Hip Hop Icon Chubb Rock and his Weekend Warriors crew have partnered with Gotta Have Events to produce an exclusive Caribbean Carnival experience at the Riverdale Town Center Amphitheater on October 16, 2022 called Gotta Have Carnival. The event, scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m., includes a full cultural immersion with Caribbean food, alcohol tastings and performances by in-demand Soca music artists from the islands. Since starting the Chubb Rock Weekend Warriors experience on OG 97.9 FM, the hip hop artist has continued to raise awareness of his radio shows through various events in Atlanta. These events will grow through a collaboration with entrepreneur and Global Live Events Producer-Vincent Versher and the City of Riverdale.
The two like-minded visionaries aim to organize events that do more than entertain, but also create an unforgettable experience for customers. Gotta Have Carnival promises a cultural immersion with Caribbean food, drink and music. This event is suitable for carnival lovers. The Miami Carnival post experience allows customers to either relive memories of Miami Carnival (which takes place the weekend before) or create memories for those unable to attend. With Weekend Warriors’ close ties to the Caribbean, it made sense to launch one of the first events as a Caribbean carnival experience. This Gotta Have branded event series will also host a House Music experience that same weekend (October 15). Joining forces with the City of Riverdale by holding events at the Riverdale City Center Amphitheater has created an opportunity for teams to give back to the community by supporting Riverdale Sports Riverdale.
The Gotta Have Carnival experience will include steelhead performances, style dancers, popular Caribbean DJs and artistic acts from world-renowned Soca artists Kerwin Du Bois, GBM Nutron and Olatunji Yearwood. Each of these artists has made significant strides in putting Caribbean music on the world map. Olatunji Yearwood is a 2015 Groovy Soca Monarch winner who has also broken barriers in the Afro beat market and has even been nominated for the Nigerian Entertainment Award for Afrosoca artistes. Olatunji was also a contestant on the X Factor TV series 2018. Kerwin Du Bois is a Junior Calypso Monarch winner and award-nominated producer. In 2008, he was nominated for eight International Soca Awards and was the winner of the 2015 Groovy Soca Monarch for his song “Too Real”. GBM Nutron is a singer, songwriter, producer and musician who has produced for artists such as Machel Montano, Destra Garcia, Shal Marshall, Lyrikal, Ravi B and many more. His latest release, Down Dey, has taken the international music scene by storm.
The collaborative team intends to continue with similar branded events for different genres of music in the coming months. This exclusive carnival experience is sure to draw a huge crowd, so patrons are encouraged to purchase tickets early at www.singandlaugh.com.
