TANTIE TALK:
Tell mih de ole gyul suffering from a lil paranoia and dementia in
she ole age... because what Tantie want to know is how come after
yuh pays yuh money fuh yuh ticket and yuh buy up yuh dan-dan and
ting fuh de all-inclusive fete and dem, is like after yuh gorne to
de fus one yuh only hearing ah tape recording in de nex ones. Is de
SAME bands coming on stage in de SAME order, 'performing' de exact
SAME sequence ah songs week after week... AND if yuh make de mistake
ah going to ah small fete during de week, guess what?!!
Ah know dey does talk about soca mafia when it come to song playing
on de radio, but it look like dem is small fry compared to what going
on in de fetes and dem. It bound-to-mus be dat is one man controlling
de show. Dis kinda ting doh happen by chance, 'cause eef luck and
chance was like dat, Tantie wudda done lick-up de Lotto six time
arreddy
... wid a few cashpot throw in on de side. I doh understand why it is
we does do dis ting... let people get away wid de comess until finally,
like de emperor and he clothes, some lil voice does speak out and den
all hell does break loose.
Is what ah go say? In de politics too, we like it so, we free.... ENT?
