The interview was captured during Shine’s 10th anniversary celebration as Skinny Banton was introducing music for Grenada’s 2014 Carnival season.

Only weeks before Shine XS, Julianspromos had uploaded and promoted Skinny Banton’s “Soak It Good,” a record that would become closely associated with the 2014 Spicemas and Jab Jab season.

The Shine interview therefore preserves Skinny Banton at an interesting point in the song’s journey, as new Grenadian Soca was beginning to travel through the wider Caribbean and international Carnival circuit.

Julianspromos coverage was hosted and the interview conducted by Sheniele “Vivaa” Dodson, with the footage shot and edited by Julian C. Hackett.
