Behind the bars of Cameroon’s notorious Bell prison, inmates have built a vibrant underground world — complete with taxis, markets, and even a music label. Jail Time Records, founded in 2018 by former inmate Steve Happi, turns prison walls into a creative sanctuary, producing viral music videos and an award-winning documentary that captures raw, powerful stories of survival and hope. From rappers like Stone, a former soldier reflecting on his past, to global fanbases and even a studio in Burkina Faso, this project proves that art can be a lifeline — offering purpose, connection, and a lantern for a brighter future, even in the darkest corners of incarceration.
