Speaker 1: This was a long vacation.
2:43
Speaker 1: It was very interesting.
2:44
Speaker 1: I have plenty to fill all year and all year.
2:45
Speaker 1: No other good reason and no good excuse.
2:47
Speaker 1: But I did see indie playing dance.
2:49
Speaker 1: I see a little clips from that.
2:50
Speaker 1: And I saw Destro come and perform kind of valentine, which somehow this ended being in.
2:59
Speaker 1: A lot of people mind Destro only.
3:01
Speaker 1: So I don't know why they have no damn respect for Destro.
3:03
Speaker 1: I don't understand it.
3:04
Speaker 1: People understand who is Destro.
3:06
Speaker 1: I think people underestimate Destro, like if that one song with Marshall is Destro only.
3:11
Speaker 1: Song Destro catalog is untouchable.
3:14
Speaker 1: It's one of the greatest catalogs in Soka music Play with Destro.
3:19
Speaker 1: I saw her performing for the event and it looked like she was just kind of to perform the one song but the crowd called her back and when Destro went back and said the DJ didn't seem to have no tracks line up or something went wrong.
3:32
Speaker 1: And then Destro went into singing about 8 hits back to back to back to back, acapella on the stage, half naked.
3:41
Speaker 1: It was great, but acapella on the stage and had the crowd singing along with everyone in them songs, so I just went.
3:48
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, hey, prick.
3:50
Speaker 1: Salute to Destro, queen of back on earth.
3:53
Speaker 1: And as we're talking about queens, you know what I mean.
3:55
Speaker 1: This is like over the last week, we lose the queen that is Denise Plummer, and I promise you this, right, I am going to do a whole Denise Plummer tribute episode.
4:05
Speaker 1: Denise Plummer is another one of them.
4:08
Speaker 1: Whoever, like I, went through some trials over the last few weeks.
4:11
Speaker 1: I mean the air conditioning and all and I'm still sweating.
4:14
Speaker 1: So let me tell you a point, right, I just recovered from COVID Keyword recovering and I'm still feeling everything that comes along with COVID the COVID fatigue.
4:23
Speaker 1: I wake up with headaches and body pain every day.
4:26
Speaker 1: So the first week that I miss, I went Miami and come back, and when I came back from Miami, I wasn't feeling great.
4:32
Speaker 1: I'll tell you all about the Miami trip, right, because I ain't saying I get back into the local news yet and I ain't sure exactly what happened in this country right now, but I did take a runway with my wife and went Miami.
4:42
Speaker 1: Oh, you know that went.
4:44
Speaker 1: But somewhere along the Miami trip I catch the vids.
4:48
Speaker 1: I catch the vids.
4:48
Speaker 1: I thought COVID was done.
4:50
Speaker 1: I've been on this podcast saying COVID finished and done for a long, long time but um, it ain't done.
4:55
Speaker 1: It's very real.
4:56
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say this bout was worse than the first one, the first one I was able to record while I had COVID.
5:04
Speaker 1: This one I couldn't record.
5:06
Speaker 1: Them headaches and body pain is no joke.
5:08
Speaker 1: And the amount of fatigue you're feeling Like I'm feeling very, very tired and I'm suffering from brain fog.
5:13
Speaker 1: All these excuses I've given you according to where is the quality level of this episode?
5:17
Speaker 1: Because, to tell you the truth, I start off recording and I say welcome to 100 and 326th and Corey Shepherd podcast, and then, midway through checking it, when I pull up, 153 days to tell you how much fog going on, I know how much episodes I miss.
5:32
Speaker 1: But I will do a full dedication to Denise Plummer.
5:37
Speaker 1: Rest in peace to Denise Plummer.
5:38
Speaker 1: Condolences to her family.
5:40
Speaker 1: All the way is Denise Plummer family right.
5:42
Speaker 1: All the way is Denise Plummer family.
5:43
Speaker 1: So it's only right that we spend the time to go through some of her catalog, talk about our experiences following her, and I mean in doing the research for Denise Plummer's catalog.
5:55
Speaker 1: I feel like it's a little bit of the same I was saying about Destro and make me more wonder if people really understand what is Denise Plummer catalog and so on.
6:03
Speaker 1: I have a little brother that tell you about him, right, while he was in Dominican Republic in July Some rumors went around saying Denise Plummer passed away and when we started talking about it he said oh my god, denise Plummer.
6:14
Speaker 1: And he thought it was saucy Because, again, you had to remember, right, they kind of vex with youths who don't know who is Denise Plummer.
6:21
Speaker 1: I mean they kind of vex with them Because it's our role.
6:25
Speaker 1: It's our role to help them transition to understand these artists.
6:28
Speaker 1: And of course, denise Plummer did give her life over to her lord and savior and stop singing Calypso.
6:34
Speaker 1: She had a enormous respect for the culture.
6:35
Speaker 1: Still, she wasn't turning her back on the culture or bad talking, the kaiso and so on, but she certainly over the last maybe 10 years or so was not releasing any Calypso music.
6:47
Speaker 1: So some of her music and radio stations work and our popular platforms work, they're not going to really play Denise Plummer at any given time.
6:55
Speaker 1: So I feel like it's my role and responsibility to go back through so many music and give her a full episode of Denise Plummer, just so we could remember, cherish her, celebrate her, pay tribute to her, but also pass the baton to some other people who might not know how full her catalog was.
7:12
Speaker 1: If you're born, and grainy 80s, even up to the 90s, denise Plummer shape a lot of what we know as culture.
7:18
Speaker 1: Just salute Denise Plummer.
7:20
Speaker 1: Rest in Peace.
7:21
Speaker 1: Serp and Dolan, sister, her family, and I know you might be looking forward to hear some Denise Plummer, but I'll leave in it for an episode that is dedicated strictly for her, so that people could go back to that Anytime they're missing Denise and taking some of that Israeli-Israeli impressive catalog.
7:36
Speaker 1: And the more I read and do research about her and watch interviews and so on, the more you could see the genuinity in her personality, which I'm going to try my best to do a good job putting across.
7:48
Speaker 1: I'll try my best, but anyway we're here.
7:51
Speaker 1: Welcome to episode 153.
7:52
Speaker 1: Welcome back to everybody who's been listening.
7:53
Speaker 1: Welcome to all the new listeners.
7:55
Speaker 1: Thank you for tuning in.
7:56
Speaker 1: Sorry about the last two weeks, but we're here, we're here, we're here.
7:59
Speaker 1: So I'll tell you I'll take a little Miami break and a COVID break.
8:05
Speaker 1: What do you want to hear about?
8:06
Speaker 1: First Miami.
8:07
Speaker 1: Miami was nice to know.
8:09
Speaker 1: I learned something on this trip.
8:10
Speaker 1: I did not realize that my son is heading to do SAA this year and I like to get out a Trinidad.
8:18
Speaker 1: I don't want to say I like to travel, because I'm not one of those travel people who go and do all them European tours and go all over the place and see all kinds of new places.
8:26
Speaker 1: I just like to get out a Trinidad and I think that because Miami had no layover like no stops I end up in Miami every chance I get to leave here.
8:35
Speaker 1: I'm trying to change that now.
8:37
Speaker 1: So I'm open to people and the destinations.
8:39
Speaker 1: I'm looking for good cities to go to, where I could walk and enjoy a married life.
8:43
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that my son is 10 and I've never gone or like traveled with my wife alone.
8:51
Speaker 1: We always carry them all up all and, sad to say, I didn't think he'd go anywhere again.
8:57
Speaker 1: I enjoy the trip thoroughly.
8:58
Speaker 1: I enjoy waking up anytime we want.
9:00
Speaker 1: We could decide if to eat breakfast home or if to get breakfast on the road, we don't have to eat no fast food and be going, check, fillet every minute about all the places that he see advertised on YouTube and on TV that he wants to go.
9:11
Speaker 1: We could go to adult restaurants, have adult drinks and do adult things, and we did a lot of that.
9:19
Speaker 1: We did a lot of that.
9:20
Speaker 1: We do plenty walking.
9:22
Speaker 1: Thankfully, usually around August in Miami is real hot and it's prohibitive.
9:27
Speaker 1: Well, you remember my last year Miami trip and I went to the zoo.
9:30
Speaker 1: It was bad.
9:30
Speaker 1: It was very hot and hard to navigate and I still had the issues with my foot, but this time I could walk.
9:35
Speaker 1: I was pretty good everywhere I went and it was overcast most of the time.
9:38
Speaker 1: Most of it was raining a lot too.
9:40
Speaker 1: So we save plenty money on Ubers.
9:42
Speaker 1: We walk all over the place.
9:44
Speaker 1: I finally went to some to do some sightseeing.
9:46
Speaker 1: There are a place called Windwood walls.
9:48
Speaker 1: That was nice is our outdoor street art display.
9:51
Speaker 1: But I have a Brejens of Mobile Edmunds.
9:54
Speaker 1: He tells me listen, don't just go in.
9:56
Speaker 1: He said, just walk around the area.
9:58
Speaker 1: The whole area is at display and it's full of street art.
10:01
Speaker 1: And so said, so done.
10:02
Speaker 1: We live in Woodwalls.
10:02
Speaker 1: We saw the displays there was really very nice.
10:05
Speaker 1: I realized I had to up my game all the other.
10:07
Speaker 1: Up my game, right.
10:08
Speaker 1: I see, in paintings and things I like, I started to develop fine tastes, fine tastes and preferences.
10:14
Speaker 1: Right, somebody tell me, do a Patreon for this podcast.
10:18
Speaker 1: The other day Now, after I realized that my I've champagne taste and Moby pockets, I might well be doing a Patreon where I could do a second episode for the week.
10:27
Speaker 1: But let it pay me.
10:28
Speaker 1: I'm going to make sure that I could go over there and buy paintings that are seeing that I like for 10 and 15 thousand US dollars.
10:35
Speaker 1: Well, you got to fund my aspirations.
10:41
Speaker 1: But yeah, windwood walls was nice.
10:42
Speaker 1: I recommend that to anybody.
10:44
Speaker 1: We went across the farmers market and the Sky Museum.
10:47
Speaker 1: That was nice.
10:47
Speaker 1: We met some people who I mean.
10:49
Speaker 1: For any farmers market it was much smaller than I thought but but worth it still.
10:55
Speaker 1: We get to meet up a fellow who doing I think it's Jerry D Manning.
10:58
Speaker 1: Oh God, I was supposed to take the man named Matelomoto mentioned in the money podcast.
11:02
Speaker 1: Yes, look for Jerry.
11:03
Speaker 1: Every Sunday morning the Sky Museum, kappa, farmers Market, the men doing some brisket and some pulled pork and some mac and cheese and things to look at.
11:12
Speaker 1: The mouth is good, them boys good.
11:14
Speaker 1: So that was nice.
11:15
Speaker 1: It was nice being able to walk around and stuff and it's funny enough right?
11:20
Speaker 1: Well, I keep telling Stacy that we just explore areas because we always and brickel there and we take over stuff everywhere.
11:27
Speaker 1: We don't really know the place.
11:29
Speaker 1: So when we left with no walls and we walk through just looking at houses and the streets out, I saw in the window of a store like chocolate being made, like a big vat of chocolate with a memory grandmother, and they used to make ice cream long time.
11:43
Speaker 1: Well, they used to make ice cream and the ice cream is to turn in a big, just picture, very big one of them on the ground that turn in automatically.
11:49
Speaker 1: And I see in the chocolate and no man like me, a greedy man like me, a gone in, I carry this.
11:55
Speaker 1: And there was a Jewish fellow who was extremely helpful and very, very nice and he's like you want to try something, yet A whole bunch of bits of chocolate and trying and stuff.
12:05
Speaker 1: Then he had all.
12:08
Speaker 1: Everything was great, right.
12:09
Speaker 1: And I realized no other buy something.
12:11
Speaker 1: I didn't plan to buy nothing, I just want to see how that chocolate thing working, how it making chocolate in that big vat.
12:17
Speaker 1: And he gave me something.
12:19
Speaker 1: He say you like passion fruit.
12:21
Speaker 1: So I find it strange for a Jewish person.
12:23
Speaker 1: He's like try it.
12:26
Speaker 1: And what he did was he make chocolate bars out of I don't have to call them chocolate bars because it's made out of passion fruit and have the texture of chocolate but have the cake like passion fruit.
12:35
Speaker 1: It was nice and someone covered it pistachios and stuff.
12:39
Speaker 1: So he I don't know if he pick up the accent or the fact that a new passion fruit.
12:44
Speaker 1: But he asked me.
12:45
Speaker 1: He said where from?
12:45
Speaker 1: I say I'm from Trinidad.
12:46
Speaker 1: He said boy, a Trinidadian man, teach me everything I know about making chocolate.
12:51
Speaker 1: So welcome to this store.
12:52
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not how things is happening.
12:55
Speaker 1: I don't know it's called that serendipity, the love attraction when is?
12:59
Speaker 1: I don't know where it's called that, but he said that he learned the cocoa industry from a Trinidadian guy who used to work out to the university and was on the cocoa board and so on.
13:07
Speaker 1: And it's making forget sometimes what we really have.
13:09
Speaker 1: I like sometimes just take for granted what we have.
13:12
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if people know that the cocoa that comes out of Trinidad and Tobago is rated as somebody top cocoa in the world you dig.
13:21
Speaker 1: By the way, my name is Bendy Coco.
13:24
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was the best way to name his store.
13:27
Speaker 1: So if you're in Winwood, just go and look for according to your lifestyle and where you like, and go and look for Bendy Coco.
13:35
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's Ben B Coco.
13:36
Speaker 1: Ben B Coco, not Bendy Coco.
13:38
Speaker 1: Right, don't take him out of the bottle.
13:40
Speaker 1: Ben B Coco is named my store.
13:42
Speaker 1: But yeah, it shows you how much we take for granted what cocoa is rated as somebody best in the world, and also our chocolate ears are rated as somebody best.
13:53
Speaker 1: So this man has his practice there and make a living for himself.
13:57
Speaker 1: Learning from a Trinidadian guy.
13:58
Speaker 1: It was just really interesting to see that.
14:00
Speaker 1: You know what else was really random.
14:01
Speaker 1: Before moving to the topics of the week we went to.
14:04
Speaker 1: You know they say this on the podcast and people tell me I come off very aloof and elite, right, but one of the things I look forward to when I travel is to go to nice restaurants and eat nice food, and that's one of the reasons I end things like recurring back again, because we could take our time as adults.
14:23
Speaker 1: When you're hungry it could be patient training.
14:24
Speaker 1: When they're hungry they need KFC or the closest thing they see, mcdonald's and all these things.
14:28
Speaker 1: So we will.
14:30
Speaker 1: In the heart of downtown Miami there is a bunch of restaurants like the places really, really good.
14:35
Speaker 1: So we were walking going up the road.
14:37
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, when we came off the flight we were walking up the road and Stacy had seen this place, not Italy, I don't know anything about it, but I do remember googling good restaurants in the area.
14:47
Speaker 1: Not Italy came up so I said let's go in Midnight the day and I like the vibe of restaurants when the restaurant full and the chatter of restaurants and the background music and active, active waiters and waitresses and when you could see in the kitchen and the bar active.
15:02
Speaker 1: That's real fun for me.
15:04
Speaker 1: I enjoy that a lot.
15:05
Speaker 1: I enjoy the ambiance of restaurants, a hence reason I always say I like town restaurant down here, because you hardly find restaurants that have that energy and a vibe and the decor to go along with it and stuff.
15:17
Speaker 1: Maybe I should go out more often here and come out on the comfort zone here a little bit.
15:22
Speaker 1: I'm looking for recommendations.
15:23
Speaker 1: Tell me where the vibes is, because a lot of the time you're going to the nice restaurant it is very quiet and very laid back.
15:28
Speaker 1: I don't have that energy, but not Italy was like that and as we told, like what he would recommend.
15:34
Speaker 1: He recommend a few like starters.
15:36
Speaker 1: I said, well, we share up some starters and some of the best food I've ever had.
15:40
Speaker 1: And then I was shrimp.
15:40
Speaker 1: What do you call it?
15:42
Speaker 1: Shrimp scampi Me?
15:43
Speaker 1: No, it's shrimp scampi.
15:43
Speaker 1: I said, bring it, bring it, come.
15:46
Speaker 1: And a truffle bread Me no, it's that.
15:48
Speaker 1: I said, bring him, I shall eat him.
15:49
Speaker 1: And they bring that thing and boil it.
15:51
Speaker 1: That is one of the best things I've ever had.
15:53
Speaker 1: So fast forward to a few days.
15:54
Speaker 1: We were there for about eight days.
15:55
Speaker 1: Fast forward a few days.
15:58
Speaker 1: Down the road, stacy, I think, we went to Sawgrass and when we came back the night we want to go and get some property we were looking for.
16:05
Speaker 1: Is it Mr Charles?
16:07
Speaker 1: Who's name of the restaurant?
16:08
Speaker 1: Again, pf Chang.
16:09
Speaker 1: She like PF Chang.
16:12
Speaker 1: I don't really like it that much.
16:13
Speaker 1: So you're going up there, but only bust it off for PF Chang.
16:15
Speaker 1: Now he plays dead.
16:17
Speaker 1: And when I look across the road, north Italy is swinging.
16:20
Speaker 1: So I think, well, I go back Now, my mind telling them don't go back in North Italy, because we went there already, we could try somewhere else, you know.
16:26
Speaker 1: But Stacy said North Italy, we going in there, the vibe swinging and thing we walking, I see Stacy whole face change, like she gone into complete groupie mode.
16:37
Speaker 1: I said, but what's going on, this woman?
16:39
Speaker 1: I mean I've seen me every day when you see me.
16:41
Speaker 1: Now you moving, so you know what I mean.
16:43
Speaker 1: I said, but what you got accustomed to, these kind of look here.
16:45
Speaker 1: But she telling me now she say that's the man from Breaking Bad.
16:50
Speaker 1: Well, I stroop one time because I don't know she wrong and she's seeing the wrong person already.
16:55
Speaker 1: So I've expected her to turn wrong.
16:57
Speaker 1: Somehow in my mind I thought I would have turned wrong and see somebody looking like Saul.
17:01
Speaker 1: I said well, she must take somebody for Saul.
17:02
Speaker 1: I think it's Bob Odenkirk, his name.
17:04
Speaker 1: I said she must be taking somebody for Saul.
17:08
Speaker 1: You know, when I turn around and watch is Nacho Vaggo.
17:10
Speaker 1: If you know better call Saul, right, he was not Breaking Bad, he was only in better call Saul.
17:15
Speaker 1: But if you know better call Saul, you're supposed to know Nacho Vaggo, no matter what Nacho wasn't.
17:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, nacho wasn't Breaking Bad.
17:23
Speaker 1: So I'm at over.
17:25
Speaker 1: I see Nacho, so I'm watching him now because I go in in groupie mode now myself a little bit.
17:29
Speaker 1: I had a control myself a little bit here I'm trying to think is this Nacho or is it not?
17:37
Speaker 1: I don't want to embarrass myself in the people restaurant because we're waiting for a table now and them looking like they're waiting for.
17:42
Speaker 1: I don't want to embarrass myself.
17:43
Speaker 1: And is you a wrong man?
17:44
Speaker 1: And she in complete groupie mode is girl.
17:47
Speaker 1: I light up like two bulb.
17:48
Speaker 1: But when I sit down there and if you know me well enough, right, I have watched better call Saul at least a hundred times I bet your bottom dollar, you know I start back to watch it since we had the experience of the right back in it again.
18:00
Speaker 1: And when I am talk that man's not exactly like Nacho.
18:06
Speaker 1: Now we never take no picture.
18:07
Speaker 1: I think I went into groupie overdrive and stay.
18:10
Speaker 1: She was in, she was extra bored in the groupiness one.
18:12
Speaker 1: We didn't take no picture.
18:13
Speaker 1: But that was an amazing experience.
18:14
Speaker 1: I say I had to tell her that when I come back after all the years of reruns I better call Saul a bong of the old natural in his spot and I went on Instagram to make sure is a man taking on.
18:24
Speaker 1: The last picture we had was saying Miami and things about that.
18:27
Speaker 1: That was good, but with that that was pretty much Miami and a challenge.
18:31
Speaker 1: We eat nice, we see a lot, we enjoy ourselves, we enjoy the child free time and now understand what people is be saying when they say how to do things together and lead them to and home from time to time it's beautiful.
18:44
Speaker 1: I went out, I went up on the weekend we were.
18:46
Speaker 1: There was one beyond say had her Renaissance toy in Miami and that would be Friday night.
18:51
Speaker 1: So I said, well, we here, let me look up some Renaissance thought ticket by.
18:54
Speaker 1: The cheapest ticket is 400 and something dollars.
18:57
Speaker 1: I say, all right, I'm still, I can't name you three beyond say song.
19:01
Speaker 1: I know single ladies but I don't think I could take a whole beyond say.
19:06
Speaker 1: I would already just be going there to say I went, but at 400 and something at ticket and you know I end up seeing a ticket for like a one something or 200 or seven.
19:15
Speaker 1: Let me go and say we went.
19:17
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
19:18
Speaker 1: Let me do it for the gram.
19:19
Speaker 1: You know the ticket is listening.
19:21
Speaker 1: Only it is a superstar.
19:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, superstar is listening.
19:24
Speaker 1: So you paying $200 to go a beyond, say, show where you can see beer and they make it clear to you, and not going to be able to see the stage you could only hear the performance is crazy.
19:35
Speaker 1: And then this Sunday Messi was playing into Miami was as similar.
19:38
Speaker 1: I told you, go and take it messy and do it for the gram again, only to see the same thing, $400.
19:45
Speaker 1: Well, for that $400, if you see how far you is from messy at that point, you don't know messy from Denzil Teobol, if you, if you, if you that far from so we didn't do no whole set of events, but I did have a good time in Miami and somewhere along that good time I picked up the vids.
20:02
Speaker 1: I started to feel bad.
20:04
Speaker 1: Somewhere around midway, maybe somewhere around Stacey shopping time, I started to feel a kind of way like if I ain't feeling so great.
20:11
Speaker 1: But I put that down to not wanting to walk around them malls and getting fed up with these spaces.
20:16
Speaker 1: But I didn't know.
20:17
Speaker 1: Covid was back in the rise both in Florida and in Trinidad, and I come back here.
20:22
Speaker 1: I was supposed to start up on my business in a little bit.
20:23
Speaker 1: I was supposed to have a photo shoot with my guy Cassius.
20:27
Speaker 1: I tried to redo.
20:27
Speaker 1: I had to work for the podcast.
20:29
Speaker 1: I had to postpone that.
20:30
Speaker 1: I postponed that trim.
20:32
Speaker 1: They could see how I looking and nothing looking great.
20:34
Speaker 1: I had to tell Ronald I can't make, only to find out, like Ronald, like he retire.
20:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, message from Ronald.
20:40
Speaker 1: I had a message from Ronald to find if he good, imagine the barbershop is closed until food and notice I'm looking for a bar.
20:46
Speaker 1: But this is your recommendation podcast and all you gotta.
20:48
Speaker 1: All you gotta help more a little bit, because I don't know where to start if, if Ronald closed down and I don't have a bar.
20:55
Speaker 1: But that's how it goes and I have some bad experiences with barbers.
21:00
Speaker 1: I have a tell only about that.
21:03
Speaker 1: I had a barber one time and I had to start over finding a new bar and this is intensity in town and I sit on this man chair and you know this, fade up the side and I'm getting them and fade up the side and just cut off the loose here and then do like.
21:19
Speaker 1: So the first time I tell myself well, something here, right, I say it's blowy blow.
21:26
Speaker 1: I say you couldn't blow.
21:27
Speaker 1: I make up that in my mind because I'm looking for something.
21:31
Speaker 1: I'm looking for a problem, because it's impossible that a grown man just blow the hair out my head and then he'd bridge it back and he'd say, well, when he blow in my neck, I say well, I can't.
21:41
Speaker 1: I say brother, it's blowy, blowy.
21:43
Speaker 1: I say nah, man, we leave this right here, we wrap this up.
21:46
Speaker 1: I walk out on the tone and that teach me that when I was a young fellow.
21:50
Speaker 1: When you're going back to a new barber, you walk with a hat, but I'm looking for barber recommendation or we could have a barber finance in Chicago.
21:57
Speaker 1: On us here.
21:57
Speaker 1: I don't embarrass myself the other day with a man who spray paint my whole face, but the other fellow who, reliable and working by appointment, the man chair like a stool and the way my core and things set up I guess so long and balance my weight out for so long, let's all look at looking for for recommendations.
22:14
Speaker 1: So I miss out on plenty of things.
22:15
Speaker 1: I come and I miss out on the photo shoot that I reschedule.
22:18
Speaker 1: I was hoping that the couple weeks I miss I come back with new artwork and at least all I can say I do something in the downtime, but no luck with that.
22:25
Speaker 1: Salute, cassius.
22:26
Speaker 1: I have that rescheduled.
22:27
Speaker 1: And then I also miss out on my barber.
22:31
Speaker 1: Now I had a final new barber but I think that I sorry I miss the most.
22:36
Speaker 1: I want to say salute and happy belated birthday to my guy, marlon Great.
22:41
Speaker 1: Marlon Nelson, my cousin.
22:43
Speaker 1: I say salute.
22:43
Speaker 1: He had a year that he was in Trinidad.
22:45
Speaker 1: They all think foreign and they all think he cool and they come back to Trinidad.
22:48
Speaker 1: They have a little birthday fest and I miss the birthday fest.
22:51
Speaker 1: I had class whole day Saturday and then after the class I was completely burned out and exhausted.
22:57
Speaker 1: I couldn't even make the birthday fest.
22:59
Speaker 1: Boys, I just want to take one quick minute.
23:01
Speaker 1: I just want to say a happy 73rd birthday to my cousin Marlon, my oldest cousin.
23:06
Speaker 1: Happy 73rd.

Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
39:07
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
39:30
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
40:01
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
40:23
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
41:07
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
41:33
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
42:03
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
42:17
Speaker 1: I say salute to the whole Corby family.
42:41
Speaker 1: She was talking about her love for dancehall music and sometimes I wonder what Jamaicans move so with dancehall music and reggae music, like if the whole world loved it and they don't seem to love the dancehall artists and reggae artists in the same way.
43:05
Speaker 1: I love the idea of Marshall getting the keys to Kingston, which I think Marshall deserves the keys to every city in the Caribbean and a few in the states too and in Europe.
43:15
Speaker 1: But when Marshall gets the keys, there are plenty men who are supposed to have a key already, right, bounty, kila, berries, buja, beanie man.
43:24
Speaker 1: Come on, that's the Caribbean, right?
43:26
Speaker 1: So I think that achievement of the first, which will never be forgotten.
43:31
Speaker 1: I hope that elite continue to do this.
43:33
Speaker 1: But a lifetime achievement award for him was interesting to see because Marshall still is bringing as a trainee, right.
43:40
Speaker 1: Let me come back to home here.
43:41
Speaker 1: As a trainee kind of all time, marshall is still in a position where everybody want to hear what he bring for the road march and what he bring for the FETs and what FETs he perform and then still pull anymore some onto people.
43:52
Speaker 1: So lots of voice, not his spec, but Marshall still is the draw, right.
43:56
Speaker 1: But when you look at him going up and collecting that lifetime, it might be the first time that I really it's singing to me and Marshall all like Marlon and he's the one like the hell.
44:08
Speaker 1: This man is, the man is, he is, he's now the elder statesman, not just in soca music and the pinnacle and all that thing, but when you look across the board at Caribbean artists, marshall is one of the elder statesmen, anything.
44:21
Speaker 1: So I was looking at David Rudder performance last year, so look at David Rudder, who was also honored in this award show.
44:27
Speaker 1: We're looking at him as one of the elders who passing on the baton, you know, but, but, but Marshall, in that same space.
44:36
Speaker 1: Marshall is not Marshall, not of today.
44:38
Speaker 1: You know, as relevant as he is, he looked a little more like berries on them than he was.
44:44
Speaker 1: Looking like Ding Dong and Tempa and them, and even somebody, somebody, jamaican artists like Ding Dong and them, who they are Jamaican.
44:54
Speaker 1: Ding Dong, now Marshall, beard white, you know, I mean looking like one of the elder statesman.
44:59
Speaker 1: So salute him on a lifetime achievement award.
45:02
Speaker 1: And to get a lifetime achievement award and win male artist of the year in the same award show speaks volumes of your contribution from the start to your contribution today.
45:14
Speaker 1: That hard to accomplish.
45:15
Speaker 1: Bears Hammond received an elite icon award and also one male artist of the year, reggae.
45:21
Speaker 1: So again, salute to him.
45:22
Speaker 1: What, what for you to have hits all the way up to today from?
45:26
Speaker 1: I mean, we could go through bears hit too much to go right.
45:30
Speaker 1: Other double winners of the event which was hosted by Wyclef Jawa, kabaka, pyramid, ding Dong and Patrice Roberts.
45:35
Speaker 1: Patrice was one of them too, when all is said and done, is the same thing I was saying about Destro and when all is said and done, patrice Roberts, going up one of the biggest catalogues in soca and she is a foster reckon with.
45:47
Speaker 1: If you give her all to perform, she gonna have to leave out real favorites out of that all.
45:52
Speaker 1: She just has so much music you know I always wonder about, okay.
45:56
Speaker 1: So look at bears, right, or even look at somebody reggae artists, trying to remember I don't want to call anybody who had already passed away.
46:06
Speaker 1: Let me give you an example of one who passed away.
46:09
Speaker 1: John Holt had passed away, right, but when you look at John Holt and them current, he was able to take police and helicopter, my desire, all them big songs that he sing over the years and tour Europe for the rest of his life.
46:22
Speaker 1: He tour and catalog and I wondering if is there space for soca artists to do that?
46:30
Speaker 1: Like, do they have spaces or promoters or venues across the world where these are artists as they get older and stop producing?
46:39
Speaker 1: So I using Destro's example, not saying that she don't produce anymore, right, but Destro catalog big enough and she could retire on catalog.
46:46
Speaker 1: But is there other spaces where she could just go and tour Europe and tour Japan and stuff in doing the research for Denise Plummer episode?
46:54
Speaker 1: Talking to Alvin Daniel, I want to say a salute to the Calypso Showcase.
46:58
Speaker 1: A lot of information and she had two Calypso Showcase appearances that could pull information from, but one of them she was talking about, I want to say, is Switzerland.
47:08
Speaker 1: If it's not Switzerland, is Sweden right, forgive me, where she was talking about going out there and performing with some of the world's biggest stars and performing in front of 80,000 people in that festival type setting.
47:20
Speaker 1: And it makes me wonder, you know, put somebody like Patrice Robbins, who have so many songs and so many things that could connect with any kind of culture, if she could, or Destro, for example, could just tour and catalog and go all over Europe and do what these reggae artists have been doing for years.
47:35
Speaker 1: Anyway, reggae legend Bujubanthan received a humanitarian award for his philanthropic foundation, the Bujubanthan Foundation.
47:42
Speaker 1: So look at him.
47:42
Speaker 1: Of course he couldn't be there, right?
47:44
Speaker 1: So I think he zoomed in and he spoke.
47:45
Speaker 1: Performers include Waini Wanda, alison Hines, jada Kingland, destadaps, cranium, nyla Blackman, ding Dong, rupee, baby Shum, tony and Singh, roman Virga and Jelal Hunt and Stonelove.
47:55
Speaker 1: The event also featured appearances from Duggy Fresh, skang, maya, spice.
48:00
Speaker 1: Maya and Spice is two different people, right.
48:02
Speaker 1: Morgan Heritage, conscience, kali Red, kali Red, go.
48:06
Speaker 1: Kali Red is from Trinidad and Michael Rainey Jr.
48:08
Speaker 1: You can present it to them, right?
48:09
Speaker 1: It was streamed on YouTube and so on.
48:11
Speaker 1: So salute, salute, salute.
48:12
Speaker 1: Can I call out some of the people, some of the more meaningful winners?
48:19
Speaker 1: Salute to everybody.
48:20
Speaker 1: Win right, but more meaningful winners to this podcast.
48:22
Speaker 1: Impact award to Soka Viking Ding Dong.
48:25
Speaker 1: Performer of the year Soka.
48:29
Speaker 1: Mr Killer, I would love to see here after year, after year, who can take the performance award from Mr Killer.
48:36
Speaker 1: Maybe Mash, I mean, and even he not at this point in his career.
48:41
Speaker 1: See Destro try to jump on Marshal and St Mary's Fetal assay.
48:44
Speaker 1: It nearly cause mayhem.
48:45
Speaker 1: Maybe voice, I don't know.
48:48
Speaker 1: Petrusa was one female Soka artist of the year.
48:51
Speaker 1: The People's Choice award was won by Kes.
48:53
Speaker 1: That was an interesting one too because and of course, mentioned to collaboration of the year, gvm, neutron and DJ Spider.
49:00
Speaker 1: But that was collaboration of the year Soka, right.
49:05
Speaker 1: But it was interesting just judging from the comments right when I saw how many people responded to Kes.
49:11
Speaker 1: You know a lot of the comments from non-Trinidadians about Kes was you know they love his music and they love his spirit and the personality and you know I'm not.
49:20
Speaker 1: It's seeming as though Kes final space in a Caribbean grooved where he's loved across the Caribbean, including Jamaica, which for me has been historically one of the harder markets for Soka artist to break through.
49:33
Speaker 1: But maybe that collaboration with Shaggy and Kes among not this content, all the other work he didn't scurry before but you could see that people have a genuine love for Kes and his easy going style and easy smiling thinking, working for him.
49:47
Speaker 1: And also we had a watch this space where Kes is in the Caribbean, right, because when you look at the type of collaboration with that, the type of collaboration that that song with Shaggy was an attraction, that that song in globally, along with the fact that you have somebody like Shaggy who has had global hits before and know how to work ahead and travel and perform and stuff that song continuing to get better and better and grow.
50:10
Speaker 1: So it's gonna open him up to more and more markets and maybe more collaborations like those.
50:14
Speaker 1: And just watch that space, right, just observe that the response to all the artists was good, but the response to Kes in particular was much more multi-dimensional and multicultural than what I saw with the response to all the other artists.
50:28
Speaker 1: But of course, nothing without controversy, nothing without a little cultural kankalang back canal.
50:33
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
50:35
Speaker 1: You must have a little bit of that.
50:36
Speaker 1: So the news day I saw it on social media but I saw the news day carried as well.
50:39
Speaker 1: It's from Yvonne Webb Ravi B Chutney Soka recognition.
50:44
Speaker 1: Ravi B wants Chutney Soka recognition on the Caribbean musical world.
50:47
Speaker 1: So Ravi B being a fellow artist in the space, I have a few questions about this headliner.
51:01
Speaker 1: But let me again how he said it, because I have less of an issue with what he said versus how he went about it.
51:08
Speaker 1: So reading from this news day here it says Chutney singer Ravi Bissambar, better known as Ravi B, that I could see where he is, says he hopes one day Chutney Soka can be recognized by the Caribbean musical world.
51:23
Speaker 1: Now, if this was his statement that Ravi B had made, I would say that's a great idea.
51:27
Speaker 1: Maybe I should check the organizers, let them understand what, because, like for the Grammys, there's nothing wrong with saying Chutney Soka music should be recognized by all your hope, chutney Soka.
51:40
Speaker 1: Music is recognized by the Grammys, right, and you can apply to the Grammys to have the genre recognized.
51:46
Speaker 1: Now the Grammys is going to take a look into the genre, look at the quality of music, look at the amount of artists, look at the type of following.
51:53
Speaker 1: They can see all the streaming and they are going to determine whether they get into the awards or not.
51:58
Speaker 1: And then they are going to determine whether they get the award the day before the show, before the show starts, when it is hot sun, or what they are getting when you are going to go to the main stage.
52:07
Speaker 1: Right, because the Grammys committee determines what they do with their show, as should the people who run the Caribbean music awards.
52:14
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, the word inaugural means first.
52:17
Speaker 1: If they do this the first time, they have to start somewhere, and the fact that they start somewhere is better than deliberating forever, what they call analysis, paralysis and trying to figure out everything, and never getting nothing starts right.
52:31
Speaker 1: So again, to look to them, forget any ball rolling.
52:34
Speaker 1: They have a Caribbean music award now.
52:36
Speaker 1: We have a benchmark, we have a start in point, we have a bearish as a reggae artist of the year, we have a start right.
52:42
Speaker 1: Moving on, he was responding via WhatsApp messages to queries from Newsday over his social media posts which criticized the inclusion, the exclusion, of the genre at the inaugural Caribbean music awards in New York and August 31st, quoting here, saying I just really want to say kudos to all my colleagues from the Caribbean who nominated and won awards.
53:09
Speaker 1: I like that statement too.
53:10
Speaker 1: I think it should.
53:13
Speaker 1: There's your colleagues.
53:14
Speaker 1: I like how.
53:14
Speaker 1: I like how in Jamaica they say coworkers.
53:17
Speaker 1: I was watching Beanie Manon in Nightly Fixed podcast recently.
53:20
Speaker 1: I like what Jamaican artists say.
53:21
Speaker 1: I'm a coworker he was talking about elephant manon, he.
53:24
Speaker 1: But I coworker, you know what I mean.
53:26
Speaker 1: Don't mind the car, get along, I still a coworker.
53:27
Speaker 1: So Ravi B Marshall is your coworker.
53:30
Speaker 1: Viking Ding Dong, nyla Kess these is your coworkers.
53:34
Speaker 1: These is people you're working with everyday.
53:36
Speaker 1: So I like the idea that you could say kudos to all your colleagues who was nominated and who was won awards.
53:41
Speaker 1: I like that.
53:42
Speaker 1: I like the kind of grace you're showing here.
53:44
Speaker 1: Let's move on again.
53:46
Speaker 1: I actually would like to commend the idea and the producer of this event for creating a platform for Caribbean artists to be appreciated and awarded for their hard work.
53:55
Speaker 1: So far, so good, ravi B.
53:57
Speaker 1: I like it a lot.
54:00
Speaker 1: This is, this is hey, you have a publicist.
54:02
Speaker 1: All these things are in clean, so I like it a lot.
54:04
Speaker 1: He also said I hope that one day in the near future we can get a chutney soka category up in there.
54:12
Speaker 1: I like that too.
54:12
Speaker 1: Now debatable, right, debatable, because maybe what we need is consideration for chutney soka artists in the soka category.
54:24
Speaker 1: If none of it was given right now, I can say that of the host, because when I go to their website and I look at the nominees, for instance, right, they had several categories and when I go through each category that had to do with soka and I look at who was nominated, I did not see any.
54:43
Speaker 1: I did not see any chutney soka artists nominated anywhere.
54:48
Speaker 1: All I was seeing is Dan Solo artists and Reggae artists and soka artists.
54:52
Speaker 1: And say, calypso Nyan, if you, if you, if you, if you stretch it, if you include Nabi and Nadia and Nyla's Calypso Nyan Mosul, I see plenty Fea and plenty Nyla Destro, allison Hines, you know, I mean, I did not see any, what you call it, no chutney soka artists involved.
55:14
Speaker 1: No, if you, what you're singing is I don't want to use it to him sub-genre.
55:20
Speaker 1: But if oh, I forget to mention as well vibes Cartel was given artists of the decade, I find they should just award he artist of the decade every single decade.
55:31
Speaker 1: The other the other nominees will Marshall Kess, beanieman, chronix Movado and Bounty Killer and Cartel win it.
55:41
Speaker 1: Keep in mind that this was done by voting right, so the fans were allowed to vote for this.
55:45
Speaker 1: So the fact that no chutney soka artist was nominated for any of these is one of the two things.
55:52
Speaker 1: They didn't consider chutney music at all, or they consider it, and it wasn't good enough to make the final list as far as they concern.
55:58
Speaker 1: It has six people on this list for artists of the decade and there's a top six and none of them happen to come from chutney soka music.
56:06
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure if the call is for chutney soka to be recognized on its own so that they can make sure that they win award of a chutney soka to be considered under soka.
56:22
Speaker 1: It does not seem that I just call right because everything I say there so far was so good, because the statements very, you know they politically correct, the very kind to the people who involved the promoters.
56:34
Speaker 1: They are the co-workers, it's very kind, but that was not the comments he made on social media.
56:39
Speaker 1: The first thing I saw posted from Ravi B on his Facebook page was their carib music awards.
56:45
Speaker 1: Chutney, soka music is also part of the Caribbean.
56:48
Speaker 1: I don't like that.
56:49
Speaker 1: No, I shouldn't clap.
56:51
Speaker 1: I don't like that.
56:52
Speaker 1: I don't.
56:52
Speaker 1: I don't like the way that come across.
56:54
Speaker 1: I find, when everybody was basking and, you know, reveling in the fact that they actually had one, that was poor timing and it seemed like was he willing to use jealousy or envy, or I don't like it.
57:09
Speaker 1: It seemed disingenuous and I'm not sure what's he looking for.
57:13
Speaker 1: The timing bad is what I want to say.
57:15
Speaker 1: That is not the time and place to say that you could have opened with congratulations, say.
57:20
Speaker 1: But he did say all that eventually, right.
57:22
Speaker 1: But when he said that, of course the Facebook comments coming and saying all it's even song like hell.
57:27
Speaker 1: All always do is sing over badjan and try to make something.
57:31
Speaker 1: All they're singing over.
57:33
Speaker 1: All the singing over badjan and singing over Bollywood hits until all their music.
57:37
Speaker 1: And then the next comment is everything only sings about the raw man.
57:40
Speaker 1: Ravi B now is in the comments posting until man.
57:44
Speaker 1: I was waiting because I fell asleep.
57:46
Speaker 1: All the way doing is singing over Bollywood.
57:47
Speaker 1: So Ravi B post 10 songs he sing.
57:50
Speaker 1: That was some of his biggest songs.
57:51
Speaker 1: That is not Bollywood making.
57:53
Speaker 1: He say I was waiting for this comments and he put.
57:55
Speaker 1: He list out his songs.
57:56
Speaker 1: You know me, a lot of these songs that he list out was not the biggest song Javi B sing.
58:04
Speaker 1: The biggest song.
58:05
Speaker 1: Some of the biggest songs he sing is the ones that he take a bite out of Hollywood and one of the disc, bollywood.
58:11
Speaker 1: Sorry, one of the things that I was seeing he being used interchangeably right is Tiffin and borrowing.
58:19
Speaker 1: Now the fans were saying Tiffin and Ravi B was saying borrowing and Ravi B was basically saying well, all genres of music, including reggae and so called borrow music.
58:31
Speaker 1: That is true, but I want to be clear that there's also a difference between sampling and borrowing, because what we mean when you say borrowing, we mean that means you give credit and you pay, you pay, you pay, you make, you know me, you make you reach out to the artist and you say, listen, I want to do over this thing.
58:48
Speaker 1: And you know I mean borrow, take a sample and you get clearance of your sample.
58:52
Speaker 1: Do you do those things?
58:53
Speaker 1: Because if you're not doing those things, those songs.
58:55
Speaker 1: I don't know how Caribbean music awards gonna go about their business, but you couldn't get nominated for a Grammy if your song didn't cover all the right channels to be able to sample something from somebody else or all the legal ways to borrow the melody or music.
59:10
Speaker 1: You just singing over songs.
59:11
Speaker 1: You're singing over songs and changing the music from in detail to English in a lot of ways, and I don't find anything wrong with that.
59:18
Speaker 1: I enjoy the music.
59:19
Speaker 1: I find the music good as any other, but you can't open up when people celebrate anything and you're singing like the sour grapes man, their crib music.
59:28
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you, so come, music is also bad in Caribbean.
59:31
Speaker 1: If I write back and I say, yeah, we consider chutney music, it doesn't make it.
59:34
Speaker 1: Maybe need to step up your standard.
59:36
Speaker 1: You know they're gonna be vex, I say, boy, listen, because I could.
59:39
Speaker 1: I could send you a list now and say these are the 10 nominees, but this is all we put.
59:44
Speaker 1: We had all these people under consideration, including you, but a woman by a bread for me, make it, you know.
59:51
Speaker 1: You know, be a little bit even more vex.
59:53
Speaker 1: So I, I, I question this.
59:56
Speaker 1: I question this, I question this what?
59:58
Speaker 1: What is exactly we want out of that?
1:00:01
Speaker 1: What we looking for, they say included, was a reference to the Caribbean Court of Justice, which one fan with one fan point.
1:00:07
Speaker 1: You know.
1:00:08
Speaker 1: This is why you must not be accepted as our final quarter will play go figure.
1:00:12
Speaker 1: So you know you're going beyond it to say that they had to get a CCJ involved.
1:00:16
Speaker 1: I'm not sure many felt that this part of Caribbean music and it should be acknowledged, as the comments are talking about now, right, with some discredited as perpetuating rum cult and rum lyrics.
1:00:26
Speaker 1: I didn't have a problem with the rum culture and the rum lyrics, the rum culture and rum lyrics.
1:00:31
Speaker 1: You know much of rum culture and rum lyrics.
1:00:33
Speaker 1: Marshall seem to be able to get lifetime achievements or what you know, my rum berries drink you know I mean music.
1:00:39
Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that is music.
1:00:41
Speaker 1: Music against about any topic on make a career with a.
1:00:44
Speaker 1: So, uh, they just went on to talk a little more about why, clef and his role and some of the things that he said overall and so on.
1:00:57
Speaker 1: Ravi B Gourmetto.
1:01:00
Speaker 1: Ravi B.
1:01:00
Speaker 1: Ravi B, one of the top names in Chattanooga, who has been performing across the Caribbean and North America, took to social media to express his disappointment with mainly the reggae, dancehall and soaker music genres, which are recognized Jazz singer Vonard Bigfoot responded to Ravi B's statement, noted there were several genres and subgenres left out at the awards.
1:01:18
Speaker 1: I think with a little time and consistency we will all be recognized.
1:01:21
Speaker 1: For now, I'm thankful this was done.
1:01:22
Speaker 1: There's hope.
1:01:23
Speaker 1: I just feel like this is a classy response.
1:01:32
Speaker 1: I think it's true.
1:01:34
Speaker 1: I think the thing was focused around soaker and reggae right being the two biggest genres that manage here.
1:01:41
Speaker 1: What do you call Vonard doing?
1:01:44
Speaker 1: Caribbean Jazz, if I could be so rude and not sure what exactly she might call her subgenre.
1:01:49
Speaker 1: If she's talking about herself, maybe she's probably not, but they have plenty of things like Zook.
1:01:54
Speaker 1: You could go as far back as Skye and Jamaica.
1:01:58
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, as they say, chutney Soaker.
1:02:00
Speaker 1: Well, it's Raga Soaker.
1:02:02
Speaker 1: It's still out there.
1:02:02
Speaker 1: Or will we end up with Groovy Soaker and Soaker?
1:02:06
Speaker 1: They will continue to grow.
1:02:07
Speaker 1: I am hoping they do it every year but they will continue to grow and make sure that all these genres that are recognized and they will set proper criteria to do it.
1:02:18
Speaker 1: So a kind of more preferred statement that says I think with a little time and consistency we will all be recognized.
1:02:25
Speaker 1: For now I'm thankful that it was done.
1:02:27
Speaker 1: Most important thing is it was done and now we have hope All of us could be recognized.
1:02:32
Speaker 1: If I was Ravibiana, I was King of Chutney Soaker.
1:02:35
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily want to be recognized in a subgenre.
1:02:39
Speaker 1: I would give me the Soaker award.
1:02:40
Speaker 1: I would recommend, when it's a lifetime achievement time, come and give me my lifetime achievement thing for as much as I would have been able to contribute over my career, which Raviby career is unquestionable.
1:02:53
Speaker 1: You could say where you want about Borosong.
1:02:56
Speaker 1: You could say where you want about Rumsong and Raviby, especially his command over some of the territories in the Caribbean.
1:03:03
Speaker 1: There are plenty of men who are awarded here who care for, like Claudette Raviby in certain territories in the Caribbean and can't move show anyway.
1:03:12
Speaker 1: Vonnette went on to name some of these genres, such as, or identify some of the sorry.
1:03:19
Speaker 1: This is not Vonnette.
1:03:20
Speaker 1: Let me go back.
1:03:22
Speaker 1: I don't agree.
1:03:22
Speaker 1: It has placed, it has its place and she respected.
1:03:26
Speaker 1: I don't play that.
1:03:27
Speaker 1: Also, we're in an uncontroversy.
1:03:28
Speaker 1: International opera singer and Friedle.
1:03:31
Speaker 1: Friedle observed that their 50th diversion rose off Calypso.
1:03:35
Speaker 1: Music all derived out of Calypso and it would be a tough decision every year and trials not to offend.
1:03:41
Speaker 1: She identified some of the Caribbean music offshoots from Calypso, such as Chutney, sokol, zook, mentor, rapso, xtempo, kaden's Rampo Dancehall, jab Jab, rocksteady.
1:03:51
Speaker 1: Imagine they have a Jab Jab award in there.
1:03:53
Speaker 1: Hey, if they bring a Jab Award, I want to know what they go look like when the Jab Men and them had a collecting on stage, all dressed up, nice and think that is what this is a Caribbean award.
1:04:04
Speaker 1: Rocksteady, casaco, jingping Reggae, punta Rock, parang, steelban, breakdome and Calypso Pro.
1:04:16
Speaker 1: There are even more forms of Caribbean music.
1:04:21
Speaker 1: Does an artist have to sell a million records or have an equal amount of fans to be included in the award show?
1:04:26
Speaker 1: What is the deciding factor for them to be included?
1:04:27
Speaker 1: Listen, give people time.
1:04:31
Speaker 1: The factors are going back to over on it.
1:04:33
Speaker 1: The factors.
1:04:33
Speaker 1: It's hard one.
1:04:34
Speaker 1: It's hard one and they do it and they pull it off and it was great and we must continue to build on it and maybe calls like these could be gentler in terms of how you call for it, not hey, hey, hey, hey, you can't shut me too.
1:04:48
Speaker 1: Be gentler and you approach this and approach people directly.
1:04:51
Speaker 1: Approach people directly.
1:04:52
Speaker 1: They may not.
1:04:54
Speaker 1: If Chotny Soko was one of the biggest genres, or if you had two genres to pick from any Caribbean and you have Calypso and Reggae, I see two biggest.
1:05:03
Speaker 1: And if Calypso, if Chotny Soko was bypassing Reggae, I'm sure it's would have been there.
1:05:07
Speaker 1: So the discussion there to be had is one of the smaller genres, or subgenre of Calypso, if you want to call that Osoka.
1:05:13
Speaker 1: So I think at the end of the day, let me be gentler in our approaches to these things.
1:05:20
Speaker 1: I want to take a quick minute to recognize as being stated here by Ms Friedal about the idea of where Calypso come from and how Calypso has contributed.
1:05:33
Speaker 1: So there's usually a discussion that talks about how much dancehall music or, sorry, reggae music would have contributed to hip hop.
1:05:44
Speaker 1: Right.
1:05:44
Speaker 1: Also, from dancehall to hip hop is a direct link with DJs like Cool Hook and people who were Jamaican, and the style of toasting or the style of rapping came from the dancehall and the way Selector would toast when they were on the mic.
1:06:06
Speaker 1: So when you look at Uroa and these people and, to be fair, on Wyclef Senators as well Reggae and dancehall sampled so heavily in hip hop music and they collaborate so much with hip hop artists, almost like to get them a start or a boost sometimes, and then the Reggae and dancehall not really recognized in their bigger world shows in the same way.
1:06:30
Speaker 1: So they borrow and borrow and borrow and then you do get a kind of recognition.
1:06:34
Speaker 1: In looking for some of the biggest artists in the genre are Westinians, but you find that you do get a Westinian credit.
1:06:41
Speaker 1: They make up the Westinies themselves.
1:06:43
Speaker 1: And I ain't talking about the artists themselves.
1:06:44
Speaker 1: The biggest smalls Rihanna, nicki Minaj, cardi B I don't talk about them.
1:06:48
Speaker 1: They make up their country but the labels don't seem to really want to push it.
1:06:53
Speaker 1: When you look at the way Drake and Popcorn was going along, it look like the labels not really interested in putting reggae and dancehall music out there.
1:07:02
Speaker 1: And sometimes I wonder about the same when it comes to the idea of Calypso and its contribution to reggae, because when you go back to Lintate and people who were Trinidadians and contributed directly to the formation of ska music or the earliest days of reggae music, sometimes you don't get a recognition either and I feel like just circling it all the way back to being able to sing that for Beres.
1:07:32
Speaker 1: I don't see why a collaboration like Shaggy and Kes can happen with somebody like Beres and Farmer, who is to elder statesmen in the genre who have a similar kind of style in terms of the way they sing about women and the groove.
1:07:47
Speaker 1: They end on them thinking you know they could almost hear Farmer and Beres collaborating.
1:07:52
Speaker 1: So I wanted to go back and just take one quick minute to acknowledge one of the earliest Calypso musicians who would have moved to Jamaica and contributed directly to the formation of reggae music as we know it today, coming straight out of Calypso, and I want to play one of the originals for you right this one great lord in Veda who not spoken about as much as he should be when it comes to what his contribution was to Calypso and, more particularly, what his contribution was to the formation or the earliest days of reggae.
1:08:22
Speaker 1: Let's do this song right and hear where this song comes from.
1:09:00
Speaker 2: The stars shine so bright, but they're fading at the dawn.
1:09:07
Speaker 2: There is magic in Kingston town.
1:09:14
Speaker 2: Oh, Kingston town, the place I long to be.
1:09:22
Speaker 2: If I had the whole world, I would give it away just to see the girls I play when I am king.
1:09:41
Speaker 2: Surely I would need a queen and a palace and everything when I am king.
1:09:58
Speaker 2: Then my queen will leave from the dawn.
1:10:14
Speaker 1: I'll be the queen in Kingston town.
1:10:16
Speaker 1: If I had known Lord in Veda's original singer, and had been compensated, I believe it would have taken and made it into a hit.
1:10:39
Speaker 1: That was his only song that was globally recognized.
1:10:44
Speaker 1: He was compensated for Kingston town, but this is another one that he had to go and sue in court to get money from the Andrews sisters.
1:11:10
Speaker 1: Tell me if you know this.
1:11:24
Speaker 3: When the Yankees first went to train the braddle, some of the young girls were more than bladder.
1:11:30
Speaker 3: They said that the Yankees treat them nice and they give them a better price.
1:11:37
Speaker 3: They buy rum and co-co-colder when done point, full manner, both mother and daughter working for the Yankee dollar.
1:11:52
Speaker 5: And look, I had a little chica, the other day, but her mother came and took her away Her self, her mother and her sister went and made cab with some solders.
1:12:17
Speaker 3: They bought rum and co-colder when done point full manner.
1:12:24
Speaker 3: Both mother and daughter working for the Yankee dollar.
1:12:29
Speaker 3: They have summer restores in Port of Spain I know a lot but I won't call them and in the day they wouldn't give you a ride.
1:12:51
Speaker 3: But you could see them with the foreigners late at night drinking rum and co-co-colder Going down point full manner.
1:13:01
Speaker 3: Both mother and daughter working for the Yankee dollar.
1:13:09
Speaker 1: What are they doing for the Yankee dollar?
1:13:19
Speaker 3: I know a couple who got married one afternoon.
1:13:22
Speaker 3: I was to go to Miami on the honeymoon but the bride run away with a solder lad and the stupid husband went staring at the board.
1:13:32
Speaker 3: They bought rum and co-colder when done point, full manner, both mother and daughter working for the Yankee dollar.
1:13:48
Speaker 1: So let's go and google the Andrew Sisters.
1:13:50
Speaker 1: It's also not the Andrew Sisters version of that, it's a high-pitched version of the song.
1:13:54
Speaker 1: So Lord and Vader eventually.
1:13:56
Speaker 1: So unguess settlement for that.
1:13:57
Speaker 1: So just pointing out that the genesis of a lot of international music would have come from right here too, and that's something we will cover every week in this podcast.
1:14:06
Speaker 1: That's what we hear, that's what we reason, that's what we say, that's our purpose.
1:14:12
Speaker 1: I could shift gears a little bit.
1:14:13
Speaker 1: I see a lot of technical papers.
1:14:14
Speaker 1: Yesterday I wanted to point out something, because Lula Christopher, here with our new commissioner of police, was in the papers this week talking about murders going down.
1:14:25
Speaker 1: I have a theory as to why murders going down?
1:14:27
Speaker 1: Because we so poor at solving crimes that people stop killing witnesses.
1:14:32
Speaker 1: They say, just let the witness live, it doesn't matter if the witness live or not.
1:14:35
Speaker 1: So at least our witness are winning, our witness are winning.
1:14:38
Speaker 1: They don't matter, don't want to all hell break loose.
1:14:41
Speaker 1: And sometimes, when you look at our approach, the crime is making one day and this article by Joel Julian summing up some of it from me.
1:14:47
Speaker 1: I want you to think to yourself the last time you're here.
1:14:51
Speaker 1: Are profit by a bank?
1:14:55
Speaker 1: There's this name, a bank in Trinidad and Tobago, and let me know what kind of figure you're coming up with in your mind for the last profit figure you hear from a bank I hear in billion dollars eight hundred and something million, five, six hundred million.
1:15:07
Speaker 1: So I mean each one of the and this is one year's profit.
1:15:10
Speaker 1: If you're making that year on year, it means that in a decade it's billions of dollars you're coming out with when the decade comes Right.
1:15:18
Speaker 1: And then I'm to see an article because they say that the other day, despite what Euler said, maybe murders gone down in relation to house breaking, robbery, all them different, and maybe they should be comparing it as a pie chart.
1:15:33
Speaker 1: You know murders going down because everything else going up.
1:15:35
Speaker 1: But one of the things that has been happening for a long time is that you leave in the bank now and you take out money and somebody you know you get robbed miraculously.
1:15:43
Speaker 1: Nobody from banking call and tell them you take out a lot of money and things, but it just happened to randomly pick your car and you get robbed.
1:15:50
Speaker 1: We've seen several videos with that over time.
1:15:53
Speaker 1: So the bankers association of Trinidad and Tobago.
1:15:58
Speaker 1: So the headline here by Joel Julian is that offers $10,000 reward is bankers association of Trinidad and Tobago.
1:16:03
Speaker 1: The bankers association of Trinidad and Tobago is offering a reward of $10,000 for information related to the robberies where people who are just withdrawn money from commercial banks were targeted.
1:16:12
Speaker 1: But hey, but where's this really bad?
1:16:22
Speaker 1: We want to solve this thing, or we want information from it or not, because, listen, the story came about because somebody get the bag stolen.
1:16:33
Speaker 1: Let me read through the whole thing right so you see understanding context.
1:16:36
Speaker 1: This offer of a cash reward comes after battle notes last month that it will be partner in the crime stoppers of Trinidad and Tobago to address the grain concern.
1:16:44
Speaker 1: Bankers association of Trinidad and Tobago is seeking your assistance in solving a number of robberies related to customers on route from banks to other premises.
1:16:53
Speaker 1: A newspaper advertisement said yesterday the men take out a ad, the ad could have cost $10,000.
1:17:00
Speaker 1: The men take out a newspaper ad.
1:17:02
Speaker 1: Listen, we good back one.
1:17:04
Speaker 1: Bad is offering a cash reward of $10,000 for useful information that leads to the arrest of anyone responsible for one of those robberies.
1:17:10
Speaker 1: Do you have any information or suspicions related to any of those robberies?
1:17:14
Speaker 1: Have you heard of someone speaking about one of these incidents?
1:17:18
Speaker 1: Bad stated in the advertisement.
1:17:20
Speaker 1: One of the most recent incidents was last week when Carla Ferreira, the wife of National Insurance Board Chairman Patrick Ferreira, was attacked and robbed at her Westmoreens home Not long after she left her bank, for her told of investigators she believes she was being followed.
1:17:36
Speaker 1: After leaving the bank, she said she went to withdraw money.
1:17:39
Speaker 1: However, while waiting in line, she started to feel lightheaded and decided to go home without conducting her transaction.
1:17:44
Speaker 1: I want to take note of this Because if the accusation is that allegedly people in the bank sharing information with the criminal friend, and if you're sharing information, you are criminal too, right?
1:17:54
Speaker 1: Which means they know this woman is a custom coming and withdrawing money, so they don't say when she's there and they don't make their call and they say, right, she leaving.
1:18:04
Speaker 1: Now they forget to go back and check to see if she actually withdrawed money or not.
1:18:08
Speaker 1: It went on to say as a result, the bag which was stolen only contained $3.00, her bank cards and her ID cards.
1:18:13
Speaker 1: No, thank God, this what I mean.
1:18:14
Speaker 1: But like, look at me, I was listening to somebody on her podcast recently talking about when something happened here.
1:18:20
Speaker 1: Right, whether we paint it as negative or positive, is our call solution after Linda Ulrich, right, she was talking about damaging her foot in several places and she said you know, she was able to pause any moment and say is this a good thing or a bad thing, who knows?
1:18:35
Speaker 1: Sometimes I try to pick up that mantra for myself, right, so that even though I struggle in the up to now like I waking up every morning with headache and this COVID and want to leave man I tired the list thing I do again completely exhausted, fast.
1:18:49
Speaker 1: But I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
1:18:53
Speaker 1: Maybe this is just where I'm supposed to be at this point in time for greater things to happen.
1:18:58
Speaker 1: And the pressure I learned some pressure in work.
1:19:01
Speaker 1: I had a class recently for the first time in a long time.
1:19:04
Speaker 1: I had a whole, a good bit of people in a class who, in my opinion, would have done really well in the papers and they didn't get any marks.
1:19:12
Speaker 1: I feel they deserve Pressure and stress.
1:19:14
Speaker 1: But I keep telling myself, boy, is this one of them?
1:19:19
Speaker 1: Situations where you're getting prepared for something else, all these challenges and the way you're feeling and things, is it setting you up for something bigger?
1:19:27
Speaker 1: And again, I keep referring to Denise Plummer.
1:19:30
Speaker 1: I get her committed to doing that.
1:19:31
Speaker 1: You know I will do that right.
1:19:33
Speaker 1: You could bank on that.
1:19:34
Speaker 1: But one of the things about Denise Plummer is the baptism of fire that she gets to start her career could have stopped anybody else from moving on in that career at any point in time, and she takes that and turns that into one of the greatest careers in the history of Calypso music.
1:19:50
Speaker 1: So sometimes in making a one day, you know, is this a good thing or a bad thing?
1:19:53
Speaker 1: I don't know.
1:19:54
Speaker 1: Let me just accept what it is and go through the preparation, go through the pain and the suffering for what is to come, for what is the greater thing that is ahead.
1:20:02
Speaker 1: And it goes back to the story, because that lightheadedness that you're feeling you ain't gonna feel good, you feel like you want to pass out.
1:20:08
Speaker 1: You're wondering, but why?
1:20:08
Speaker 1: This happened to me while I'm feeling.
1:20:10
Speaker 1: So let's say we're from something, because you're here now with drawing money and the company is gonna get rid of us.
1:20:14
Speaker 1: So anyway, bankers Association is taking this seriously and they're not making no joke where this is concerned.
1:20:20
Speaker 1: Hence the reason they're offering a whopping $10,000.
1:20:24
Speaker 1: You cannot go wrong here.
1:20:26
Speaker 1: The increasing frequency here, what I say, the increasing frequency here are rubbries like this, caused Bat to issue two releases in recent times.
1:20:33
Speaker 1: On July 12, bat said it acknowledged with great concern the increased risk faced by clients before and after they visited all branches and ATMs.
1:20:42
Speaker 1: In an effort to combat the uptake of these criminal activities, bat has strengthened its coordination efforts among all banks, broadened its interaction with the Trinidad and Tobago police service and is finalizing a partnership with Crime Stoppers Trinidad and Tobago Limited with a view to mitigating and managing any incidents of this nature collectively and expeditiously.
1:21:03
Speaker 1: But if you had take right for them holding the word this, if you had given $1,000 a word for that you come up with, you could still get a better offer than this.
1:21:15
Speaker 1: This is embarrassing.
1:21:17
Speaker 1: We'd like to assure our clients that their safety remains a primary concern.
1:21:22
Speaker 1: $10,000 worth of primary concern.
1:21:24
Speaker 1: Remember billions of dollars a year in profit by everybody who's a part of this association.
1:21:31
Speaker 1: We are 10 banking Trinidad.
1:21:34
Speaker 1: That means each bank give back a thousand man getting robbed.
1:21:39
Speaker 1: For I sure Miss Pereira went out to take out.
1:21:42
Speaker 1: If she didn't take out $10,000 it would be a good percentage of $10,000.
1:21:46
Speaker 1: She must have gone take out 20 to 20% of that $10,000 and they commented on robbing the woman that, and they say, never uptick in robbery.
1:21:54
Speaker 1: So if everybody getting robbed $2,500.
1:21:56
Speaker 1: Holy well, interpay a whopping 10,000.
1:22:05
Speaker 1: We remind clients to remain alert.
1:22:06
Speaker 1: This is what this is most important part here Remind clients to remain alert and pay attention to your surroundings and environs when leaving the bank premises and notify the bank and police right away if any suspicious activity or individuals are noticed.
1:22:21
Speaker 1: This is so good on you.
1:22:22
Speaker 1: This is so good on you that also advised bank customers to take precautions when performing transactions, such as using online banking platforms, to minimize cash withdrawals, shielding one's pin at the numbered point of sale machines and avoid clicking unsolicited emails.
1:22:39
Speaker 1: And, of course, if anything happened, like you with respect to the robberies, call 800TIPS and submit a tip online at wwwcrimestopperscom.
1:22:48
Speaker 1: And, just in case you're interested, post and providing tips to Crime Stoppers and collecting cash rewards have always remained anonymous and the, as the advertisement stated, so Crime Stoppers said the system has been used successfully since 1999 and now the bankers association?
1:23:04
Speaker 1: So 1999, right?
1:23:05
Speaker 1: How much years between 2023 and 1999?
1:23:08
Speaker 1: Let me do some quick maths for you here.
1:23:11
Speaker 1: Right?
1:23:12
Speaker 1: 2023 minus 1999 equals 24 years.
1:23:19
Speaker 1: Let me say they make half a billion dollars in profit every year.
1:23:24
Speaker 1: I wonder if this thing could calculate I'm going to turn it sideways, because the numbers begin 500 million by 24 years is 12.
1:23:34
Speaker 1: How much is this here?
1:23:36
Speaker 1: Me no, it's a 3-setter, triple zeros.
1:23:39
Speaker 1: That's 12 billion dollars.
1:23:41
Speaker 1: Me no, it's 12 billion or 12 trillion.
1:23:45
Speaker 1: I want to divide this figure by 10,000 to get a percentage Like 10,000 divided by 12,123,123,123.
1:23:54
Speaker 1: I'm so good at maths though, but what they have contributed to help stop this crime, if you're willing to come together and stop this spate of issues that has come from 1999.
1:24:05
Speaker 1: Crime Stoppers has been stopping crime, people getting robbed outside of banks and so on.
1:24:09
Speaker 1: They are willing to offer you here 0.000008% of their profits over the last 20 years.
1:24:17
Speaker 1: You cannot go wrong.
1:24:18
Speaker 1: No crime could be a issue in this country.
1:24:20
Speaker 1: You see crime easy to solve.
1:24:21
Speaker 1: Thank you to the Bankers Association for your proactive approach to stopping this.
1:24:26
Speaker 1: Let me go back to congratulating Tengwe Kaltes Katoong.
1:24:28
Speaker 1: I want to congratulate everybody who was involved in naming the Trinidad and Tobago Street at the intersection of 131st Street and Liberty Avenue in New York while I was gone.
1:24:39
Speaker 1: In my absence, I see whole fat going on.
1:24:43
Speaker 1: I feel proud to look at everybody involved in this.
1:24:51
Speaker 1: I see several artists performing I can't remember it was Natasha Wilson or was that an independent thing.
1:25:02
Speaker 1: I was watching when Natasha Wilson was performing.
1:25:03
Speaker 1: They had performances and they had tassas and default works.
1:25:06
Speaker 1: You know what was nice.
1:25:07
Speaker 1: Trinidadians in New York came out and support and make it into something.
1:25:17
Speaker 1: I remember this experience I had.
1:25:19
Speaker 1: I had to renew my visa.
1:25:23
Speaker 1: Was it passport?
1:25:24
Speaker 1: It could have been passport.
1:25:25
Speaker 1: I was in Jamaica at the time and moving back to Trinidad, but the process was very long to get appointment dates.
1:25:32
Speaker 1: At that time I decided to do it in Miami.
1:25:34
Speaker 1: I had the appointment in Miami Consulate.
1:25:39
Speaker 1: I went there to do the application and I met up a family who came from far.
1:25:50
Speaker 1: I can't remember how long.
1:25:50
Speaker 1: They drive some ridiculously long distance to come and sort all the passports.
1:25:54
Speaker 1: They live in over there but they drive hours and hours to get there.
1:25:57
Speaker 1: You know what was nice.
1:25:58
Speaker 1: They walk with heavy sandwich and juice and all these things and they all have to drink the offer.
1:26:03
Speaker 1: Man, there's something that we still have that's very uniquely Caribbean and that little gathering where I saw their renaming.
1:26:12
Speaker 1: Once we first reached Trinidad and Tobago Street, it seemed like that kind of atmosphere.
1:26:20
Speaker 1: Everybody had a togetherness and they had on their red and it just seemed like a place where Parasite sharing out and you know what I mean man sharing out the little sandwich and the juice.
1:26:28
Speaker 1: I didn't see none of that, but it just feel like that kind of vibe and that kind of energy and it's something that it makes you wonder how much of that do we still have and can we still live like that?
1:26:41
Speaker 1: Is that a long time thing?
1:26:42
Speaker 1: Are we so self-serving now that we only study ourselves and our immediate family?
1:26:48
Speaker 1: We don't see Trinidad and Tobago as our family?
1:26:51
Speaker 1: I saw this.
1:26:52
Speaker 1: This is not in Trinidad.
1:26:53
Speaker 1: I saw this online this week where a woman was crying, the whole side of her face was swollen and she was saying that a man hit her with a brick for not giving her she didn't give him her number, like he was asking for her number and she didn't give him and he hit her with a brick.
1:27:13
Speaker 1: Now, unless that person completely insane, there may be more to the story about what the woman would say or do to him.
1:27:19
Speaker 1: And what I just find really strange is the comments online.
1:27:25
Speaker 1: Right, because I talk about this all the time.
1:27:27
Speaker 1: You see advantageous situations.
1:27:30
Speaker 1: I don't like it and I can tell you this.
1:27:32
Speaker 1: I am not standing there.
1:27:33
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the era I was born in or my age or just the things I've been through, or I have a mother.
1:27:40
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
1:27:41
Speaker 1: Everybody has a mother.
1:27:42
Speaker 1: But you know, maybe I have a little bit of more protective nature.
1:27:46
Speaker 1: We can grow up with my mother alone and I don't know, because I'm not standing by and watching that I know from this era where everything politically correct and man had to have this rule and woman had to have this and woman is the thing, and I'm not from that era at all.
1:28:00
Speaker 1: I see myself as a protector and provider.
1:28:03
Speaker 1: Maybe I could call it patriarchy.
1:28:06
Speaker 1: I don't care how much of a different pronoun or teach me how much I'm thinking I have to say.
1:28:10
Speaker 1: But you see, when you see me, when I go in and out with somebody as a woman, as if I go in and out with a woman, that woman is my responsibility.
1:28:17
Speaker 1: I see somebody post something on Facebook the other day saying any child around me safe.
1:28:21
Speaker 1: I like that.
1:28:22
Speaker 1: That's my attitude.
1:28:23
Speaker 1: You see, any little child around me.
1:28:25
Speaker 1: I want to tell them something nice.
1:28:27
Speaker 1: I want to tell them how beautiful they are, how smart they are, how good they play.
1:28:30
Speaker 1: I want to say something nice to them as a little child.
1:28:33
Speaker 1: Any woman around me safe, I don't care it have no strangers in this world.
1:28:37
Speaker 1: That idea of a stranger is a farce.
1:28:40
Speaker 1: It's not a real concept.
1:28:42
Speaker 1: There's no such thing as a stranger.
1:28:43
Speaker 1: All of us are just one entity.
1:28:46
Speaker 1: So this thing went on online and sometimes I think like the response to something's obvious.
1:28:54
Speaker 1: A woman gets hit with a brick, everybody must be saying wow, that's a terrible thing.
1:29:01
Speaker 1: But, boy, social media surprises every single time because many comments basically saying there's one guy respond to an Azrael type outing and delete it.
1:29:12
Speaker 1: But this fella didn't understand me.
1:29:13
Speaker 1: He say yeah right, a man just hit you with a brick.
1:29:16
Speaker 1: Why don't tell us what you do?
1:29:17
Speaker 1: For that man Hit you with a brick and I was like hit you with that brick.
1:29:20
Speaker 1: I respond and I said boss, listen, I want to understand, like genuine question, what she could have do that you would look back and say, well, it warrants hitting her with a brick.
1:29:32
Speaker 1: One other fella respond and say well, he said no disrespect, I ain't trying to start nothing, but supposedly she had a brick too.
1:29:41
Speaker 1: My response to that is I don't stand in man watching none of that.
1:29:43
Speaker 1: If I say it somewhere and somebody is them kind of eye looking to play peacemaker, that could be the enemy, you know, but I cannot stand by and watch them thing.
1:29:51
Speaker 1: Maybe I talk and I mean, I could only talk from my point of view on my experience.
1:29:58
Speaker 1: I don't know woman who could hit me with a brick so hard that my only way out is to hit her with a brick.
1:30:03
Speaker 1: I doubt you will land that brick.
1:30:04
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's run the road see or something coming to hit me with a brick or whatever it is, but I doubt you will land that and I feel like it hit you one of these quick.
1:30:14
Speaker 1: I'm a rapper man.
1:30:15
Speaker 1: I'm a rapper man.
1:30:16
Speaker 1: So if you're trying to swing at me, I don't rap you up quick.
1:30:18
Speaker 1: We're not fighting and not doing that.
1:30:21
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that situations might not come out where woman advantage a man, but less than more, plenty less than more.
1:30:27
Speaker 1: And if a cast stand by and watch them things, and one of these things women are crying about is a whole bunch of black men stand up there and nobody help her and the comments is basically that boy, I don't get involved in people saying I don't want to lose my life and this thing, this notion that somebody is a stranger, is so foolish because you stand up and watch a woman get hit with a brick and your first thought is self preservation, I must get it dropped on the man.
1:30:55
Speaker 1: You understand, I see.
1:30:56
Speaker 1: I see there's a thing going on online about one of the Asian countries I want to say, like Japan or something, where it seemed like a mentally ill person wielding a knife and the police distract the person long enough for somebody to hit you.
1:31:10
Speaker 1: One garbage pant to put the head, bam, knock out.
1:31:13
Speaker 1: If you know what the time and the knife drop on.
1:31:15
Speaker 1: You know the collective could take care of these kinds of things if it's a bunch of us, even if it's a mad person.
1:31:21
Speaker 1: Waving at a brick is not even to say is a gun.
1:31:24
Speaker 1: Where could?
1:31:24
Speaker 1: Is instant that how much we can hit a brick?
1:31:27
Speaker 1: He can hit me.
1:31:27
Speaker 1: That break if all are we running same time.
1:31:29
Speaker 1: But boy, it look like these days you're on your own if you, if you get involved, because a lot of the comments was that the woman could have provoked him.
1:31:36
Speaker 1: One man even say women like to humiliate men and tell them that they gay or they or they or they or they, things like that, and it's like so this is, this is what we going with this.
1:31:46
Speaker 1: This, this is the and I just want to appreciate that only talking about this because of the amount of responses from men you're seeing, basically saying, well, make the stallions say they don't need men and all the moment is chair, you know, I mean, hey, everybody, we don't need men, so not what, they don't need their eye car.
1:32:05
Speaker 1: I can't buy into that.
1:32:06
Speaker 1: If you tell me you don't need men and I see somebody commented, hit your break, I was still happy, I don't matter to me.
1:32:13
Speaker 1: That they again the emotional strangers is foolish, because everybody you know now would have been a stranger at some point, except the people who birthed you.
1:32:22
Speaker 1: Right second to that, let we say in the 80 am, and a guy bad feeling like Miss Perero and your drop down.
1:32:31
Speaker 1: Who's the stranger then?
1:32:32
Speaker 1: The strangers?
1:32:33
Speaker 1: The man who driving the ambulance, a carrying, carry down, or the doctor who will help you?
1:32:36
Speaker 1: Or the people in the 80 am who will pick you up and help you or call police for you?
1:32:39
Speaker 1: And who exactly is the stranger?
1:32:42
Speaker 1: Which one of them is the stranger?
1:32:43
Speaker 1: The gratitude you will feel for that same stranger in a situation where you need help.
1:32:50
Speaker 1: Anyway, that is something else.
1:32:57
Speaker 1: So when I go back and look at the unveiling of the street in Trinidad more than just the national pride and seeing that we have our own street in New York and those things, those things used to mean a lot to me long time.
1:33:08
Speaker 1: I guess they still do.
1:33:09
Speaker 1: I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it.
1:33:13
Speaker 1: And I know all these people were strangers but because we had to come and try to be in Trinidad and we could come together and share and enjoy our culture.
1:33:28
Speaker 1: So my points are trying to make about this whole thing with us as men, women, and this whole idea of strangers.
1:33:36
Speaker 1: Maybe we could start seeing the commonalities in one another and look for happy differences, to look for educational differences where I could be completely different from you, as stranger to you, and basically, maybe we could learn something from one another, maybe we could change each other perspective, maybe we could support and protect and help one another.
1:33:58
Speaker 1: Or maybe we could just offer somebody $10,000 if they know who hit, who break and they can't hang in on me, who can come up with $10,000 after 24 years are perfect.
1:34:06
Speaker 1: I just feel as good to salute to everybody who was involved in that.
1:34:10
Speaker 1: You're seeing the same atmosphere in the CPL cricket again.
1:34:12
Speaker 1: I spoke with my example going to Guyana and back in Trinidad and how nice that was.
1:34:17
Speaker 1: As I feel and that's something I will do again if I do it again at the stadium, I stay in there because I can't deal with Guyana traffic in real life.
1:34:28
Speaker 1: The cutiousness of the drivers isn't fully formed yet, so I can't deal with that.
1:34:32
Speaker 1: But I definitely will go back to other territories to watch cricket too, because in the cricket, as much as the cricket's franchise cricket, you see, not to get in this and he stands that we would only see back in the day for test cricket where everybody walk with a fool.
1:34:47
Speaker 1: How do you think to know that?
1:34:48
Speaker 1: I think this week is when he turned to that and the game is starting, so I'll come back and tell you how it went in terms of not being able to carry nothing in the stadiums, how upset people were by it or if we just conformed to the rules.
1:35:05
Speaker 1: Before I get out here, I just want to make mention that this week we have Soca Warriors playing.
1:35:11
Speaker 1: A believe is the Conker Kaif Nations League Cup.
1:35:14
Speaker 1: Is that the name of the thing?
1:35:15
Speaker 1: Is it possible for me to get anything right here?
1:35:18
Speaker 1: Conker Kaif Nations League and we have matches done Thursday this September against Curaçao, this 10th of September against El Salvador and then the 13th of October against Guatemala.
1:35:34
Speaker 1: This game on Thursdays against is in the stadium, so I might go down there and take it, depending on how I'm feeling.
1:35:41
Speaker 1: But I'm feeling right here to know I'm back to myself yet.
1:35:43
Speaker 1: I'm 100%.
1:35:44
Speaker 1: I don't like to miss Soca Warriors games, so I'll try to be there.
1:35:48
Speaker 1: But let's see how that goes.
1:35:50
Speaker 1: The last of the results we had, if you remember the goal cup, we start over the resounding victory of us in Ketetrinil, but then we get trounced by Jamaica for one and get 6-0.
1:36:08
Speaker 1: In any game against the States, we never look like we're playing football against the States.
1:36:12
Speaker 1: We look outmatched against Jamaica, but against the States we never look like nothing.
1:36:17
Speaker 1: Now, angus Eve has since been kept on as the national coach, but I have fully back in Angus.
1:36:25
Speaker 1: I'm there, 100% behind him, but it's looking good.
1:36:35
Speaker 1: Everybody who knows anything about football calling for Angus.
1:36:39
Speaker 1: Here in this country, there seems to be very little support for Angus Eve among the knowledgeable.
1:36:44
Speaker 1: I'm just a fan.
1:36:45
Speaker 1: I deal more in hope than in facts.
1:36:48
Speaker 1: I try to refute facts with hope and aspirations.
1:36:53
Speaker 1: I don't like people to say nothing bad, but he said, because I want to just stay hopeful and naive, I want Soca Warriors to go there 2026.
1:37:00
Speaker 1: We have a vision, we have a mission, we have a goal to get to right.
1:37:04
Speaker 1: But it doesn't seem as though many people but one man who back in him is had had his in charge of the normalization committee and he has given Angus Eve his vote of confidence and Angus is the coach who will lead us into the Concordav nations.
1:37:16
Speaker 1: Just when all the experts were saying that and I was just turning a blind eye and pretending I didn't see any bad words about Angus we could go back in Angus 100%.
1:37:25
Speaker 1: I saw a strange message this week on our Instagram page from a man formerly known as Nash, who we know as Kevin Molino, and all of a sudden he retired.
1:37:37
Speaker 1: Now if you know about Kevin Molino, right, I've been having this argument with people for a long time.
1:37:42
Speaker 1: In modern day Soca Warriors football, kevin Molino is all messy.
1:37:46
Speaker 1: This man has more goals than everybody else in modern day football.
1:37:51
Speaker 1: Before the golden era, football would have been college strikes got all the way to the original Soca Warriors, who went to the World Cup and even the 2010 campaign.
1:38:01
Speaker 1: All that is big side in Trinidad over the years, right, missing a few campaigns, but generally speaking he's at the forester record within the Caribbean Since 2010.
1:38:11
Speaker 1: Looking so great.
1:38:12
Speaker 1: We're not looking good, you know.
1:38:13
Speaker 1: I mean we lost into Guyana, Puerto Rico, all these kinds of things.
1:38:17
Speaker 1: We have been under some pressure in the region and in football in general, right, football and shambles as Jack Warner goes, so do we.
1:38:25
Speaker 1: So we had some problems, right, and within all that, in this modern time here, kevin Molino is a bright spot in them thing.
1:38:35
Speaker 1: He has a way of turning games, he has a way of scoring.
1:38:39
Speaker 1: I always remember being in his stadium and watching them play and Dennis Lawrence and like a player had got injured I can't remember who.
1:38:45
Speaker 1: He was playing against one of the Latin American teams and a player had come off and you know, when he got injured, he had to come off.
1:38:50
Speaker 1: He was on his sideline and Molino had picked up the ball and Dennis Lawrence was like hey, and they shout out to him to just basically tell him hey, they won short run at them and Molino picked up their ball from half field, dribbled at men and shoot from a multi-side box and scored this way.
1:39:04
Speaker 1: He used to do right and he had some injuries and so on.
1:39:09
Speaker 1: But I wasn't expecting to see somebody like Kevin Molino, who just play in that goal cup, retire to the two years old, if I'm not mistaken.
1:39:18
Speaker 1: So I felt like something wasn't right.
1:39:20
Speaker 1: I say something in right to the story.
1:39:22
Speaker 1: I believe that Molino would just retire.
1:39:25
Speaker 1: Something, something happening here, sure enough.
1:39:28
Speaker 1: Open the papers and see, oh, people up this thing, and I see Lassana them talking about Molino and apparently he here, he retired just so.
1:39:37
Speaker 1: So from Lassana here.
1:39:38
Speaker 1: Lassana article and it must be long, let me get it quick Turned out to Bego International midfield ace Kevin Molino said he will not represent his country again on the Soco Warriors head coach Angus Eve, and gave a stinging review of Eve's stewardship of the men's national senior team.
1:39:53
Speaker 1: So apparently it's not just a retirement, because I just find it strange that when he say he retire, when I look at the comments online, everybody's like thanks boy, thanks for your contribution.
1:40:02
Speaker 1: I was like oh, they don't find something strange about this.
1:40:04
Speaker 1: How come everybody just saying congrats on your career and this man has plenty more that he could offer he says for me, I'm done.
1:40:11
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a part of this mess.
1:40:12
Speaker 1: The two the three-year-old Columbus crew player told me why they took it.
1:40:15
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a part of this setup where the national coach is usually the national team for his own benefit.
1:40:19
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a part of that For me.
1:40:22
Speaker 1: He lost the locker room.
1:40:23
Speaker 1: A hundred percent.
1:40:24
Speaker 1: He lost the locker room.
1:40:26
Speaker 1: Ironically, molino was Eve's captain at the 2023 Gold Cup and on Wednesday, the national head coach named him in the 40 man shortlist, but now he retired.
1:40:34
Speaker 1: Right, I want to go back to his quotes.
1:40:37
Speaker 1: He said the beautiful game should never feel like stress.
1:40:40
Speaker 1: He said Molino claimed that his Gold Cup experience left him so depressed that his club arranged therapy to get him back in the right frame of mind.
1:40:47
Speaker 1: They have some more quotes.
1:40:50
Speaker 1: He said he's claiming that when they were talking about match fees, and his claim is that he they argue about match fees because the statements coming from the normalization committee and everybody who represents them is that, hey, the international players could hold some strain or they felt as game pay big money, you know, I mean, and he's basically saying that that is not fair.
1:41:11
Speaker 1: He had a fight not just for himself and money for himself but for the younger players, as he said.
1:41:17
Speaker 1: As far as I can see, remember the read where he quoted he said I was a young player once.
1:41:20
Speaker 1: I remember how it feels we want every player at the end of a big tournament like this to be able to buy a little foreign news car or something.
1:41:26
Speaker 1: We just can't represent ourselves.
1:41:27
Speaker 1: We have to represent the younger players too.
1:41:29
Speaker 1: I find nice fear.
1:41:30
Speaker 1: He said the so-called warriors got 1500 per match at the gold cup, plus bonuses, and Molino claimed that the normalization committee offered a thousand dollars to try and try to get the foreign base players to accept it on the grounds that they earned most of the income from clubs abroad anyway.
1:41:45
Speaker 1: So I guess the normalization committee crying broken and trying to figure it out at some point in the back and forth.
1:41:51
Speaker 1: He said anger, say doubly the normalization committee.
1:41:54
Speaker 1: And then when they settle on two thousand dollars, a player Angus apparently telling men and them are they gonna fight them for more money?
1:42:01
Speaker 1: Now we technical team are to take less money now that go cause a rift between players anywhere.
1:42:05
Speaker 1: Right, I mean the issue.
1:42:07
Speaker 1: There is still the normalization committee and the funding for our football, but nobody gonna feel about that good about that and that's sure to cause issues.
1:42:16
Speaker 1: One of the more important I don't want to say more important for me as a fan, because I want the players to be played as much as they could be played so that the best players come back and represent the team every time.
1:42:27
Speaker 1: So, not discounting that, but in terms of backing the side and watching what's going on and they feel there's one more Linus here, right, listen, there's not much tactics to work with, it's all individual.
1:42:38
Speaker 1: There's no clear idea of how we want to defend, no clear idea of how we want to attack or what wing we want to go down.
1:42:44
Speaker 1: We don't have passing combinations to create overloads, your dosy relationships between our different lines.
1:42:49
Speaker 1: We don't have a style of play.
1:42:50
Speaker 1: We don't have a clear idea what we want to do.
1:42:52
Speaker 1: It was only individual moments.
1:42:54
Speaker 1: You do this, you do that and, as he said as well, as if coaching style.
1:42:58
Speaker 1: He says some coaches don't want to be challenged and the moment the coach was challenged after the Jamaica game, it become a big, big problem.
1:43:05
Speaker 1: We had a meeting and discussed what happened.
1:43:06
Speaker 1: A lot of players said a lot of things.
1:43:08
Speaker 1: Marvin Philip was saying that, saying we don't know what we are doing, and for me I know that was the end of Marvin.
1:43:14
Speaker 1: I spoke up and Sheldon Batto spoke up.
1:43:16
Speaker 1: I said we focus too much on the opponent and not what we want to do or how we want to break down the opponent.
1:43:22
Speaker 1: We discussed why we change formation from the syncs in kids game and he didn't want to discuss that at all.
1:43:29
Speaker 1: Now, from the armchair pundits now these are not the experts, right?
1:43:33
Speaker 1: That was one of the bigger criticisms from the Facebook people than the commenters.
1:43:39
Speaker 1: They're saying that every time angus play a new game, it's a new formation, it's a whole set of new players, it's a new style.
1:43:46
Speaker 1: These are the things you see in the armchair pundits saying right, molnogos wants to say this is a job where you have to deal with criticism, whether you are a coach or a player.
1:43:55
Speaker 1: If you don't want that, then there's not a job for you working at grocery or wash gas or something.
1:43:59
Speaker 1: But he must never be criticized and never be challenged on anything concerning football, whether it's from the fans or the players or anyone.
1:44:07
Speaker 1: I remember one time after winning one of his first games, a little video clip had come out from the dressing room and he had kind of cussed up and said, boy, tell them people on wire and all them kind of things.
1:44:22
Speaker 1: And I said Lissana, you, and I told you, angus appeared on the brilliant body podcast.
1:44:27
Speaker 1: He said yeah, he said he messaged him about it.
1:44:29
Speaker 1: But angus say he was not talking about wired like Lissana.
1:44:33
Speaker 1: And then he was more talking about the commenters on wired page, which the commenters do get wired to be fair.
1:44:39
Speaker 1: But um, they didn't seem to me like he was talking about commenters at the time, if I'm being honest, and um, that's a little bit worrying now.
1:44:48
Speaker 1: Lissana was fair when he went deep into this article to say that Molino did have issues before and I remember him being sidelined under Stephen Hart for both ride issues.
1:45:00
Speaker 1: Only remember the both ride situation.
1:45:01
Speaker 1: I remember having a long argument to look boy.
1:45:04
Speaker 1: I remember having a every time me, and I'll argues be forever, because I remember having a long argument with him back then and, in fairness, the all point was there's no bigger player than the team and if Molino had to get um, if he had to get banned, if he had to get dropped, if he had to get left out, he had to get left out.
1:45:24
Speaker 1: And my argument was the if messy go out, both ride.
1:45:29
Speaker 1: Yes, you place messy, and Molino is not messy, but Molino we messy, because them days especially, the team was at the front team attacking wise if you don't have him on the field.
1:45:41
Speaker 1: But again, I mean Aliza man, no more about football, and especially when it comes to from the coaching and technical standpoint, I'm more officiating than me.
1:45:49
Speaker 1: So, and I mean Steve Mart went along with him.
1:45:52
Speaker 1: Steve Matt banned him, as I sort of remember, is it called El Kato, who showed up to camp with his wife and each other, and they sent him home too.
1:45:59
Speaker 1: Steve Mart was a more of a, a little bit more disciplinarian than we had seen over time, and I will say that even from a layman who don't know much about football except for small goals, sweat and all these kind of things that's an online him no much about.
1:46:14
Speaker 1: I will say that as a football fan, it is very, very clear to see under Ben Hacker days, right, it was clear when you went in the stadium like a layman like me, could see tactical changes happening on the field.
1:46:28
Speaker 1: You could see something they're trying to do when we go out there.
1:46:31
Speaker 1: I always remember one of the early games where they had tried to lock out certain players I believe it was, was it Guatemala, but I can't remember more fan.
1:46:41
Speaker 1: They could see that they tried they had taken the defense to take certain players out of the game and you could see, even when we score, how the game would change.
1:46:51
Speaker 1: I always remember Dennis Lawrence going out, going to his stadium, and it was one of the first times I'd seen, in my little view, on a Trinidad and Tobago football where the center backs were encouraged to bomb forward and, as you saw, it's a sling sling.
1:47:06
Speaker 1: John pulled out all the way to the left, a ball went out to him, he flicked the ball on and next thing was Dennis Lawrence running at the keeper and beat the keeper and score at that.
1:47:14
Speaker 1: At that moment I know we're going.
1:47:16
Speaker 1: We're going, um, we're going Germany.
1:47:20
Speaker 1: I, stephen Hart, is another one who used to see tactical changes.
1:47:23
Speaker 1: You used to see, or even to the layman like myself, the, the personnel changes used to make sense when you play certain players.
1:47:30
Speaker 1: You could see him play now a smaller team against certain teams, a smaller, faster team or a bigger team against certain teams.
1:47:35
Speaker 1: And you know, we do have.
1:47:36
Speaker 1: We haven't had a big central striker or big number nine, but we haven't had a big, tall striker that could get, get at the ball and hit the ball for a long time.
1:47:49
Speaker 1: And still, you know, you see, some some of our coaches sent fleet on and and and and Dennis Lawrence and them trying to bomb down the wing.
1:47:56
Speaker 1: And I was thinking like to come across to who, but and I know, sometimes he's can't see, he can't tell.
1:48:02
Speaker 1: But I mean, genius is our way, is kind of read night.
1:48:05
Speaker 1: And so I'm I'm eager to see what happens here and what goes on next, because, as far as Molly, no concern, which is a big loss to football to me, but I guess, if that disciplinary issues and so on, that got to be addressed differently.
1:48:16
Speaker 1: But, um, it'll be interesting to see these games coming up because we do have the.
1:48:22
Speaker 1: We have, as I say, caught, uh, el Salvador and then a couple Latin American teams to play, and it will be interesting to see how we look against those team, because Molly no, basically saying that Angus is demanding them normalization committee, more peace and he defends any salary and whatever the normalization committee want.
1:48:39
Speaker 1: That is where he gained them and it's not about the football, is about his own personal contract.
1:48:43
Speaker 1: So I can tell you this like, winning solves a lot of problems once you're winning and none of these things going to be issues, certainly for people like me and the general public.
1:48:54
Speaker 1: Let's say and then go find the um, the details in it, but when I coach winning, even the people who will want to question it, it will fall on deaf ears.
1:49:05
Speaker 1: So let's see if, um, we're going to return to the winning ways that the soka warriors, or if it's pressure we have to take for the next few years.
1:49:15
Speaker 1: I don't see any people online saying wishful thinking for everybody who have a dog that we're going anywhere near I woke up anytime soon.
1:49:23
Speaker 1: I hope that is not the case.
1:49:24
Speaker 1: So, who knows, I will learn.
1:49:26
Speaker 1: You know what happened and, according to our feeling, thursday I might well be up in the stadium.
1:49:29
Speaker 1: I don't see much, though.
1:49:30
Speaker 1: The other games are here, but I will go as much of the games as possible let me leave all the way to the tune.
1:49:35
Speaker 1: A long time I talked to all the hey, I miss all the bad, I miss all the bad.
1:49:40
Speaker 1: And again, as I say, I appreciate everybody who reach out and send little messages and them thing to say you know, I mean, if I am dead, the man is dead, the man is dead, the man right back, the man back to every week, two weeks straight.
1:49:50
Speaker 1: Not the norm for me, but given that Marshall Montana was left with the lifetime achievement award and given that Ravi B want to have the chutney involved and people vexed with them when they say Romacy problem, can I just play my favorite romsong of all time?
1:50:14
Speaker 1: And it's telling from Ravi B, but I could give a favorite romsong of all time love me.
1:51:08
Speaker 2: Hey, signal the bartender because I'm ready to put on me order and I really don't want for behavior.
1:51:14
Speaker 2: No, you don't have to want me to take your room through the party and if you're from sub the army baby, don't be surprised if they're looking for me.
1:51:22
Speaker 2: You're costing all day.
1:51:24
Speaker 2: Well, I am an adult play.
1:51:25
Speaker 2: You used to be my baby tonight.
1:51:28
Speaker 2: Tonight I need you to know.
1:51:30
Speaker 2: You ask if my love is true and thought I said I love you.
1:51:35
Speaker 2: But you know, I said you and I'm a little one, you don't need to win on me in the party.
1:51:41
Speaker 2: I'm already drunk one thing and you decided he fed give me a bottle of I love me rum and the rum, it love me, totally drunk.

1:52:11
Speaker 2: Get I say my speech getting complicated from the driver done, designated, so upon the roads I get wasted.

Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm overrated because I'm drinking rum, by the cases and I can't identify faces, so I'm picking a random bump at the jam done killing us.
1:52:27
Speaker 2: And I really don't care if you come to wine, because running on girl is a waste of time, and I think about love.
1:52:32
Speaker 2: What come to mind is rum, rum, rum, rum.
1:52:35
Speaker 2: I love my bottle of my drinking.
