So your claims are Bahamians don't have any Folksongs.
Yanks were involved in their creation.
It was only the Bay Street Elite who had access to the John B.
Tourist Narrative.
The support of the development board promoting music occured during the height of Calypso music in the 30's to 50's. All the songs we talking about predates the 30's.

Interesting also that Charles Lofthouse copyrighted Peas n Rice in 1931, not that he created the song, but he may have put his own twist on it.

As I would point out again, We have evidence from Amelia Defries in 1916 stating that Black Bahamians had bands playing their own natively composed songs.

Earliest mention of the song is 1921, lofthouse copyrighted 10 years later.
