De­noon lat­er told Guardian Me­dia that she was elat­ed to cap­ture the crown and looked for­ward to par­tic­i­pat­ing in To­ba­go’s Car­ni­val card­ed for Oc­to­ber

She said the song was writ­ten by Shel­don Reid with as­sis­tance from Jesse Mar­lon Tay­lor

She said, “The song is about our rich an­ces­try and that we as To­bag­o­ni­ans, what­ev­er dis­as­ter comes, we can hold on to our tra­di­tions be­cause this is who we are. This is em­bed­ded in us, we have that unique cre­ative sense of to­geth­er­ness.”
