Interrnationally the most talked about song of the week, turned out to be Benjai and Screws "No Ebola'.  On the show we weighed-in on what our thoughts were about the release.  We also continue to visit the riddims that came out just in time for Miami Carnival.  Enjoy Carnival Mix #171

Carnival Mix # 170 - More Early 2015 Riddims

The Obsidian Awards, celebrating Caribbean and African achievements in Calgary, is on this Thanksgiving (Canada) weekend and Maxi Priest was in studio for the previous reggae show. He stuck around for a couple pics with the crew, so we played a couple of his Soca collaborations to warm up for the concert.  We also featured 3 new riddims to tease Carnival 2015.
