Cup Match in Bermuda, is a cricket game between the east and western ends of the island. Players that represent the best of the cricketers in the island. Friends and families can be enemies for the two day event on opposing sides but after the game is over they will drink, laugh , party and in some cases cry together. Two days when Bermudians show real hospitality..
“I wanted this video to feel authentic to my culture, and my sense of self as a Bermudian. I actually shot this video with 21 mile films and all of these scenes are in places are familiar to where I either grew up or still hang out to this day. It was time for me to take you guys on a little visual journey and I hope you love the view from where you’re sitting. This song is a remake of Turn Me On by Kevin Lyttle . I actually had reached out to him about a year and a half ago and I first recorded it and he gave me a thumbs up! This song has become so monumental in the Caribbean and in the US. I’m glad that I could give you guys a little taste of this side of me.” – K.K
