Can you name some ARTISTS from your country or from another country that is KNOWN by U, and who is KNOWN within that COUNTRY, but who you SENSE may not be KNOWN to the IMIX crowd, simply because they do not know of the artist's/band's music, they were too young to know the artist or they simply were not BORN in the Caribbean, therefore their KNOWLEDGE of artists/bands, within the REGION, apart from what they hear on PIRATE STATIONS, FETES, or on IMIX, and other site of its kind, are quite LIMITED.

These artists/bands can be PAST and/or PRESENT.

papa jerry - had one tune that broke out but not too much "more fyah"

black wizard - a veteran in the business. he did a popular song in the 80's "soca feelings"

tangler - probably the only chutney soca artist from grenada. did songs like "tunca jana" and "no food for you tonight"

japs - very talanted young artist who's been out for a while. first popular tune was "mass".

I don't know of an artist but a band out of Guyana named The Ninja Band. I never heard of them myself until I went to Miami carnival 2003 where they performed at the Convention centre. They aren't bad really. I haven't heard of them playing anywhere else other than for Miami Carnival. Last year at Miami carnival they said for the first time they would be performing in Trinidad for carnival 2005 at Glow, or Insomnia, not sure if they actually made it.
