AS the Mashramani season approaches, the air is buzzing with excitement, and so is the music scene. With the season comes a fresh wave of tunes from both established artistes and newcomers alike, each adding their unique flavour to the celebration of Guyana’s culture.
In November 2024, the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport officially launched Mashramani 2025 under the vibrant theme, “Expressing our Culture and Creativity as One Guyana”.
In keeping with the spirit of this year’s festivities, artistes vying for spots in Mash competitions were urged to submit their music for the Soca Monarch, Chutney Monarch, Calypso Monarch, and Dancehall Monarch by December 31, 2024.
One such artiste making waves is Guyanese recording sensation Kyra Dehnert, known widely by her stage name, Kyra. This young talent, who has steadily built her reputation on the local music scene, is already gearing up for the 2025 season with some new Soca hits.
In 2024, Kyra made a remarkable impact, securing second place in both the Junior Soca Monarch and Junior Calypso Monarch competitions. She is currently managed by Selector Andre.
Just over a week ago, the rising star released her highly anticipated Soca track, “No Limitation”, now available on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube.
Written by Osbert Cain (Vintayge), and produced by Selector Andre Entertainment, “No Limitation” is already creating a buzz with its infectious beat and uplifting lyrics. The song’s visualizer video has racked up over 1,000 views on YouTube in just a short time, proving that Kyra’s audience is eager for more.
But she’s not stopping there. Earlier this week, Kyra teased her fans on social media with yet another energetic release titled, “Party Ova”. Both tracks showcase her signature high-energy style, making it impossible for anyone to stay still when the music starts. It’s clear Kyra is poised to light up Mashramani 2025 with these two electrifying songs.
For more updates on Kyra’s journey and upcoming releases, fans can follow her on Instagram and YouTube @Kyraofficialgy, Facebook @KyraOfficial, and TikTok @Kyradehnert5.
With Mashramani 2025 just around the corner, Kyra’s songs are bound to be the soundtrack to many unforgettable celebrations across Guyana.
