Send us Fan MailEver battled a formidable foe? I have, and it's called COVID-19. Through my journey of recovery, you'll experience the realness of this virus. Then, bask in the sounds of soca music as we celebrate the queen of this genre - Destra. Her unforgettable performance at a recent event, and the heartbreaking loss of Denise Plummer, another influential figure in Caribbean music, call us to honor these icons and guide the younger generation in appreciating their contributions. Ever wondered what lies in the heart of Miami? Join me on a trip that led to a newfound appreciation for traveling, the cocoa industry in Trinidad and Tobago, and some intriguing spots like the Wyndwood Walls and Vizcaya Museum. But that's not all - we'll delve into the Caribbean Music Awards, critiquing the lack of recognition for Chutney Soka artists and saluting those who made their mark. Now, let's dig deeper and explore societal issues like gender roles, victim-blaming, and the need for unity and community. Drawing on personal experiences and incidents, we'll observe their impacts and question some recent controversies including the Soca Warriors national soccer team and the unexpected retirement of Kevin Molino. As we wrap up, let's reflect on the challenges we've faced and our commitment to our country, setting the stage for a fresh perspective on life. Join us, and let's elevate the conversation.
