Then on Thursday The WAVE 94.5 announced the winner of its annual People’s Choice Soca Performer: Kerwyn Bowers, better known as Private 6, who is also a police officer. Private 6 won himself a trophy, EC$4,000 and a Samsung Galaxy, compliments of Digicel. His release and winning song is ‘On Fleek.’
Speaking at a brief ceremony held at The Wave on Thursday, the singer said he felt “very ecstatic.” “Private 6 has been an artiste for almost a decade and right now I would like to thank The Wave, Digicel, First Citizens and all other sponsors for giving me the opportunity to represent the people and to be the people’s monarch,” he said. A finalist in the national Soca monarch competition previously, he shared this with his fellow artistes: “Never give up on your dreams; there are always possibilities; put God first and always have faith, and work at your craft; you never know when your time will come.”
