What is the BoomTribe Radio Show?
The BoomTribe Caribbean Top 10 is a one hour segment of pure energy and entertainment derived from the three hour BoomTribe Radio Show featured on Mix 96 fm in Barbados. The full length show has enjoyed much success, including being the number one show in its time slot in Barbados. This is in part attributed to the fun personalities of the BoomTribe DJs, as well as the show's highlight which is the BoomTribe Caribbean Top 10 charts. If Caribbean culture, music and entertainment are important to you, then you absolutely must listen to the BoomTribe Caribbean Top 10…the radio show that continues to unite Caribbean Culture.
The BoomTribe Caribbean Top 10 is derived from a weighted formula which compiles the Caribbean music hits from Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia, UK, Toronto and the USA. Years in development, this combination has proven to provide an accurate reflection of what is happening with Caribbean music within the region and beyond. The music selected for the charts has to be of Caribbean origin, however artists outside of the region can also be considered for the charts, provided their music can easily classified to be of a Caribbean genre such as calypso, soca, reggae, dancehall, zouke etc.

What Makes our Charts Different?
The BoomTribe Caribbean Top 10 is a well-rounded show and aims to integrate the Caribbean through music. The show's multiple personalities and great music give us a winning combination.
Most charts in the market only speak to one specific genre. Our chart, however, is a combination of music that is popular not only across the Caribbean but worldwide as well. If you are from the Caribbean then you would have heard the songs featured on the charts as a popular song in your respective island.
During the chart's Countdown, we also feature a hit from the past and a hit for the future in the 'Remember Dis!' and 'Watch Out" segments respectively. The charts will periodically feature special guest artists as well as special remixes and DJ mix sessions from other BoomTribe DJs such as Hoodini and Dirkmouse, who is the three-time Heineken Green synergy champion of Barbados.
