Selena was a talented singer whose life was cut short way too young. But she has left us with some wonderful songs. Here is just one of them. I think Sky might know this one.

Shania Twain is a Canadian singer. She was born in Timmins, Ontario. She had quite a turbulent childhood, lost her parents in a car crash when only a teenager. And then she had to take care of her younger siblings herself. But out of that was born a spirit and determination that show through in her songs I think.
Shania Twain - God Bless The Child

Chutney music is native to the Indians of Trinidad & Tobago. They take influences from bollywood and mash it up with the steel band and rap tradition of the islands.
From what I was told, Ravi B. is the #1 in Trinidad in this mixup of chutney rap music.

When I was young we used Vooldum as an expression of appreciation. Eartha Kitt really stole the hearts of a whole generation.
