crazy, out of control, nothing but madness. The word is exclusive to Trinidad. Usually used when there is mass confusion, when something isn't going the way it should, or when a crowd goes wild in a concert, party etc...

Confusion or madness, in a good way. Used in most of the Caribbean like Guyana, Trinidad, and Jamaica to describe parties or other events.
