THE SOCA MUSIC VIDEO IS BACK!

Skinny Fabulous does it again.

        If 2013 was a great year for Gamal ‘ Skinny Fabulous’ Doyle, 2014 is going to be epic. After claiming the Soca Monarch and Road March crown in St. Vincent and the Grenadines for 2013, Skinny has started out 2014 with a bang. His writing and performing skills were put on show for ‘The Greatest Party on Earth’ Trinidad Carnival 2014.  After a stellar performance for the International Soca Monarch  and with the success of his hit ‘Behaving The Worst’, Skinny released the music video on Monday 10th March! The reaction could only be described in one word: CRAZY!


        The video has garnered over 10 thousand views in less than 24 hours and has been liked and shared hundreds of times on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook. Not since the days of Touch has a music video been anticipated like this and received such feedback in a short space of time.
        The video was shot in Trinidad and St. Vincent with the opening scene including the Lowmans Leeward Anglican School. The opening scenes of the video include the La Gracia Dance Company and the Commissioner of Police in SVG, Michael Charles. The video is riddled with Soca celebrities including  power couple Bunji Garlin and Fay Ann Lyons, 2014 Power Soca Monarch Machel Montano, Destra Garcia, Iwer George, and 2011 Project Runway winner Anya Ayoung Chee! With production by Alex ' Kubyashi ' Barnwell, this song now combined with video is poised to take Vincy Soca on a rampage across carnivals for 2014.

         Directed by Titan VCD and Kern Rose (who directed the Patrice Roberts/TallPree video for Mash It up), this video really brings out ‘the worst behaviour.’ With dance moves that are hypnotic, scenes of fences being ripped down and the proud representation of St. Vincent and the Grenadines (the flag, Skinny’s scarf and the Hairoun beer), ‘Behaving The Worst’ has brought the music video back to Soca especially in SVG and will hopefully revitalize the music scene in SVG. Let’s see what Vincy Mas 2014 will bring but one thing we gotta say, Skinny Fabulous has done it again!

    What do you believe is the number one thing that musicians are doing to ruin their chances at succeeding in the music industry? the most common reason why musicians never succeed in this business is they have a FEAR based mindset.

    Country Music, in the form that we know it, has been going strong for over three hundred years in the Southern part of North America. It was not until the 1920s that it started to gain traction though.
