Ry Con whose real name is Larry Bodie, a 25 year old native of Grand Bahama will be releasing a new single, "Whine for Me" featuring the voice of former Miss Bahamas Tomii Culmer.  This is Ry'con's first official single that will be released worldwide in July 2015 on the Cyclone Music Group/Time Code Records labels.  

The track was produced by Richard Webb aka Richie loops out of Jamaica.  Vocals were recorded in Freeport, Bahamas at Shotta Boy Studios.  The song was edited and mixed by Grammy nominated producer/engineer Jason Farmer at Hit Farm Studios in Coral Springs Florida.

The concept of "Whine for Me" came from Ry Con's experience of watching the women whine at carnivals in Orlando, Miami and of course the first Bahamas Junkanoo Carnival. 

However, the concept of this song came from accompanying a female friend to the Bahamas Carnival.  "It was her first time ever experiencing carnival and I wanted to make sure that she had fun," said the artist.

"So, she was at carnival just standing around and watching everyone and I tried telling her to get loose."  He wanted her to dance and have fun.  To do what her friends were doing at the time. "She eventually gave in and started to party and have fun. At the end of the day she loved the experience and started planning to attend the next annual carnival," said Ry'con.
