Sometimes winning isn't everything! Winning makes you feel good and may even have a monetary reward and a title attached to it, but being the people's champion is even sweeter! He is the man who delivered Carnival Tabanca, something many of you reading this are experiencing right now. "Carry It" may have placed second for the Road March competition, but what is even better is the fact that it has become an anthem that will continue with fans for the rest of the year! Today we feature Bunji performing his hit song at PREStige Fete to reminisce a little as you get ready for Carnival Lagniappe.
Bunji had the crowd going, and this was in the early days of the fête season. He not only delivered a stellar performance; he had the revelers in a frenzy. We express our gratitude to Trini Jungle Juice for creating this video, which perfectly captures the Viking of Soca at his peak.
The carnival is over, but the memories linger. We are confident that placing second to Machel Montano will not deter Bunji, and we do hope that he continues to compete regardless of the circumstances and problems with those in charge of and holders of 'fair play' to keep competitions legitimate.
As you continue to celebrate Bunji's successes, and if you did not see the performance, we hope that you can share in the magic and relive the moment as Bunji continues to "Carry It" for all his fans. We do believe that this song will be heard at various Caribbean Carnivals for the rest of the year and that it has a special place in the hearts of Soca music lovers all over the world. As Bunji continues to inspire and uplift through his music, we encourage everyone to embrace the joy and energy that his performances bring. Together, let's keep the spirit of celebration alive and support our local artists as they shine on both national and international stages.
