Newcastle and Gateshead

Since today is Notting Hill carnival day… I thought it would be good if we enlighten our “paler skinned “ friends with some proper carnival music to get them to dance… well.. what they consider dancing (don’t give them the disapproval look!)

So… you get 5 suggestions each.. and they can go look em up….

Arrow - long time! (Hot hot hot is soo overplayed!)

Soca boys - follow the leader

Sean Paul get busy

Chukka demus - bam bam

Shabba ranks - ting a ling

Throw in a few dances hall songs….. a couple of old school classics

Sweet love (the m beat version) … end it all with Gwen McRae - all this love I am giving or classic Diana Ross disco!!

Job done!!

I would imagine pale skinned people know plenty about proper carnival music.

I’m having a 90s weekend. Lots of simply red is getting my love at the moment. The stars album is just fabulous.

I’ve been pretty mainstream with these but these are some of my faves.

Clarks - Vybz Kartel

Gyal dem sugar- Beanie man

Whine and Kotch- J capri

West Indies- Koffee

Can’t satisfy her- I Wayne (this song is my problematic fave)

Honorary mentions:

Kotch- RDX

So Mi like it- Spice

I just got back home after a 2 hour drive from the west mids. I had the entire discography of Brand New on shuffle.
