Super sexy Soca diva Destra is promising a little bit of everything plus a big surprise act for her performance at Smirnoff Beach Jouvert tomorrow 23 at James Bond Beach. The singer who has been performing here over the years and has a large fan base, says Jamaicans know that she always tries to keep things interesting whenever she makes an appearance here. "I always try to be a little bit different but yet the same. I know people look forward to very energetic, amazing performances from me. So it always a lot of pressure to kind of do better than the last time," she said. "But with real vibes and real love for what I do and the energy that I naturally bring, it never really that hard to please Jamaica because Jamaica and me are always on the same page, I kind of read them well and they bring out the best in me." That being said, she says the plan is to perform songs from her new album and some of the old classics for which she has become well known. Destra recently released her latest album called Welcome Back. She said she named the album Welcome Back because she took a year off from the Trinidad Carnival. She describes it as a 'hit-studded album'. "We have a lot of new songs, Cool It Down, Working, Proper, and Welcome Back, the title track," she said. She also brings more than just the new album and the new songs. "I am also bringing, a surprise guest, Supa Jigga TC. He has songs like Speaker Box and we did a collaboration together and we performed together at Trini carnival so I brought him to Jamaica for the first time. He has never performed here before. I can guarantee that everybody is going to be happy, sweating and feeling like they did suppen." |
