Dancing Away | Voice | Trinidad & Tobago 2021

Voice is the gift that just keeps giving... and we can't get enough of this talented artiste out of Trinidad and Tobago. People seek and find love in so many ways. Regardless, the end is always the same, unrequited love that quiets the soul and makes the heart fall in love. We all need some love in our lives and if for a moment, we can find it then we can dance away if but for a fleeting moment in time... the lucky ones find it and live it for a lifetime.

If you are a fan of Voice then, I guess you are 'dancing away' with this one on constant replay. It feels like everything Voice sings sounds really good. Then again, the lyrical content draws you in and makes you a believer! Unlike so many Caribbean singers in the Soca market, their lyrical content is sadly lacking! Voice, on the other hand, always brings lyrical content that digs deep making you want more. We are a fan and we love this new music release. Please share this post with all of your social media contacts.

From the artiste:

True love doesn’t just change the way its host sees its object, it changes the way they both see the world henceforth. This love brings you together and sets you apart. The expression of this love becomes a song that you move in unison to like perfect choreography. I hope we all find that love...that person we want to dance with forever.

Raise Yuh Voices | Mistah Shak x Derwin Vallie | Trinidad 2020

Don't be numb and dumb and never hold your tongue, always talk the truth... ahh, we have one that walks the talk today. This is new music from Mistah Shak x Derwin Vallie, the song is entitled, "Raise Yuh Voices". Fans of Mistah Shak will be sharing this song on all social media platforms for sure; this one is pure fire!

It is a known fact that the calypsonian is the voice of the people and it does not matter what style the song drops the message is always in the music. It matters not if it is calypso or rapso or, as they coined for this one, "Vokalypso" the message is on point. So much has happened for the year 2020 but the voice of the people has to be heard. So much hate, so much misunderstanding coming out of the United States has left us numb... not even the scourge of Covid-19 hurts as much as what has taken place and continues to take place in the United States. Today, we can console ourselves that our continued protest will lead to change. So don't be numb and dumb and never hold your tongue... the voice of the people will prevail!

From YouTube:

"Raise Yuh Voices", was born out of the unrests of 2020. How we choose to respond to the events impacting humanity today, will directly determine the quality of life our children and grandchildren experience in the future. It's time to 'Raise Yuh Voices!' 

From the artist's FaceBook page:

With EVERY SINGLE ELEMENT of the music having been created by producer Derwin Vallie's voice (Yesss is only mouth-instruments & tones in dey), then perfectly synergized with Mistah Shak's penetrating lyrics & commanding vocals, there can hardly be a more socially relevant, appropriately titled, sonically potent piece of musical artillery for these serious, perilous times, than dis... Rapso??🤔...Calypso??🤷🏾‍♂️...BOTH ah dem??🤨....aahhhhh!...de scientist Vallie say we go call it, VOKALYPSO!!

Showroom | Erphaan Alves | Trinidad 2021

Te quiero señorita; I love you miss! Saying I love you in any language brings out emotions of bliss and expectations of something emotionally satisfying. This is new music from the very talented and consistent artiste, Erphaan Alves. Today, he is saying "I love you" in Spanish using a show it all Latin model in 'showroom' fashion style. 

The arrival of Venezuelans in Trinidad and Tobago has already impacted the people of Trinidad and Tobago creating a storm of controversy but Erphaan has found that sweet spot that lures the men of Trinidad and Tobago to their Latin sisters. We love the vibe, the music just feels right as Erphaan weaves his story into the music... we like what we are hearing and can't wait to hear your feedback. 

In Erphaan's "Showroom" this young lady can do no wrong. She has the 'd zess' and Erphaan has already opened his wallet to lure the princess of 'zess' into his harem. The charm of the Latin princess has taken another leaving the women of the island staring jealously. C'est la vie, in Trinidad!

Vintage Soca Vol 1 | Mr. Desmond x Sokah2Soca

We have a special mix of songs that will make you think about what you were doing when these songs came out. It is time to go back, way back in time, and relive some of your fondest memories of these early Soca music releases. This mix will put a smile on your face for sure, so get ready, get your favorite drinks and get ready to listen to some classic 'Ole School Soca' tracks from of your favorites artistes, press play, and enjoy!

In the beginning, there was Sokah;  it was reported as Soca, and there the journey of a sweet Caribbean style of music forged ahead from the man known as Lord Shorty. This mix, done by Mr. Desmond for Sokah2Soca, goes back in time to bring us some of the early Soca music recordings. It may sound different but it was from this style that the pounding beat of Soca you know today started. We hope you enjoy the mix.

Good Energy | College Boy Jesse x Badjohn Republic | Trinidad 2021

These are unforgiving times and, having said that, it is apparent that we need something to hold on to to get through each day. We need caring and love, love for one another delivered with some 'Good Energy'. This is new music with a message for those who are holding out that with a little love and hope for better days everything will heal and bring back some form of normalcy in our lives. This is a production of "Badjohn Republic" and Shawn Stewart. 

College Boy Jesse, the 2020 Groovy Soca Monarch, wanted to help bring some joy to the people who feel like there is a weight on their shoulders. This song is meant to uplift spirits and engenders caring and love for one another. There is an accompanying video that was released with the song; we thought that the introduction went on too long before the music started and, as a result, decided not to post it with the music release. 

We like the song and think that you will feel the same way. Please don't forget to share this post on all social media platforms and help promote the work of this production team.
