ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - Creator, Producer and Host of Zrod’s, popular fm radio show, Paul ‘Gadiethz’ Peart, in an exclusive interview with Virgin Islands News Online, stated that the Morning Ride Show, after six weeks of being absent for a well needed vacation, will now bring a new perspective to the show. “The show is fully reloaded.”

One new initiative, this news site had the privilege of discussing with Mr. Peart , is a new segment that will be added to the show called “Sound bites”, that will be introduced on September 24, 2012. 

According the host, at 8:15 every morning, the segment will be in effect, to discuss with the people, topics that not only relate primarily to the Virgin Islands, but with a more regional and international focus. 

“We try to find something that can be on a larger level, that really impacts all of us, regionally and internationally, not just pertaining to the Virgin Islands, but sound bites will be something that if you drop it in the water, there will be a ripple, not only in the VI but regionally, and that’s where I’m trying to put it.” 

He said in the past, the Morning Ride show was focused on ‘on the ground’ issues, but is now taking the next step. 

“The show is geared and aiming for more… each time we take a seasonal break we always come back with more incentives for the listeners and our advertisers.” 

Gadiethz stated that another initiative adopted for the show and to boost its credibility, is the efforts to have artists (globally) interact with the show. He added “we’ve been trying to affiliate our self where, the morning ride show is the pioneer doing outside broadcasts and local broadcasts with entertainers, because we are trying to fuse the market into one big industry and the Virgin Islands does have their fair share of talent.” 

He disclosed that he is currently in contact with some of the region’s best DJs, so in the event of businesses wanting a full package of entertainment and advertisements, they can get the best. 

Gadiethz further related that the Morning Ride Show is a show that gets its listeners up to an interactive level, a conscious level “the morning ride show tends to be out the box, and that’s why the creative minds out there will take full 100% go with us.” 

In this new season, he continued, the show is equipped with new music, new ‘drops’… “The thing is just outside the box right now and the identity of the morning ride show has been placed in a good corner and we want to withstand that brand, and be the voice of the people. The morning ride show is the voice of the voiceless.” 

He told this news site, that the show that has been in existence for the last 4 years every morning from Monday to Friday 7am-10am on Zrod, and it is a show that is not targeted to any specific group or class of people , it’s a show that speaks the truth and [discusses] what the people want to hear. 

“It is a straight forward show, it carries no barriers, no boundaries, no class, no creed, it doesn’t mind if you’re with any specific party, any specific religion, nothing at all that is out there, is a boundary for the Morning Ride show, and that’s the common denominator that we hold to the people.” 

Peart mentioned that although he returned to the show, on Monday, he already saw some ‘on the street’ topics, that the show will debate on; one being the verdict that was passed down on local Calypsonian Sistah Joyce of $40,000, after she was allegedly found with an uncontrolled drug. 

“Regardless, people create wickeder crimes in the Virgin Islands and I don’t see how the system going to uphold $40,000 for marijuana, I think they should give her 40,000 to help finish her house for her kids… equal rights and justice, das wa we dey pon.” 

He said the show will try to get in contact with Sistah Joyce or any members of her legal team to see how best they can “blow it out the water”, because it is a big injustice that took place.

    When I think of the most annoying local radio "personalities" in the BVI they include Gadeitz, Neil, and Bertrum. - If they all came off the air I wouldnt have to listen to St.Croix stations

        Gatheiz look like he want to go live abroad cause he barely talk about what goes on locally. Let's see how much local news he mentions. As for Mr. Melee what is up with those commercials where he makes so many mistakes and doesn't correct them. Chu man. Annoying!!

          Mr. Melee is the worst radio personality I have ever heard, those commercials drives in insane. Have you ever heard him trying to give a commercial for a SALE? Make you don't want to go buy nothing!!! Gadiethz has his moments, sometimes he has good to say but other times he just believe he is Mr. Right and becomes very overbearing!

    This is just a blatent attempt to artifically create an audience. If the master of the fake accent really cared about Sister Joyce he could take his money and talent, donate and organize a benefit for her and her family. To suggest that the govt give her tax dollars shows a clear spce between his ears. Let him keep supporting illegal but popular things and see just how far and how fast the sponsors that he kisses up to will run from him.

    Gadeithz, don't study these haters.
    Who gives a damn where the man is from? Is he good? Not always, but THANK GOD he isn't afraid to ask a few difficult questions and he aint all hidebound by this fear of speaking out.
    The biggest censorship we have in the BVI is fear of going against a supposed BVIslander point of view. Of course it doesn't exist, but everyone trying to sound more ol' time than everyone else instead of embracing the present and the future with thought and intelligence.
    Gadietz is smart enough to question everything, so we should appreciate him for that.

    MISSED YOU GADIETHZ. Morning radio in the BVI is a complete BORE without you. Welcome back man. You are more of a voice for Virgin Islanders than most Virgin Islanders themselves. So don't mind them. You came from Jamaica and are doing what many of us don't have the ambition to do. I have no reason to hate on you for that.

    It is shameful that this person is allowed to reach our children via the airwaves with such poor command of the English language and with a limited vocabulary. Where are our leaders!?
