Way back in the day, going back even a hundred years or so, American blacks (FBAs) weren't going to the islands that much. The islands were coming to Florida to do seasonal work (farm work) and going back. Not sure but I think my pops grandfather maybe did that in Florida. So I would imagine, logically, they picked up the music, other things and brought it back. Because the traffic was one way.
