Machel Montano gets One Degree Hotter
Soca icon Machel Montano has released a new album One Degree Hotter via Monk Music/Symphonic.
Boasting high-energy rhythms, the 16-track LP ignites pure joy, freedom, and unapologetic celebration during the peak of Trinidad’s Carnival season when parades of costumed revelry dominate the streets.
The album kicks off with a brand new remix featuring R&B pop legend Ne-Yo on Truth & Balance. Machel style style fuses with Jamaican dancehall artist Ayetian and producer DJ MAC.
Then Machel turns up the dial with another international superstar, Nigerian hitmaker Davido, on Fling It Up. The song already landed at #48 on Billboard’s Afrobeats Songs chart, and Machel and Davido will shoot the music video for this banger in Trinidad during Carnival.
As Machel Montano’s Carnival tour is in full swing, the album’s lead single Pardy (produced by XplicitMevon & BadjohnRepublic) is the #1 song in his native country of Trinidad and the top contender for the coveted Road March title at Carnival this year.
If it wins, he will tie the legendary Lord Kitchener with 11 titles, the most of all time.
The album also delivers a special Pardy (Road Mix), produced by Madness MUV x D Ninja x DJ Marcus Williams, ready to debut and pump through the Carnival truck speakers.
One Degree Hotter will be a scorcher for all seasons.
