I believe we have a reggae superstar coming up. Mr. Romain Virgo. Yes, sir. How are you?
00:08
We're getting a little bit cramped, but what's up, Mr. Romain? How are you doing tonight?
00:13
I'm doing good. Just happy to be here, you know, at our third. It's going to be annual, you know, continue.
00:21
You know, we're so happy to be a part of the Caribbean Music Award.
00:24
But I was here the first year, last year, and it's been amazing. It's growing, and that's the most beautiful thing.
00:30
Absolutely. You know, I've been there before. It's one of my favorite songs of the past year.
00:34
And on top of that, you have about four nominations this year.
00:36
What does it feel like to walk into this theater and be nominated four times tonight?
00:41
Unbelievable. You know, I just show you what consistency and just believing in yourself and putting in the work,
00:46
regardless of what is happening. You know, you just have to believe in yourself and work out.
00:50
And all of this is happening because of the Gentleman album.
00:54
You know, and being there before is my life story.
00:56
And as I said, so many of us can relate to it. You just said it's one of your favorites.
01:00
So, you know, it's just a joy, man, to see it. You can do music, and you wrote that from a personal point of view,
01:05
but then it's able to touch somebody else and become their story as well.
01:11
So, it's a joy, man.
01:13
Absolutely. Tonight is like a big family reunion, but who are you most excited to see tonight?
01:17
Hi, everybody. Like, right now, I see some of my favorite artists, and I'm just like a big fan now.
01:22
Like, I don't know if I can't chew all of my emotions.
01:25
You know, it's just joyful to see us as Caribbean people getting this moment to celebrate our culture.
01:30
There's nothing bigger than this for us. You know?
01:33
I'm going to continue to say, like, this is our Grammys. You know what I mean?
01:38
And we should take it serious as artists. We should support. We should continue to support, you know, as much as we can,
01:43
because this can only get bigger and better, and I'm so happy that I've been here from day one.
01:48
I can show off to my grandchildren and tell them, say, hey, I was there from the initial stages, you know?
01:53
So, big love. Look up to the entire team, everybody who's a part of the awards. Big love every time.
02:00
Absolutely. Thank you so much for stopping by. We will see you inside. Congratulations again tonight.
02:05
Okay, thank you.
