This post first appeared on Sokah2Soca, where Caribbean music meets wit, rhythm, and real talk. Island Vybe Radio spins the tunes—we decode the culture.
If your heart is not strong, don't watch this video visualizer! You have been warned. We’re rewinding to remind you: Carnival 2026 didn’t start with a whisper—it’s been Tun Up since 2025! Who better to spearhead the initiative than the undisputed Queen of Soca, Patrice Roberts?
This visualizer for “Tun Up” (Pineapple Riddim) is pure adrenaline—high-energy, high-confidence, and high-heat. Patrice is not merely dancing—she is commanding every beat, every curve, and every droplet of water cascading down her ultra-seductive bodysuit. The tease? Intentional. The control? Flawless. The vibe? 100% Carnival.
“Turn up your body!” isn’t just a lyric—it’s a call to action. This serves as a reminder of our culture, rhythm, and women. And Patrice? She’s not teasing—she’s teaching. This is how we move. This is how we celebrate.
So if you thought the heat just started, oh hell no. This is a continuation, a buildup, a warning shot for what’s coming. Carnival 2025 was the teaser, and planning for Carnival 2026 is currently underway; this post serves as your official reminder. Darn, Patrice... keep doing your sexy thing; we will showcase all of it!
You’re welcome. Now go tune up... Ahem, Tun Up!
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. You can find all of our posts online on social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify, and SoundCloud. We recommend that you explore your favorite content on FeedSpot/RSS Feed, Threads, Bluesky, and Twitter/X, including email subscriptions. Thank you in advance.
