Black actors have done it again!

The voluptuous, vivacious songstress Jennifer Hudson and the talented Forest Whitaker snagged the best supporting actress and best actor Oscars respectively last Sunday at the Academy Awards. Longtime comedian, Eddie Murphy lost what would have been his first Oscar (for best supporting actor) to Alan Arkin of "Little Miss Sunshine". Hudson, a veritable newby to the acting world and a American Idol reject beat out Oscar favorite Cate Blanchett for "Notes on a Scandal" and the cute "Little Miss Sunshine herself," Abigail Breslin. Hudson, along with Beyonce and the third of their trio, co-star Anika Noni Rose, gave an effortlessly perfect performance of three songs from "Dreamgirls" that were nominated for best Original Song, but lost. Forest Whitaker, who was able to grab his golden man for best actor, unlike at the Golden Globes, was prepared with a written speech. Whitaker's speech ended a memorable evening with these perfect words, "It's possible." You are right, “with black all things are possible”.

When you hear the first few lines from his celebrated single “Come Around” you start wondering: which Jamaican is that? How come I never heard him before? He is a convincing reggae artiste, both in content and sound, so when the speakers are blaring and you hear, “Finally the herbs come around, the high grade weh mi a look fa mi get it by the pound” you immediately think, ‘I like this song.’
 
Machel Montano is having the best year ever! PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 04 March 2007
Trinidad Carnival has come to an end and it was probably the best start Machel Montano could have for his 25th anniversary in the business. Machel copped the Road March title last week leaving his competitors far behind. The song that is played the most among the various judging points on the road wins the coveted Road March title, and it was no surprise by Carnival Monday who would win. “Jumbie,” had an astonishing 388 plays, versus Shurwayne Winchester’s, “Open De Gate,” at a mere 34 plays. The rhythm and pan in, “Jumbie,” was an ideal tune for the road. The song didn’t need a roadmix to compliment the song for the road. Over the last four years or so, DJ’s looked forward to the roadmixes for songs, but this was one year where many wondered what could possibly be done to make the song better. In one word, “nothing.”
