Destra wants ‘BVI Passport’
But what would be remembered the most is the Trinidadian Soca Queen publicly requesting a “BVI passport” while delivering her usually energising performance.
According to Destra, she feels more at home and very well loved when she is in Tortola than in her own homeland, Trinidad. For this reason, she remarked that it would be one of her greatest desires to become a "native."
“I love you guys. I wish that somebody could give me a BVI passport,” she joked.
Destra has been a permanent figure in the annual festival line-up for some time now and was the headline act for the night.
Long time crowd favorites such as Its carnival, Just a little bit, and new songs like Lucy, among others, saw the crowd in a party mood for over two hours of her performance.
She also revealed that she intends on releasing a new album with the international R&B artist, Drake, soon.
Kassav
In their usual hyped-up stage presence, the French band –Kassav opened the feting from 1:00 A.M. and closed sometime after 2:00A.M., however, not before making patrons drip with sweat!
Oh Madiana, Zouk La Se Sel Medikaman No Ni, Siwo, to name a few were real crowd favourites, sang by the famed Joycelyne Beroard and Jean Philippe Marthely in the lead. Persons from the creole speaking Caribbean islands of Dominica, Haiti and St Lucia were seen dancing to the rhythms without a care in the world.
The occasional shower scattered the crowd, but just for a while.
VIBE Band and B’More also provided entertainment.
