Dominican Diaspora is a social network set up for people who live in the Commonwealth of Dominica as well as those of us born into the diaspora because our parents moved to different parts of the world. Everyone has the ability to upload music and sometimes I visit specific pages on there so I can listen to the music they have included.
Here are my top 10 best sounds on Dominican Diaspora profiles:
(Note : you need to be logged in to see these profiles)
Number One : Sylvia Smith
One in a million/come back to bed, Earth Wind & Fire, You Love – Bushman – love it

Number Two : Natasha Henderson
The heart and soul of Dominican Diaspora and from musical roots too so it was a tough call whether to make Natasha second or first but Sylvia had tunes that reminded me of my English black roots so won…!

I had no idea what Zouk music was before DD but Natasha has some great calypso/zouk sounds… trendsetter is my favourite and I shared that one on my profile! I lost count how many times I have played that tune now
Number Three : Cameron Pierre
Okay so he is a professional musician but I have loved his music since ‘discovering’ him on DD, one of the great things about the network is the music I discovered for myself since it started.

Number Four: Rodney Ross
Mr Manje Lokal cook and music man…
