We return to our original party station, the Ethiopian run Oasis. Our models will not only convince you to buy a shirt, but they’ll also show you how to wine. We’re switching it up a bit to bring two famous bay area reggae/hip-hop DJs; Namane of Local 1200 and Lenoir alongside Complex of King Solomon. As you can imagine we’ve got all of the new soca and dancehall, so get ready to party. Congrats to KPFA and the MDLineup winners.


We’ve been busy, but are trying to improve jouvay.com for your browsing pleasure. Complex returned to NY and Boston before heading to Anaheim for the National Society of Black Engineers Nationals where “Hot And Groovy” played at a Flag Party. Patricia has organized a whole new line of hot shirts which are available online and she’s trying hard to find models for next year’s jouvay.com calendar. Maya’s managed to survive the intense partying in Trinidad and the insane violence in Guyana. We made a roadtrip to LA and caught up with hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons (for a brief moment) and Caribbean promoters like Joyce Productions, GT International and Big Julian.
