“Jersey has had many people tell the story of our culture, its time for the story to be told by a dancer that actually lived the culture that has been talked about and exploited. Its time for Jersey to finally get the credit for once.” – Anthony “Solo” Harris<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kamille King: <\/strong>So, the first question is this: What is Jersey Club music and dance?<\/p>\n

Anthony \u201cSolo\u201d Harris:<\/strong>\u00a0There are so many different meanings. It means a lot to different generations. Jersey has always been Jersey. There has always been a culture in Jersey for music and dance that goes back to the 70\u2019s and even the 60\u2019s with the whole jazz movement. In the 80\u2019s, however, Jersey had some of the best clubs, like Zanzibar, Sensations, and a whole bunch of other spots that people could research. So, it was like a hub, a mecca where artists and music were coming through from all different types of places and backgrounds<\/p>\n
