- 2:05Speaker 2: I'm going to learn something.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Let me tell you what had happened.
- 2:08Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, I don't like to tell stories in song.
- 2:11Speaker 2: I don't like to talk out too much of stories and them kind of things too much.
- 2:15Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I also don't like to miss episodes.
- 2:20Speaker 2: When I do miss an episode, you have to come with a proper reason or excuse.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Were we friendly enough for me to give all your reason at this point, or how to give all your excuse?
- 2:29Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you.
- 2:32Speaker 2: I went away, I leave and I come back home.
- 2:35Speaker 2: I come back to stay.
- 3:29Speaker 1: I must see me way.
- 3:31Speaker 1: I went away, looking for another home, try to run away, run away from my destiny In another world, a world that was strange to me, trying to change myself, change my identity.
- 3:52Speaker 1: But strong is the power of love and the power of freedom.
- 3:57Speaker 1: And the power of blackness Fills my heart.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Yeah, blah, blah, blah.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I went away.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Strong is the power of love and the power of freedom.
- 4:23Speaker 2: I must see my way.
- 4:24Speaker 2: So them alone want to go to Brickell City Centre and buy nice things.
- 4:27Speaker 2: I take a little runway.
- 4:28Speaker 2: I take a little runway, but here was the problem.
- 4:31Speaker 2: The problem was still not to miss an episode.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Let me get myself together here.
- 4:35Speaker 2: The plan wasn't still to miss an episode, even though I've gone many, many times.
- 4:39Speaker 2: I've gone and come back and episodes was in the tuck.
- 4:41Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 4:41Speaker 2: Episodes was in the chamber, but just before I leave back on, episodes was in the tuck.
- 4:44Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Episodes was in the chamber, but just before I leave I started to feel a little symptoms.
- 4:50Speaker 2: You know, I'm back at this stage in life where my son was going to a small school all the time, right, if the class had 10 children, there were plenty, and he had moved from San Fernando boys to go to that school.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Again, all of them are business.
- 5:03Speaker 2: If you're listening here a long time, you know these stories before, but if you're new, we move in.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Man, we put him in a small school close to home, right?
- 5:10Speaker 2: So it's been a long time since I've dealt with this thing where these trainers go to school and them is get sick, and when they get sick.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Only their father is get sick Because the mother young and healthy and the father over the hill, the father middle age.
- 5:25Speaker 2: So anything you come home with, I gain.
- 5:27Speaker 2: So now that I'm back in a big school and week after week, more and more boys in Fatima, form 1 have the flu and they have.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Whatever it is they have, I come home and I gain it live and direct.
- 5:38Speaker 2: So I really find I feel myself sniffling something before I was leaving.
- 5:41Speaker 2: But I ain't paid no mind because you know, as a little bit of a Miami baby, I take a Miami runway.
- 5:46Speaker 2: It's nothing who tell me Miami ain't gonna be 16 degrees, the place cold.
- 5:56Speaker 2: How much we stay?
- 5:56Speaker 2: We must stay about four or five days.
- 5:57Speaker 2: The place is cold, morning cold, evening cold.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I had a great experience for the first time seeing the New England Patriots play.
- 6:05Speaker 2: I'll tell you, the Patriots are very bad.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Right, we went to Hard Rock Stadium and took in a Patriots game.
- 6:09Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 6:10Speaker 2: We're spending the last of the Forex that we have.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Right, let me put it this way the way Forex is going, I may not miss many episodes in the future, but we're spending the last of the Forex we had and we spent the last of the four weeks we had and we went and watched the Dolphins play against the Patriots.
- 6:24Speaker 2: I went to my Tom Brady jersey.
- 6:26Speaker 2: So look, my boy, colonel King.
- 6:27Speaker 2: He must have given me that Tom Brady jersey Before Zachary was born.
- 6:30Speaker 2: He gave me that jersey.
- 6:31Speaker 2: I got a chance to put it on and go in the stadium and I'm feeling kind of bad.
- 6:35Speaker 2: You know, I put on my Tom Brady jersey.
- 6:40Speaker 2: Brady done, leave, went to Tampa Bay, retire, buy nothing.
- 6:42Speaker 2: The Raiders now, but nobody back in the Patriots.
- 6:45Speaker 2: In that Miami stadium nobody was wearing a current jersey for our current players, all old Patriots players, and I showed why.
- 6:51Speaker 2: Because the Patriots is a mess.
- 6:53Speaker 2: It was about 31 zip, but, more importantly, forget sports.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Right, the place was cold.
- 6:58Speaker 2: If you see me in the stands like a baby, I want a dodo Cold breeze blowing in my face.
- 7:03Speaker 2: I can't see my way.
- 7:05Speaker 2: According to Andre Tanke, I'm leaving.
- 7:07Speaker 2: I'm going and looking for a new home.
- 7:08Speaker 2: I want to come back home.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Let me see my way.
- 7:10Speaker 2: According to Dr Witty, catch ass for catch ass.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Let me catch my ass, doggy, I can't deal with it, that place, if Miami's so cold.
- 7:21Speaker 2: Things, bad Things, bad Things, bad Things bad, but they had some kind of a cool front and I mean there's a little boy's trip.
- 7:27Speaker 2: He's gone every year.
- 7:28Speaker 2: So I'm trying to play Tonto, I'm trying to play man of Alignment late every night and listen, it was bad, but I have a head cool and I want to tell you I'm still not feeling good.
- 7:38Speaker 2: I'm not feeling good at all.
- 7:40Speaker 2: I try my best to recover, do all kinds of things to try to get myself back in again.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Now I am a man, right, I'll tell you this.
- 7:46Speaker 2: I am a man who, kind of, you know, I believe in Dr Darius White, right, I believe in doctors.
- 7:58Speaker 2: You see me when I go by the doctor.

- 8:02Speaker 2: Give me a prescription and give me antibiotics and them kind of thing.
- 8:06Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 8:06Speaker 2: That is me.
- 8:07Speaker 2: But I'll tell you this, nothing.
- 8:09Speaker 2: It didn't seem to be working.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Because it don't matter I hope I'm not singing too nasally here, but I did go to the doctor.
- 8:20Speaker 2: And this is Christmas right Before I men who, in my absence, make a list of the top 100 soaker of all time.

- 8:37Speaker 2: But let me give you a story about me and how I go about things when I'm sick.

- 10:22Speaker 1: Cannibal day, crazy man, you're all crazy and truthy.
- 10:26Speaker 1: At first I thought she was making joke.
- 10:30Speaker 2: And asked her if she was cursing me.
- 10:32Speaker 2: But she said try it and it will work.
- 10:37Speaker 1: This is an old people remedy.
- 10:39Speaker 1: But after all, I was still in doubt and asked if she could further explain.

- 12:40Speaker 2: I will admit, however, that none of it work.
- 12:43Speaker 2: So you see where crazy went down in his second verse and he started saying lime and honey and ginger lily and stinking suzy, that might as well be palestasie, because palestasie say she has something there.
- 12:57Speaker 2: If you're warm water, she said the warm, no pipe water, you know you had to warm blue waters, you had to warm.
- 13:02Speaker 2: You had a warm water, distilled water, you know I mean battery acid, she must be able to put in.
- 13:06Speaker 2: But she said if you warm that and you think so and you pour some in your nose and somehow or the other, right every remedy, that's that palace stacy, come up with it.
- 13:15Speaker 2: Always have a kind of salt.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Throw some salt over your shoulder, rub salt under your foot, mix salt in the water.

- 18:39Speaker 2: Baron, at number 99, I'm still looking for sparrow.
- 18:45Speaker 2: I'm still looking for sparrow, any sparrow, any sparrow.
- 18:48Speaker 2: I tell myself, well, if you're making a top 100 soaker hits of all time, right, I, I want to think that you tell me the sparrow song I feel should be there.
- 19:01Speaker 2: If you make the next hundred, you tell me what should be there.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Because I tell myself, well, gene and Dinah go hot to be.
- 19:08Speaker 2: But in my mind again, maybe I too old school, maybe I like too much of old tunes.
- 19:12Speaker 2: I actually don't find the dude too bad with the top 10, but I'm not understanding how a man like Kitchener, if you had to think of a 100 soaker, you know where Sugar Boom Boom land.
- 19:25Speaker 2: I think Sugar Boom Boom is number 37.
- 19:33Speaker 2: It's a dangerous thing, you know.
- 19:34Speaker 2: It's a dangerous thing when you see you're depending too much on men.
- 19:44Speaker 2: Who soaker music and calypso music was a fallback.
- 19:45Speaker 2: It has some men soaker music and calypso music and a fallback.
- 19:46Speaker 2: It has some men.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Soca music and calypso music and Trinidad cult here is what they turned to when other things wasn't working, when they see other things didn't work out so well for them or they outgrow other things and they start to get older in life and they had to see things differently.
- 20:02Speaker 2: They started to look to soca music as an option.
- 20:04Speaker 2: Now what sort of young DJs now born, uh, the Y2K can play?
- 20:11Speaker 2: I can say that the Y2K can play.
- 20:16Speaker 2: So they only know a certain amount of soccer music.
- 20:18Speaker 2: And let me tell you something this top 101 list here from Scorch telling me a story about why, when I go certain fit, I just only hear the same set of song over and over and over and over and over.
- 20:35Speaker 2: No matter what, if your money long right and you go three or four fit in the same night, you're going to hear the same set of songs from them, same set of DJs.
- 20:46Speaker 2: I hear a man say on the radio today salute to Sonny Bling.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Right, I was listening to them today.
- 20:50Speaker 2: And they say people don't like the word Soca Mafia, so they come up with things like artist team.
- 20:58Speaker 2: All of them come from the same.
- 21:02Speaker 2: They cut from the same cloth.
- 21:03Speaker 2: They cut from the same cloth.
- 21:04Speaker 2: They're cut from the same cloth.
- 21:06Speaker 2: I would get into the top 30 list.
- 21:07Speaker 2: I would get into the top 30 list, but I would think that I mean I do an episode just the other day talking about one of the greatest calypsonian, one of the greatest soccer artist, one of the greatest performers, writers to ever live, and I'm going through again because I tell you I'm not feeling well and my eyesight ain't so great and I don't want to tell you these songs in front of it.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Right, and 17 is a special number to me, right, 17 is a very special.
- 21:37Speaker 2: I born on the 17th of february, a carnival sunday.
- 21:41Speaker 2: You see soca and calypso on carnival and them, take that and they fall back for me.
- 21:45Speaker 2: That's why I was born loving that.
- 21:47Speaker 2: Ask my mother, she going to tell you when she looking to go and people playing them with my mask on their juvie, I have people under pressure in the hospital.
- 21:55Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 21:56Speaker 2: They don't fall back for me.
- 21:58Speaker 2: 52 weeks a year.
- 22:00Speaker 2: I have no Soka switch and I don't have no Kaizo switch and no Calypso switch.
- 22:03Speaker 2: I play in this every week, give or take.
- 22:08Speaker 2: But when I see a man like Winston Bailey, and the first entry he have on the list is number 17.
- 22:15Speaker 2: I don't just call it poetic, you know what I mean Poetic justice.
- 22:18Speaker 2: I love number 17, so I can't vex if 17 is there.
- 22:21Speaker 2: But from the man who's number 17 on the top 100, and I want to tell you that these are the men who making decisions on what going to play on the road in the biggest band it have for the carnaval.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Keep that in mind, right.
- 22:33Speaker 2: The men who sit down and come up with this list is the men who making the decisions as to what play across the stage and what play dong tong and what playing soca drum and what play the most and what play'll play the least.
- 22:44Speaker 2: And we'll play the what we push and fed.
- 22:46Speaker 2: These is the men who make any decisions.
- 22:48Speaker 2: But at least shadow make the list.
- 22:50Speaker 2: At least he was 99, like baron the first entry.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Uh, I think shadow on the list a few times, right, but I do have a shadow song to play, based on all the home remedies I've been getting for this call here.
- 23:03Speaker 2: You all know this.
- 23:06Speaker 2: A little boy Named for the right Accusing me.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Yes, he asked me.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Is he real?
- 23:44Speaker 2: That I don't feel.
- 23:45Speaker 2: I ask him why he tells him lies.
- 23:50Speaker 2: He says you're saying nonsense, but people love your nonsense.
- 23:54Speaker 2: Dysphobia, you're walking over.
- 23:58Speaker 2: You're looking like a boo boo, but your sister loves you.
- 24:02Speaker 2: Dysphobia, you're walking.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Phobia, phobia man, answer the question.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Phobia man, who are you doing with Satan?
- 24:14Speaker 2: Phobia, you're walking, phobia.
- 24:18Speaker 1: It's phobia.
- 24:19Speaker 1: You're walking, phobia.
- 24:21Speaker 1: You are the end of the earth.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Money, hey, money hey.
- 24:56Speaker 1: He said it is that you must lose.
- 24:57Speaker 1: But make your feet, pass up your shoes.
- 25:01Speaker 1: So be a man.
- 25:02Speaker 1: You take a smile.

- 25:04Speaker 1: But up your shoes, obia man.
- 25:05Speaker 1: You think it's smart?
- 25:05Speaker 1: No normal man Could be like that.
- 25:09Speaker 1: I know you're saying nonsense, but the end of your nonsense Is Obia.
- 25:15Speaker 1: You're walking, obia.
- 25:17Speaker 1: You're looking like a booboo, but all the women love you.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Is Obia.
- 25:22Speaker 1: You're walking Obia.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Obiaman.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Answer the question, obiaman, true or not?
- 25:33Speaker 1: You're dealing with Satan.
- 25:34Speaker 1: Obia, you're walking Obia.
- 25:37Speaker 1: It's Obia.
- 25:38Speaker 1: You're walking, obia.
- 25:40Speaker 1: You are being odious.
- 26:17Speaker 2: You're an idiot.
- 26:18Speaker 2: An idiot.
- 26:18Speaker 2: I tell the ground.
- 26:19Speaker 2: I don't like that.
- 26:20Speaker 2: He runs the sun and tells me hard.
- 26:21Speaker 2: I ask him why he says it's hard.
- 26:23Speaker 2: He says it's hard, asking what this is all just for you.
- 26:25Speaker 2: He said it's all just not for you.
- 26:29Speaker 2: I know you're singing nonsense, but we are the love of your nonsense.
- 26:34Speaker 2: It's Obeah, you're walking Obeah.
- 26:36Speaker 2: I know this is nonsense, but still I love the nonsense.
- 26:42Speaker 2: It's Obe Rockin' Obia.
- 26:45Speaker 2: So let me see how the Obia work out.
- 26:47Speaker 2: By the time I reach the next episode, you'll have my voice back to songin' luxurious Right now with the songin' so great.
- 26:53Speaker 2: I also have two classes Every Saturday, one from 8 to about 10, one from 10 to about whenever.
- 27:02Speaker 2: But rough, I tired like a dog.
- 27:06Speaker 2: But we're here, we're here, we're here, we're here.
- 27:07Speaker 2: So all I want to hear was the top 10 on the list.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I had time to go through all 100.
- 27:12Speaker 2: But the demographic in this podcast listenership is going to be upset.
- 27:19Speaker 2: But let me get the top 10.
- 27:20Speaker 2: And the top 10 is where I have the least disagreement.
- 27:24Speaker 2: And I figure the top 10 is where I have the least disagreements and I figure the top 10 is where the most work went into this, right just outside the top 10 is conga line.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Jump on boy.
- 27:31Speaker 2: Jump on boy with the conga line.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Conga line, jump on boy.
- 27:35Speaker 2: I had to say that you can make a list of top 100.
- 27:38Speaker 2: So can conga line not somewhere there, right?
- 27:40Speaker 2: So if you don't leave me in mind that hot, hot, hot by arrow had to beat hard to beat, we can sit down here and and keep in mind, right, that when you make these lists plenty, it's objective, the men who make these lists as experts, because I see the controlling radio station, the control, not play on the road and so on.
- 27:56Speaker 2: But if you get some experts from some other areas, they might have something to say about that.
- 28:01Speaker 2: But most people, most learned people or people who know soka and kaiso and calypso, it could be hard to make a top 10 list without putting hot, hot, hot somewhere in and around the top 10.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Right, that's that.
- 28:15Speaker 2: That that's soka.
- 28:17Speaker 2: For years.
- 28:18Speaker 2: You could argue, if we make enough lists, hot, hot, hot could be number one on plenty people list.
- 28:23Speaker 2: Well, you could agree with that Number nine.
- 28:26Speaker 2: I see they say Super Blue.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Now, I wasn't in the country, right, so I didn't get to hear the rationale for this.
- 28:31Speaker 2: I would have liked to hear the rationale and the breakdown right, but I see something here saying get something to wave signal to Lara, and back in our time, almost like if them three song is the same song, and I'm not sure about that.
- 28:50Speaker 2: I'm not sure about that.
- 28:51Speaker 2: I'm not sure what they used to come up with it.
- 28:53Speaker 2: I know the years when he sang these songs.
- 28:56Speaker 2: The rhetoric was that the man singing the same song over and over and is the same and preacher had to get something and wave too.
- 29:06Speaker 2: It, it, it, it, it, it is.
- 29:08Speaker 2: It is common to hear people say, even then I mean to be honest with you back then.
- 29:14Speaker 2: I remember talking to my father about this and arguing with him long time then super blue had no lyrics and super blue ain't really singing nothing and them kind of thing.
- 29:22Speaker 2: You know I mean, uh, boy, was I wrong as I get into that catalog and start to love super blue more and more over the years.
- 29:30Speaker 2: But get something and wave.
- 29:35Speaker 2: For the time that it was in long before social media and them kind of thing had to be one of the most played road matches of all time.
- 29:42Speaker 2: It was extremely difficult to beat.
- 29:45Speaker 2: Uh, even now as a song if when you hear the opening for that song I'm not sure that you could compare get something and wave, or if I make it a top 10, super blue, I don't even think these three songs could tie get something and wave as far ahead of these other two songs.
- 30:01Speaker 2: In my humble opinion they're different enough, but the the the iconic nature of get something and wave and the statement get something and wave, it is hard not to put this in our top 10 because everybody who won this top 101 at some point pick up this thing with get something and wave and super blue, play it in a song, immortalize it.
- 30:22Speaker 2: And me and and even even if only only remember one of the most iconic performances in Skinner Park, where the great Blue Boy, the great Super Blue, lorsi, falls, he'd snatch them thing back up and start back performing.
- 30:34Speaker 2: And I remember being with my mother in Barbarossa on the road that year and Ronnie the knife Macintosh is on the truck singing One more verse.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Well, i'ma put in my 40 first.
- 30:47Speaker 2: Mcintosh is on the truck singing one more verse.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Everybody start to wave.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Today's carnival, children.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Today's carnival.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Everybody start to wave on the counter phone.
- 30:57Speaker 2: I don't know that them three songs could be compared.
- 30:59Speaker 2: So, oliya, good been my books here so far, but I don't like what Oliya tried to do here.
- 31:02Speaker 2: Oliya tried to just train three songs together.
- 31:05Speaker 2: I would have love to hear the rational.
- 31:06Speaker 2: I assume any rational is that them three songs is the same.
- 31:09Speaker 2: Them three song is not the same.
- 31:10Speaker 2: Get something and wave his head and shoulders above all of them.
- 31:12Speaker 2: And again, if we make enough lists, get something and wave could end up number one and plenty people.
- 31:18Speaker 2: It is hard to say that is not a top 10 song, you know.
- 31:21Speaker 2: I mean.
- 31:21Speaker 2: So 10 and 9 are there with all this.
- 31:23Speaker 2: Still, you know, but if I had to choose my greatest super blue, it probably would not come from this era super blue either.
- 31:33Speaker 2: So when you have the highest level of super blue, which is the only greatest soccer artist of all time, if not the greatest right, one a and one b for greatest soccer artists, artists of all time, right, all they want to play it like that.
- 31:46Speaker 2: It's only had two men up for the greatest of all time in my books, right?
- 31:52Speaker 2: I don't even think get something and wave is the greatest song.
- 31:56Speaker 2: All they want.
- 31:57Speaker 2: Play where I feel and and what I'm going to play is probably still not his greatest song, but again, when it comes to putting together lyrics, making people dance, some proof-provoking talk and also providing a few remedies for the little flu for me, I don't know if you could be this in my book.
- 32:13Speaker 2: I ain't saying Rebecca had to be number one, but I'm saying it had to come from this era, rebecca Ethel Soka Baptist.
- 32:33Speaker 2: I'm not sure what they're listening to.
- 32:34Speaker 2: You can't get something and wave no knock on it, but listen to this.
- 32:41Speaker 1: While jumping up in a van I end up in confusion.
- 32:46Speaker 1: The van was at green corner.
- 32:49Speaker 1: I jump in with Rebecca.
- 32:52Speaker 1: I ain't sure if this oldie thing really happened Because my head was so bad, but Rebecca burst away, all she should but hold on and she started whining like she mad, falling down On the ground, jumping up, stopped but she was dancing all along.

- 34:47Speaker 1: Rebecca sniff the tea.
- 34:49Speaker 1: Rebecca, high, she was dancing around in a circle of blood.
- 34:53Speaker 1: She was high, high, high, hey, hey, uh-huh, hey, hey, hey, hey, uh-huh, hey, hey.

- 36:30Speaker 2: Oh boy, the list makers was high Talking about Thai song.
- 36:36Speaker 2: Rebecca Soka, baptiste, ethel, none of them.
- 36:39Speaker 2: Things not on the list, right, just to be clear, my eyesight is so good.
- 36:42Speaker 2: I ain't feeling great.
- 36:43Speaker 2: I have a headache.
- 36:44Speaker 2: I know I'm a contact something.
- 36:45Speaker 2: I ain't feeling great.
- 36:45Speaker 2: I have a headache.
- 36:45Speaker 2: I ain't know how I'm going to contact something.
- 36:46Speaker 2: I ain't got the right prescription, but I see splinters, higher than Rebecca.
- 36:51Speaker 2: Splinters are better soaker.
- 36:55Speaker 2: Marshall, ben over.
- 36:59Speaker 2: You know how you do your thing, girl, you're amazing.
- 37:03Speaker 2: That's better than splinters.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Charlie Blacks, girl, you're a party animal.
- 37:08Speaker 2: All that, all that better than Rebecca Soka.
- 37:14Speaker 2: Baptist, number 54.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Two songs by a man, again, 1998, high Mass 2003.
- 37:22Speaker 2: Trinity to the Bone.
- 37:23Speaker 2: I do not know that them two songs could be Bone.
- 37:25Speaker 2: I do not know that them two songs could be compared.
- 37:26Speaker 2: I do not know that them two songs could tie.
- 37:30Speaker 2: I do not know that either of them two songs should be as high as 54 on a list.
- 37:36Speaker 2: When I was there and the makers of this list, men like Hoppy and them, was done playing in party already.
- 37:41Speaker 2: When these two songs come out right, the impact of high mass in fit cannot be described.
- 37:48Speaker 2: There is nothing on this list, maybe, maybe bar one, maybe bar one song.
- 37:55Speaker 2: Now does a fat go on my fat life, shorter me comparing it to my father, fat life and song revolution.
- 38:02Speaker 2: My mother and them.
- 38:02Speaker 2: I know him comparing.
- 38:03Speaker 2: I compare my short fed life and song revolution.
- 38:04Speaker 2: My mother never.
- 38:04Speaker 2: I know him comparing.
- 38:04Speaker 2: I compare in my short fed life.
- 38:06Speaker 2: There are few songs that at that pace, that bpm.
- 38:11Speaker 2: It's a few songs that come out there and make people react like that at a visceral level.
- 38:24Speaker 2: In fact, in my whole life, differentology is one right because I the first time I heard differentology and thing it was different.
- 38:34Speaker 2: I guess the name suggests that it was.
- 38:36Speaker 2: But when I went, I went a panorama semi-final on the greens and when I see bungee perform differentology I said nah, boy, this is not just a big song this year, this iconic, this iconic.
- 38:50Speaker 2: And Trinita the Bone had to be one of the greatest sookers.
- 38:54Speaker 2: I'm not sure how that.
- 38:55Speaker 2: Not even, if you want to say it, not in the top 10, 54.
- 39:00Speaker 2: Not, not, not.
- 39:01Speaker 2: When I see again Charlie Black's party animal better than this voice chills to life, better than this, I do not know, I'm not sure.
- 39:11Speaker 2: I'm not sure what all he was trying to do.
- 39:13Speaker 2: All he's trying to protect relationships and appease thing and set up people for who are planning to play next year and them kind of thing.
- 39:19Speaker 2: I'm not sure I also set up people for who are they planning to play next year and them kind of thing.
- 39:28Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
- 39:29Speaker 2: Also, seeing close to 54, I see 57 big bad soaker by bungee garland.
- 39:30Speaker 2: I'm not sure that you could leave that song that high on our top 100 list.
- 39:32Speaker 2: Not possible, not possible.
- 39:33Speaker 2: But let me get back to the top 10.
- 39:34Speaker 2: I promise only the top 10 is what I'm gonna talk about.
- 39:36Speaker 2: Right at number eight, the frontology.
- 39:38Speaker 2: I would be disappointed if this song was not on the top ten list because of what I see Differentology do, how unique it is.
- 39:47Speaker 2: As a soccer it borderline want to be about three or four genre in one.
- 39:53Speaker 2: It's a big chance a man take to sing a song like that but when just ahead of him on the list have Hot, hot, hot.
- 40:00Speaker 2: It is along the same lines of the kind of international breakthrough that differentology make.
- 40:06Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 40:07Speaker 2: I always remember I was parangin.
- 40:09Speaker 2: I was by a man by the name of Mr Porgy.
- 40:13Speaker 2: I was by Uncle Porgy parangin a year and I was by a man who played a drup by the name of Mr Leslie and of course the younger ones in the family.
- 40:20Speaker 2: I Parangina here, that's how my man is playing a dudup there by the name of Mr Leslie, right, and so all of you will parangina and thing, and of course, the younger ones in the family.
- 40:25Speaker 2: I was one of the younger ones right, but a youth in particular by the name of Gary Wayne.
- 40:29Speaker 2: When we playing, he bringing this we ready, we ready, we ready, we ready, and we jamming down that ready Frontology, we ready for the road.
- 40:39Speaker 2: Well, boy, mr Leslie played that doodoo panting.
- 40:42Speaker 2: He say wait now.
- 40:42Speaker 2: He say so, and I want you to listen.
- 40:45Speaker 2: Mr Leslie, 175 years old, right, since I know myself, mr Leslie is a century maker.
- 40:53Speaker 2: And when we done and we stop playing, mr Leslie say wait now.
- 40:55Speaker 2: So the whole song is we ready, nothing else in coming, no chorus, but number eight to me well deserved different analogy number seven, rupee tempted to touch.
- 41:05Speaker 2: I'm not sure that I could argue with that and I I appreciate the people at scotch making this list inclusive of several islanders.
- 41:15Speaker 2: I saw byron lee on the list.
- 41:17Speaker 2: Or see mr killer on the list.
- 41:19Speaker 2: You, you know, I mean.
- 41:20Speaker 2: I think that that is an important thing to consider because it is easy for us as train begonians to sit down home here and make our top 100 list and forget about all the other people from all the other islands who contribute.
- 41:31Speaker 2: But rupee, tempted to touch is not me.
- 41:34Speaker 2: Blame it on the music.
- 41:35Speaker 2: You could almost and a Bajan might argue this differently just like, like how I say get something and wave and signal till our car be compared, they have some Arupi songs where, no matter what you're listening to at home or abroad, right, you just hear them songs playing in the background.
- 41:51Speaker 2: Sometimes you're watching a movie and you're hearing these songs playing in the background.
- 41:54Speaker 2: I'm just a little surprised that they put Tempted to Touch here and not um, you make me wanna jump along the place.
- 42:05Speaker 2: I would have think that higher and tempted to touch.
- 42:06Speaker 2: But who's me?
- 42:07Speaker 2: You know, I mean the experts.
- 42:08Speaker 2: The experts know it better than me.
- 42:09Speaker 2: You know I'm saying uh, allison, hines, togetherness.
- 42:13Speaker 2: There's an unity, togetherness.
- 42:18Speaker 2: And you walk, yeah, I suppose walk.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to argue again, I would have think that, for luma is a bigger song than that and again, I suppose, the people who make in this list as djs playing in fed, because I I got a glimpse into some of the arguments they was having about biggest songs, right, and one of the things they were saying is how the feds go up, how the feds go up when they play certain songs.
- 42:48Speaker 2: So I suppose, if that is what you're using to judge it, but I I was there for for luma, I was there for roll it gal, which is number 23, and I was certainly fetting at the time.
- 42:59Speaker 2: They had togetherness 2007.
- 43:01Speaker 2: Man, now coming out my house, I would have probably put Faluma and them up there, but I don't mind Alison Hines being there at number 6.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Regardless of which song they choose, number 5 this.
- 43:14Speaker 2: The best thing about this song is that bungee and marshall and skinny fabulous sing it.
- 43:27Speaker 2: Right.
- 43:30Speaker 2: Let me read what they say, because for the top five they have a little bit more of an explanation.
- 43:34Speaker 2: They say family is a modern soca masterpiece that celebrates unity, camaraderie and the unbreakable bonds of the Caribbean family.
- 43:42Speaker 2: Sung by the Soca powerhouses Marshall, montano, bungee, garland and Skinny Fabulous, the song's infectious rhythm and uplifting lyrics capture the essence of togetherness during Carnival.
- 43:55Speaker 2: Its universal message and high-energy vibe have made family an anthem that transcends borders, solidifying its place among the greatest soaker of all time.
- 44:07Speaker 2: Family family.
- 44:11Speaker 2: Okay, alright, this is where my age might start to show, right, only following Drake vs Kendrick in the states of they not like us, they not like us, they not like us, amen.
- 44:27Speaker 2: Drake is suing his record label Universal Music Group for two reasons.
- 44:34Speaker 2: First, he say they spent a certain money.
- 44:37Speaker 2: Kendrick Lamar is also under Universal Music Group, right, both of them being published under the same label, surprisingly, and they were in one another.
- 44:44Speaker 2: But he put out a lawsuit recently, or at least started filing, to say that number one Oli went against the contract by promoting a song or using bots to promote a song which is they Not Like Us, right, which is the number one song by any stretch of the imagination.
- 45:02Speaker 2: I happen to be in la the week after that song launch and it was wild.
- 45:06Speaker 2: I've never heard anything like that before.
- 45:08Speaker 2: Every realization, every car that passing you eating in a diner is they not like us?
- 45:13Speaker 2: And euphoria and all kendrick songs playing.
- 45:15Speaker 2: I suppose I in la, so they're supporting kendrick, right, I'm going somewhere with this and it's in some way related to this family thing, right, but he said that only using bots and only using, uh, basically, algorithms on social media and so on, so to push the idea, or ai to push, or make it seem as though the song bigger than it is.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Because drake entered into a negotiation now with umg where he rumored to be asking for a billion dollars more than double, I think, one and a half times where he getting now his first, last deal was rumored to be 400 million.
- 45:49Speaker 2: He asked him for a billion dollars.
- 45:51Speaker 2: Now, right, so he's suing his record label saying that all you're trying to demean me by promoting a song that dissing me, using bots and AI and things to make the song look bigger than it is and only doing that to weaken my negotiating position, to make me look like things bad, and so on.
- 46:10Speaker 2: The second part is where he say only also promoting a song that making me look like a pedophile right, that's what it is, the song trying to claim Drakeake drake is a pedo, and so on, and like gay minor and so on and so on and so on.
- 46:26Speaker 2: Right, what the hell does that have to do with family?
- 46:30Speaker 2: Every carnival is have some road match that organic and cannot be stopped.
- 46:37Speaker 2: Like they, not like us, right, they're not like us.
- 46:40Speaker 2: Was organic hit.
- 46:41Speaker 2: It can't be stopped because all the bots and thing he said they used to promote the song.
- 46:45Speaker 2: When zachary graduate from bagan school of business or wherever he held the primary school is where he went to and they played, they not like us in the graduation, them little children singing along with every bots cannot do that.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Bots cannot have that kind of cultural impact, right?
- 47:04Speaker 2: It don't matter how much you could push a song, you could promote something.
- 47:06Speaker 2: You see, when the people love it.
- 47:08Speaker 2: And I hear many, many soca artists talk over the years and they say when you sing a song and the children love it, you know you have a hit.
- 47:15Speaker 2: So to me and I have this issue with Marshall Montano a lot, right, I remember a year he sang a song.
- 47:26Speaker 2: To me that was the best song he sang that year.
- 47:43Speaker 2: But for some reason and them men know better than me, right so when them deciding what song they're going to push, I want to say that that year he was pushing Ants or one of them songs, right, and I could give you a list of them.
- 47:59Speaker 2: You know, you see, ants, ministry of Road, all them songs.
- 48:01Speaker 2: Here he had a song To hold me back, to hold me back to me it's the biggest song.
- 48:06Speaker 2: But again, them fellas know better than me.
- 48:08Speaker 2: So them fellas don't pick a song and they know it, the formula and all these kind of things.
- 48:13Speaker 2: But to me when people latch on to a song that is the song to go with.
- 48:16Speaker 2: You can't deny that song.
- 48:18Speaker 2: But them Ministry of Road match a lot, a few road match.
- 48:21Speaker 2: Well, under under the people partnership we win.
- 48:24Speaker 2: So come on every year.
- 48:25Speaker 2: Them songs wasn't good like ministry road and them thing if.
- 48:30Speaker 2: If somebody else sing that, that cannot have the kind of groundswell that it would take to win what I call a genuine and organic road match.
- 48:37Speaker 2: I think the same about family.
- 48:39Speaker 2: I don't think it's a great song, I think it's a pretty bad song.
- 48:41Speaker 2: It's just right there with conch shell.
- 48:43Speaker 2: I guess people will latch on to it and think because of the concept of the song, because when you're going to feta and carnival have such a celebratory mood when you hear the one part we moving up there would be family.
- 48:55Speaker 2: That bong to get energy that is the end of the good part of the song is not a good song.
- 49:00Speaker 2: And that's just in my opinion, even if you want to take my biased opinion out akasi ho.
- 49:06Speaker 2: Family is one of the top five soaker of all time, especially when it's a man who left.
- 49:16Speaker 2: So you're telling me right, baron Jammer is 99.
- 49:22Speaker 2: And Family is number five.
- 49:25Speaker 2: That is a better song, that is a better soaker.
- 49:28Speaker 2: They say the 101 greatest soaker songs of all time.
- 49:32Speaker 2: You're telling me Family better than that.
- 49:35Speaker 2: They say there's Gina and Dinah, rosita and Clementina Not only listening the corner posing Bet your life is something they're selling, not on the list.
- 49:47Speaker 2: And if you catch them broken you can get them all for nothing.
- 49:52Speaker 2: Don't make a row.
- 49:53Speaker 2: The Yankees gone and Sparrow take over now.
- 49:58Speaker 2: And it's not on the list.
- 49:59Speaker 2: But family Lay, lay, lay, lay, lay, lay.
- 50:01Speaker 2: It's not on the list, but family.
- 50:04Speaker 2: Is this song not good at all?
- 50:05Speaker 2: If you want to play it on the Huxap 100, let's play it somewhere else.
- 50:07Speaker 2: You want to talk about organic road match?
- 50:08Speaker 2: That cannot be stopped.
- 50:09Speaker 2: Number four Palance.
- 50:13Speaker 2: It's going to be hard to argue that Palance is not up there.
- 50:16Speaker 2: Think what you want to think about JW and Blaze, if them is still a thing.
- 50:19Speaker 2: Or Blaze and JW say the words separately now, but they write up here say JW and Blaze.
- 50:24Speaker 2: Palance is the ultimate carnival party anthem, a track that electrifies crowds with its commanding energy and simple yep, oh, this is what they mean.
- 50:32Speaker 2: They mean the top 100 list for easy forward.
- 50:35Speaker 2: These DJs ah, oli almost had me, oli almost had me, oli almost had me they made the top 100 list for easy forward and fat, that's why they like Haima or something.
- 50:46Speaker 2: So when they say when you don't know what to play, they say, oh, fadu was giving everybody hand.
- 50:51Speaker 2: Go up and say, ah, man, is that hand up?
- 50:55Speaker 2: List it?
- 50:56Speaker 2: It's not nothing to do with the greatest soaker of all time, but again, if he was doing greatest soaker of all time, it would be hard not to put JW and Blaze there, right?
- 51:03Speaker 2: Jw and Blaze's?
- 51:04Speaker 2: Palance is the ultimate carnival party anthem, a track that electrifies crowds with its commanding energy and simple yet powerful call to action.
- 51:11Speaker 2: Call to action is what you want, right?
- 51:12Speaker 2: I get it.
- 51:13Speaker 2: The song's chant-like chorus became a cultural phenomenon, uniting revelers in a shared moment of unbridled joy and celebration.
- 51:21Speaker 2: Palance is more than a song.
- 51:23Speaker 2: It's a movement that forever changed the carnival experience.
- 51:27Speaker 2: Fair, fair, that means you see, I read the thing wrong.
- 51:32Speaker 2: I was abroad and all you couldn't tell me it's a forward list.
- 51:35Speaker 2: That means pop a bottle somewhere in this list.
- 51:37Speaker 2: That's why splinters splinters on the list and vagabond Dead or Al alive deserve to be there.
- 51:44Speaker 2: Tc Jammer's big, big song, that deserve to be there.
- 51:47Speaker 2: It's a forward list.
- 51:48Speaker 2: It's about who could get the most forward.
- 51:50Speaker 2: In fact that's what they mean to when they put Trinidad and Bone or High Mass, because when the intro come on for High Mass or the intro come on for Trinity to the Bone, the crowd response is the same.
- 52:04Speaker 2: But I want to bet my life now that Papa Bottle somewhere.
- 52:06Speaker 2: Ah, number 42.
- 52:07Speaker 2: Papa Bottle hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, papa, when you don't study soccer at all and you don't listen to nothing and you don't listen to no kind of new music and you don't know what coming next and you don't listen to nothing and you don't listen to no kind of new music and you don't know what coming next and you don't know what to play and you don't practice and you never see turntables outside of a laptop, yet you're going to play pop-up bottle.
- 52:29Speaker 2: I like it.
- 52:31Speaker 2: Then you're top.
- 52:32Speaker 2: 10 is why you come to top.
- 52:33Speaker 2: But number four hard to argue with.
- 52:35Speaker 2: Hard to argue with jw blaze that that that balance was too big a song that year for carnival and one of the things I would use to judge the top list, top 100 in the amateur fact is longevity.
- 52:48Speaker 2: That is why it will always be surprising for me when a song like Somebody Go Jam you, somebody Go Jam you, or I'm the Sweet Soaker man, which is not on the list.
- 52:59Speaker 2: Those things, things to me that stand Four and five decades, and thing With the simplest of the lyrics You're eerie like a fairy, you're thicker than mud Hanging up my body, you're crawling my blood.
- 53:13Speaker 2: Oh, somebody Goja, I have a bias for them thing.
- 53:17Speaker 2: Because Some of these songs On this list, like when you see Hot, hot, hot 1988, the men who making this, I ask for them things.
- 53:21Speaker 2: Because some of these songs on this list, like when you see Hot, hot, hot 1988, the men who making this list in Born and this song still there, right there with them, I'm not sure if some of the things on the list will well again.
- 53:33Speaker 2: If them fellas in Chad Splinters Go Last 150 years, if them playing the music until even Come Home by Nyla blackburn at 16 and as I see that that is number 16, you know it's 15 dollar wine, one of the greatest soca vault.
- 53:53Speaker 2: Anyway, let me, let me, let me stick to my guns here.
- 53:55Speaker 2: Number three oh okay, rupee jump is number three.
- 53:58Speaker 2: I apologize.
- 53:59Speaker 2: I apologize to these, to the list makers, because I was wondering how tempted to touch would it be?
- 54:03Speaker 2: Rupee biggest song, but number three is.
- 54:05Speaker 2: You make me want to jump.
- 54:07Speaker 2: Let me read what they say rupee's jump is a high energy soca anthem that has become a stapler at carnival celebrations worldwide.
- 54:13Speaker 2: It's an in and outside of carnival like if you listen to hot 97 and them doing summer jam and thing, you're listening to the commentary on that jump.
- 54:22Speaker 2: Go in and play.
- 54:22Speaker 2: It's infectious rhythm and motivational lyrics inspire unity and joy, encouraging everyone to embrace the vibrant spirit of Carnival.
- 54:31Speaker 2: This timeless track remains a crowd favorite, crowd favorite, embodying the excitement and freedom that define the Carnival experience.
- 54:40Speaker 2: I could agree with that.
- 54:41Speaker 2: A rupee jump could be hard to leave out.
- 54:43Speaker 2: Kevin Little, turn Me On.
- 54:44Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 54:46Speaker 1: Let me round you and caress my body.
- 54:49Speaker 1: You got me going crazy.
- 54:52Speaker 1: Turn me on, turn me on.
- 54:57Speaker 2: Kevin Little's Turn Me On is a global soccer classic that blends Caribbean vibes with smooth R&B influences, creating a song that transcends the genre and brought soca to the world stage.
- 55:07Speaker 2: Its sultry melody and catchy chorus captured hearts internationally, making it one of the most iconic soca hits of all time.
- 55:17Speaker 2: People mightn't like that.
- 55:18Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that.
- 55:19Speaker 2: Hits of all time.
- 55:23Speaker 2: People might like that.
- 55:23Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that.
- 55:24Speaker 2: At number two again, if them fellas counting forward or they counting what songs have international appeal?
- 55:27Speaker 2: Because when they're done with carnaval here, they're gonna play carnaval in ibiza and carnaval on the boat what they call the boat again uber, soaker cruise and all these places.
- 55:37Speaker 2: You could understand why they will put these things.
- 55:40Speaker 2: Because if you don't know what to play and you don't know the crowd and you you know you're reaching party star time.
- 55:47Speaker 2: It has some djs getting this reaching party star time them.
- 55:50Speaker 2: Don't go and listen to what other djs play.
- 55:52Speaker 2: And when you go in there and you say you make me wanna, you go sound like a genius of a DJ.
- 56:00Speaker 2: You go sound like a genius of a DJ.
- 56:03Speaker 2: The number one song from the time I hear a 101 list of Soca and I know who was doing the list, which was Hoppy and Scorch and the crew there.
- 56:11Speaker 2: I could have made a safe bet that the number one song would have been Marshall Montano and Destro.
- 56:17Speaker 2: It is hard to say that this is not the number one song in Soca.
- 56:23Speaker 2: I would love to hear people's thoughts on this, especially some of the elders people who have run Carnival for a little longer than the people who make this list and myself, and so on.
- 56:33Speaker 2: Because if I make a list of top 100 Soca, should I make a list of top 100 Soca?
- 56:39Speaker 2: Do I have the time?
- 56:40Speaker 2: Do I have the time to attempt this?
- 56:48Speaker 2: And I I also don't want to deal with it because it don't matter what it is, it can't make everybody happy, right, it can't make everybody happy.
- 56:51Speaker 2: So people will be upset regardless of what list you make.
- 56:54Speaker 2: But I'm not sure if I make a list, because if I'm looking at top 100 soaker of all time, I will look at things like crowd response, like what they're looking at here.
- 57:05Speaker 2: Clearly.
- 57:05Speaker 2: I will look at international impact.
- 57:07Speaker 2: I will look at how well it well, I guess that's international appeal.
- 57:13Speaker 2: I was gonna say, oh well, it cross genres and play internationally and so on.
- 57:16Speaker 2: Uh, but I will.
- 57:17Speaker 2: I will have to look at things like lyrics and delivery and I had to look at all them things and it is hard to see that Marshall and Destro could be moved from that top spot.
- 57:31Speaker 2: If I was to make a list, they would probably be number one as well.
- 57:36Speaker 2: We say Marshall Montana and Destra Garcia's song it's Carnival, is considered the greatest, one of the greatest soccer songs ever because it perfectly captures the essence of Carnival in its sound, energy and message.
- 57:46Speaker 2: It's Carnival is not just a song, it's an anthem that embodies the energy, culture and spirit of soccer and carnival.
- 57:54Speaker 2: It's timeless appeal and cultural significance make it a masterpiece in the genre and one of the greatest soca songs ever created.
- 58:01Speaker 2: I agree, I concur.
- 58:03Speaker 2: I concur, dr scotch, I concur, you know.
- 58:06Speaker 2: I mean I, I don't.
- 58:07Speaker 2: I don't feel it.
- 58:07Speaker 2: Even if you don't put number one, I'm not seeing how you're making a list like this and not putting it on your top 10.
- 58:12Speaker 2: Uh, again, my, my top 10 would have probably have songs like bushead in it too, because of what it meant when two of them come together, like the cultural impact when bungee and marshall come and sing together.
- 58:23Speaker 2: I would not put family there.
- 58:25Speaker 2: I don't like the song.
- 58:26Speaker 2: I don't find it's a very good song at all.
- 58:28Speaker 2: Uh, a little surprised that one of the runaway road matches Granted that my number one song in Destra and Marshall did not win road match.
- 58:35Speaker 2: In my opinion the song built slowly and slowly and slowly over that carnival.
- 58:40Speaker 2: Again, marshall had choose to push another song, that carnival.
- 58:43Speaker 2: I think he still lost.
- 58:44Speaker 2: I think Fehan had win that year and he wasn't beating Fehan, but this was his song to push.
- 58:49Speaker 2: This was the only song and this song it wasn't displayed as it beat.
- 58:53Speaker 2: I song to push.
- 58:53Speaker 2: This was the only song and this song, uh, it wasn't displayed as it'd be.
- 58:56Speaker 2: I can't remember.
- 58:56Speaker 2: But this song it just continued to build and it lasts inside and outside a carnival and it's one of the things that I would have definitely judged.
- 59:01Speaker 2: So I was a little surprised when I didn't see full extreme higher up on this list, or shadow stranger or even marshall big truck.
- 59:11Speaker 2: Some, some of they'll question it right.
- 59:15Speaker 2: Plenty songs on the list.
- 59:18Speaker 2: Let me say plenty songs on the list look like okay, we have to put voice and we have to put kiss and we have to put, not saying that them fellas don't deserve it, you know, but it look like plenty massaging her ego and plenty.
- 59:31Speaker 2: Because again, I saw somebody in the comments say Olatunjiji engine room, such a masterpiece of a song, not on the list at all.
- 59:38Speaker 2: Somehow mickle tasia dna song there, but savannah grass not.
- 59:42Speaker 2: This it's kind of it's kind of odd.
- 59:44Speaker 2: It's like it was savannah grass there.
- 59:46Speaker 2: I did see kes somewhere.
- 59:48Speaker 2: But some of some of these songs, really not that they're not good songs, but I mean the order of it have a lot to be desired.
- 59:57Speaker 2: But since Oli put Shadow so low down on the list, and I just want to say for those who might be interested and those who are so inclined, dingolay was in fact on the list, don't mind his number 66.
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: But Dingolay is one of the greatest soakers.
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: When you listen to the melody of Dingolay and the lyrics in Dingolay, it would have had to be higher on my list.
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: But I have a message directly from Mr Winston Bailey, directly to the creators of this list yeah, yeah, yeah ¶¶ ¶ Society mad.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: Here in Trinidad.
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: They take it for fun Pushing me around the world.
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: Know my music Is solid like brick.
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: The people enjoy it, they, they jump to the beat.
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: But when they have competition the judges will swear.
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: I am a comedian so I ain't going back there.
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: I want to catch them, judges in hell, to have them jumping, just jumping, no stopping.
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: I want to wake them up with some blows and have them jumping, just jumping, no fooling.
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: And when I tell you jump, jump, you've got to jump, jump.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: And when I tell you stop, keep jumping up.
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: And if I catch you jumping up slow, I'll bust you too.
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: Tell them, go ahead, just know I'll be there.
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: And when I am gone my name will live on All who condemn me.
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: I am speaking to you Keep on condemning till your time is due.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: You better be careful, don't come down in here.
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: I'll rip out your gizzard and put in a coconut shell.
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: Thank you, no fooling.
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you jump, jump, you gotta jump Jump.
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you stop, Keep jumping up.
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: And if I catch you jumping up slow, I'll bust you too.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: Me the school days I heard they say I was bad.
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: But when I break beach myself, I would teach Myself, I would teach.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: They want me to learn everything in science.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: I wanted to learn how to make people dance.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Now I come to prove what I learn secretly.
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: They bring men to judge me who have degrees in stupidity.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: I want to catch some judges in hell to have them jumping Just jumping, no stopping.
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: I want to wake them up with some blows and have them jumping Just jumping, no fooling.
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: And when I tell you jump, jump, you've got to jump jump.
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: And when I tell you stop, keep jumping up.
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: And if you stop, keep jumping up.
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: And if I catch you jumping up slow, I'll bust you too.
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: Ooh, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Somehow like I feel in the list.
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: Right, I'm watching the list again good, because I don't want to shortchange nobody and I don't want to overpay Time tight, because I'm watching the Bajan Invasion good, which was a critical part of 90s and early 2000s soccer.
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: Right, the Bajan invasion.
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: I happy to see Things like Burning Flames, wookiee, wookiee.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: I happy to see Burning Flames Swinging engine, no matter where they was on the list.
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: I glad to see Alison Hines With Faluma and others.
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: I glad to see Rupi with Jump and others.
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: But I feel like you see how they just the way they leave out crazy Edwin Ayong, which I don't know how you could leave out that.
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: I feel if your name are winning it, you have a problem because scrunter in there at all, no, no, scrunter, none, zero, zip, 100, zooka and no scrunter.
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: But when you only pay real attention to what's going on on the islands.
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: But once your name has a win in it, we have a problem.
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: No, edwin Yearwood at all.
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: None, none.
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: Thank you, we'll be right back.
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: You hear that song.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: Let's just hear it Like my bedtime notifications.
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: Thank you, from the country, street to town.
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: Don't stop this jam.
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: Pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me up, pop me.
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: I jump in.
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh.
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: That's nice.
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: If we vibe feelin' right, rock me steady all night.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: If we vibe feelin' right, rock me steady all night, move me.
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: Thing boy.
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: Oh gosh, oh gosh.
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: Music is my blood.
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: I watch it over about five, six times.
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: I ain't seen not a single, not a single Edwin Yearwood.
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: But again, I want to commend the people who make the list right, because this is something that we need more of.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: I would love to see more critics of the list come up with a list.
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: I'm not a young man, you know, and it's like solo meal.
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: So I don't know if I could have the time to sit down and come up with a hundred soaker.
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: Maybe one day I will do a top 10.
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: I will need some contributors to that, because or should I just do the top 10?
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: In my opinion, I could give a little top 10 soaker list in my opinion, you know, but it, in my opinion, in a way go take for some time.
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: It'll take some doing and I want to say that, all right, all right, easy, don't share with me yet.
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: It takes a enormous amount of time and effort and argument and you could see in the room right, there seemed to be a little bit of an age gap in the room of people who was discussing this, because you could you get a sense that it was a fight to get some of the older songs there and if you don't know it, this is why you see, when you're doing things like this and I get that this is a Scorch promotion and they do.
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: Well, everybody was talking about Scorch right when that was done.
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: But if you want to do a top 100 soaker, let's do it the right way.
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: It has some people who you had to get in your room all people who hoppy and them have access to like.
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: When you see people like carl beaver, henderson and some of the fellows who see several eras of music so they could see when voice come out and the crowd reaction to voice and the way people move with soca, what songs last a long time and might have some foresight into what songs last a real long time.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: And you could also have some some people like the people who make this list here who could clearly see that maybe if my song like family that I don't like at all, could be one of the, could be one of the biggest songs of all time as as time go on, because whether I like family or not, you can't doubt the cultural impact of this song.
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: So I welcome more lists like this.
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: I encourage people to make their own list to the top 10 list if you want to do it in the comments, or send me all the top 10 lists.
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: I could play all the top 10 lists right here, and right here and right now, because I like the idea of starting more conversations around calypso, soca and kaiso.
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: So if nothing else, I commend them for that.
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: I I feel like, I feel like that is an important part of what has to be done and what was done there, and it's easy for somebody like me to come and pick apart people.
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: This right, because when you give me a top 100, I have something to critique.
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: If I had to start off from scratch creating a top 100, I in trouble and I myself.
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: Somebody go come and tell me, but you ain't put a single edwin yearwood.
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: I go forget somebody.
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: I go forget somebody, but I want to, I want to, I want to, I want to, um, I want to kind of hazard a guess right from, maybe, maybe just from doing this for a very, very long time, I could tell, I could tell you one of the people that are very unlikely to forget.
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: But them fellas, don't play this in party.

- 1:13:10Speaker 2: We didn't get a fine space for this.
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: No space for this.
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: No space for this.
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: I was standing by the Grand Strand Up in the Savannah Digging this Indian girl Beating bass band Coming up in the spa With symphony in G A ring by Clyde Bradley.
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: Make the spectators leave the stand and just run out to the band.

- 1:14:45Speaker 2: Only know I have some bad habits right and they go hate my top 100 listeners.
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: But in my top 100, I had to find space for this too.
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: But they are no use for this in Feta game.
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: They ain't going to try to play this.
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: Men, start losing a fellow show.

- 1:16:57Speaker 1: I want them, young men and them, to know.

- 1:18:00Speaker 1: She could make any Mr Bouncy head man watching Koki, yeah, but what this is like is the oil in the coin.
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: Is the oil in the coin that I've been looking?
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: to.
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: I want the young men and them to know, is the oil in the coin?
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: So two man must look good, be using oil with fire.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: I love Cohen the war.
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: Cohen the war have a song name.
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: I have a circle, a song name.
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: I have a circle, a circle of best friends, a circle of brethren.
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: I'm not a real friend, I'm not a problem, I'm on a mission, that's how it's going.
- 1:18:47Speaker 2: And there's not no knock on Coen Dubois.
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: And there's not no knock on nobody in the list, right, but all he want to tell me circle of best friends.
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: And there's not no knock on Kowindubwa.
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: And there's not no knock on nobody in the list, right.
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: But all you want to tell me circle of best friends, at number whatever number, all you put it at right, better than everything Calypso Rose ever sing it, more iconic than everything Rose ever sings.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: But Oli had no use for this.
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: I saw this old lady running calling out to she neighbor, ramsey, neighbor neighbor, come on, lord, me house on fire.
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: And if you hear she fire, fire, ain't me wire, start holding me head.
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: Well, I say tonight, lord, like somebody dead, because this old lady, she ain't living with nobody.
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: So I jump from me house and I start bawling like a crazy mouse, and if you hear me fire, fire, ain't she wire, papa, aye, aye, aye, oy, oy, oy, fire, fire, burn on top, baby don't.
- 1:20:50Speaker 2: One of the greatest things I respect about Hoppy right Kweisi, hoppy hopkinson right the local diddy before diddy started freak off and so on right.
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: One of the things I respected about him a lot is I remember it could have been when he launched scotch and he spoke about it many times before right, he talked about being on anthony chowlin on radio station red no, ojo 96.1.
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: I think he was there long before.
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: This was ojo and all his ojo thing.
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: Maybe he was one of the early men on 96.1 and one of the things I always respect him for talking about is he used to say he said boy, the chinese man know he think you know the chinese man know he think he say, but he was so specific to the format that everything had to be urban that he was trying to tell um chinese laundry at a time.
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: He could play little instrumentals, play different types of music, anything, and he was hell-bent on urban and he said boy, the man had real foresight.
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: But he was wrong about this one because look at, look at how much genres of music he's playing on Scorch.
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: It's one of the things I like Scorch 101 for, because they play a lot of genres of music and they don't talk in between too much.
- 1:22:01Speaker 2: So if I feel to listen to music, more than likely the radio station I'll put on is Scorch.
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: Outside of 100 Days of Parang or Christmas there's a Christmas episode.
- 1:22:11Speaker 2: Everybody Outside of 100 days of Christmas on 100, or blazing miles on a morning on 100.5.
- 1:22:20Speaker 2: I like to listen to Scorch because they're among the blends of music and I suspect that when I look at the list and there's a forward list, more than anything else or what, what you could ease if you don't know nothing about Soca and music, there should be a list of.
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: If you don't know nothing about soca and music, this should be a list of.
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: If you don't know nothing about soca at all, there's a hundred and one songs that could get you forward in a young people fit.
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: That would be a better way.
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: That would be a better way to label this list right.
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: But I'm disappointed in hoppy in particular, because hoppy's a man understand the culture and know music from long, long, long, long time, right, and they'd have nothing I play in here that Hoppy don't know and you might be surprised that he could get a verse and a chorus and a few too.
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: He know the songs, he know the music you understand.
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: So I feel like when he creates a list like this on his radio station, a list like this being created, it was an opportunity not just to start conversation and to promote Scorch, but to use your own thing that you used to say about laundry and come out of your format a little bit, expand it and educate some people.
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: Don't just use it as a list of 101 popular songs.
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: Use it as a list to educate people.
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: Travis, will them, fellas that know music, dj Adam or, if I see right in your room, in terms of the people who were there, it's not people who are ignorant to music and don't know soca music.
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: If Oli is going to do a 101 soca, the first thing Oli has to do before Oli goes to song is to write down artist.
- 1:23:44Speaker 2: Write down artist because that will stop you from forgetting some of these things and then lumping two and three songs together that have nothing to do with one another and Hoppy, with the knowledge that Hoppy have, off the top of his head, not even to research.
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: This was a real good opportunity, where the whole country tuned into this, to educate people about where Soca is, where it comes from, what songs are related to what, where artists come from, what, who patterned, who.
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: You understand.
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: It was a real opportunity to educate when you have everybody attention.
- 1:24:16Speaker 2: So when I see some of these songs here that I like a bumper is too real, it dangerous, I don't mind.
- 1:24:25Speaker 2: But looking dangerous.
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: I won't mind, but looking dangerous, I just want burning you.
- 1:24:29Speaker 2: Oh, party some of right the other day's not good songs, but when you're talking about top 101 soaker of all time and you have no Calypso Rose at all.
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: I can't take this time child.
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: It's too hard to mention, but I spend too small For the kind of bad I know.
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: What will happen Is this and this happen Is people like red, that people spend Murray Square Hut, patrick Street Hut, seller Street Hut, so I can stop.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Hey, I go to San Fernando, don't they have plenty tempo?
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: Thank you, I just find it's an opportunity lost.
- 1:25:46Speaker 2: Especially for a man like Hopi, because if it's a room full of people who is ignorant, right, I could understand it.
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: I could understand it.
- 1:25:54Speaker 2: I could understand it because and again, I understand the thing behind sparking conversation and them kind of thing.
- 1:26:01Speaker 2: But if you want to spark conversation you have to do it the right way.
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: When you make a list of 101 soca, especially when men still alive right here, or even men who pass and gone, but the family, they're listening it have certain names.
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: When they're making a list of the greatest hooker of all times, they cannot be left out for any reason.
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: What is that more iconic than these things?
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: But these things Kaplan Private Ryan Carnival Saturday and the Kaplan Paran Cruz and the Kaplan Caesar's Army but these things can't play in Private Ryan Carnival Saturday and it can't play in Paran Cruise and it can't play in Caesar's Army and it can't play on the road in certain sections.
- 1:26:54Speaker 2: Let me tell you something when you have young DJs in the mix, salute all the young DJs who was in there.
- 1:26:59Speaker 2: But when I put in young DJs in the mix, I want a little bit of Akeem and I want a little bit of that youth man Hottie who with young brother.
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: You know trainees like to party.
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: You know trainees like to party.
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: You play social, you start off on philosophy.
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: You know you can't move up yet.
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: Thank you to me.
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: All night Let me feel right when the tongue on fire.
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: The rhythm you drumming must make me first fire.
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: All day Let me break away when it's time for fun.
- 1:28:02Speaker 1: Honey, I said to the weapon Help me, help me, help me.
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: I was so glad to see Sunil Dems stay in the river.
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: I always remember when Sunil Demsta sang that song.
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: Her voice was singing like mine by the time.
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: Carnival Sunday and them thing come.
- 1:28:18Speaker 2: The amount of wet Listen fat girls is the wickedest set of people in the world.
- 1:28:24Speaker 2: When they start a wet Sunil Demsta with all his beer, malta water and they hit it hard, wash wet.
- 1:28:33Speaker 2: I cannot imagine I wasn't fettin' on Johnny King wet me long time.
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: But again, when you're talking about 101 iconic songs from the time the songs start, of any age.
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: They know it and if they don't know it, they ought to know it.
- 1:28:49Speaker 2: But I think the biggest miss, the biggest miss right in the whole idea of putting out a list of 101 I want you to keep in mind again is a promotional tool let me keep that in mind is a promotional tool, right, that they put out again to promote their radio station and so on it.
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: It makes sense, right, when they point out a list like this and the goal is to get people to listen to the radio station.
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: Let me put it to you this way right, I hear playing Kaizo, calypso and Soka every single week.
- 1:29:28Speaker 2: Salute to Kaizo Code here.
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: Playing Calypso, kaizo soca, every week, right, and I just tried to figure out all right was my opening song.
- 1:29:42Speaker 2: A wise man tell me the other day, right, when you're, when you're, when you're doing things, when you're out there, like when we travel, you just remember the beginning, the end and the high point.
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: You say you can't remember the whole vacation.
- 1:29:55Speaker 2: Right, you just remember the beginning, the end and your high point.
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: So when I structure a podcast episode, I pay a lot of attention to the beginning, the end and the high point.
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: I try to make sure that I start with a nice little song that could get people in the mood.
- 1:30:13Speaker 2: I put myself in the mood sometimes too.
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: I try to make sure as well that I end with a song that leave people feeling right.
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: Where I always remember one episode I ended on a sad note and I always remember the feedback I get from that episode and I say I'll never do that again.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: I'll never leave people on a sad note after they listen to this.
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: This is supposed to uplift your spirits and make you feel good, right?
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: So I can't leave people on a sad note like that.
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: You know it ain't right, it ain't right.
- 1:30:44Speaker 2: So I'm very, very conscious of that and I'm also very, very, very conscious about the high points in the podcast and the high points in the podcast for me, let me tell you, over the years of doing this, it has some things that stand out to me a lot right.
- 1:31:02Speaker 2: One of the things that make me very, very proud in this podcast is that my mother does listen and my father does listen and my wife is listening and those things make me feel very good.
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: I have some very good friends who know me for years and years and years and they listen.
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: One of the things that make me feel very, very proud is that strangers who I've never met before and I probably will never meet, they listen.
- 1:31:29Speaker 2: The feedback that I get in the comments when somebody tells me boy, I only trained this morning and I'm missing you, when you see I'm putting an episode last week, they say on the train this morning they say I had to listen to this episode over and over.
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: I take that seriously.
- 1:31:43Speaker 2: That is high point to me.
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: But you know what is the highest of the high points for me?
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: When I walk around this house and I hear zachary humming along with a tune that come out before I born, because he get to like something from this podcast.
- 1:31:57Speaker 2: I have a little fellow in new york they call kai.
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: So little, my guy, kai.
- 1:32:01Speaker 2: When I get the feedback from kai, mother, kai, mother say boy, he listening to this intently, he liked this song.
- 1:32:08Speaker 2: Kai ain't nowhere.
- 1:32:09Speaker 2: Some of these songs, most of these songs on this list.
- 1:32:11Speaker 2: Kai ain't born on scorch list.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: He, he, he was not there.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: He ain't born on Scorch list.
- 1:32:14Speaker 2: He was not there.
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: He ain't started FET yet.
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: So all these songs is old school to him.
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: Even in 2022, they're old school to him.
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: They have a little fellow they call Lucian.
- 1:32:24Speaker 2: When I hear from his mother, I get the feedback that he like this song or he like that song.
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: That does make me feel good.
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: That is my high point.
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: So if I come in here to play Kaizo and Soko, if I find myself so fast to say I could make a list of 101 Soko and Kalipso, my high point is to make sure that certain names never left off, because I have a responsibility to Zachary and Kai and Lucian and the young Bartholomews and them who is listening to this?
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: Every week it come out.
- 1:32:57Speaker 2: I have a responsibility to them to make sure that the little I know about Calypso and Soka that might have passed in the generation before me or stay with me.
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: Somebody must carry it on to the next generation, so they have no way I could name something 101 most iconic or I want to call the name right, you know 101 greatest soaker hits of all time.
- 1:33:23Speaker 2: If I had to do that, it's them little chariot in my mind while I'm making the list for that and have certain mistakes we could forgive and certain things could be choice and certain things could be preference.
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: But when you name the list soaker and it have no soaker at all on the list from this man, you're laying them fellas down.
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: Thank you, I can't play.
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: I can't write.
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: I can't write music.
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: Yet every day and every night I create it with music.
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: My system is rhythm, simplicity and melody.
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: My tunes are happy and the music sweet.
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: If you don't dig the melody, you will dig the beat.
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: I make music, sweet music.
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: I'm feeling your mind and your body just can't resist music, music, music, sweet music.
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: I'm feeling your mind and your body just can't resist music, music, music, yeah, sweet music.
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: No matter what you say or do, the magic of my music has you.
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: Music, yeah, sweet music.
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: Take this again.
- 1:35:33Speaker 1: Music, hey, take it Music.
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: Oh, oh, Take it.
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: Music, music.
- 1:35:50Speaker 1: I tried to be totally musical.
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: That's why, you see, I'm super sensational, this spirit of music, oh, this is me entirely.
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: Music, music, music, music, music, sweet music.
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: I'm feeling your mind in the back of the sky.
- 1:36:36Speaker 3: This is music, music, music, yeah.
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: Music.
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: I feel like Hoppy missed an opportunity, as one of the men who were educated in the genre of soca music and calypso music and where it come from, to leave out Lord Shorty, shorty, I, garfield blackman, the creator of this genre, soaker, the creator of the word soaker, I don't think I.
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: I feel like it's again.
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: You ain't gonna play that on your parent cruise.
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: This, this is not song that will play in popular fete with scorch and he likes train.
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: Right, this is not an air committee fete song, but it's an opportunity for somebody like hoppy to put these things on the leg strain.
- 1:37:15Speaker 2: Right, this is not an air committee fet song, but it's an opportunity for somebody like Hoppy to put these things on the list, acknowledging the creator of the genre and the art form, the man who paved the way for everybody who on this list he grand-children on the list and he ain't make the list with nothing at all, even if it's an opportunity to put him there so that younger people who is your audience?
- 1:37:32Speaker 2: Happy is?
- 1:37:33Speaker 2: We age, you know, but his audience always young.
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: One of the things I admire about happy a lot is he always turned to youth, he always surrounded by youth and he always creating for youth and when youth is your audience.
- 1:37:45Speaker 2: Another thing in marketing is called target marketing.
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: Right, when you have a target audience that is who you, who your product design, for who your product you had to take your target audience, have a thing called a holistic marketing concept.
- 1:37:57Speaker 2: And in business now, all you hear about is sustainability and diversity.
- 1:38:02Speaker 2: Equity and inclusion is an important thing.
- 1:38:05Speaker 2: When you have a target audience that young, so not just and I don't I'm not saying this to say that hoppy feeding off of the youth but when you have a business and it's selling to youths, you can't just feed all for the youths, you have to feed the youths too.
- 1:38:17Speaker 2: And I think it's a lost opportunity to not have the great Rashoti on that list.
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: You know what?
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: I mean the horns, sexy, yes.
- 1:38:47Speaker 1: Change the accent of carnival To a groovy, groovy, bacchanal Wailing expressing the old feeling to needs changing.
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: Wake up, people, examine your minds, get with it.
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: Get with it the change of the times.

- 1:41:23Speaker 2: Merry Christmas, happy New Year's.
- 1:41:25Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:41:26Speaker 2: But one of the few things I get to do with my little last voice that left, let me tell you about it.
- 1:41:37Speaker 2: I went to on friday night, I tell you, between work, travel, podcast and class on weekends, I tired, my voice tired, I stressed out.
- 1:41:42Speaker 2: But long in advance, my wife tell me the boy in the choir.
- 1:41:47Speaker 2: The boy is in the senior choir in fatima, right?
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: I remember my days in formal.
- 1:41:54Speaker 2: I was a choir boy too.
- 1:41:55Speaker 2: You know music, festival and all these kind of things.
- 1:41:57Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: So I feel good, I feel proud of the boy here in the choir, and so on.
- 1:42:02Speaker 2: I say you know what?
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: I'm going to take him and perform.
- 1:42:04Speaker 2: So my wife told me they have a concert.
- 1:42:06Speaker 2: Let me see if I can remember the name of the concert.
- 1:42:09Speaker 2: I think the name of the thing is Go Bag.
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: I don't know what Go Bag stands for.
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: Father Gregor will be upset.
- 1:42:20Speaker 2: Let me see if I can find it.
- 1:42:21Speaker 2: Go Bag, fatima, right, go Bag.
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: Let me see if I can do this on the fly.
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: How much time do we have Internet playing with me?
- 1:42:31Speaker 2: Go Bag, year of Jubilee.
- 1:42:34Speaker 2: That is the name of the show.
- 1:42:35Speaker 2: If I could quickly tell more, go back, mean we could move on, uh, from appearances and go back me and see no, go back, mean.
- 1:42:49Speaker 2: Here, you know it means something.
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: Right, there's something to do with that christmas concert in fat, right, take my word for it.
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: One day I will come here prepared, but it ain't going to be today, right?
- 1:43:01Speaker 2: So the show is a show that Fatima has been putting on for the last.
- 1:43:04Speaker 2: I think this is the sixth edition of the show, our Christmas concert in Fatima Hall.
- 1:43:12Speaker 3: The same hall where we used to go for Mayfair and grind people's daughter, dong Grinding.
- 1:43:16Speaker 2: It's a big Christmas concert, christmas concert in Fatima.
- 1:43:19Speaker 2: And I will say that I was very tired and when she asked me which night I want to go, I said none, because Friday night our class early.
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: Saturday morning, saturday night I'm tired from class all day.
- 1:43:31Speaker 2: Saturday, sunday, our football.
- 1:43:33Speaker 2: So that's out of the question.
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: So I say you know what, let me go the Friday night.
- 1:43:38Speaker 2: It was gifts of blue and gold.
- 1:43:40Speaker 2: I'm not a young man, I just come in, you know, sometimes I just come in late, but I just come in, go bag, mean gifts of blue and gold, right.
- 1:43:47Speaker 2: So we went the Friday night and a sick bad all day.
- 1:43:54Speaker 2: The boy only come in and check on me, daddy, all right, daddy.
- 1:43:56Speaker 2: And then they leave to go on it.
- 1:43:58Speaker 2: And I tell Pallas they say you know, when I see water more than flowers, you know you feel I should fight and go this thing, boy.
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: She say yeah, boy, better come.
- 1:44:08Speaker 2: It'll be so sad for him when he come off that stage and he acts with daddy and daddy home.
- 1:44:12Speaker 2: I said, right upon a thick shirt, upon a sweater, again mommy and albie come out.
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: You know, I mean the whole family.
- 1:44:19Speaker 2: One thing zachary have is supporting.
- 1:44:21Speaker 2: When you see he going and do something, he has support.
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: He have a tribe and I went to the go back.
- 1:44:27Speaker 2: I want to say that I'm very happy that I went.
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: I felt like a proud fatima boy.
- 1:44:30Speaker 2: I've not been the best fatima ex-student, I'm not very involved in his school and I suppose now is my time, as my wife keeps saying.
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: You know now that I'm a father of a Fatima boy and I have a chance to make amends for the shepherd name in Fatima.
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: Right, it wasn't so great, with God, kendall Wayne and Corey, it wasn't so good going down the years, right, but this boy doing good and doing his work and these things.
- 1:44:53Speaker 2: You know what I mean Participating in Fatima 5K, just like Barney.
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: I remember Barney winning that for me as well.
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: So I say you know what, I'll go in and watch the thing and maybe I will become more involved in Fatima because I admire the work that the Old Boys Association is doing.
- 1:45:07Speaker 2: So look to Foba.
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: I admire the work that's being done by the PSG, the parent support group.
- 1:45:18Speaker 2: I admire the work being done by them.
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: But go back was much more than I could have anticipated or bargained for the thing was at 250 and I told myself, in these hard times, in this banger season, what am I going to do but support Fatima?
- 1:45:32Speaker 2: So we reached down in the fit and I want to say that salute to mr noel.
- 1:45:37Speaker 2: Right, mr noel, I've been hearing about mr noel since zachary started fatima, as the choir teacher or the music teacher and all this kind of thing, and you know, when little boys admire teachers, it's something that we must pay attention to, because those teachers, you know, remember the same thing I say about your high beginning, the end, on the high point.
- 1:45:52Speaker 2: Like I remember my first days in fatima, I remember the last days and I remember the same thing I said about your high, the beginning, the end and the high point.
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: Like I remember my first days in Fatima, I remember the last days and I remember the teachers who make big impact on me, like Mr Ram Dass, who I spent a lot of time by as the Form 1 and 2 dean.
- 1:46:02Speaker 2: You know I spent a lot of time getting to know him in the dean's office, but he was also my under-14 cricket and football coach and you know he make an impact on me and help me shape what Fatima has been, like Mr Gibson, a content teacher.
- 1:46:15Speaker 2: You know they shape Mr Ram Singh, who make me love economics.
- 1:46:18Speaker 2: You remember.
- 1:46:18Speaker 2: You remember them high points over the years and I'll say that as an alum, that go bag show, gifts of Blue and Gold, is one of the high points for me and I saw why Zachary had this level of admiration for Mr Noel, because Mr noel put his whole self into this production.
- 1:46:35Speaker 2: It is a full musical production supported by, uh, several choirs junior choir, senior choir, mixed choir, including some girls from holy name convent, you know, I mean sister school of fatima, and the whole show was impressive, well orchestrated, the pan side playing a role.
- 1:46:55Speaker 2: They do a good job, as usual.
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: They have a rhythm section, do a good job.
- 1:47:00Speaker 2: The, uh, the, the, the, the.
- 1:47:04Speaker 2: Forgive me because I did have um, a program in front of me and so on, but Pallet Stacey ain't home and I don't know where I put the program.
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: But there's one particular youth man who's playing Pan in Fatima, who's, he's impressive when you see him play Pan.
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: He play a role in Fatima, parang side, who apparently win out the end part Parang, me didn't even know this.
- 1:47:26Speaker 2: Congratulations to Fatima, parang side.
- 1:47:28Speaker 2: Win out, the, win out the schools, parang or the secondary school's parent and you could see why the performance was epic.
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: The arrangement and performance was great.
- 1:47:38Speaker 2: I remember being around my little brothers in presentation college and seeing Mr and Mrs Lemack and Mr.
- 1:47:44Speaker 2: I could always see his face and then, when it's time to remember the man's name, I could never remember but the music teacher in Pre, in in prez and seeing the work that he used to put into the choir and, of course, before that, mr, mr and mrs lemac and I used to want zachary to go to prez because of that and mr lockhart is his name one day.
- 1:48:09Speaker 2: I remember mr lockhart, but mr lockhart.
- 1:48:13Speaker 2: And then the way, mean, the way.
- 1:48:14Speaker 2: The boys were well-rounded, all of them could play instruments and sing and it was such a well-rounded school.
- 1:48:19Speaker 2: But, boy, you can't take nothing away from Fatima because those choirs were amazing.
- 1:48:24Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the way the choir was lined up on the, the senior choir was lined up with some young boys.
- 1:48:30Speaker 2: Fat Zachary was one of six form ones in the senior choir young boys, fat zachary's one of six form ones when he senior choir, but I couldn't really see my boy on stage but I hear him booming coming through and the performances they were epic it was.
- 1:48:40Speaker 2: It was a whole musical along with some performances, and I just want to congratulate everybody who was involved in production of that, particularly mr noel.
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: And because it's a christmas episode, don't mind, everything we talked about was Kaizo.
- 1:48:53Speaker 2: I have a little selection.
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: Don't mind if I play a little selection to close out the episode, or maybe just one, and then we can get back focused on the parang as we come back together, because I do have.
- 1:49:04Speaker 2: I had to come back and talk to all about PNM and UNC screening right.
