Well, it was only a matter of time. Bunji Garlin’s back home in T&T and news of the VP recording artiste has already made it to the inboxes of many a media house in Trinidad and Tobago- this as he made his way to Digicel to get the new Samsung S5. Bunji’s never been one to hide his love for technology. He’s been using his devices to capture every moment of his blossoming career and he’s also been well synced with social media- so much so that even we here at ETCETERABUZZ.COM have been able to deliver stories to you from posts made directly by the entertainer.

Bunji says during every moment he reminds himself that the success could all vanish in an instant.

In a quick chat with EBUZZ this afternoon, Bunji said that while he had been invited to check out the phone by Digicel and of course, be among the first to get the S5, he is not in talks at the moment, to become affiliated as an endorsee with the Digicel brand. He told us that he’s excited to check out the waterproof capability of the new smart device and of course the underwater capability of the camera.

Separately, Bunji’s set for the road again this weekend, telling us that he’ll be heading to Jamaica, Toronto, Tobago Jazz Festival and then St. Maarten. He said his baby girl Syri has been chilling out here in Trinidad with her grandma and cousins while mommy and daddy’s been on the international grind. Bunji’s carded to appear on stage at Hot 97FM’s Summer Jam on June 1st. He will make history as the first Trinidadian Soca artist to perform at the festival, having been confirmed for the main stadium stage along with 50 Cent, Nas, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne & Young Money, Wiz Khalifa, YG, Ty Dolla $ign, DJ Mustard, The Roots, Trey Songz, Sevyn Streeter, Kid Ink, Action Bronson, Troy Ave and more. 

Calm as he usually is, the ‘Differentology’ singer told us it’s truly a great feeling to be able to accomplish this- to feel his dreams becoming reality  and to be able to represent for T&T. He however said, “In my mind though, I am mindful in the moment, that all of this could just simply and easily vanish.”

Bunji and Fay-Ann chilled out a bit with Ludacris in Atlanta recently. Bunji said, Luda left the biggest impression on him.

Bunji got his S5 at Digicel recently.

Asked who has left the biggest impression on him since things took off overseas, Bunji said, US rapper Ludacris. “When Fay and I met him, it was at his video/photoshoot during our promo tour in Atlanta. Jonathan Mannion arrived at the same time with us and was like, ‘ you and Fay and the team need to come hang with Luda a bit at his shoot.’ Respecting his time and environment, we went over and he was very, very, very cool and we had a few laughs. We exchanged a little vibe and not for one moment was there an air of hype- not that we were expecting it but it was just encouraging. It showed that you can still reach the upper levels and still be level,” said the T&T soca star.
