Life is very hard for most of the Caribbean people who face grinding poverty as a result of extremely high unemployment rates together with the ever rising costs of educating children, utilities (water/sewer and electricity), food costs, transportation, etc.

A movie came out a couple of years ago titled “Redemption in Paradise’ filmed mostly in Antigua (doubling as the mythical island of Paradise) with mainly Jamaican actors & crew which tackles the problems of crime, gangs and corruption. I haven’t seen the movie as cannot find it online to buy, but will try to locate when next in JA.

Here is the movie soundtrack featuring Tarrus Riley, Macka Diamond, Duane Stephenson, Lady G and Barbee;
