6. Benjai — Phenomenal
After an interesting 2014 season (he stripped down to boxers for almost every show!) many wondered if Benjai’s career was over. But with “Phenomenal” and it’s memorable proclamation “Soca does give me meh powers,” every Carnival goer was Team Benjai in 2015. Olatunji won the Groovy Soca Monarch title at this year’s International Soca Monarch competition with “Ola,” a different track on the same riddim, Kan Kan riddim, but “Phenomenal” may have well been the people’s choice, as its popularity has only grown. —Tishanna Williams
