Carib Soca Monarch Update!

Deejays, officials of ANSA McAL and music critics are presently reviewing the entries submitted for this year’s Carib Soca Monarch that will see at least 12 person competing for $1.5 million if they make it to the finals.

More than 30 entries have been accepted but the list of the semi-finalists will be announced on Monday at the ANSA McAL headquarters, Beterverwagting, East Coast Demerara. Once these artistes are announced, they will move full steam ahead for the semi-finals of the competition which will be held at the Albion Community Centre Ground on Saturday, February 8.

The finals are set for the National Park on February 15 and will see 12 finalists stepping up their games.

Last year, the quarter finals was held at the MacKenzie Community Centre Ground while the semi-finals which was washed out by rain was held at the Albion Community Centre Ground and the grand final was held at the National Park arena before a massive crowd.

 There, Jumo “Rubber Waist” Primo retained his title while Kwasi Ace Edmondson with his tune “Over and over” took second spot and Adrian Dutchin came in third with his high energy song, “Jook”.

This year will not disappoint, with exciting music, thrilling performances and an explosion of fabulous lyrics as every year, the contestants try to out-perform each other.
