We've lost a gem of soca music, Ricardo Drue, who left us all too soon at the age of 38. His untimely demise has sent ripples through the Caribbean music industry.  We pay our respects to his family with a tribute and touched some of our favourites in his catalog. We also take the opportunity to send condolences to the family of Marlene Mc Donald. Machel is not performing for carnival 2024 as he is focused on completing his Masters Thesis and like people vex! We revisit one of the more controversial Shorty songs from the last episode and take in Iwer's response. Is it true that Hasely Crawford can't get into the Hasely Crawford Stadium? We end this episode with a celebration of the career of the great Kelwyn Hutcheon as we switch to Christmas mode. Enjoy!!
