Mical became entangled in Melda's wedding plans, and now he is experiencing severe Tabanca symptoms. "Oh, Lord Fadda, please intervene and Jahray this young man!" That was just for fun, but Mical Teja's talent is exceptional. This might be the only occasion in which Tabanca's success can be considered positive. With the release of this song, Carnival fans are in for a musical treat.
Teja has done it again; he has taken a snippet of a classic Calypso and created a musical gem for Carnival 2025. Last carnival season, Teja transformed Explainer's classic "Lorraine" into "Runaway," and for Carnival 2025, he tackled Sparrow's "Obeah Wedding" to create the musical masterpiece "Tabanca."
We have a positive feeling that this song is going to become a hit for Carnival 2025 in Trinidad & Tobago. The highlights of the song are the catchy lyrics, excellent vocal delivery, and very danceable music. "Tabanca," written and produced by Mical Teja and Tano, with additional production from Kyle Peters, sets the standard for excellent Soca music suitable for the upcoming carnival festivities. One of my favorite female Soca artists, Miss Terri Lyons, added her sweet voice and singing style to the background vocals. What else can I say or dare I say it here: This song is going to be a hit for upcoming carnival fetes. We love it! Please share your thoughts after listening to the song.
