All Angles on FLAVA: Before, During, and After the Fête

By Published February 28, 2026

This post first appeared on Kaiso Dial, where Caribbean music meets wit, rhythm, and real talk. Island Vybe Radio spins the tunes—we decode the culture.

 
The full flavor of Trinidad bursts onto the road tonight, as Soca and Chutney Soca drive the magic of Carnival 2026 straight home. One more jump, one more wave—the spirit of the island is alive and blazing.
 
The videographer’s presentation captured it all—pre‑party energy, the heart of the fête, and the post‑party vibes as FLAVA unfolded tonight. The show is set to begin at 8:00 p.m. Trinidad time, which is 7:00 p.m. for viewers in the USA.
 
The featured artists tonight are as follows:
  • Karma the Band
  • Nailah Blackman
  • Terri Lyons
  • Rasika
  • Lil Bits
  • Tempa
  • Nisha B
  • Surprise Guests are possible
Let us spread awareness of the culture of the Caribbean diaspora.
We do this to promote Caribbean culture, musicians, and music producers. We are able to honor and promote the rich sounds and stories of the Caribbean thanks to your support. Together, we can ensure that this rich cultural legacy reaches a wider audience and fosters creativity and connections. While it is important to always purchase music, you should avoid sharing promotional music because doing so denies essential revenue to songwriters, producers, and artists. You can find all of our posts online on social media platforms like FacebookYouTubeInstagramSpotify, and SoundCloud. We recommend that you explore your favorite content on FeedSpot/RSS FeedThreadsBluesky, and Twitter/X, including email subscriptions. Thank you in advance.
