Wheel and Come Again Radio #4: Mr. Desmond’s De OSS Rebroadcast is Live!


At Sokah2Soca, we celebrate the full rhythm of Caribbean life—and that includes the sounds that shaped Trinidad's airwaves back in the day. Long before streaming, Old School American soul, funk, and R&B didn’t just play in the background—they were etched in our memories, parties, lime-outs, and Saturday morning routines.

Now that we gave you the background information for this post, let's get into our latest "Wheel and Come Again Radio Rebroadcast." The Old School Saturdays (De OSS) On ilannnet.com/MrDesmond, Saturday was a fantastic day! Mr. Desmond unlocked the musical vault, unleashing a journey filled with groove, grit, and glorious throwbacks. We caught the moment, bottled the vibe, and now it’s on replay—ready for your listening pleasure.

The show kicked off with a bang:
  • George Benson’s sophisticated swagger on “On Broadway”
  • War’s deep, gritty soul in “The World Is a Ghetto”
  • MIllie Jackson commands attention with her song "Feel Like Making Love."
  • And the unforgettable storytelling of “Tonight Is the Night” by Millie herself
💫 As the tagline goes, “Good Morning Neba!” And yes—you are welcome.

"De OSS" isn’t just a rebroadcast. It is a revival, a resurrection of rhythm and nostalgia that fills the air like a sweet vintage perfume. So pour your favorite wine, sink into your Saturday soul, and let these songs dust off the memories you didn’t even know you missed. We'll hush now... 🎧 Click play, sip slow, and enjoy the rewind.

Finally, while we continue to proudly play soca, steelband, bouyon, and kompa, we took this moment to spin the tracks that once shared space on our stereos. Some of the older heads still have these vinyl records at home! This is the music that ruled the airwaves and still echoes in the soul. It’s not a detour—it’s part of the journey!

Let us spread awareness of the Caribbean diaspora's culture.
