COMING SOON!!! Mista Vybe’s NEW ONLINE SERIES: “2 D WORLD!” (Season 1: Germany) from Mista Vybe on Vimeo.

I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag too soon by posting all the juicy details, but just know that your boy (that would be me lol) is SUPER excited about the debut of the my new show – which will be “broadcasting” right here at MistaVybeWorld.com very soon!

Enjoy the promo while the seconds tick away to our BIG PREMIERE!

Tell a friend to tell a friend! COMING SOON Exclusively to MistaVybeWorld.com: Mista Vybe’s new online Reality series “2 D World!”

Orlando over at Informtainment.com posted a blog entry congratulating me on the success of MistaVybeWorld.com, adding: “Mista Vybe you are moving in the right direction with the new website”.

Also, my newfound friend and musical collaborator The Great Zeee, bigged me up on his infamous ZBLOG. In case the name sounds familiar, Zee produced my current single, “Sweetness (Nani’s Song)” on the Soft Tune Riddim. Thanks for the love Zeee – as you always say, “Do it BIG – Do it NOW” lol.

And to top things off, longtime supporter and renowned Soca journalist/blogger Nurse Karen gave us a thumbs up on her highly respected blog earlier this week, and I got word today that she detailed the launching of www.MistaVybeWorld.com during her live radio segment on “The Rounds” this past Sunday (August 16, 2009) as well!

Not bad for less than 7 days in existence, huh? Once again – thanks to everyone that showed and continues to show love to myself and to MistaVybeWorld.com! Stay tuned… we’ve got MUCH MORE in store – this is ONLY the beginning. Trust me when I say that you won’t want to miss what’s NEXT ;-) Blessings and love,

Mista Vybe

These are the people whose unique contributions, boundless talents and tireless work were reposnsible for making the site  – and more importantly  Mista Vybe – the glorious success you see today (not to mention helping whip up a couple more tricks we still have in  the bag waiting to spring on you guys soon).

Meet my fam – Team Vybe! Here’s a quick debriefing:

Joanne Marcano of the Real Mark Global Group is my Manager, my family, my friend and quite literally my right hand (either to help create beautiful art or to  smack punk bitches down [and not just the female type] in the name of progress/business lol). How does she manage to accomplish all this while she’s in Toronto and I live in Trinidad? Lord alone knows lol but whatever it is, I wouldn’t trade it for the world! Best Management in the world! Love you cuz!

Ten of theyoungfreshnew.com is one of Toronto’s most respected young entertainment bloggers and a force to be reckoned with in website design. Without her HTML expertise (and her patience with Jo and I both being perfectionists), you’d literally be looking at a blank page right now. Thanks a million for the many hours of blood, sweat and tears, Ten. It’s been a pleasure working with you. Okay NOW you can sleep… a lil bit – cause see – I have this idea… LMAO!

Sandhya Khanna currently handles Media Relations (PR for you non-biz folks) for Mista Vybe (the artist) and MistaVybeWorld (the site), as well as several other projects alongside Joanne and Real Mark Global. She’s the author behind the recently launched Mista Vybe Newsletter and generally a true Team member through and through. She also happens to play 5 instruments, sings, does sound engineering/production, and has credentials in broadcasting and marketing… hmmm – over-qualified much? lol Thanks for all the hard work Sandy – it’s a pleasure to have you on my Team!

Michelle “Miche” Williams of Fuzion Movement Marketing has been instrumental in the online marketing of Mista Vybe the artist for years. She’s also a treasured longtime friend and one of my favourite people to collab with in the studio (she produced one of my most popular international joints, “Always On My Mind”). Fuzion Movement (big up Suzette and the rest of the crew), along with Real Mark Global, MistaVybeWorld and yours truly as an artist have many big things planned for the near future, so stay tuned for updates. Love you Miche! Thanks for your continued support and friendship!

And last but by NO MEANS least…the enigmatic Keith Matthews Jr. of God Stone Films and Sav Creative Media is better known to the rest of Team Vybe as “Sav”, because he is quite literally a BEAST (beast… savage… sav? Must I spell it out? lol) when it comes to editing, directing, camera work and all things audio/visual. Can’t tell you too much about him right now because “Sav” is the secret weapon of MistaVybeWorld.com. The very cool animated logos at the end of some of the videos we already launched on the site (check the Intro vid up at the top of the page, for instance) are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his amazing directorial, editing and special FX skills – TRUST me on this. Stay tuned – Sav’s full contribution will become clear when we launch Phase Two of our plan for World Domination. Muhahahahaha!!!! *villainous grin* (“Was that too over the top? I never can tell…” - quote from Jim Carrey as The Riddler in Batman Forever, 1995.)

In short – these are the folks responsible for MistaVybeWorld.com and, by extension, a whole new beginning for Mista Vybe. Oh – did I mention that ALL these folks live in Toronto, Canada (except Miche, who’s NY based) while I’m in Trinidad, so I haven’t actually MET them (again other than Miche) in person yet? Crazy right? But nevertheless – we’re a team – united and unstoppable (thank God for the power of the internet and tele-conferencing!)

Thanks guys for all your dedication and hard work, both for myself the artist and for MistaVybeWorld.com. Got love for you all! Blessings and much respect,

Mista Vybe

In the meantime though, I just wanna say on behalf of myself and my showbiz “family”, The Big Artist Crew, THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who supported us so lovingly during our amazing performance at the Super Concert on Saturday night at Carifesta IX, in the National Stadium (Trinidad)!

You know, sometimes when you spend as much time away from home representin’ your country as I do, you find yourself wondering if the people at home appreciate what you do as much as the fans abroad do when Carnival is over… and at Carifesta the warm reception myself and the crew got certainly proved that there’s NO PLACE LIKE HOME! Gotta send a special shout ot to the Crew…

Saturday night was the first time in a while the entire Crew got to represent together on one big stage – and it was a night to remember trust me!

My homegirl Michelle Sylvester started things off with a bang, mashing up the place with her string of hit tunes, including “Go Ahead”, “Sleep In Your Bed”, “Face Me”…

Then it was MY turn! Singing “Always On My Mind” with Michelle is always wonderful but this time it was made even more special by the thousands of you out there who sang and danced along… thank you guys and thanks Meesh! Love ya! (Aye Michelle! I hear we make the Express front page? Wayyyyyy!)

After “Always”, I got to perform “Ting” in my first major show at home since I won the Caribbean Soca Monarch. Judging by the amount of jumpin’ and wavin’ and winin’ going on I’d say “Ting 4 D Road” certainly still has that special something… Never ceases to amaze me how people react to that song.

“Somebody say Ting..4 D Road” for real!!!

My lil sista was waiting in the wings by this time, but before I brought her onstage I had to big up the rest of the Big Artist Crew. Even though they weren’t booked for the show, my friends Nadia Batson and Terry Seales not only came along to the event, but even sang backgrounds and gave the crowd a lil impromptu piece of their solo performing skills too! Thanks you guys!

Big Artist Crew forever!

Oh – can’t leave out my lil homey (and one of my favourite producers to work with), Julian “Julio” Nelson (that’s him in the yellow and green)! Saturday was the first time I got to finally introduce the young man who produced all the music for “Ting 4 D Road” live onstage! Julio boy – time to release yuh solo tune – dem ladies out dey feelin yuh LOL!

Last but by no means least, my lil sista Ms. Alysha BLAZED the place with her hit tune “Party”! (Hope you havin fun mashin up Miami Carnival sis – I miss you! Come back soon!)

It was truly a night to remember – the Big Artist Crew in full effect, supported heart and soul by the great audience at Carifesta IX.

I couldn’t end this blog entry without mentioning some of the other talented artists who performed that night, including Jadee (“Dooon’t DIS mih God!), Maximus Dan (D.C.D.B.!), Isaac Blackman (big up the love Circle family), Jabae (whaddup Barry – sorry I left before you guys performed!), H20 Phlo (look out for the new H20/Ms. Alysha collaboration – comin soon!), Multi Symptom… the list is endless.

Finally, after all that love at Carifesta, Michelle and I hustled down to Clifton Hill, Point Fortin, (yeah you read it right – from Port-of-Spain to POINT!), where we performed to another appreciative audience. Point is always a great crowd – love you guys!

Bless up Shal Marshall & Clyde The Outlaw (thanks for hypin’ up the crowd for us fellas!) and my boy Brenty (Invazion family!), the best selector we could ever ask for.

Special shout out to www.TriniView.com….where you can find all these cool pics and more! Check them out for pics of all the happenings..during the whole week of Carifesta IX!

Mista Vybe is gone again… studio callin!
