Sharnz and Arkayo welcome guest Jhelisa for a thought-provoking discussion about the over-sexualization of Soca and how modern technology is changing carnival culture.

• Carnival season updates: St. Lucia Carnival coming up, Vincy Mas results announced with Problem Child taking first place
• Sharnz will be attending both St. Lucia Carnival and Crop Over in Barbados
• Both hosts will be at Antilliaanse Feesten in August
• Song of the month: "Whale Fu See" by OG Park and Rom Lod from Vincy
• Discussion on the cultural misunderstanding of wining through Western eyes
• Evolution of carnival costumes becoming increasingly revealing over time
• How constant recording and cameras at events prevent people from truly "freeing up"
• Safety concerns for women at events and the importance of consent regardless of clothing
• New trend of phone-free events like "Do Not Disturb" and "Blackout Soca" in London
• The importance of educating newcomers about the history and culture behind carnival

Check out Blackout Soca on September 13th in London – a phone-free event where you can truly free up without worrying about cameras.
