Every now and then, Weltbeat host and selector Jean Trouillet decides to shake things up a bit and air a Globalwize special, by picking a certain theme for his two-hour broadcast. After his "Dubwize Special" with German author, journalist, sound engineer, producer and keynote speaker Helmut Philipps back in December 2022 for show #414 and his "Mali Special" a few weeks ago for show #418, he recently recorded another special, strutting the Rastafarian colours of green, yellow and red. His "Globalwize Radioshow #420" is a special show emphasizing women in reggae, recorded alongside studio guest Jacek Szafir aka Jack Sapphire (of Reggae Against Politricks fame).

The two-hour show includes extraordinary contributions by the likes of multilingual Persian Swedish fusion, world pop and alternative music band Abjeez (see video below), Polish vocal duo I Grades, German DJ, music producer, writer and lecturer Hans Nieswandt, Zimbabwean artist Nhazi Tafara, Kala Jula (aka Vincent Zanetti and Samba Diabaté) with Benin's Gangbé Brass Band and Fama Diabaté on a tribute to Malian great Kassé Mady Diabaté, Gambian Jola scholar and musician Daniel Laemouahuma Jatta, Senegalese band Esukolaa, the London-based Dur-Dur Band International of Mogadishu fame, Ghanaian Frafra gospel artist Alogte Oho & His Sounds of Joy, French reggae singer Mo'Kalamity, world renowned Canadian singer and songwriter Nelly Furtado, Jamaican recording artist Tanya Stephens, London based vocalist Linda Carriere (Loose Ends), Jamaican singer Judy Mowatt, a certain Amy Winehouse, the one-and-only Grace Jones alongside Sly & Robbie and British reggae outfit Abacush.
