Music Release Notes:
With Trinidad Carnival just over the horizon, more and more songs are being released by the day.

Machel Montano HD fuels the riddim with “Pop Ah Bottle” as he invites partygoers to celebrate with their friends and live life to the fullest! He thanks his dedicated and loyal fans who continue to support him on his journey! “Leh we Pop Ah Bottle” says the Monk Monté.
Fader Notes(www.fader.com/site song was released):
Since beginning his career as a seven-year-old soca wunderkind with "Too Young to Soca", Machel Montano has been no stranger to accolades, racking up Soca Monarch Titles and Road March victories in his native Trinidad and Tobago year after year.
Now, 33 years into the music game, Montano's frenetic and upbeat brand of soca music is finally earning him stateside acclaim. This month, at Centric's Soul Train Awards, he took home the award for Best International Performance, beating out contenders like Sam Smith and Ziggy Marley for the title.
The FADER caught up with Montano to discuss shifting his focus away from the competitions that he's been involved in all his life and to chat about that one time he got Will Smith to wine on stage. Check out the interview below, and stream the premiere of his latest single, "Pop Ah Bottle" here.
