What is the new slang on the road, and what does it mean?
O.K. I went to the Island recently and I was able to pick a few slangs.
Da one yah gawn!
Elephant man uses it in his song "run dem weh"

To be honest there are many slangs in this song.
Another one I heard was Sell Off!
The slangs mean the same thing. What is the meaning? They both mean this is cool or of high quality or rating.
This blog was created to preserve a little part of Jamaica's culture. Too many jokes and interesting things about the Island get forgotten just because there wasn't an archive of them. This blog allows us to archive all these jokes and interesting things so that they will never be forgotten. If it was interesting to you please take the time to record it here. I will gather what I can, but I need all the help I can get. Also as a favor to me, please like, follow, and support my advertisers.
