When you’ve reached the top, your journey deserves celebration, not only for your accomplishments but for becoming one of the “most in-demand” artists in the Soca music scene. Today, we’re talking about none other than Ian “Bunji Garlin” Alvarez—a talent who commands respect and admiration worldwide. DJ Warrior and DJ Black Warrior recognize the Viking of Soca’s legendary impact, honoring him with a dynamic mix that captures his essence. With the support of Nikki G, “The Voice,” we’re thrilled to feature this powerhouse collaboration on Sokah2Soca, saluting the DJs and the music that moves us all.
From Nikki G Media:
American-born brothers DJ Warrior and DJ Black Warrior bring a deep, vibrant Caribbean influence on their work, reflecting their rich heritage from Trinidad, Grenada, Barbados, and Panama. Their uncle, Terrance Collymore, was a member of the legendary band “Wildfire,” inspiring the brothers’ connection to music from a young age.
The younger of the two, DJ Warrior, curated a special project celebrating the music of iconic Trinidadian Soca star Bunji Garlin, from Trinidad and Tobago. Collaborating with Nikki G, known as “The Voice,” DJ Warrior created a mega-mix of Bunji Garlin’s greatest hits through the years, including the Soul Train Award-winning anthem “Differentology.”
Who is Bunji Garlin?
Bunji Garlin, aka "The Viking of Soca," is a unique talent in the business of Soca music. Bunji Garlin, also known as "The Viking of Soca," is undeniably the leader of Ragga Soca and has established himself as an internationally recognized Soca talent from Trinidad and Tobago. Born Ian Antonio Alvarez on July 14, 1978, a son of Cumuto on the outskirts of the town of Arima (his hometown), Bunji, as he is affectionately known, is unparalleled in his contributions to Soca, although his wife, Fayann Lyons Alvarez, may have something to say about that. His consistency is evident in his multiple Soca Monarch titles for Ragga Soca, People's Choice Champion, and template Soca music.
One of his proudest moments in the Soca music industry came when he won the "Best International Performance" category award at the Soul Train Awards. In 2013, Sheriff Music produced his widely popular song "Differentology," which won the award at the award show in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Fans recognize this song for its "Ready For Di Road" hook.
Whether you're a long-time fan or new to his music, Bunji Garlin's contributions to Soca music are undeniable. His passion, energy, and innovative approach make him a true legend in the world of Soca. The mixtape contribution from DJ Young Warrior and DJ Black Warrior today clearly demonstrates Bunji's musical talent and dominance in the competitive world of Soca music.

Nailah Blackman's talent and ability to capture exceptional moments continue to impress. In this case, she has gone back to the future from a cultural point of view. This is not a Soca track, but rather a track reminiscent of her ancestral homeland, featuring Afrobeat music specifically for her fans. Nailah has once again shown her incredible versatility as an artist with her latest release, "Miss Continental," in collaboration with DJ Obi. Fresh from her inspiring trip to Nigeria, Nailah has infused this Afrobeat track with her signature style, creating a fusion that celebrates both African and Caribbean musical traditions.
The music creation is on point! Produced by Joshua Chuks Osajiokwoeh (Jaypizzle) and written by Mark Abraham Owoicho (Mark Owi), Okpe Luke Ogabor, Anson Soverall (Anson Pro), and Nailah herself, "Miss Continental" is a vibrant celebration of cultural exchange and musical evolution. The song’s infectious rhythms and catchy hooks are sure to resonate with fans across the globe, showcasing Nailah's talent for blending genres.
Her grandfather, Lord Shorty (Ras Shorty I), the creator of Soca, was the inspiration that led Nailah to the world of Soca music; it is indeed a part of a family tradition. However, Nailah's creative spirit has led her on a global musical journey. While Nailah’s heart remains deeply rooted in soca music, her exploration of afrobeats highlights her growth and adaptability as an international artist. "Miss Continental" is more than just a song; it's a testament to her commitment to exploring new sounds and pushing musical boundaries.
Growth is always the key to success in the competitive world of music. As she continues to evolve and experiment with different genres, Nailah Blackman proves that music truly knows no borders. Dive into "Miss Continental" and experience the exciting vibe that Afrobeats bring with a tinge of Soca fusion, brought to life by one of the Caribbean’s brightest stars.
