Bunji Garlin and Shurwayne Winchester are the two artistes chosen by Dominican super producer, Dada, for proper execution on his brand new “Smoke Riddim.” He says the artistes were chosen because he believes they can truly deliver in any big fete setting.

In a brief chat with Ebuzztt on December 26th, when the riddim was unleashed, Dada explained that the Smoke Riddim is in fact a hybrid riddim, blending Soca and Dominica’s bouyon music. Dada, whose real name is Krishna Lawrence, was the man behind the production of the 2019 Road March hit of Trinidad and Tobago, “Famalay,” collaboratively done by Machel Montano, Skinny Fabulous and Bunji Garlin. He also produced “Conch Shell,” which was a collaboration between Machel, Iwer George and Skinny Fabulous.

Merging the Soca and Bouyon, Dada explained that he believes both artistes have just what it takes to bring feting back to what it once was in T&T. “These two artistes were specifically chosen because these are two of the artistes out of Trinidad and Tobago with the energy and gumption to manage a fete with big flags and rags and water. It’s time to bring back the energy! It’s time to bring back feting to what it used to be,” he urged.

Bunji Garlin’s single on the riddim is called, “Forward,” and Shurwayne delivers, “Wet Dem Down.” Dada has also produced for other artistes this season, among them, Patrice Roberts on her single, “Look Meh Friend,” and he is also credited as the mix engineer on Nadia Batson’s hit single, “Market.”

Trinidad Killa Shares Prophecy with Fellow Artistes.

There’s never a dull moment in Caribbean entertainment and we’ve got proof. Trinidad Killa has shared prophecy for the future and he’s calling on his fellow artistes on the music circuit to understand their worth.

The restauranteur and entertainer took a brief moment away from his TK Smokehouse duties to hop on an Instagram Livestream. In his prophesy, the TK, whose real name is Kern Joseph, said he predicts that by 2030 there will no more Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago. “You know why? Artistes underselling (day-self). Artistes calling promoters and telling dem, put meh on yh show, put meh on yuh show, put meh on yuh show,” he expressed. The often controversial entertainer alleged that because of this, promoters are not paying artistes to appear on their shows.

He went on, “Carnival become a competition. Once a man have a Road March tune, he poppin’ up in fetes and poppin’ up on shows and performing for free,” he alleged, adding that annually, promoters in Carnival pay the same major artistes for live performances.

Trinidad Killa migrated to the United States some three years ago. He has however remained consistently vocal on the events taking place in his homeland. “Allyuh see what go on with Soca Monarch. There is no more Soca Monarch,” he said, going on to positively highlight this year’s Flava Village addition. “There is so much going on in the carnival. All I would like to say is, artistes, stop under-selling allyuh self and when allyuh learn the value of allyuh artistry, and allyuh stop sell allyuh self short, that is when the industry will start to move.”

Trinidad Killa ended his livestream with the words, “music is a mission, not a competition.”

Produced annually by well known Soca DJ, Dr. Jay, the event is touted as the best fete post T&T carnival each year.

In the aftermath of this year’s Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago, Christo – a relatively new artiste to the soca spotlight, said the love he received this season was unmatched. He took to social media, writing, “To everyone who streamed the music, requested the songs on radio, shared the content, learned the lyrics, and sang every word back at the shows, I see you, and I appreciate you. The growth this Carnival was undeniable, and it happened because of YOU.”

The young artiste referred to Carnival 2026 as a defining chapter in his journey.
