The Queen of Bacchanal, Soca star Destra Garcia, appeared live on Next 99.1FM with host RKG, sharing her perspective on the 2026 Carnival season.
“I find this year a lot of music resonate with what the season supposed to sound like. You know the whole idea of me singing ‘Happy People’ was to just kind of evoke that whole energy of happiness. And I hearing a whole lot of happiness in the music. Is a long time yuh ain’t hear the music sound so happy. So I real, I don’t want to call no names because when I see people in fete they say ‘you ain’t like my song’ or you like the voice or you like this one, you like that one. Not me partner.”
Destra laughed, joked, chatted, and, of course, performed her music live for Next 99.1FM’s listening audience.
