FLOAT | Machel Montano HD | Trinidad Carnival 2013

This is new music from Machel Montano; the name of the song is 'FLOAT'! I don't know about this song  (if you, the listener, would like it) but the last song done by Machel and Kernal was considered a 'shit song'! Even Kernal Roberts called "Pump Yuh Flag' a 'shit song'... then Machel performed and the rest is history! 

Let me say this, I don't think Machel cares what anyone thinks about his song because as Carnival approaches he will have everyone jumping and going crazy to this very song that many, especially on islandmix.com, dislike so much.

What I find very interesting rests in the production notes for this one. The song was produced by Rama Studios (Kernal Roberts), Precision Productions (we all know how good they are) and Studio 758 out of St. Lucia. The mixing also had collaborations from Precision, Rama Studios and even Machel Montano. Finally the Mastering of the song was done by Champion Sound Studios in Port-of-Spain. We have a lot of very talented people working on this song but you know the saying, "to many cooks spoil the broth". Hmm, do you think that this is the case? Well I don't!

This song was not created to last beyond Carnival, it was created to win competitions (Power Soca Monarch and the Road March). There are many who will state that after the Carnival this song will not carry over. Carry over to what? Power Soca is Carnival music while Groovy Soca would have life after the Carnival that is not the intention of a Power Soca track! I am sure that many whom are calling the song 'garbage' will not bet against it winning one or both competitions.

I can feel you, certainly I can... you are saying that I drank the Montano Kool-Aid! So here is my question to you, would you bet against Machel Montano HD and Kernal Roberts once again? Think long and hard before answering!

Five Years and no justice for the poor!! How can we believe Trinidad and Tobago to be a just society, when it seems that celebrities and bigshots who commit crime are exempt from serving time?
Buju Banton, OJ Simpson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Louis Armstrong, Lil Wayne, Lil’ Kim, Mike Tyson, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Martha Stewart, Notorious B.I.G., Foxy Brown , Bobby Brown, James Brown, Orlando Brown, Marcus Camby, Charlie Sheen, 50 Cent, Tupac Shakur, Mike Tyson, …. are celebrities who all served or are serving their times for their crimes.
This list goes to show that IN A JUST SOCIETY, if celebrities, even though they're rich and famous, do not live above the law, like anybody else who breaks it, they can and will end up in jail. IN A JUST SOCIETY, their sentences are longer than their trials.

Is a Soca Hero above the law? Justice delayed is justice denied.
The victim, Russel Pollonais was put into a near death coma by criminals. Machel Montano and Kitchner’s son Kernel Roberts were found guilty of the crime.

IT IS TIME TO END THE MOCKERY OF JUSTICE, PEACE, AND ORDER THAT HAS EXISTED FOR TOO LONG IN T&T !!
