Louisiana’s Cajun Nation is among the most unusual areas of the USA. It is formally known as Acadiana, after the French-speaking Acadians who settled there after being exiled from Canada by the British within the 18th century.
Our month-to-month sequence, Acadiana Music Showcase, is produced by our associates at Lafayette, La., affiliate station KRVS, and it explores this vibrant cultural melting pot by way of music.
At this time, we’re placing the highlight on Good Prblms. This hip-hop collective (G-Reg, Jinaki, Maudixi and Rick Valentino) consists of scholars and alumni from the College of Louisiana, Lafayette. They met by way of the college’s personal music label, RAGIN’ Data. In the previous few years, Good Prblms have made inroads within the metropolis’s zydeco-heavy scene, taking part in exhibits domestically and regionally, and even opening for Tank and the Bangas in New Orleans.
