    Now this is what you call an international Soca video. To all you who don't like it, it's because you have a one set mind. You want all soca to sound the same way and all soca videos to look the same way. We live in a world of change!! If you haven't notice too, Machel have the best soca videos ever. He puts time and creativity into his craft.

      Apparently u don't know that a song has more value if the video bears semblance to the song because things must connect. Next you'll say the Differentology video was boss.

      So one out of the many videos he decides to have an alternate concept with High Production Value and that makes it wrong? Looking at the recent success of Bunji which was a result of the past 10 years of treating Soca Music differently, this shouldn't be an issue, MM has done more and understands how to market the 'culture' lets see those other videos get played on MTV.

    • @lauhgwhenfunny

      this video has no relation what so ever to the song .... why would you shoot a music video which is supposed to be in relation to carnival in a desert ? a desert represents death,and famine, carnival on the other hand has to do with joy and color and excitement please tell me how those 2 things relate to each other ? now don't get me wrong the song is good i personally think the video is bogus.

      soo why must it be obvious, storytelling has various methods, u can be abstract. literal, but to me i see it works he starts off in a very lonely place (desert) but he then reaches a oasis - a place of rejuvenation where its shown in a carnival type setting and there he comes alive. it doesnt have to be jump up blue devils jouvert. this video is packaged very well and will do a great job in making the wider community hear soca music, the dancer by themselves are well known n will bring a great following to the music. its good to break the norm sometimes is all am saying once the end result is achieved making ppl kno about soca music.

    @romainno1 10 лет назад +198

    The vid is good the concept good. He's in the middle of nowhere and when he should be stressing he's just moving along until he finds an oasis, somewhere to rest and be refreshed. Even if the conditions are bad he still moving on living his life experiencing new things. Good for u Machel

    The talent of these amazingly skilled dancers became apparent only after watching this. I LOVE it. Each time I watch it I see something new that adds to this production. Fantastic editing!
