POS, Trinidad (Sonique Solutions) – Riding high on the popularity of their monster
hit ‘Prescription’ former Chutney-Soca Monarch Ravi B and his band Karma have
certainly kicked off a performance-packed Carnival 2013 season in ripping form. After
delivering a scintillating showing at the International Groovy Soca Monarch semi-finals,
the energetic ensemble turned up the heat at Dr. Fuad Khan and friends all-inclusive “Hott
Gangnam Nights”.

Although this particular event offered a wide range of culinary delights and top-shelf beverages,
patrons could not help but put down their plates and glasses and head to the dance floor area as
soon as Karma hit the stage. The crowd delighted as the youthful band delivered several of its
beloved original Chutney-Soca favourites such as ‘Ah Drinka’and ‘Rum is Meh Lover’ as well
as the latest smashes ‘Prescription’ and ‘Friends With Benefits’(which is a collaboration between
Ravi and Jamaican Dancehall artiste Konshens).

Karma delivered a high-impact performance with no technical difficulties to an appreciative
audience. Highlights of the Karma set included Nisha B’s eye catching stage outfits and her
commanding delivery of her current hit ‘Wine Up Your Body’ which prompted several male
patrons to go onstage to dance for her approval. Also, young Karma heartthrob Gregory Ayuen
connected with all the ladies through his rousing renditions of C2K13’s biggest tunes.
Most notably, in a show of mutual respect Chutney-Soca Queen Drupatee made a guest
appearence on the Karma set and performed ‘Indian Gyal’ with Ravi singing Machel’s verses.

According to the band’s members, Karma’s schedule has kicked into high gear and they will be
appearing in several Carnival events over the next few weeks which include the annual Central
Bank All Inclusive, Hott 93’s Inferno Fete, Soca For Life, Gulf View’s All Inclusive, RAMA
and the Carnival Sunday favourite Mania.
