Trinidad soca artist Bunji Garlin was in Jamaica for four days to shoot the video for his new project ‘Hall Of Fame’ with Jamaica’s Richie Stephens.

The two artists recorded their collaborative club track in late February and are hoping to have the official video for the song ready in early April. The video was shot at multiple locations in Kingston including a scene which was shot during a live performance the two did for the award winning On Stage TV show with Winford Williams. The video will feature several models and the Rifical Team Dancers (RTD) executing the ‘Hall Of Fame’ dance routine.

Bunji who won the Soul Train Award for Best International Performance last year garnered mainstream success with the Major Lazer ‘Differentology’ remix, which hit the Billboard chart. The song was featured on an episode of the prime time TV drama Greys Anatomy and landed him a deal with RCA Records.
