But let us never forget the OG, White Jamaican Dad

Using subtitles for herself but not her dad is hilarious

Jamaica was settled with Irish people and this is part of the accent.

I'm now realizing that Jamaican accent is practically Caribbean Irish.

That is how my mate sounds...6 foot 3,blond, blue eyes,born and raised in Jamaica. The look on peoples faces when he speaks to them like that..but fair play, Jamaicans immediately recognise him as the real deal.

I am no expert, but does the jamaican accent have some origin in irish? I can almost hear some aspects of it in there

Sounds like a mix of Geordie and Irish.

I served in the Canadian Army with a white Jamaican. I thought he was messing around at first but he wasn’t. Born and raised in Jamaica.

I’ve met a white dude from Barbados who sounds just like that

Sounds similar to an Irishman.

he just sounds Irish...

yellowman jam for those interested

Big Irish head on him. I'm Irish, I can tell. Wagwan.

I probably wouldn't have believed this if it wasn't for video.

Bob Marley's father was a white Jamaican

Sounds kinda Coonass. I worked with guys that sound like that in Louisiana

The Irish are endlessly fascinating

Be def Jamaican cause he said don't be putting my name all on the internet n shit 😂

I had a CCD teacher in elementary school who was a white Jamaican. Super old white guy. Really nice and it always blew my mind as a kid lol

Haha I knew a white Jamaican at uni and I’ve been convinced to this day that he was putting the accent on

Funny thing is, sounds like Irish with a slight speech impediment. Wasn’t there a lot of Irish influence on a few Caribbean islands?

The bar has been raised.

SNL taught me that it takes white guys, like, 3 minutes to go native in Jamaica. "Hush now, chile, me tryin' a hear the Good Word!"

I mean tbh I’ve met a bunch of white Jamaicans that’s not that crazy

There's a book sort of about this

@howlinghogan0 I found you white nigger

@Guy_Incadnito @DuncanHardisty me after 2 red stripes

My grandfather talked like that. He was from St. Kitts

White Caribbeans are very common for every island

apparently God does play dice

As a kid I thought this was fake, now I realise it’s real.

Real as fuck for Yellowman
