This deep-dive into the history of Caribbean music explores the hidden war between the state and the artists who defined a region. From the colonial-era radio bans in 1960s Jamaica to the modern surveillance of drill and trap artists, we examine how governments have systematically used censorship, police intimidation, and legal warfare to silence the voice of the streets.
