# Full Blown Entertainment

Full Blown Entertainment (FBE) is a music production and songwriting company based in the Caribbean twin-island of Trinidad and Tobago. They are responsible for the songwriting or production of songs for a variety of artists, including Boyz II Men, Machel Montano, 2face Idibia, Kes The Band, and Kerwin Dubois.

## History

Having no formal musical training, Kevon and Kory Hart were introduced to the process of composing music digitally in 2004 through a former schoolmate. In the years to follow, the duo wrote their songs in R&B, EDM and Soca music.
It would be after approximately six years that, in 2011, the company forced its first door open. In one studio session while recording a song for a wedding, they were noticed by Kasey Phillips of Precision Productions. After the recording was done, Phillips approached the duo and inquired whether they would be willing to write Soca music for the upcoming Carnival celebrations. After initially turning down the offer, they accepted a compact disc with some instrumentals composed by Precision Productions. Coming out of this was the very first song they shopped: Machel Montano's "Vibes Cyah Done". Stemming from this, Machel requested a meeting with Full Blown.

## Songwriting and production careers
### 2012: Career beginnings

In 2012, two of their songs eventually placed 1st and 3rd in the International Groovy Soca Monarch Competition; Machel Montano's "Mr. Fete" and Benjai's People's "Champion" respectively. The Mr. Fete final performance was the brainchild of both Arvinder Rampersad and legendary artist and "mas-man" Peter Minshall. This would be Machel's very first Groovy Soca Monarch title.
Machel Montano's Vibes Cyah Done and Mr. Fete songs were both released as singles under the umbrella of record company Universal Music, France. Vibes Cyah Done was released and featured Guadeloupe artiste and labelmate Admiral T while Mr. Fete remix was released featuring another Guadeloupe artiste and labelmate Matt Houston and Kulu G.

### 2013: Sophomore year

In 2013, for a second year in a row, they won the International Groovy Soca Monarch Competition title with Machel Montano's song entitled "FOG". The finals performance was also choreographed by FBE and Machel Montano.

### 2014–2015

Full Blown Entertainment won the International Soca Monarch title in the Groovy category. The FBE has new members: Aaron St. Louis, who was also a co-writer of "Too Real". Kerwin DuBois entered the competition as the underdog and eventually dethroned the "King of Soca" Machel Montano. Du Bois had previously won it in 2011 as a songwriter and producer for the winning song entitled "Wotless", which was performed by Kees Dieffenthaller. Assisted by the choreography of Step Up Revolution's Jamaal Sims, the performance won.
FBE teamed up with Roc Nation's star producer Deputy as well as Machel Montano and London Future. The brass-driven composition is their fourth title-winning song, capturing the 2015 International Power Soca Monarch title as well as the 2015 Road March title for the song most played during the Carnival parade.

### 2015–present: Carnival

Currently, FBE is engaged in a number of projects outside of the Soca genre. After their songwriting and production for the likes of Boyz II Men, they worked with songwriter and musician Claude Kelly. They also wrote for Nigerian vocalist 2face Idibia with his recently released single entitled "Go", featuring Machel Montano on his latest album, The Ascension.
FBE composed music for the 2016 Trinidad Carnival with selected artistes such as Kes The Band, Machel Montano, Kerwin DuBois and Lyrikal.
