Our culture is alive and well and the future of Soca is in good hands. D1 and Barii drop into the 2026 season with “Go Down,” a creative track that blends panoramic village vibes with Carnival energy. The cover says it all—lush hills, winding roads, and a golden command from Lorraine to move, shall we say, to "Go Down." This is not just a song; it’s a call to action, it is our cultural heritage brought to life in song.
“Go Down” is a saucy song that winking eyes will tell the true story of, but we will just say it is a fun song with a melody to make you want to get up and dance. The beat is heavy, the vocals confident, and the message clear: when the music hits, don’t stand still.
We love everything about this song, the scenery, the characters, the short movie characterizations and music that is so infectious. This song carries the brand of music that we love, full of storytelling and calypso style but overflowing with Soca's groove—it is culture, movement, and a mic that never stays quiet.
Let us spread awareness of the culture of the Caribbean diaspora.
We do this to promote Caribbean culture, musicians, and music producers. We are able to honor and promote the rich sounds and stories of the Caribbean thanks to your support. Together, we can ensure that this rich cultural legacy reaches a wider audience and fosters creativity and connections. While it is important to always purchase music, you should avoid sharing promotional music because doing so denies essential revenue to songwriters, producers, and artists.
