I love Caribbean music as well (I'm from there). What Caribbean artists do you like?
A lot of the music I listen to is foreign language. It's so strange how the mind works. You might not be able to understand the language, but music is universal and can be appreciated in any language.

I usually listen Korean, Chinese music, and I don't understand what they sing. But I like their rythm. :D
