Some would be surprised ‘The General’ Edwin Yearwood started his entertainment career by winning a national singing competition at the age of 14 with a ballad.

Six years later, Krosfyah the band was formed, producing their debut album ‘Ultimate Dance Party-Pump Me Up’ in 1995.

It remains the biggest selling album in the soca genre. The hitmaker who wrote all his soca songs, reflects on his career spanning 30 years in the industry.
