Ragga born Ian Joseph, a native of Trinidad & Tobago, came to New York in 1984 . He first experienced the ambiance of show business at age 7 while performing in school concerts and local competitions, and by age 12, he was performing with some of the top Soca acts in Trinidad & Tobago. At that time his mother, who was a member of the band Shorty and the Brass Circle, one of the best bands in Trinidad, realized his extraordinary talent. So she packed their bags, and headed for New York. Once settled, Ian started attending his mothers recording sessions and would just naturally start singing along. Soon the leader of the band asked him to join in, and the rest is history. Ever since, Ragga has been on stage here in the United States with many different bands, and have performed with some of the top Caribbean band acts in the [U.S.A]; such as Shaggy, Rupee, Maxi Priest, David Rudder and many more. He also was one of the winners of the Caribbean amateur night at the Apollo theater. His powerful, captivating voice and magnetic stage presence made him one of the many artists that you could always enjoy. In 2004, he got together with Otis Music and wrote the number one hit song called Right Up In Dey. It became the top song at Miami Carnival that year.then followed up with miss lady In 2006,which he won best new Groovy Artist of the year at the International Soca Music Awards.
An avid writer and arranger of his own material, Raggas major goal is to get his songs, a cartel of Soca mixed with R&B, and Reggae heard by the music industry and especially the American audiences so they can feel what we in the Caribbean feel. This extremely talented gentleman is destined to become a major part of todays music scene as he always says Tell dem Ragga say so!

Rikki Jai is ah trinidadian chutney-soca artiste born Samraj Jaimungal in Friendship Village, San Fernando.
The prince of soca chutney, his highness Rikki Jai. Samraj "Rikki" Jai is the most successful crossover entertainer in the world. He has won the Carib Soca Chutney Monarch competition too many times to count, and has been the first Indian performer to make his mark on the soca charts with many different hit tunes. Most recently, he's known for his super hit throughout the soca and chutney universe for his song, Mor Tor. Mor Tor was almost a road march contender for the 2004 carnival season and was so popular that superstar Machel Montano also teamed up with his highness to remix the song.
Rikki Jai is also known for his past super chart topers like Scorpion, Dulahin, de River Lime and the song he broke into the scene with, Sumintra. Rikki Jai is unlike all other artists as he was the first to brake down the barrier, and allow space for 'Indian" soca entertainers to be recognized on the same stage as all the other top artists, although to this day no one has been able to reach the level at which Rikki has achieved success. None the less, he's still and always will be the true Prince of Soca Chutney music.

INDOSAF MELOBUGZ - DOH LIE ON NADIA .
Catch meh lovah -reply 3
.LOL.. horn fuh horn ... ENJOY :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Melobugz Music Machine is consider as one of the most requested and best performing bands in the chutney-soca arena. With over 35 years of experience, going from strength to strength Melobugz is by all means the powerhouse in Chutney/Indian film music industry.
To date Melobugz has also achieved many mega crossover collaborations which have taken the band into the soca industry as well. Some of the artists we have done so with are: Machel Montano, Fayan Lyons, Ziggy Rankin, King David, Blaxx and Zoelah. Because of the success of our recordings the band has toured North America, Holland, the Caribbean and some parts of South America. Since the year 2000 Melobugz has been producing hit albums year after year consecutively.
This Dynamic and versatile Band has been in existence since 1972 and has come along way with its popularity. Within the past Thirty five (35) Years the band went through many changes. Some members migrated whilst some branched off into other bands. Except for one member Steve Mahato, who stayed through thick and thin with this orchestra. He is not only the foundation member but he is also the proud Father of the Leader of Melobugz, Rishi Mahato. Both father and son play the keyboards.
The members of the band are:
Rishi Mahato - Band Leader & Lead Keyboardist
Steve Mahato - Keyboardist
Selwyn Buckmire - Drummer
Felix Lezama - Bass man
Ringo Maharaj - Guitarist
Ras Nancoo - Vocalist
Rishi Ramkissoon - Vocalist
Brent Evelyn - Vocalist
Rooplal G. - Vocalist
Navita Mahato - Vocalist
Artie Butkoon - Vocalist
Rishi Mahato has made a revolutionary change with this band since 1998 until presently. His youthful talent and musical abilities carried the band to its climaxing stages. He created a new and dynamic sensation with his style of music, which aroused the youths and the elders, not just locally in Trinidad & Tobago but internationally as well.
The other musicians are Felix Lezama, the Bass Guitarist. Felix always has a very cute and radiant smile on stage. He's quite an entertainer, he's also a singer. The drummer is Selwyn Buckmire also known as "Bucky". He is self taught and played for a lot of known bands like Xtatic, Secong Imij and Square One before he joined Melobugz. He's very versatile and has made a name for himself internationally as well. On the guitar we have Ringo Maharaj. This gentleman is extremely talented and humble about it. He is often heard and seldom seen, (except on stage).
One of the lead singers is Ras Nancoo Singh who needs no introduction to the Indian film market. Ras is a living legend and does imitation of Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi and other well known playback singers. He's a very versatile performer. Another male front liner is Rishi Ramkissoon. Singing for almost a decade he has been blessed with a versatile voice and tickling sense of humor. If he is not entertaining you with his singing he will have you laughing. You can never tell what he'll be up to next. Then there's Brenti. Brenti is an extremely talented, selfless and quiet person. Dwelling in Point Fortin he has the skill of always capturing the crowd with his voice. He also performed with several top soca bands, one of which was Invasion. We then have Rooplal G. the five time chutney soca monarch champ. He who has always been known for singing solo has decided to join a band and figured who else but Melobugz, since he and Rishi Mahato always had a good working relationship. His haunting voice always captivates the crowd and leaves them wanting more. Then there are the ladies. Artie Butkoon has been singing since she was twelve. She started off in temple groups and at the age of fifteen she advanced into band singing. This petit lady has a large voice and stunning body. She never fails to please and is extremely down to earth. Next there's Navita, or as we call lovingly call her Navi. She is the sister of Rishi Mahato. Navi is often quiet but once she steps up she shows her vivaciousness.
Melobugz is one of the most experienced bands in the industry and has only gotten better with time. They are always updating their technology and seem to always be setting a trend with their music.

Shurwayne Winchester.
Born and raised on the smaller of the twin island Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, Caribbean soca artiste, Shurwayne Winchester brings variety and exclusivity to the musical genre that continues to grow both regionally and internationally.
Having acquired, through great dedication and efficiency, unparalleled celebrity across the Caribbean as both a songwriter and singer, Shurwayne Winchester has proven to be the ultimate on stage entertainer, commanding any crowd and bringing energy, grace and momentum to any event.
Shurwaynes journey to stardom began at a very tender age, while still in the care of his parents on the island of Tobago. At the age of 12, he entered the competition arena, consistently making yearly contributions that impressed and propelled him to advanced stages. His ability to both pen lyrics he loved and sing them in tones far beyond what was expected of his age, gave him the fortitude to compete against some of the best in the industry, among them, veterans such as the calypso queen of the world, Denyse Plummer and Calypso Monarchs Cro Cro and Luta.
Upward growth as an artiste in the music industry of Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean has always been an identifiable priority for the youthfully vibrant, Shurwayne Winchester. Throughout his career he has gathered experience and obtained the required understanding of the music business through his affiliations with a number of bands, most notably, that of Caribbean Traffic Jam, of which he quickly became frontline singer.
.....................................................................................................
Prestan Andries grew up in Bon Air Gardens and anyone who knows him wouldn't be surprised to see the road he has travelled. From his teenage days he was always a lover of music in general and he was always on the block freestyling a tune.. In 1992 Prestan and his close friends decided to form a group called Total K-us (which included fellow artiste "King David" then known as "Goldmouth") and entered "Party Time"(A Popular Talent Show In Trinidad Back In The Day), where they placed 3rd in the competition.. Total K-us was a big hit though and was invited to open up for International Acts such as Boyz To Men, MC Hammer, TLC, Maxi Priest, Kid & Play and Born Jamericans.. This proved to be a valuable experience in the music industry for Prestan and he evolved from being the dancer/singer to concentrate more on his vocal ability and production skills.. Prestan started singing with Live Bands(Eclipse, Horizon, Klymax, Question, JMC Treveni, Made In Trinidad to name a few), doing various genre of music including Soca, Reggae, R&B, Hip Hop & even Chutney.. He has also done work with fellow artistes including Mr. Vegas, Machel Montano, Nadia Batson, Shurwayne Winchester, Blakie, Farmer Nappy of Xtatik, Varindra of JMC Treveni & good friend King David to name a few.. Prestan Andries could have probably found another job as a Comedian such is his ability to have you laughing everytime you have a conversation with him.. He is one of the most versatile artistes in Trinidad & Tobago, that can probably sing any type of music.. A truly talented individual who loves his Family to death, hardworking and always has a smile on his face.. In 2006 Prestan is currently working on his Album "All For You" which has a number of hits already including "Oh Girl" featuring Machel Montano, "Same Kid" featuring Shurwayne Winchester, "Tempting" "You & Me" and the blazing hip hop track called "Pumpin" to name a few.. Prestan's goals right now is to take his music to the world and show them the many moods of a trinidadian.
