Machel Montano - 2008 Awards

 
“Carnival celebrations around the world always draw a diverse crowd, from people who are connoisseurs of Caribbean music and culture to those who are curious about it. So it’s always important to go out and represent our sounds to the masses, whenever the opportunity arises.”



With his explosive brand of Caribbean sounds and his high demand at every major carnival celebration worldwide, there’s no denying Machel Montano is indeed the King of Soca, and more so, the King of Carnival.
