  • VI people sound like guyanese and trinidadian. Thats what i thought before yall introduced yall self.

  • I get tired of people asking me if I'm from Jamaica. Saint Vincent born and raised. Love this

  • One time 4 da VI. Rock City Massive.... *West!!*

  • Big up the Virgin Island's my family from there.. Creque Family big up^

  • Big Up Deh Caribbean. Let deh world know. Love Caribbean People. VI 4 LIFE. Done Know Rep Deh VI Til I Die.

  • Also, as I am a born Cruzian, I can honestly say a Cruzian accent is different from a Thomian accent. Not too different, but different. Also, growing up in a mostly Lucian household, we also speak creole (or we just call it patois). @ItzStillaMyth is right about everyone who speaks creole is not Haitian or from Haiti.

  • @afroboy18 I hear it all the time too and I've only been here for like a year!! At some point I just started asking, "So what am I then? White?" People here just think black is used to describe African Americans.

  • I'm African-American/creole. I speak Spanish. My husband is from La Plaine, Dominica. When he was 14, he moved to St. Thomas, V.I. before he came to Houston at 26. So his accent is a mix of two islands, but he sounds more thomian. People gotta be schupid to think that all west indians are from Jamaica. We've been married 3 yrs and I understand everything he says. My fam and friends need a translator though. I find myself naturally speaking like him. 340 reppin'! Yuh dun kno.

  • Rock city reppin fo lyfee!!!

  • DCA all day support the VI, NOW IN Afghanistan....ISLAND SIDE FOREVER
