The 2014 chant for
Saint Lucia Carnival is here. Repeat after me “Rahhh” and again “Rahhh”. Delivered
by the King of Saint Lucia Soca, Stratosphere Muzic artiste Ricky T, Rahhh is
featured on the Dutch Productions/Stratosphere Muzic Mad People Riddim. Mixed
and mastered by Courtney “Curty” Louis, Rahhh is written by the award winning
songwriter and producer, Saveion Georges and Ricky Joseph. The Mad People
Riddim is produced by Courtney “Curty” Louis and Yannick Plante.
Make no bones about
it, this is a road song, “when we done with the road this year/it ah go mash up
beyond repair” that can also be transferred to the stage, “we have the people
amaze/we come to mash up the stage/we doh really care what nobody say/cuz this
year we come to misbehave.”
With lyrics designed
to give you a clear picture of what it’s like to revel in Saint Lucia Carnival,
Rahhh also rides a Riddim whose beat is an infusion of clashing instrumentals
designed to make everything tremble as directed here by Ricky T, “hold de truck
and tremble/show them you still stable/climb the traffic light up and down/and
show them how we does revel.”
The early release
therefore will facilitate learning the chant. Repeat after me one more time,
“Rahhh”.
