Re: Caribbean/Latin Music
Vari: Hey there was another remix they did there of Akon, it's alright.
I forgot all about that song!

Heh. Funny thing is I totally missed where it said the location at the beginning. I don't watch the video; I just like the song.
I dunno.
Jay Sean might be one of those Caribbean desis?
I like the tune and how it's mixed with Punjabi. Catchy.

There was a Puerto Rican flag is all.
This is what comes to mind for me when I think of Hindi/Punjabi (I don't know!) combined with Latin. I think it's a latin song anyway, we always sang it at the futból games hahah.

Yeah, at the beginning, it says the location is Puerto Rico and it has the flag. At 2-3-4 seconds.
Yeah, I know that Hot Hot Hot song too (the original and from the movie), but that's not the best example.  There is so much Punjabi music that has a Caribbean touch nowadays, a lot of it from the UK.

Re: Caribbean/Latin Music
That's not Caribbean, that's like... R&B/Hip Hop type stuff. I think I saw Anderson in there though...

Re: Caribbean/Latin Music
It's totally Caribbean 'cause we're all brown, okay? You're just jealous 'cause you're white.
Okay, but my first example totally was.
And Anderson is just haraam like that.

Whatever.
If my theory about Jay Sean being Caribbean is right, then all of his music is Caribbean music. Ha.
(I have no clue about his background actually; he's probably Punjabi.)

Btw, you never answered my questions.
