Large Up Exclusive: Machel Montano and Walshy Fire

Words by Eddie STATS Houghton

This is a warning: you may hear us dropping the name of our Miami correspondent Walshy Fire a lot in the near future. Not only is he set to wreck shop at WMC next week but he recently made the transition from pirate radio champ to mainstream radio ambassador with his Sunday “Rocker’s Island” show on 103.5 the Beat. He didn’t waste much time in landing this exclusive heavyweight interview with Machel Montano, chopping it up with the Soca king about his plans for the future and why he skipped Trinidad for Carnival 2010. Check it, and get familiar with Walshy’s name and voice.
