American or Caribbean music covered by a network (7)
I believe the answer is:
alaskan
'american' is the definition.
(Alaskan is an example)
'caribbean music covered by a network' is the wordplay.
'caribbean music' becomes 'ska' (I've seen this in another clue).
'covered by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'network' becomes 'LAN' (Local Area Network).
'a'+'lan'='alan'
'ska' inserted inside 'alan' is 'ALASKAN'.
'or' is the link.
(Other definitions for alaskan that I've seen before include "Citizen of the 49th state of the USA" , "Person from state that's not so warm" , "From Anchorage, perhaps" , "Eg, native of Anchorage" , "native of Juneau?" .)
