This song “Dominique Sé Number One”, written and performed by Ras Mo Moses, is a call to Dominicans to be proud of and celebrate the Commonwealth of Dominica, dubbed The Nature island of the Caribbean. Along with promoting the kind hospitality and culinary delights.
Highlighting the communities, historic and scenic sites, beautiful scenery and volcanic and aquatic attributes. Via names of these places and catchphrases the song reflects the linguistic heritage of the island by delving into these languages; Kalinago, French Creole, Kokoy, French and English
Verses feature freedom fighters from Kalinago warriors to maroon chiefs reminding us of the historical struggles of the people. It climaxes with a message of hope and optimism for the island nation’s future.
The up-tempo beat rooted in the ancient Ancestral Creole masquerade rhythms with the melodies of contemporary youth-driven music and Ras Mo’s unique brand of performance poetry.
