A Calypso Clapback for the Ages: Don't Judge We - Diana Chapman


We are taking cues from our readers and will create short 'social media' posts for those who just want the basics of a song. Today we feature a song that tells it like it is. What the older generation did, the youth are repeating with some subtle differences. The Calypso is "Don't Judge We" by Diana Chapman. Written by Osei K. Clarke and produced by Joshua Nedd with the engineering done by Hope Rocks Studio, this tune is a Calypso that beckons the people to treat the younger generation as the future, not as a threat. 

Diana Chapman flips the script on generational blame in “Don’t Judge We,” reminding elders that today’s youth aren’t worse—just more visible. With humor, history, and sharp cultural recall, she exposes the hidden flaws of the past, calls out double standards, and urges guidance instead of judgment. The message is simple: every generation wilds out in its own way, so support the youth; don’t shame them.
