Major Lazer and Kubiyashi teamed up to do this track, performed by the legendary Bunji Garlin.  The song titled "It's a Carnival" is self explanatory, that when these legends in the game come together its nothing but good times, and vibes - literally a carnival.

Machel Montano - On My Way

Stripped bare, unburdened by assumptions, and laid before the world to see, Monk Monté unveils a release and accompanying video, that shares the spiritual journey he has taken from his first breath of life to this very moment in time. The story follows the evolution from a young boy starting in the Pyramids of Mother Africa, making his way full circle back to the Trinity Hills of his current home in Trinidad & Tobago, paying respect to all the magical steps along the way.

The evolution of self is personified through the characters in the video, two of which are played by Machel's very own son and father.

The moving number, “On My Way”, is a soulful tale and tribute to the land and musical culture, Machel was predestined to arise from and grow within.

Powerful lyrics intertwined with riveting drums and emotional visuals, paint a poignant picture of heritage alongside an innate connection to the birthplace of Soca.

Springing from this music, produced by Starblu and co-written by Tishon Singh & Machel Montano, is that intangible warmth, and effervescent joy these islands are well known for.

This is a track which will touch hearts and lead souls to sing in euphoric frenzy, as they celebrate the blessing of just being alive right here and right now.

The video and song was launched on CNC3, one of Trinidad & Tobago's premier national broadcasters.

LYRICS
Verse 1
Spent 2 hours on my facebook
All up on your page
Your pics I can’t erase,
Smile stuck in my memory,
You’d think we were together
Cuz the way I feel for you
It seems we had some years of history,

Verse 2
I’ve never been that type of guy
Who gets, all hyped up over butterflies
Cuz they may have no wings,
But this is special cuz I’ve fallen hard,
I can’t get up, and I’m sure that

Chorus
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
You just don’t understand
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, Don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
You just don’t understand, the way I feel

You just don’t understand x2

Verse 3
It hurts to be in love
then told you’re not in love
And know it’s not enough to prove to you I’m what you need
This should be easy but it’s hard for me
Cuz I’m still hung up on this thing that’s not meant to be

Verse 4
Some people say that love is just a game
and I’m willing to play
for you but you to seem to need
this type of game in your life no more,
so now I’m sure...

Chorus
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
You just don’t understand
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, Don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
Cause you don’t understand the way I feel

Bridge
When you’re with me stop pretending
We have something never-ending
Maybe then, you’ll understand
How to love...

Chorus x2
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
You just don’t understand
You don’t understand, the way I feel,
About you girl, Don’t understand,
The way I feel, about you girl
Cause you don’t understand the way I feel

You just don’t understand x2
Cause you don’t understand the way I feel

LYRICS
Verse 1
I heard our song on the radio today
And it reminded me how much I want to say
That there could be no other special day
For me to show to you my love in this way

Pre-Chorus
I’ve never felt this way before
I’d never ask for anymore
I’m not feeling insecure
And right now I know I’m sure
That this is God’s display

Chorus
So this day, I say, I love you for eternity
But eternity is not enough for me to say
How much, I love you so much
I can’t wait for eternity
So I proudly say that I love you this day

Verse 2
So today I take your hand
And on my knee I make this stand
Now and forever more, forever sure I’ll be your man
I’m committed to this love (This Love)
that I never dreamed of (Dreamed of)
And I don’t need nobody else,
You’re more than enough.

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Bridge
This day I will assure you
This love I will endure
This day I will ensure
This vow grows stronger
Than you’ll ever know so

Chorus x2

This Day

This Jamaican born and raised singer/songwriter is a product of Mona Prep Choir, Campion College Choir, and the University Singers, all of Kingston, Jamaica.  Mario Evon is another bright upcoming Jamaican artiste adding his flavour to the music industry. Unassuming, but energetic, he produces a mix of many genres including R&B, jazz, reggae, dancehall, and combines them to form a unique style. Singing from about the age of seven (7), Mario has also done his fair share of performing in Jamaican theatre, scoring the understudy for ‘Timon’ in “The Lion King”, and the lead for ‘Daniel’ in “Once on This Island”. Prior to being accepted to Berklee College of Music, Mario had good experience singing backup vocals for many established, as well as upcoming artistes, including Benjy Myaz, Camar (pka Flava Unit), the Rocky 5 band, Alaine and Cezar.  Also prior to attending Berklee, Mario put working as a Medical Doctor on hold to pursue this dream of being a recording artiste.

Now at Berklee College of Music he is pursuing a Bachelor of Music Degree, double-majoring in Songwriting and Music Business/Management.  But it doesn’t stop there.  Since being at Berklee Mario has been intensely involved in the community, singing with Bostonian reggae band ‘Hot Like Fire’, and singing background vocals for Berklee’s Singers Showcase and other student bands.  Mario recently was selected to do lead vocals in Berklee’s Singers Night, and also just became a DJ on the Berklee Internet Radio Network (BIRN), with his new Caribbean culture show called ‘Caribbean Connection’.  Mario has all hopes of becoming one of the future 'movers and shakers' in the Jamaican, as well as the international music scene.
