A prominent feature of Caribbean culture is carnival, a seasonal time of celebration and soca competitions. This Carnival season, rising star, Shirlan George aka “Skinny Banton,” and his  incendiary hit “Soak It Good,” produced by MPS Studios, shines a spotlight of international interest on the Tri-State of Grenada, Carriacou and Petit Martinique.  More After The Jump…

Born in Trinidad and Tobago, Banton grew up in Carriacou, with his single mother. As a child he enjoyed competing in school talent shows. His school friends gave him the moniker, Skinny Banton because he reminded them of a much thinner version of Buju Banton. Some of his musical inspirations in reggae, include Lucky Dube, Bob Marley, Natural Black, Sizzla Kalonji, Junior Kelly and Nasio Fontane.

“I like to sing songs with a message or a storyline.”
