From photography to filmmaking to music, Storm Saulter is unbound and has enough talent and imagination to power all ah we into the future. We discuss his vision for "Neo" Kingston, Jamaica in the year 2062 via his musical short for Sean Paul and Sia's "Dynamite." And we talk about what's next re his own lyricism following his 2021 link-up with the forward-thinking Jamaican music collective Equiknoxx. Of course, we do dip into history and politics in our conversation, but all in service of powering into the future. Listen and imagine. This is Jamaican futurism.
