Album Review: Machel Montano Double M

[Ref Rex Records / Xtatik Ltd]

The Jay-Z of Soca music Machel Montano gives no let up in his tradition of releasing an album every year. Double M gives an overwhelming offering 20 songs of pure dominance. Machel’s game plan is clear. Create one power and one groovy soca monster track catered to the vibe of each major international carnival season. Tapping into dancehall vibes with ‘Doh Fraid’, Euro-electronic productions of Fly So High and Represent not forgetting International Soca Monarch winning power houses ‘Pump Yuh Flag’ and ‘Mr Fete’ he has executed this with perfection.
