 Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. January 17, 2012 --Who ever said Caribbean unity was far fetched, hadn’t met Shurwayne Winchester. His determination to bridge all gaps when it comes to music is overwhelmingly refreshing and his method of doing it has garnered the appreciation of many people, spanning the Caribbean’s diverse music industry. Today, Winchester’s voice will be heard alongside that of dancehall’s newest superstar, Popcaan. The pair recently completed the remix to Shurwayne’s single, Nobody Badda Dan We or Shorty as it’s referred to, which, even before its remix, was considered a very strong single, worthy of tremendous attention.

Soca mafia true or false? |

The soca mafia—is it real or is it all hype? This controversial issue is not a new one. In fact, it has been rearing its ugly head for a while now, with some artistes charging that “certain” entertainers are being favoured over others and are dominating the airwaves for the Carnival season. Then there are those who chalk it up to artistes “toting feelings” simply because their music just doesn’t make the cut. Either way, this “mafia” talk, which seems to be on the tip of many more tongues this year, does not augur well for the image of soca music, and by extension T&T, especially at a time when some local artistes are doing their part to represent the red, white and black on the world’s stage. The T&T Guardian recently spoke to some of the main players in the music game and sought to shed some light on the topic. Here is what they had to say.
