'Moment' of truth
You must be feeling it by now!! Even though the action is taking place thousands of miles away, the vibe's high here at home! Wayne Marshall in the Esco-produced track, The Moment, captures the spirit in a peppy, patriotic tune.
"We have been waiting so long for this moment/Now it's here for the world to see/All the power we have as a nation and the will that we have to achieve/Ah de food weh we eat/De yam, de greens, cocoa, dasheen/Mek we run wid de speed of a super machine." Soun' it!

Bite back
On a serious note now, these mosquitoes getting 'outta-vadah' (out of order), man. They certainly don't go on vacation during the summer months. Just as you close your eyes, they come in for the kill - not to mention that pull-your-hair-out humming in your ear. Unbearable! Zap them with 'No Mosquito' candles or body sprays. That should teach 'em!
