Disc Jock Redeem Resumes Spreading A “Positive Vibration”

Twenty-year radio veteran Disc Jock Redeem, also referred to as the Revolutionary Love Jock, is back to spreading “Positive Vibration” at his new home, BoBo 89.1 FM in the Cayman Islands. The program, which airs on Saturdays at 6:00 p.m. local time, is carefully crafted for, and geared towards anyone seeking an engaging radio show that will educate and entertain listeners.

Disc Jock Redeem is a household name in Jamaica media. He has presented on Sun City 104 Radio, Bess 100 FM, Stylz 96.3 FM, and Roots 96.1 FM, as well as on several online radio stations. However, prior to relocating to the Cayman Islands he took a brief hiatus from broadcasting to focus on his other passion, writing. He has co-authored several books and is equally recognized and celebrated as an author.

Nevertheless, after being told by several associates in media and music, past listeners, and those near and dear to him, that his presence on the airwaves was missed, he decided to make a return with the program “Positive Vibration” in the beautiful Grand Cayman Islands, where he now resides.

“Positive Vibration” provides listeners with an array of music curated in four (4) segments. The first, “Start on a Positive Note,” sets the tone for the show by playing songs with deep, meaningful messages that provoke listeners to take the time to think about what is being presented. The second feature is “Muzikal Copy Cat.” This is a unique segment that sheds light on songs that have gained popularity by borrowing melodies, lyrics, or instrumentals from other songs. The third section is “DJR Unleash.” This is a double impact! The first part introduces listeners to unfamiliar songs by aspiring or established artists while the second part presents a curated selection of positive songs in a chart format. And the final segment is “Good Vibration (Positive Expression).” Here we celebrate selected artists who were granted the gift of life during the time leading up to the presentation by sharing specific songs they’ve done.

“Positive Vibration” is a program for all ages. It blends entertainment with information in a captivating manner. Those who miss the broadcast on Saturdays at 6:00 p.m. (CST) on BoBo 89.1 FM in the Cayman Islands, can catch the rebroadcast on Movements I Radio in Texas on Sundays at 1:00 p.m. (CST), and Tuesdays at 4:00 p.m. (CST) and 10:00 p.m. (UK time) on One Harmony Radio, which simulcasts with up to 15 other radio stations at any given time.
