Look what we've got for Friday's musical entertainment! This is new music out of Trinidad and Tobago and the song is titled "Rum and Calypso". No, not "Rum and Coca-Cola" but "Rum and Calypso"! This is excellent timing because we love to start the weekend right. Starting it with seriously enjoyable original music is an excellent way to start the weekend right.
The featured artist is Jimmy October, he is known for his soulful vocals and catchy melodies. October was born L'shun Emmanuel in East Trinidad, and he began singing at a young age. He is one of the most popular soca artists out of Trinidad and Tobago, and he is known for his soulful live performances.
From what we hear on this track, "this pretty gyal wah rum and calypso" seems like the right sentiment as we approach Philadelphia's carnival weekend. Some 'rum and Soca music' is guaranteed, but authentic Calypso music can also set the mood for an enjoyable party event. We party and drink rum, and for older folks, Calypso music makes the event feel right. Jimmy October's latest music release caters to the younger generation, and no one will complain about that fact. After all is said and done, old and young will appreciate this song. As a result, we hope that good music can be appreciated, and this one is a great example of that.
The song was produced by Tano & Brooklyn Decent, and it features October's signature smooth vocals and catchy melodies. The lyrics are about celebrating the Caribbean culture and lifestyle, and they are sure to get you up and dancing.
Jimmy October is a talented singer-songwriter who has made a significant impact on the soca music scene. He is a rising star in the music industry, and he is sure to continue to achieve great success in the years to come. If you're looking for a song that will get you moving and make you feel good, then "Rum & Calypso" is the perfect choice for you. It's a feel-good anthem that celebrates the Caribbean culture and lifestyle.
