Peter Ram carving his niche with Ragga Soca

He started out as a reggae artiste. He then switched gears to calypso music and later on wrote songs for a number of Caribbean artistes including Alison Hinds. Today he is one of soca music’s brightest stars.

Peter Ram describes his music as ragga soca. “I started out back home in Barbados doing reggae music. I grew up listening to people like King Yellow Man and Toyan. I then switched over to calypso and social commentary,” Peter Ram said in an interview on the set of his music video Tight.

Airfarewatchdog.com: Top Tips For Flying With Kids

Airfarewatchdog.comhas asked its travelers on tips of how to keep kids happy on long flights. Below are the top 15 that Airfarewatchdog.com has posted.

1. Have a discussion on expected behavior prior to the trip, as well as a little refresher before boarding.

2. A bag stuffed with essential treats. In our case, that would be Teddy Grahams.

3. Pack plenty of books, stickers, paper, crayons, magazines, and anything else that can be read, or incorporated into an easy mess-free craft project. Remember, obviously, no scissors.

4. Fresh out of craft ideas? Here’s an easy one! Bring a fine point Sharpie marker and allow your children to - just this once - add moustaches to all the faces in the in-flight magazine. Or blackened teeth. Or both! Hey, go wild (quietly, and to yourself)!

Superb ?Moment? with Beres

Superb ‘Moment’ with Beres

There were handclaps as a countdown from 10 seconds started on the large screens above the stage on Sunday night at the National Indoor Sports Centre (NISC) and a huge cheer as it was complete for Beres Hammond’s ‘A Moment In Time’ to begin.

There would be a wait for Hammond, though, the first cheers going up for a Whitney Houston style ‘exhalation’ from Dean Fraser and the individual performers entering through one section of the audience seated closest to the stage.
