Now playing

Our musical journey takes us to the Spice Isle where Jab Mas is the carnival craze. Now that does not mean that they don't have what is called "pretty mas", they do, but they have taken Jab Mas to another level. Today we feature a song by Boyzie titled "Confidence". While Jab Mas players are loaded with confidence, this song transcends Jab. This is Groove Soca music with a serious message and it you guessed that it is an inspirational and motivational track that encourages people to believe in themselves then you are on your way... no need to say more, but we will! 
 
The song begins with a strong and upbeat instrumental that immediately captures the listener's attention. The beat is infectious, and it sets the tone for the rest of the song. As the lyrics begin, Boyzie's smooth voice takes over, delivering uplifting and relatable lines. He sings about the struggles and obstacles people face on their journey to success, but he also emphasizes the importance of confidence and self-belief.
 
Another standout feature of "Confidence" is the production. Xpert Productions has created a beat that perfectly complements Boyzie's vocals. This production is catchy and meaningful, with a sound that is both catchy and timeless. 
 
Whether you are or not a fan of Boyzie, you must admit that this song has a smooth feel, smart lyrics, excellent vocals and infectious music production. We like it and think you will enjoy dancing with someone special when the DJ drops this vibe.

It is that time of the year again and if you didn't know we will remind you now... Crop Over Carnival is coming! Yes, it is and when it hits the scene it comes with so much new Bashment Soca and then some. Featured today is a song by Marvay called "Mrs. Most Wanted". That will be the case for Crop Over 2023 and Marvay has a story to tell in the song... we have the song. It is pure musical vibes!
 
Mrs. Most Wanted by Marvay is the ideal song for Crop Over Carnival 2023 in Barbados. This song is a lively and upbeat tune that will get everyone moving and dancing to the beat. It tells the story of a woman who is confident, independent, and highly desired by men. This theme is just right for Crop Over's festive atmosphere, where people come together to celebrate their culture and traditions.
 
Mrs. Most Wanted is an excellent addition to the festival because it celebrates female empowerment and Caribbean music's sweet vibe. It is an ideal example of the kind of music that defines Crop Over, where people come together to celebrate the rich musical heritage of the region.
 
In addition to its musical and cultural significance, Mrs. Most Wanted is also an excellent song to dance to. The lively beat and catchy lyrics make it suitable for Crop Over's carnival atmosphere. People of all ages and backgrounds can come together and enjoy the music, dancing, and festivities that define the festival.
 
Put this song on your summer playlist. This one really hits the musical sweet spot. It celebrates female empowerment, Caribbean music, and festive festival atmosphere. Whether you are a local or a visitor, this song is sure to get you moving and dancing to the island beat. Marvay has always been a favorite of Sokah2Soca and yes, we love the song. Kudos to the Red Boyz and Marvay. We love it and yes, it is recommended.

Today, while listening to Mr. Desmond and Kenny Phillips on Wack Radio, a caller asked about a Black Stalin tribute melody recently played on the station. Mr. Desmond mentioned that the melody was done by Nicholas Brancker; he meant The Nicholas Brancker Band! I did my due diligence and located the tribute video. It is the feature for this post, a tribute to the late Dr. Leroy Caliste, on the 24th of July. September 1941 – sunset on 28th. December 2022.
 
The Black Stalin Tribute by The Nicholas Brancker Band (from Barbados) is a stunning tribute to the legendary Trinidadian calypsonian, Black Stalin. This presentation is a masterpiece of Caribbean music, featuring powerful vocals, intricate instrumentals, and soulful rhythms by the Nicholas Brancker Band. These rhythms transport listeners to the heart of Trinidad's vibrant musical culture from the late Black Stalin. Each track selected for this presentation is expertly crafted. It showcases the incredible talent of the Nicholas Brancker Band and their deep appreciation for Black Stalin's music.
 
The Black Stalin Tribute is a must-listen for anyone who loves Caribbean music or is interested in exploring Trinidad and Tobago's rich musical traditions. It is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest calypsonians of all time and a testament to his enduring power. Highly recommended.
 
I have to admit that the singer, Adrian, was excellent and sounded very much like the late maestro, Black Stalin. This feature is pure excellence and one of the finest Black Stalin tributes that I have seen online. Kudos to The Nicholas Brancker Band.
 
Notes from Nicholas Brancker:
This was the final rehearsal before our first performance after Black Stalin's passing. We had just finished a workshop at UWI for students and decided to document and share this medley with you. This is a tribute to a humble, joyful and committed son of our Caribbean soil. Live on brother!!

Underrated? You would be a fool to join that camp! Unappreciated? Ha, only the uninitiated would go down that path! D'Music Safe and Sound has given the world an acoustic session that will give you a reason to believe. This session will make you believe... you are a late draw, but welcome to the party. If you are not in the mood, you will have no choice but to dance the night away! We will not say more because this acoustic session is 'bun down de place'!
 
But wait, after reading through that paragraph shouldn't you tell people who is the talented artist throwing down the vibe? Well, if you didn't know, you will never forget "Voice"! Yes, he is the Soca Monarch for 2016, 2017, and 2018; he is your International Soca Monarch. This is the other side of the Soca artist. This is the man, the raw, outstanding talent of Aaron 'Voice' St. Louis. Enjoy!
