CarnivalMix-CJSW- Dec.28.2011 - Best of 2011
2011 has been a great year for Soca music; so much so that we found it a bit of a challenge to fit the " Best of the year " into a 1hr show. After going over all the music that was played for the year, as well as each of our individual choices, it was inevitable that we were not going to agree on EVERYTHING that was chosen. To simplify, we gathered together the most requested songs , the Soca Monarch Winners from as many islands as we could squeeze in, and the songs that were played the most for Carnivals around the world . (A couple of our personal choices may still have slipped in) We played the show in no particular order, but if one song had to get Track-of-the-Year , it would have to be a crowd favourite that reached further than just local Caribbean Carnivals. With a Soul Train Award nomination each for 'Best Caribbean Performance' alongside the likes of Rihanna, the field got narrowed to Machel Montano - Bend Over and Kes the Band - Wotless . Who
