You need to be aware of what others are doing, applaud their efforts, acknowledge their successes, and encourage them in their pursuits. When we all help one another, everybody wins. This is the code in which i live by, and a solution to rebuilding our community. In this issue, I would like to shine the light on a Montrealer who I consider a Soca Pioneer Daddy Ghost aka Steve Victory. Some may argue and say that Daddy Ghost didn't start soca in Montreal, which is so true. In this instant a Soca Pioneer is an artist who took soca to another level by raising the bar. Daddy Ghost is a Montreal multi Soca Monarch champion who introduce creative phrasing, and prolific lyrics to our soca and also represent us when travelling Canada.
Amongst Daddy Ghost diverse accomplishments, this year he was chosen to performing in New York for the second annual 'Vincy Soca Extravaganza'which is considered an Honor. This exclusive event takes place once a year on Labour day weekend which is New York Carnival. 'Vincy Soca Extravaganza' gain it's popularity not only for being the biggest Vincy fete with the most popular Vincy artist but also the only fete where artist are contracted to only perform for.
This year 'Vincy Soca Extravaganza 2.0' is held Sept 4th 2010, at Aviator Indoor Ballroom 3159 Flatbush Ave Brooklyn, NY. Daddy Ghost was chosen to perform in the midst of the best Vincy artist such as Skinny Fabulous, Maddzart, Scorcher, Winston Soso, Becket, Problem Child and many more.
Daddy Ghost alongside his backup singers Lady Star (Stephany Ettienne) and ZZE (Garfield Horgan) says that they are more than ready to mash up Ney York city and show them what Montreal soca is all about. EMAIL
