Scholar ft Shakira - Innocence Lost

Описание: In the quiet corners of the Caribbean, where the sun kisses the sea and the rhythm of life flows like the gentle breeze, there are moments that shatter the peace—moments that we can never forget. One such moment is the heartbreaking tragedy that unfolded on the small island of Carriacou, where a 14-year-old girl’s life was stolen in the most violent of ways one year ago. In an instant, innocence was lost.

It is with a heavy heart that I release my first calypso for 2025, Innocence Lost, a song that speaks not only to the pain of that horrific incident but to the deep, raw reality of sexual violence that haunts our communities. The loss of this young girl is not just a tragedy for Carriacou or Grenada—it is a wound that cuts across the very soul of our society.

But beyond the grief, this song also serves as a call to action. It is a reminder that we must stand together, stronger than ever, to end the violence and protect our children. It is an anthem of resilience for those whose voices have been silenced, and a plea for justice and healing.

I am honored to be joined on this track by Miss Shakira Taylor, a former carnival queen contestant and a fierce advocate against sexual violence. Together, we stand united, in memory of this young girl, and in the name of all those whose innocence has been taken from them.

May this song spark a movement for change, and may it remind us all that the fight against sexual violence is not one that we can afford to lose.
Innocence Lost—for the children, for the survivors, and for a future where no child has to face such a fate.
