The Caribbean is slowly becoming the mecca of vibes. This past Thursday, Machel Montano and his reggae buddy, Shaggy created quite a stir at an event dubbed, Pandemonium. According to our EBUZZ correspondent in Jamaica, Montano and Shaggy who have a musical history of their own, sent fetters into a frenzy on the island that’s known for its reggae and dancehall flavours.

Days prior to the event, both Shaggy and Machel were busy keeping fans abreast of the excitement in the build up to the all inclusive, posting several photos on Instagram, a couple of which saw them together.

The event was one of the highlights of the Jamaica carnival 2014 calendar of events so far, with Machel delivering with a heightened level of intensity, which saw fans and soca lovers excitedly party through the night. Jamaica has also laid claim to the powder phenomenon that goes along with Carnival, having showed that they are quite capable of adding a bit of flair to their ‘fog’ with various colours of the powder sprinkled into the night air during performances.

Machel was joined by HD family members Patrice Roberts and Farmer Nappy at the event and as many would expect, Nappy received tremendous respect from revelers when he hit the stage to his 2014 smash single, ‘Big People Party’. EBUZZ understands that Nappy was brought onto the stage in a cloud of yellow fog, a move that willed the crowd to send even more powder into the night sky. The party would then take on a life of its own- this of course with the introduction of Jamaica’s very own, Shaggy who pleased his fans with renditions of ‘Oh Carolina’, ‘Mr. Boombastic’ and even getting his duet on with Montano. The pair dished out hit after hit, delivering to fans a feel good vibe that couldn’t be missed. Appearing comfortable alongside each other on stage, the Caribbean music makers laughed and made jokes, pleasing their audience while certainly having a great time themselves.

Also a part of the event was Grenada’s newest culture ambassador, Mr. Killa. It was only last week that a new single by the Grenandian entertainer was released here in Trinidad. That one’s called, ‘Pepper Wine’.

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.”
