Bunji and Fay-Ann discuss why they arent at Intl SOCA Monarch 2013
JW was lucky enough to get them to sit down and relate why they decided against accepting the terms and conditions laid out in the contract put forward by Caribbean Prestige Foundation. Over the years i have poked fun and fatigue at the Foundation despite their ‘well intentioned’ efforts and this only aids in furthering my disappointments of their self initiated mandate. I am most disappointed considering they have a very talented lawyer on their team now. Maybe in 2014 CPF can clean up their image and win me over… even Kes realised that the MOANark isnt for him and IOK with that…

Chutney in yuh Soca
Chutney in yuh SocaAn arts documentary examining the phenomenon of “chutney soca“, a musical hybrid from Trinidad & Tobago which blends the traditions of the islands’ two biggest ethnic groups – Indian and African. As much political as musical, “chutney soca” seems to offer a way for the two cultures, often perceived as being mutally antagonistic, to come together in a new exciting fusion of sounds.
