Young dancehall and Head Concussion Records producer, Tarik Johnston, who goes by the moniker 'Russian', left the island on Wednesday for Trinidad and Tobago.
The move is to host an event dubbed 'berCooler' which is slated for December 18 at Peir 1 Chaguaramas in Trinidad and Tobago. Russian, who also recently returned to the island after performing in Trinidad with Chan Dizzy, Aidonia, JOP and Conci, is excited about hosting an event in Trinidad.
Being away hasn't stopped Russian from continuing to create an impact on the local music scene, as Russian released two singles before leaving the island: Konshens' Bed Room General and Mr Vegas' Ghetto Girl, which has been dominating local radio stations.
Come December 18, Pier 1 will come alive for the biggest water event to hit Trinidad, as Russian plans to execute this with the Trinidadian promoters and he is also working with Head Concussion Records public relations manager Bradley Richards.
"This will be my first event in Trinidad and I'm going to make my set as enjoyable as possible. Early bird tickets were sold out two days after being released so you know the event is going to be hot," said Russian.
Adding: "My fans here have been extremely supportive so I really want to make it a great experience for them. This event will also feature Trinidad's top djs such as DJ Red, Lubrz, Mazel and DJ Tech just to name a few."
