Songbird Wendi burst on to the soca scene with several hits recently and her star has been rising ever since!
The petite singer/songwriter who totally lights up the stage every time she graces it, is being praised and awarded for her no holds barred, fun-filled and energetic performances on stage and in her videos…and rightfully so!
Fresh off of her win at the 2018 Elevation Awards for Music Video of the Year for her “Een Missin’ It” visuals, the song and video are once again nominated, this time for an international award.
The 15th annual International Soca Awards is happening soon and Wendi’s hit is up for the Soca Music Video of the Year “Female” Award!
The video is directed by F.Dot and features non-stop dancing, island flair, vibrant color and major attitude!

We caught up with Wendi recently to ask about this super soca nomination, here’s what she said:
I am so excited about this nomination in the most whimsical and delicious way! The nod fell into my lap, almost literally. To be among artists that I truly do respect and am a fan of, it’s quite an amazing and surreal emotion, pleasure and honor.
Wendi says she found out about her nomination at a local performance recently, when an industry friend ran up to her telling her that someone was looking for her.
He called the person and handed me the phone and the guy on the phone said, ‘I was just trying to get your contact!’ He said his name was Colin Jackman and that he was calling from the annual International Soca Awards and that they’d been trying to reach out to me for the past few days through my Facebook. But you know it was carnival time so I wasn’t really checking my messages! And that’s when he told me about the nomination!
Now here’s where you come in! Team Bahamas, Wendi needs your votes!
You can make sure our girl brings home the soca trophy by heading to THIS WEBSITE to vote for her as many times as you’d like, every day! Scroll down the list of categories, look for category 10 and vote, vote vote!
