Coming from a family of noteworthy reggae musicians, Rochelle Bradshaw is keeping the vibe alive while making her own waves in both music and cannabis. Her powerful voice carries the soul and wisdom of her roots.
She has shared the stage with some of the greats in reggae and has contributed to 2 grammy winning albums. “I’ve been so blessed to have had the opportunity and pleasure of recording and touring with musical icons and favorites like Stephen Marley, The Original Wailers, Rebelution, Burning Spear, and Slightly Stoopid.”

Residing in Arkansas, a medical marijuana state, Rochelle started working as a budtender at The Source dispensary in 2021, where her genuine love for both cannabis and music made her a natural fit. Her authentic personality and passion for the plant quickly led to her and then marketing manager, Amanda Strickland (now CEO), to develop the Roots & Reefer podcast with co-host Wendy Love-Edge in 2023. Then in 2024 Rochelle became the dispensary's Brand Ambassador. 

Now she's taken things to the next level with her own product lines at The Source—Island Time and Hi Tide—dropping custom edibles and vapes that bring that island flavor to Arkansas.

Whether she's on stage with her band, Rochelle Bradshaw and Hypnotion, dropping reggae beats or connecting with the cannabis community, she's blazing trails and inspiring others while staying true to her authentic self. Creating her own legacy by bringing together the worlds of reggae and cannabis in Arkansas.

"Island girl, round the world, on Island Time feel the vibes, it's so nice," she sings in her upcoming single Island Girl, which she states she was inspired to write after dropping the gummies Island Time by The Source Apothecary and inspired by the singer.

Rochelle is on a mission to help The Source spread cannabis awareness and acceptance in today's culture.

"It's about consciously shifting into a different mental gear where you're not racing against time or letting anxiety cloud your present experience. By activating this mindset, you can actually be fully present and engaged with whatever's happening around you, whether that's enjoying a meal, building a website, having a conversation, or just watching the sunset.

"'Island Time isn't just some notion of being casually late to things, but rather a life philosophy that has real implications for health and wellness. Just as the Jamaican 'no problem' attitude isn't about dismissing issues, but rather about maintaining that internal calm that helps you navigate life's challenges."

For this recipe, we brew antioxidant rich hibiscus tea, then infuse it with top shelf THC distillate, CBG, and the lesser-known, appetite-suppressing rare cannabinoid: THC-V. We’ve also added ginger, with a curated blend of terpenes, bringing cannabis science and Jamaican flavors together to get Arkansas feeling irie! There’s no time like the present to ride the Hi Tide.
