Taj Weekes Performs at iFest

FRESH LIME

By: Ayeola George

Gosh, iFest, for years I’ve been praying for a Caribbean theme, I went to iFest when it was Ireland (2001), when it was India (2005), when it was Jamaica (2006) when it was China (2007), when it was Africa (2008) and how many other countries between 2001 and 2008 praying each year, that the next would focus on the region I love. 1998 was the last time the Houston International Festival had a “Caribbean” theme. So those of you in Houston please enjoy the last weekend of iFest which has as its the theme this year “Spotlighting the Caribbean.”

If you go on Saturday, make sure to check out St. Lucian Reggae artist Taj Weekes on the Bud Light World Stage. My girls and guys from Stamina band will be in their costumes on Saturday. Of course Taj Weekes will perform. George Clinton performs on the same stage as Taj Weekes.
