“No
Santa” brings a different flavor to the holiday
season which generally centers around children, toys, knitted sweaters and of
course, Santa Claus. With playful lyrics and high octane beats, the track
is sure to be a crowd pleaser. Not to mention, the video will showcase MonCherie’s vocal abilities and feature some
of the hottest dance moves.
“People are
always talking about Santa Claus, gifts, Charlie Brown Christmas CD’s and a
bunch of kid stuff,” MonCherie said. “We decided, we don’t want
Santa, we want to have fun and party. Therefore, our goal with the song is to
give people something with a unique spin that is fun and that they can dance
to.”
Born and raised
in Castries, St. Lucia, MonCherie always believed she was destined for
stardom. At the tender age of five, she picked up a microphone for the
first time and immediately gained the adoration of those she came in contact
with, especially on her native island of St.
Lucia. She went on to represent her country in numerous pageants,
including an island wide pageant in St. Martin, where she was awarded “best promotional speech” and “Ms. Congeniality”. The country adored her
presence, burning passion for music, and positive outlook on life. Now, she
wants to share with the world some of what has made her so beloved on her
island. This starts with her music. She has already built a
loyal fan-base across the Caribbean, and as a current New Jersey resident, fans
in the states are also eager for her material.
“I am so excited
to share my music with the fans,” she said. “It has been a long road for me,
and I have endured many trials and tribulations. I have experienced working
with people who did not have my best interest at heart. Now, I am
confident that I have a great support system around me, and people who want me
to succeed.”
“No
Santa” is the first of a plethora of tracks MonCherie has under her belt, and in 2014 more
songs are to follow. And not all of them are party tracks. An aspiring
St. Lucian ambassador for music and tourism, MonCherie wants to share a wide range of her
experiences and messages. She wants to inspire, and she also wants to empower
women worldwide.
“I don’t
consider myself a role model per se’, but I want to show people that anything
is possible. It doesn’t matter where you come from, who your parents are, or
what you have been through. Only you can stand in the way of your success.”
The official
video for “No Santa” is now available for view and can be seen
online at Moncheriemusic.com and YouTube
The song is also
available on iTunes. To schedule an interview with MonCherie, please
