Lil Bitts – Work

Lil’ Bitts is Making You WORK this Carnival!

Trinidad and Tobago, September 14th, 2015–After blazing her way back into Soca last year and straight onto the Groovy Soca Semi-Final stage, Shivonne “Lil’ Bitts” Churche is stepping boldly into Carnival 2016 with a powerful demand.

Directed towards the men of the season, Bitts commands them all to put in the “Work”!

Hit songwriter Jason “Shaft” Bishop wrote the lively ladies’ anthem with production being done by ever-popular De Red Boyz out of Barbados.

This can’t miss collaboration is just the first offering from Lil’ Bitts for the season, but with such a mighty start, it is clear she is out to conquer all, leaving every waistline trembling in her wake.

LUCY – SHOW OFF

LUCY is back with this Monstapiece production…..SHOW OFF

BREAKING NEWS: LUCY EMANCIPATES HERSELF FROM THE QUEEN OF BACCHANAL

Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. Oct 5, 2015 – After a successful Carnival debut in which her name was on the lips of every soca lover, Lucy has decided to go solo.
The “looser than loose” performer has announced her emancipation from Destra Garcia, the Queen of Bacchanal.
Lucy believes she has to strike while the iron is hot as she drops her first solo release “Show off”.
In what she denies is a veiled jab at the QoB, Lucy sings “yuh have all day bottom for nutten, yuh feel yuh come here for nutten, if yuh doh know what yuh have then lemme show you something.”
Fans of Lucy will see her perform the song in her video which she promises will be spicier than the Lucy video.
Contacted for a comment on this latest development, the Queen of Bacchanal said she supported Lucy’s evolution as an artist but the time has come for them to part ways.
“Here’s the real scoop. Lucy has become very ambitious and feels that she should steer her own career. She and I have two different personalities and responsibilities and have different realities when it comes to performing. She wasn’t happy with my interpretation and representation of Lucy and felt that I wasn’t Lewd or rude enough. I became skeptical about doing another track with her and refused to release her soon to be released debut single ‘Show off’ because our relationship was already starting to feel a bit of strain,” said the QoB.
“Things took a bad turn when she leaked the track for Crop Over without my permission and I had to incur some losses as I attempted to remove the song from the airwaves. Since then she has done over the song without me and emancipated herself from the #QOB brand. I do feel a bit hurt and disrespected by this random act of Disloyalty but nonetheless we’re still cool and I wish her all the best!”
Would Lucy make it on her own? Would “Show off” be a runaway success? To keep up with Lucy follow her on Instagram at @Callmelucy1 .

What makes a Party EPIC !

Fellow Party Warriors, I come in peace from the land of eternal feting. I am your host, going by many names but most notably known as Loaded Lust ™.

I’ve been travelling the world, checking out various party scenes both above and underground…..making my mental notes……drinking exotic mixtures of alcohol…….getting the occasional warning from the Police for having no behavior……..and now I have my sights set on beautiful Barbados.

Before I become notorious bout hay’, I wanna ask the question……..WHAT MAKES YOU LABEL A PARTY OR EVENT AS “EPIC!!!!!!!!”.

Is it the music alone?  Is it how the D.Js play…..is it the vibe from the people…..or maybe its simply the drink selections?

For me, it’s all about getting that elusive, exclusive, conducive  and memorable dance……..that tempah wine……that pulsating wuk-up!

I’m sure a lot of my fellow male species would agree either in whole or in part.

I go out, feeling all energized and fresher that a plant going through photosynthesis. Pull up to the event….most times the music already start (sometimes, its quiet and makes you wonder if ya in de right place)….some old classics blazing to warm up the masses…..some in English, some I have no idea…….

Step through the entrance doors and start to scope as I’m being scoped………grab a drink and start to pose as I assess the situation……….

There are the wild ones who love the spotlight…….the quiet ones who prefer a dark corner….the “stay by bar” drinkers…..and then we have the models. All types come out to gain something from an event that they spend their hard earned money on; different types but with one common goal…..to leave the place feeling satisfied.

So I want to know….what makes an event memorable for you?

What makes a fete make you want to live for the night on cloud 9?? (Borrowing a line from Lyrikal)

What makes you glad that you didn’t stay home and watch an episode of WWE wrestling???

 

Let me know. email me here  Loaded Lust 

Until next time……y’all be safe………Loaded Lust out the X-O like Don Demarco. Boom shaka-laka.
