The clip was shot from the audience in the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port-of-Spain (which explains the audio quality, but in the absence of an official teaser….) The full video will reportedly feature several soca stars and masqueraders in traditional carnival outfits.


And If you’re looking for actual, substantial behind-the-set details, though, you’re looking for this article on Trinidad and Tobago’s Newsday, which includes details about Minaj we’re going to call essential:

Soca couple Bunji Garlin (Ian Alvarez) and his wife, Fay Ann Lyons, who were also at the Savannah for several hours, were placed on top of the trucks and performed for a few minutes before Minaj appeared alongside the duo.

Director Benny Boom asked for the crew to play Minaj’s song but the star pouted and asked for Bunji’s music.
