Get ready to savor every drop of this musical delight from "Kes the Band," with lead vocals by Kees Diefenthaler, and let the carnival spirit fill your heart! Kees looks back and uses our love for cocoa tea to fulfill many desires—our love for this comforting drink and double entendre that takes you on a sensual journey. 

Now let's focus on the task at hand: the arrival of Carnival 2025 brings with it the irresistible charm of "Cocoa Tea," the latest release from Kes the Band. Produced by the talented Tano and penned by Kes and Tano themselves, this Soca track is a delightful teaser that West Indians and Soca enthusiasts worldwide will undoubtedly cherish. Just the fact that Kes sees himself as the cocoa tea and his special someone as the sugar makes for a sizzling combination on a rainy day. It appears they will be doing "mischief" in the kitchen all day. Go for it, head of the red-man club!

"Cocoa Tea" is more than just a song; it's a nostalgic journey wrapped in a playful double entendre. For those who grew up in the Caribbean, the simple pleasure of sipping cocoa tea from an enamel cup brings back vivid memories of carefree days, where the world felt just right. It's that warm, comforting feeling akin to chicken soup for the soul—only in musical form.

"Kes the Band" has masterfully blended these heartwarming elements into a track that not only celebrates the past but also brings fresh vibes for Carnival 2025. The infectious rhythm, coupled with traditional Calypso influences and modern Soca beats, creates a soundscape that is both familiar and exhilarating.

The production by Tano is on point, capturing the essence of what makes Carnival so special. It's music that speaks to our shared heritage and the joyous spirit of the festival, inviting everyone to join in and celebrate.

If you are in a nostalgic mood, then memories of 'cocoa tea' will leave you feeling warm inside. Then again, using double entendre, we can add some spice to these lyrics. Just imagine coming home after a long day and embracing that warm feeling that the one you love can deliver. Let "De Girlz Dem Darlin," aka Kes, lead you down that sensual path. For fans of good music, just let the music take you back to those sweet, simple times and embrace the happiness and unity that Carnival brings.

Addendum:
I can assure you that the more you listen to this song, the sweeter the cocoa gets. And, for that reason, today we added the Secret Society, Madness Muv, & Marcus Williams Roadmix Muv Hype Edit. We know you will enjoy this remix; it is on fire!
