Born in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago and based in Brooklyn, New York, Jason “GBMNutron” Carter is a bonafide triple threat who has been igniting the Caribbean music scene for years now, first as an acclaimed producer and talented songwriter, and now as an electrifying artist.

Under the GBM Productions imprint, helmed by Kenwyn “GB” Holder and GBMNutron, the studio has been responsible for some of the biggest hits in and out of the Caribbean, with GBMNutron composing the lead single for Pitbull’s Mr. Worldwide album, “Alright” – a remix of GBM Productions’ breakout hit, “Ramajay” by Machel Montano. GBMNutron has also produced numerous soca blockbusters that have topped charts and playlists, including Destra Garcia’s “Just A Little Bit” and “Dip And Ride” (Set Good Riddim), Shal Marshall’s “Motivation” and “Party,” and his own monster jam “Scene,” just to name a few. With his flawless transition into an artist, GBMNutron has been touring throughout North America and the Caribbean, earning the hearts of fans with his energetic and captivating live performances. Now with his first international studio effort in hand, he is sure to capture the attention of fans and critics alike, across the globe.

Calypso: The Unsung Legacy is jammed with 15 gems, spanning the spectrum of soca, calypso, dancehall, reggae, tropical house and island pop, making for the ultimate collection of Caribbean music from its newest global ambassador. These eclectic, fusion hits include already-massive fan favorites such as “Scene,” “Calypso,” “Only Good Vibes,” “Rock You Out” and “SOLD (Soca On Lockdown),”which are all mainstays on soca radio, playlists and platforms, worldwide. The majority of the album was composed and written by GBMNutron, with features from soca sensations Milko, M1 and Preedy, and sees additional productions from Fingas Productions, Precision Productions and Bobby Dubs.

Grenadian soca star Tallpree ignites with his new EP Jab Love. Born and based in the Spice Isle of Grenada, Wilt “Tallpree” Cambridge has been placing Grenadian music on the global map for three decades now. His first international EP, Jab Love is already placing Grenadian music in the spotlight, as it is featured on the iTunes U.S. Reggae section New Music chart, during its 1st week of release.

Jab Love jams with six (6) jab jab anthems, including favorites from both Spicemas (Grenada’s annual carnival) and Trinidad Carnival, including “Call Yuh Mother,” “Mas Man,” “Jab Love” and “Head Gone,” thereby delivering cross-Caribbean hits for fans internationally. Hit production houses Build De Vibes, Xpert Productions, N.M.G. Music Group and YTM Recordz crafted the sizzlers, which Tallpree has been bringing to the masses as he recently performed for huge crowds at Caribana – Toronto’s annual carnival, before heading back home for Spicemas and his annual star-studded concert, Preeday – which celebrated his 20th anniversary in soca music this year. He will be storming New York City shortly for the West Indian American Day Carnival celebrations, where Jab Love will be experienced by even more revelers.
