Arima’s own Vernice “Trini Baby” Herreira is rewriting the rules with her latest release, Ouu La La. This isn’t your typical jump-and-wave Soca—it’s a genre-blending groove that sways with Kompa finesse and whispers with vocal intimacy. Trini Baby isn’t just singing; she’s producing, mixing, mastering, and styling her sound from the inside out.
The track’s DNA is unmistakably Caribbean: Soca rhythm, Kompa soul, and lyrical joy. But it’s the execution that sets it apart. With Kyle Peters on guitars and bass and background vocals from Thiery’s World, Attalia, LAEL, and Trini Baby herself, Ouu La La feels like a collective celebration of sound. The lyric video, released via JulianspromosTV, is already gaining traction, and the YouTube comments are glowing.
Trini Baby’s recent feature with Voice on Sweet Music showed she could hold her own alongside established stars. But Ouu La La proves she’s building her own lane—one that’s smooth, smart, and regionally expansive. Expect this track to resonate not just in Trinidad but across the northern Caribbean, where Kompa’s heartbeat is strong.
I know that Haitians can exploit this music with their dance style; the music emphasizes smooth, intimate partner movements, not the whining style that Trinidad is known for... but change is coming!
Trinidad continues to produce excellent young and upcoming talent, but Trini Baby isn't just a rising star. She’s a rising standard.
