UNDERSTANDING THE LEGACY
CaribStar Radio stands on the shoulders of a broadcasting giant, Irie Jam Radio, a beacon of Caribbean culture and music for over three decades. Founded by visionary leaders in the Caribbean community, Irie Jam Radio began as a humble yet passionate project in New York City, aimed at connecting Jamaican expatriates with the rhythmic heart of their homeland. Under the guidance of its founders, including the esteemed Bobby Clarke, Irie Jam Radio blossomed into a beloved institution, renowned for its authentic Reggae beats and insightful coverage of Caribbean news and culture. For thirty years, it served not just as a radio station, but as a cultural lifeline for the Caribbean diaspora, fostering a sense of community and pride among its listeners.
Embracing this rich legacy, CaribStar Radio emerges as a visionary expansion of this foundational mission. Bobby, along with his dedicated team, recognized the evolving landscape of media consumption and the diverse tapestry of the Caribbean’s musical heritage. With the launch of CaribStar Radio, they sought to transcend the boundaries of traditional radio, creating a digital platform that connects the entire Caribbean diaspora. This new venture is not just a continuation of a legacy; it’s an evolution, broadening its scope to include a wider array of Caribbean music genres like Reggae, Dancehall, Soca, Kompa, and more, and to bring news, entertainment, and sports from across the Caribbean region. CaribStar Radio is a testament to the unifying power of music and culture, bridging islands and generations, and continuing to be a beacon for Caribbean voices and stories in the digital age.
