Now this is what we are talking about, original Chutney Soca music, not some Bollywood rehash that we will not post on Soca2Soca again! Chutney Soca, when done correctly, is awesome music that makes you want to dance. From its original Chutney version by Devanand Gatoo to the updated version by this talented duo, we present Chutney Soca at its finest. Yes, Sokah is Chutney Soca, and we thank Lord Shorty for its creation! As with Soca, the music has evolved, but not as much as Soca has over the years. This song, "Shake it, Baby," by Raymond Ramnarine and Devanand Gatoo, can be played across platforms. Raymond can do Soca with the most talented of them out there. However, he loves his chutney-Soca, and we are thankful for his talent in this field.
Fans and critics will love this song; it compels you to dance, it has an infectious melody, and the lyrics simply translate into the music with seamless precision. We love this song and believe it will carry over to Carnival 2024 in Trinidad and Tobago. Obviously, we expect this song to become tremendously popular in the local Chutney Soca markets in Suriname, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago, and, to some extent, Canada.
We appreciate the song and love everything about its presentation to Chutney music lovers across the globe. Please share this post and enjoy some musically infectious Chutney Soca. We love Sokah!
