SCORES of bikini-clad females turned out to Gyal Storm held at West Kirkland Crescent in Red Hills, St Andrew, on May 21.

Dubbed the ‘Ultimate Pool Party’, the lush green area, fresh air and cool temperature and high-tempo music provided the prefect conditions for the event.

Patrons were given a treat with the likes of ZJ Chrome and Chinkey at the musical consoles. They supplied a mixture of high-intensity dancehall, hip hop, and soca music to ensure that the guests were kept busy on the dancefloor. Females were seen dancing near the poolside and in the water to songs including Brysco’s Code, Bayka’s She Like It, Linky First’s Rock and Come In, and Moyann and Jashii’s How We A Live.

One of the event’s promoters, Rohan-Lee Morgan, explained the concept behind Gyal Storm pool party.

“We wanted a name that was catchy and that would capture our targeted audience which is females who reside in and out of the Corporate Area. When women are at a party, it automatically attracts men to the venue. This will result in the event being a success based upon the large number of people who turned out to the event,” he said.

Morgan explained that based on his research and dialogue with potential patrons, a event that caters strictly for the women was in demand.

“The ladies were in need of a event that catered for them. Many of them told me they were tired of hearing the ‘Chappa’ songs and wanted to hear some smooth love songs. I guess that is why they stormed in the venue as early as 11:00 am to hear the music that was being played by ZJ Chrome,” he said.

He said that the high point of the event was seeing the number of celebrities who were in attendance at Gyal Storm.

“We had the likes of popular Instagram comedian and artist Prince Pine, social media influencer Kadesha Porter, and Bayka who is burning up the musical scene. Having these individuals at our event definitely gave us the right attention that was needed and gave us a sense of credibility as the place to be,” said Morgan.

The promoter also explained that Gyal Storm was the first event he hosted since the reopening of the entertainment sector in mid-March.

“It’s a great feeling being able to host events again, this is because with the curfew, you couldn’t make any money or enjoy yourself. Having this event really provided a form of income in every one’s pocket who were part of the proceedings such as the bottle-service girls, DJs and the persons who arranged the venue,” he said.

The next stagings of Gyal Storm will be in August and then in December.
