Looks like rum songs till we die

by

Af­ter hear­ing all those rum songs from so­ca artistes but more so chut­ney artistes over the years, I'm amazed that they seem to con­tin­ue along that path year af­ter year. Is it that our lo­cal "su­per­stars" are bank­rupt of ideas and new ma­te­r­i­al is hard to come by? We con­tin­ue to see dead­ly road ac­ci­dents be­cause of ex­ces­sive al­co­hol con­sump­tion. Young chil­dren are de­stroy­ing their fu­ture by drink­ing al­co­hol from as ear­ly as 11-12 years of age.

UWI stu­dents in­dulge in binge drink­ing. Fam­i­ly life is be­ing de­stroyed as a re­sult of al­co­holic par­ent/par­ents. Yet our lo­cal artistes con­tin­ue to glo­ri­fy al­co­hol, even sug­gest­ing that it en­hances male sex­u­al per­for­mance. And now our Gov­ern­ment sees it fit to of­fer the chut­ney so­ca monarch a $2 mil­lion first prize. What a slap in the face it was to see an­oth­er rum song cap­ture the chut­ney so­ca ti­tle.

I guess is stu­pid­ness till we die.
