Du
Bois rose through the ranks of the calypso world, winning
the Junior Calypso Monarch competition, the Young Kings
competition and reaching as far the Big Yard for the National
Calypso Monarch finals on several occasions. He was hailed
as a rising star, delighting young and old alike with his
melodious voice and thought-provoking lyrics and was selected
to represent Trinidad along with other young calypsonians
for an Arts Council funded Calypso Youth Exchange programme
hosted by the Association of British Calypsonians.
In recent years, Du Bois has spread his wings and can no
longer be considered simply a calypsonian.
He experimented into the fields of Sound Engineering and
Audio Editing and his voice is aired on numerous amounts
of Radio adverts becoming the voice of Soca Music throughout
London, England.
His efforts have been acknowledged by some of the other
major soca artists who have tapped into the talents of this
accomplished hit maker. He has produced tracks for 2004
Soca Monarch Bunji Garlin’s Black Spaniard album written
and performed the 2004 hit ‘BubbleNut’ with
Xtatik’s Machel Montano. He has also worked with the
dynamic vocal group H2O Phlo on a track entitled “J’ouvert”
and has been an influence in encouraging younger Soca Music
lovers to become apart of the Artform itself.
Du Bois is also an accomplished DJ and has earned for his
skills on the turntables from listeners in the Soca Fetes
and to BBC 1Xtra’s International Sounds of Soca. He
is currently lending his expertise to the recently launched
online radio station socafm.com.
Du Bois is a powerhouse of young talent bringing Soca music
to the world.
