Caribana Was Great!
It was raining hard at 6am, but by the time I woke up around 9ish, it had stopped...matter of fact, I got a tan playing mas! We had a time! Destra played with us and she said it was the best time she ever had on the road! She had a ball! Her younger sis played with us as well, winah gyul jr
I had no voice by the end of the day, and when I got home, all I had time to do was take a shower and get ready for Hatters, yuh talk bout pace!? In a couple hours it's Markham Fairgrounds and Sandys... ![]() |

Giiiirl! you ain' lying atallll!!! This has been the best Caribana I have ever experienced, I really can't believe I had SO MUCH FUN without playing mas...I been going hard since Friday and I tell you I had a blast wukkin up on the truck, the road only saw me when I hopped from truck to truck! I tell you when I got home my back was out of commision and I had to pause in the middle of each flight of stairs my legs were so tired, but I too jus had time to shower and leave for the next fete..I went to Shangri-La and lets just say SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!!! That is the most powder I have ever been victim to, jumping up with the brooklyn powder posse is a serious ting!! I inhaled so much powder I felt like a blasted crack addict!
I jus got the energy to shower and get ready for Markham fairgrounds, see you there! ![]() |

Oh Ca-na-da!!!!!
AH can lie caribana was nice. It's a shame I have to travel all the way back to NY to go to work cause my body need rest. Big up's to Jamal Magloire of the NBA's New Orleans Hornets who had a wicked float. (Toronto by birth trini by blood) We chip all the way down lakeshore with D'Regulars big shout to them too. Big up to Maximus Dan who did his thing on de truck. Flexed at shangri-LI Seem like NYC was in that place I really felt at home away from home. The islands today was ok. Like to tell all yuh more but no time to waste have to figure out which last lap I will attend tonight b4 the long trip back to NY!!

Well, I had a ball. The sun came out right before we crossed the stage on Saturday and we played our mas.
Las Lap @ MFG was so much fun! I ended up at the Imij & Co. show last night and they have really improved in the past couple of years. They put on a great show. |

Caribana was great with the exception of the Wet Fete - That promoter needs to be shut down. Advertised the show as starting at 1pm - we arrived at 5:30 pm, and not one artist had performed yet. He had Bunji, Traffik, Denise, Invasion,..... all standing around for at least 3 hours and seemed to be haggling money with them b/c he didn't have the crowd he expected. Bunji finally left - When we left at 10pm, not one artist had performed.
It is promoters like this that end up giving the musicians a bad name, because people don't realize that the artists aren't being paid. If you put on a show, you have to be prepared to make money or lose money - not fair to the fans or the artists that they are the ones to take the hit. |
