Guyanese music on the radio

Guyanese music is a blend of diverse cultural influences, including African, Indian, and European. One of the most popular genres is chutney, which originated in Trinidad and Tobago and combines Bhojpuri and English lyrics with Indian musical instruments and Caribbean rhythms. Another popular genre is soca, which has its roots in calypso and features fast-paced beats and energetic dance moves.

Some of the most popular artists in Guyanese music include Terry Gajraj, who is known as the "King of Guyanese Chutney," and Jumo Primo, who is considered the pioneer of Guyanese soca music. Other notable artists include Roger Hinds, Adrian Dutchin, and Fiona Singh.
