Tap in. Vibe out. Avoid lengthy conversations. It's Saturday evening and the heat is on in New York City.

This mixtape will set the mood for an exciting evening, regardless of your age. It's steamy, spicy, zessy and full of vibes.
The “Steamy Zess Mix 2025【Leh Meh See Yuh Finger】” is here to set the mood and make your evening one to remember!

We don't intend to be held back; we are here to listen and as the music river flows, we intend to caress the musical flow in style. We are Sokah2Soca!

Our opening statement: Bouyon music is a sonic force—an electrifying fusion of rhythm, chant, and cultural expression that demands movement. Its energy is undeniable, its potential limitless. Despite its infectious grooves and grassroots popularity, Bouyon music has reached a peak—and it's not due to the beat. It’s the lyrics—there are too many songs with explicit content!
Here is what we are dealing with today, what we are hearing all the time: Time and again, we hear Bouyon tracks reduced to vulgar punchlines, fixated on crude references to women’s bodies. It’s become a norm that many accept—even celebrate—in party spaces across the Caribbean. The DJs spin them. The crowds chant them back word for word. But here’s the harsh truth: that same lyrical content that gets a pull-up in the dance won’t get airplay on mainstream radio or international platforms. Playing these sometimes vulgar songs on the radio is clearly impossible and will result in the cancellation of the radio station's licenses!
The role of DJs: Yes, bouyon is the music of the Greater Antilles; we understand that it thrives locally. Yes, the party scene embraces it, and DJs, along with hype men and sound boys, play a crucial role in its success. But success in dance at local fêtes is not the same as cultural sustainability or global resonance. If Bouyon is to transcend beyond Dominica's borders and secure its rightful position alongside Soca on the global stage, it must undergo a lyrical evolution.
Soca serves as an example of what works: Let’s look at Soca’s journey. Calypso’s global appeal waned, and soca rose in its place. But even Soca had to pivot. Despite its popularity, the "jump and wave" era faced significant challenges abroad. What’s selling out shows in Canada, Europe, and North America today? Groove Soca. These artists/songwriters should create songs that tell stories. Clever and engaging lyrical content evokes strong emotions. Producers should create works that explore the shared human experience—not just the celebration, but also the message.
The Role of the Artist/Performer: Artists like Kes the Band didn’t get there by relying on old formulas. They embraced narrative songwriting and emotionally resonant themes while retaining the spirit of the Caribbean. The result? Venues packed like ants in a sugar jar—foreign audiences drawn in by music they can move to and relate to.
Teamwork and the producers: So to Bouyon singers, songwriters, and producers: What do you want your legacy to be? Is it fleeting hype, confined to Carnival and roadside speakers? Or is it something bigger—a cultural movement recognized, respected, and revered around the world?
The answer is clear: the beat is already present. The vibe is unmatched. Now it’s time for the lyrics to match the music’s potential. Clean doesn’t mean boring. Smart doesn’t mean soft. Clever, catchy songwriting will elevate Bouyon into spaces you’ve only dreamed of—radio stations, film soundtracks, and global stages.
A call to action: The question isn’t whether Bouyon can go international. It’s whether its creators are ready to write for that future. Finally, we randomly selected the featured mixtape from YouTube. We chose it because it is a popular mix, and we did not intend to undermine the agents of curation or their ability to select and play music.

This Is What Home Feels Like—Mical Teja’s Soca Ballad Hits Every Trini Abroad in the Heart
in
Blog
June 21, 2025

Warning: You will get a Trini-Tabanca after listening to this song! I consider myself a sucker for songs and music that tug at your heart and make you think of home—and Mical Teja’s latest release, “HOME (Trini 2 De Bone),” is exactly that: it’s a heartbeat, a memory, a flag waving high in the Caribbean breeze, a love letter to the homeland for those living in the diaspora.
Just when you thought the Soca stream out of Trinidad had quieted down, and as we count the days to Carnival 2026, Mical Teja dropped a gem that stopped us mid-scroll while checking for new music releases on YouTube—“Home (Trini 2 De Bone),” a bold, joyful reawakening of one of Trinidad and Tobago’s most revered anthems. In typical Teja style, "Home (Trini 2 De Bone)" is not just a cover but a heartfelt, forward-thinking tribute with a rhythm and message that feels renewed and refreshing. David Rudder’s original feels like a timeless declaration; Teja’s version feels like a rallying cry for a new era—one that honors the past while dancing boldly into the future.
Teja, Tano, and Ian Wiltshire penned this renewal and masterpiece. The track taps into the pulse of homegrown pride while weaving in the legendary spirit of David Rudder’s original “Trini 2 De Bone.” I can hear Rudder and Carl Jacob as I tap the keys for this post! Teja has built a reputation for skillfully repurposing cultural classics, and this release is no exception. Teja's ability to delve into the emotional core of these anthems and revitalize them in today's music landscape is truly remarkable. Our music is in a good place with the exceptional talent and sweet vocals of Mical Teja.
Teja's "Home (Trini 2 De Bone)" is a production that evokes nostalgia while also being bold, as it reinterprets history with a profound respect for the past and an ambition for the future. Sokah2Soca caught this treasure early, spotting it on YouTube a few days after its debut, just as listeners were beginning to wonder what was next from the Trinidad Soca scene. And what a payoff it is.
This song serves as a reminder for all Trinidadians, regardless of their location in the world, to cherish their heritage and, above all, to continue this pride. Trini to de bone, now reimagined as a beautiful, booming echo of “welcome home.”
If you haven’t heard it yet, you know what to do: turn it up, wave your flag, and let the vibes remind you of everything sweet and sacred about T&T.

Cat Sightings Up 300% Since Soca Drop—Coincidence? We Think Not: Call 911 by Lil Rick

Lil Rick's mischievous song, infused with a sweet Bajan twang, is sure to captivate Soca music lovers throughout the Caribbean basin. Call 911. The operating boards are smoking and the whole island now has cat fever. Doctors are referring to the current situation as the first known instance of soca-induced spontaneous combustion; pussy has a way of causing that to happen! If you hear a man hollering in falsetto and clutching his chest, don’t panic—it isn’t a heart attack; it's just Lil Rick's cat mashup that's causing the island to shake rattle and roll to the beat of some really sweet Soca music.
I understand the overuse of the word anthem, and it seems excessive when a song emerges that captivates the listener. This song may just be the one to earn the title of the Kadooment anthem. If you see a bumper causing structural damage, please dial 9-1-1 and ask for backup, snacks, and a towel. While a few meows may contribute to the situation, most men tend to lose their composure when they witness a distressed cat!
You have to be strong to deal with this pussy escapade. A bumper hit is definitely part of the problem, and an injured cat could lead to either a life-changing moment and lasting friendship or a scratching and clawing episode that will be memorable for a long time. Regardless of the situation, Lil Rick will guide you along the path to success; just remember the do's and don'ts as they relate to properly caring for that pussy... could be a life-changing moment! Just a reminder: please listen responsibly, wink, wink!
