What was Machel thinking?????????
OK...this may be late in coming but was anyone there for Baccanal Wednesday in TNT??? I am a huge Machel fan but he disappointed me with his stage show this particualar night because he had way to much Reggae influence...after 20 minutes of trying to reggaenize carnival I left with the 20 soca fanatics that was with me. I am not downplaying Reggae at all...I like it a great deal...but come on this is TNT Carnival non Sun Splash...If Machel would remember back to Pier 1 cooler fete about 6 years back the lead singer of I forgot which band got booed and pelted off stage when he tried singing his 3rd regae song in a row...I am a SOCA purist...I don't mind reggae influence soca but it was quite obvious that night the crowd felt as I did.

I love Machel to death but I felt the same way. I understand the unity he's trying to promote and that he wants to take soca out of its lil box -I commend him for being a pioneer in so many ways but the bottom line is that I want pure, unadulterated soca. The reggae ish killed the vybe several times in my opinion.
I feel the same way about the amount of R&B thats been going on in the soca as well, that may be cool the rest of the year but NOT for CARNIVAL! |

Point well taken, I am in agreement with you...but, did you take it to the main source management at Xtatik LTD, tel # 868-623- 0143 or xtatik@xtatik.com ? If so what did management have to say ? Also, I would want to think that any professional in any business would want to hear constructive feedback ....so please let us know. |

 well i wasnt present at the fete in question but i belive he performed the same routine each night at every fete.......and i luved it the only night he strayed was at Zen on Ash Wednesday which was a remarkable performance I luv what he has done for soca and continues to do The reggae and R&B influences are brilliant he is just moving with the times and new trend tryin to reach that diversed target market! my two cents..... |
