Sokah2Soca

New music alert! Today we present the newly released Soca album entitled "Saccharine Riddim", minted by Mastermind Productions. There is no fanfare with this music production but. at the same time, it feels really good. This is a nice old school feels vibe delivered with solid vocal performances and refreshing lyrical content. We like what we are hearing and, to be honest, the vibe lives up to its name, pure sweetness, just Saccharine!
Every year, as the month of August, comes to a close and Labor Day approaches, new music for upcoming carnivals begin to trickle for those who live for Soca music. At this time, Trinidad and Tobago artistes along with their production teams begin to give us a taste of what is to come.

This music release fits the bill and ushers in a rebirth of music we lamented has passed a season ago but welcoming the rebirth of what is to come.  However, let's pause for a moment, because of the weight that brought carnivals across the Caribbean basin to its collected knees. Covid-19 is looming large and may yet curtain carnivals in 2021. The only hope is for a vaccine otherwise there will be another year of virtual fetes and creative carnival gatherings. We can only hope for the best.

As we ponder the future we can look forward to better times while celebrating our small successes. Today we can celebrate the fact that Mastermind Productions gave us a feel-good Riddim with artistes we love to hear from. Lyrikal, Brooklyn's own along with Nadia, Mistah Shak, and the sweet voice out of Saint Lucia and boom... Carnival is alive, the music is sweet and we can forget about our miserable life, our sinful racist ways we allowed the politicians to squeeze out in Trinidad and wine for a moment. Our shameful behavior, we cast aside, and celebrate good times as one people, one Caribbean nation looking forward to carnivals as we know they can be... good times are coming and these four songs are an excellent start!

We love the vibe, celebrate the lyrical content, applaud the vocal performances, and hope that you will share this post with your peers. Spread the word, Soca is back!
