Mical Teja, the young and talented singer, songwriter, and producer, has made history by winning the 2024 Roadmarch title with his song "DNA." As the bands paraded across the various judging points, it looked like Bunji Garlin had a lock on the Roadmarch competition. Masqueraders were seen singing carnival contracts "on de road." However, Mical Teja had a good lawyer who eventually rescinded all carnival contracts and contacts. After all was said and done, all the parlancing on the streets of Trinidad and Tobago, DNA by Mical Teja rode into the sunset triumphant!
This was the year of Mical Teja, who won the Young Kings Calypso Monarch title, placed fourth in the National Calypso Monarch title, and eventually captured the prestigious Roadmarch title. DNA surged on celebrating the diversity and unity of Trinidad and Tobago's culture. The sentiment was that for the first time, the good guy won (not the case for KES and Savannah Grass). We look forward to more sweet music for years to come from this very talented young singer.
In the end, it was the rhythm of the music, the vibe, and the unity of the people that propelled the Roadmarch competition to an exciting climax. To the victor go the spoils of victory; kudos to Mical Teja and his team. The Roadmarch results were announced by the Trinbago Unified Calypsonians' Organization (TUCO) on Wednesday afternoon, after a thrilling and competitive Carnival season. The Roadmarch title is one of the most coveted and prestigious awards in the Soca industry, as it reflects the popularity and impact of the song among the people.
Mical Teja has proven himself to be a rising star and a force to be reckoned with in the Soca arena. His song "DNA" has become an anthem for the nation and a testament to the power and beauty of the Carnival. Before you know it, we will be talking about new music releases as King Carnival begins to tease for another year. It was an awesome year for Soca and one that Mical Teja will look back on as the year he made history. Congratulations to the Roadmarch champion of Carnival 2024, Mical Teja!
