When I wrote the song, I thought about the past two years and how we did not have a Crop Over and it had me in my feelings – no lie. So, the song speaks about how Crop Over left all of us and now it is back without any apology, but we shall love Crop Over the same,” she said. Gibson and Lee who are both social media strategists hosted the event to enhance the artiste’s brand and connect people with her music. “The event was a success! We had a fantastic turn out with well-known DJs, local artistes and supporters of soca music. We are excited to highlight great brands and businesses through social media marketing and events so stay tuned,” they said.
