Eye Unit: Chynee - They Wanna Be Like (Video)

This one comes from the winner of Synergy Soca Star Season 4. Chynee made quite a name for himself with his gimmicky performance of "They Wanna Be Like" last season. When I saw the resulting video, I have to admit I was impressed. The concept is one that I guarantee that you've never seen in a soca video before. Furthermore, attention to detail is evident in casting, costuming, photography direction, and location scouting. (Can you tell that I used to work in film and tv? LOL)

If you never watched Soca Star, the song itself may not grab you. It's pretty much a tune to introduce himself as an artiste. The content is not universal, and the vocals are passable but not perfect. That should in no way detract from this young artist's prowess as a performer. And in the business. Being a good ENTERTAINER is your bread, butter, ham and cheese. Feel me?

So...who wanna be like Chynee?




Love and Soca,
