Trinidad and Tobago has been experiencing a spate of not only gun violence, but gender based violence casualties. In the aftermath of Ashanti Riley’s death and thereafter, that of Andrea Bharatt, a massive outcry ensued. Artistes, locally and internationally, including Love and Hip Hop Atlanta’s Karlie Redd and rapper, Cardi B, voiced concern over what had been unravelling.

Trinidad and Tobago music producer, Kyle Phillips recently told us that a song emerged from his quarters, following Riley’s murder – a song that he says held a message that needed to be told. The release of ‘Watch Ova Wi’ sung by Jonelle Manwarring and featuring TriniBad artist, Trinidad Killa, boasts a powerful African energy, complete with melodically tantalising resonance but still, remaining true to a youthful bounce that’s difficult to ignore. The single, which offers a perfectly executed video was uploaded to YouTube three weeks ago. “This song came from a place of us needing to say something about what had been going on. We started it on Boxing Day, following the murder of Ashanti Riley,” said Phillips. “Jonelle said “yuh know Kyle, I am a female in this industry. I have a voice and I can speak out about this.”” From there, the work began.
