continue to inspire, broadcasting a message of survival across generations. @majormackerel #majormackerel

Jesse Royal, the Grammy-nominated Jamaican reggae star, has emerged alive and determined after surviving a serious vehicle accident—though the full extent of his injuries remains undisclosed, the artist assures fans he’s “ok” and pressing ahead with a new album release. Royal was slated to join a lineup of reggae greats, including Buju Banton for an Atlantic City show and Beres Hammond in New York, and remains committed to honoring those performances despite the setback.
