Pulled from Africa, caught up in the violent and absurd logic of triangular trade. Slaves were forced to America, the Caribbean and Europe, where many descendants have since become famous writers, poets, leaders, athletes and of course, musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracks: M t w Byen \/ Arawak \u0026amp; Karayb \/ Natibel \/ Kontak \/ Dlo Pou Viv \/ Yo Vini Pou Dans \/ S Tan Nou \/ J’ai Travers La Mer \/ F Kontiny Goum\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HEAVENLY SWEETNESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36542282825884,"sku":"HS206VL","price":19.87,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/EDMONYKRATER-J_AITRAVERSLAMER.jpg?v=1603126454","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/edmony-krater-j-ai-travers-la-mer-lp","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
