Road Movies: Eight Soca Videos For Trinidad Carnival

Words by Kimberly Burgess—

Machel Fog video

If you’re ready for Carnival, but can’t revel in the bacchanal of Trinidad & Tobago’s second-to none annual street party (the best street party in the world, in our opinion) today and tomorrow, these videos are sure to make you feel as if you touched di road! Watch some of the best (and worst) Trini soca clips released during the run-up to this week’s Carnival, from Machel Montano, the Roy Cape All-Stars & Blaxx and more. (And, for even more soca madness, download LargeUp’s Fog Up D Place mixtape from Major Lazer’s Jillionaire).

Found Footage: Hitler Finds Out About Machel Montano’s Clean Sweep

Words by Jesse Serwer—

By now you’ve probably seen at least a few YouTube videos of Hitler losing his shit for various improbable reasons. The footage is from the climactic scene in a German movie called Downfall and, no matter what the subtitles tell us Der Fuhrer is freaking out over, the results are usually pretty funny. The trend has finally reached the Caribbean. That’s right, Der Fuhrer found out about Machel Montano’s clean sweep at Soca Monarch/TnT Carnival this year, and he’s none too pleased. But Kerwin DuBois “make ah bess song,” an incredulous Hitler says. Unable to digest the news, he jokes, “I even hear he coming for Chutney next year too!” before unleashing a torrent of expletives covering everything from last year’s curfew to the price of gyros. Tip of the hat to Jillionaire for spotting this one.

Fashion Fridays: Cutlass and Cane “Bacchanalist” Tees

Words by Jesse Serwer—

Kerwin DuBois’ “Bacchanalist” has definitely been my tune this carnival season, and, it seems, for a lot of other folks, too. Despite concerns whether the producer-turned-artist (previously DuBois was best known for producing last year’s Groovy Soca-winning “Wotless” by Kes the Band) could translate the song’s energy into a captivating stage performance, he did just that, finishing second to Machel Montano and “Mr. Fete” in the Groovy Soca competition. In fact, some people think he should have won the category.
