About DJ EEyo & Blazin’ Reggae Vibes
"Let your unbreakable spirit shine through adversity, like a bright star in the night. Even in the darkest times, light cannot be dimmed."
I am DJ EEyo, the creator of Blazin’ Reggae Vibes, and my journey into reggae began in 1979. Up until that time, I mostly vibed with soul and R&B, the sounds that carried me from childhood into adulthood. Reggae was unknown to me—until it wasn’t.
I was born in a rural cotton-picking town in Rule, Texas, and later moved with my mother to Fort Worth. But it was in Albuquerque, New Mexico, that my path shifted. The first time I saw dreadlocks, I felt as if I had encountered a holy man. The presence, the energy—it was different, powerful. Albuquerque was becoming a hub where Rastas passed through regularly, and a reggae and Rastafari community was rising. I found myself drawn into the movement, embracing its message of unity, consciousness, and upliftment.
Through the efforts of a vibrant community, a proposal for a reggae program was submitted to KUNM, the University of New Mexico's public radio station, and in 1982, the Iyah Music Show was born. Every Friday at 1 PM, 90.1 FM (later changed to 89.9 FM) became a portal for roots, culture, and conscious vibrations, spreading reggae’s message far and wide. Over the years, hosts came and went, but the spirit of reggae remained strong.
Though I am now retired from public radio, reggae’s fire still burns within me. In 2017, I created Blazin’ Reggae Vibes to continue the mission—spreading conscious and uplifting reggae from the past to the present. This platform is a place to chant up positive vibrations, share music, graphics, and videos, and inspire through the sounds of freedom and unity.
With so much happening in the world, reggae reminds us to stay cool and calm, to move with purpose, and to uplift each other on this journey.
