OnstageTv: Machel Montano quits Soca Monarch [Video]
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.

…One thing must be understood above all else; the deep connection between Soca-lovers, masqueraders, pan-people, and our Carnival, is unequivocally, true love.
The kind of bond secured in the knowledge that no matter how far one side may roam, she will always “Come Back” home.
This emotional tie with our beloved festival, is a relationship both Destra Garcia and Monk Monté have showcased in their music individually, and also particularly when they have work together.
Luckily for their fans, the King of the Road and the Queen of Bacchanal have once again combined to bring to life that intrinsic devotion, which unifies millions around the globe in song.
Sure to send spirits soaring in glee with its vivid rhythms, the track is produced by Stadic Studio Productions.
While Sagaboyz, Kevin “Stadic” Charles, Machel, and Destra worked jointly to soulfully describe this one of a kind bountiful relationship that could never end.
As the release illustrates, Carnival may only be here for two days, but with the inspiration she brings, the fidelity she inflames, and the ecstasy she blankets our islands with, it is easy to see why year after year, she eternally remains our one true love.

…Ask any masquerader and they will swiftly reveal that the approximately 12 months between Carnivals are the absolute hardest to endure. Beneath perfectly coiffed public faces, they live with an unrelenting build up of sharp tension, which stretches across tendons and joints, until that hallowed moment when for two liberating days they can finally “ERUPT”!
From the compelling opening call of the horn and tins of the Jab Molassies to the raging guitar riff and the heated brass line, this release is a powerful summons to burst onto the black carpet by Monk Monté.
Clear in its intention and written cunningly by Kernal Roberts and Machel Montano, the track has only one goal; to vigorously propel everyone into a festive state of mind.
Produced by Kernal, Jean-Marc Gittens, alongside Machel, this musical explosion was also co produced by Thygeson “Penn” Joseph and Irvin “Ace” Loctar of St. Lucia’s 758 Studio and St. Vincent’s Alex “Kubiyashi” Barnwell making it a volatile combination of Caribbean talent.
Be prepared to feel every internal emotion spew up and away with full force when this dome of melodious energy roars onto the airwaves.
Instantly, it will make you Erupt!
