2013 Groovy Soca Monarch has been increased from last year’s $500,000 to $1 million..
Machel Montano has thrown down the gauntlet to SuperBlue, saying he is ready for any "bouncer" the veteran has to bowl at him on the night of the Soca Monarch finals.....Montano, the defending Power and Groovy Monarch, believes it will be a night when the student will school the teacher.....
SuperBlue, who won the Soca Monarch title on six previous occasions, is making his first appearance in over a decade in the competition on Fantastic Friday (February 8).
Respect aside, Montano said he had every intention to change the catchphrase Fantastic Friday. "It is now Float Friday, as a matter of fact, fogging, float Friday. We going to float, fog up the place and make it real nice."
