This week on The Corie Sheppard Podcast, we sit down with Chromatics — rapper, radio host, and founder of OUR Radio — to talk about music, entrepreneurship, and the courage to carve your own path.
From the cultural shockwaves of Carnival Rap Up to the reflective storytelling of Tobago Chokey, Chromatics shares how he built his career on authenticity and adaptability. He opens up about the dream of performing on the Skinner Park and Dimanche Gras stages, the lessons learned in timing and stagecraft, and why slowing down an acoustic version gave his music new life.
We also dive into the origin story of OUR Radio: how he walked away from traditional stations, built his own platform during the pandemic, and created a space dedicated to local artists across genres. At the heart of it all is his philosophy of “making passion profitable” — a lesson for anyone chasing a vision against the odds.
This is a conversation about legacy, culture, and entrepreneurship in Trinidad & Tobago’s music scene.
