00:00 It's Carnival Friday and the vibes are in the air.
00:10 Soca legend and former chutney soca monarch, Ricky Jai tells us, while the season is short,
00:16 he has been moving around and having a great time.
00:19 Fantastic Friday.
00:21 Fantastic.
00:22 It's a short season and I really can't complain.
00:28 I've gained some love with the music in a couple of parties.
00:31 And a guy like me who has been in the business for so long, I understand the highs and the lows and the in-betweens of the industry.
00:39 And sometimes you have a season like this, which is so short that sometimes all the music just cutting through and the radio station, some DJs even download music.
00:49 But for me, I'm happy.
00:51 I'm happy. I have life. I have love. And I'm here on TV in front of my country.
00:56 Ricky shared his secret to life and happiness.
01:00 I live life with love, live life with truth, with honesty, do things with a good heart.
01:05 Don't try to hold no malice on nobody, don't hold no grudge on nobody.
01:09 If somebody do me something wrong, I try my best to put it in the back and don't hold it on my shoulder.
01:13 Don't hold it in my mind, you know, constantly doing positive affirmations and keeping my mind productive and positive is part of the whole thing.
01:22 Understanding that failure is the road to success.
01:25 Here's a snippet of his rooftop performance.
01:28 I'm gonna wine and get on bad, get on bad, get on bad.
01:32 Say once that big thing be right on the mail.
01:35 I'm gonna wine and get on bad, get on bad, get on bad.
01:39 From since you've been with me, you understand that I love to party.
01:44 Love to party, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:47 Northern big man and I'm a machine up and rich.
01:50 I still love to party to my soca music, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:54 I don't care who I'm dealing with, she keep me back from the outside blind.
01:59 We got it done, got it done, I don't care how you're feeling when I'm up down the road, I is the dance.
