Always looking to do things a little different. Its an old idea but brought back with a little 2010 flair.

The motivation is really simple. Its to ring out the ole and ring in the new. Lol yeah.

So after a quick chat with fashion designer in the making Kerin Scott we decided to move forward with an interesting little concept to add to style to the night.

In the photo you can see the project is underway.

Why change my style?
I am not known as any fashion guru or anything but as I embark on 2010 with a strong focus on online marketing. I appreciate the need to add that fashion designer mentality into the things that I do.

When your 4 year old cousin is crazy about customizing everything. It is easy to see how an entire generation will be more driven by style and personalization.

This 2010 I am getting started right before I find mysf the old man on the block!

As a new day begins and the sun creeps into this darkened world the moon stands still.
The nocturnal among us look to hit the sack,
While those on the day shift rise.

In this moment of balance there is a calm
a peace that we can all claim as our own.

Kings and Queens wake and sleep in perfect harmony.

Hey,

Check out my special package in association with the Palms Resort in Barbados. If you are interested just give me a shout!

Take a break from the hustle and bustle and enjoy a weekend at the Palms Resort. Attend to one of the bigger events on the Barbados Event Calendar in VIP Style  -The Hennessy Artistry Show Featuring Jah Cure, Tarrus Riley and Duane Stephenson!

I had the pleasure of attending FAS Entertainment's press conference for their annual December show. I thought it was going to be the usual - announce the headline acts on the card officially to media and other details, but I got a bit more than I bargained for. Alrite so let me tell you.

The event this year will be the first time ever that Hennessy will be title sponsoring a major event in Barbados. The motivation for this move, was described by the CEO of Stokes and Bynoe as celebration of the whopping 70 years that Stokes and Bynoe has been distributing Hennessy in Barbados. I am sure it does help that Barbados is the biggest consumer of Hennessy per capita in the Caribbean! 


To add to this is the fact that this event will be included into the Hennessy Artistry Series of International concerts. These concerts have featured acts like Queen Latifah, Kanye West, LL Cool J and many mor artistes from around the globe. The last Hennessy Artistry concert was held on Oct 6 in Hanoi, Vietnam which featured artistes from Britain, Australia and the United States. You can find out more about it at www.hennessyartistry.com. After a quick peak at the website you will understand just how much a big these concerts are, and Hennessy plans to continue to build on this concert each year. 


Come December 6 Barbados will the latest venue for Hennessy Artistry and the second island in the Caribbean to host this concert series after Trinidad. 


What is Hennessy Artistry ?
The concept behind Hennessy Artistry is that true greatness in any art form is acheived when influences, cultures, ideas, style and are blended or mixed.


This art of mixing applies to all forms, including the blending Hennessy's eaux de vie (agua de via) to produce the world's leading cognac brand.


The Show
The show will take place on Dec 6th at the National Stadium and feature Jah Cure, Ne-Yo, Tarrus Riley and Duane Stephenson supported by Bajan Artiste - Buggy Fullyloaded, Daniel, Hotta Flames and Ras Ali.
The doors will be open from 7 pm and the show will kick off by 9 pm. 


Tickets
FAS Entertainment says that this is going to be a recession friendly event and they won't raise their ticket prices beyond what Bajans would have paid to see Jah Cure 3 years ago.
General admission  -  early bird $60  it will move up from there in increments of $10 each time.
VIP admission - $160 early bird and $200 regular price - this is the first time there is early bird on a VIP section.
VIP will cater for about about 2000 persons and primarily include

• Hennessy congac
• Belvedere  Vodka
• Finger food

Al Gilkes, director of FAS Entertainment believes that the concert will do very well. He explained that Jah Cure by himself 3 years ago attracted about 12 000 fans. The expectation is that this show will attract the same or even more with this special recession pricing.

All bars will be premium i.e. only premium products will be on sale! We are talking about possibly no rum or beer at the event. It is promised though that there will be a premium substitute for rum and beer for similar cost. I not complaining about that!
Hennessy says to this point more surprises next year! More surprises next year.

I just attended Hal Linton's listening party. He is the only male act signed to a major label taking the time to let the bajans hear his new album before the rest of the world.
Hal delivered a a very energetic performance walking in and out of the crowd. I had my moments of enjoyment in between talking to the patrons and conducting interviews.
It was nice to see Hal invite the heads of the the local organizations who were instrumental in facilating his major label deal on stage and give them a token of his appreciation. Barbados Tourism Authority and Invest Barbados were among those who received their gifts from Hal.
The highlight was when Hal called local radio announcer Gaynelle on stage and they freestyled in song much to the amusement of the crowd.
In his interview Hal expressed his desire to be a part of the development of the Barbados music industry.
All in all I am sure a great time was had by all.

Last Sunday I had the pleasure of attending iNDRANi's 2nd music showcase. I had a good time at her first showcase and I was looking forward to see her add more of her personality and up the production level in this second showcase. Truly showcase her talents. She promised she would so I was looking forward it.

Walking into the Bayleys Plantation, home to world music singer and songwriter Eddy Grant I was already in awe. The place was huge! Added to that moment I learned that this plantation was home to slave, Bussa. Bussa for those of you who don't know,  he was a slave who led the major slave revolt in Barbados and his statue is not one of the major landmarks in Barbados. Yeah, so, so far so good.

After walking in and seeing the stage illuminated with the bright spotlights and quite a few seats on the stage for the backing musicians, I know that iNDRANi was going to deliver on her promise. At the last showcase there was just 1 backing musician so production level raised.  I was ready to see what iNDRANi had to offer. I would be honest, I was a bit reserved with my anticipation as I saw the last showcase and i heard some of the songs before ... but iNDRANi out did herself by a mile.


Backed by a small grouping of musicians and performers

• Terry 'Mexican' Arthur (steel pan, drum machine)
• Victor Linton (Guitar)
• Mike Sealy (Guitar)
• Rena Pilgrim (Vocals)
• Rochelle Griffith (Vocals)
• Ezra Hinds (Keyboard)
• Adrian Green (Spoken Word Artist)
• Maxwell & Ifentola (Jakuta Drummers)
• the Children 
• Jackie Estwick (dancer)
• Special J Designs - (wardrobe.)

iNDRANi performed about 14 tracks with a 20 minute intermission in between. The crowd enjoyed every moment of it, by the time the second half rolled around iNDRANi had the audience eating out of her palms. Now performing with a group that was now looking like her official backing band . iNDRANi released herself for the crowd to enjoy from her wonderful vocal ability in her performance to her comedy during the breaks between her songs. iNDRANi' ability to take on/imitate different personalities and accents was a big hit with the crowd who were bursting up in laughter. It was no surprise that everyone stayed to the end of the show and they were all very aggressive in requesting an encore from their star of the moment!
iNDRANi stepped back on stage to deliver the 2 crowd favourites, "WANNA BE (THAT THING)" & "I KNOW". She went a step further in inviting "her band" to each freestyle and add to the vibe of the moment. Rena and Rochelle her backign vocalist and also her 2 vocal students were both at shy first but when the light hit them they shone and showed that they too had great vocal ability wooing the crowd.
iNDRANi went off herself for a moment freestyling and writing some new lines to her songs much to pleasure of this crowd.
After the show iNDRANi was mauled by her audience, just like an international artiste everyone wanting to personally thank her for a great evening. Children were also included.

I must also comment on one of the song iNDRANi performed, I really enjoyed "THE DREAMER" which featured Spoken Word Artist, Adrian Green. I loved that.

Let me take this time out to thank  JEFF KINCH for hosting the show and EDDY & ANNE GRANT for allow it to be at their home.

When I interviewed iNDRANi after she urged other Caribbean Artistes to create their own showcases where they could share their talents with friends and family and persons who appreciate their music. She also encouraged artistes not to wait until things happened for them and let other decide their destiny. Get up and make things happen.

My official take - the only thing missing where more bright lights and more people which is only a matter of time.
