Willie T-an island in and of itself! I am not really sure which island it is a part of.

Ziggy? Damian??? Ziggy who???
Nope...not that popular. The popular ones are the Dancehall DJ's. But I don't really listen to the stuff so mayhap I'm not the best person to answer

Geez Louise!! You folks should all write a book! And here I was thinking that if you've been to one Caribbean island you've been to them all!

Funny enough I live in the Caribbean and have never really had the urge to go traveling within it...

Where's Tiverton???

TO JAGIRL - don't get too impressed. I was on Necker Island for a tour of the facilities a number of years ago - did not stay overnight - memory is hazy but I don't think Branson owned it at that time but nonetheless it was a truly remarkable resort.
