Soca music has so many sides. Power Soca, Groove Soca and a bunch of sub-genres for your listening pleasure. Today we feature the latest song from the artist Hey Choppi. After listening to this song, we added a Sokah2Soca sub-genre to the Groove Soca category. Wait for it, "Fall in Love Soca"! Just listen to the song and tell us if Choppi strikes any love chords that make you want to... ooh la la!
 
About the Artist:
Born and raised in the small town of Arima, Trinidad and Tobago, Sean Padmore aka “Hey Choppi” is a multi-talented artist, with a prolific work ethic. His music is as much a blend of genres as his country is a blend of cultures, fusing hip-hop, pop, reggae and Soca. It's a sound that the international market can’t get enough of, illustrated by artists like Koffee & Burna Boy.
 
In 2018, he stepped out as a solo artist under his own independent production label “Alienation Muzik” working alongside top producers like 1stKlase and Precision Productions. Choppi is building his solo career from a strategized blueprint on non-stop dedication.
 
This drive has attracted opportunities to work with big names such as Major Lazer, Rock City, Aaron Fresh, Eva Shaw, Romeo Miller, and Showtek to name a few. In March 2018, Choppi released his first single “Anchor”, a rhythmic blend of pop and Soca sampling Machel Montano’s "Fast-Wine". His latest single “Captain” became one of the top hits of the 2020 Trinidad Carnival season. That song is just the tip of the iceberg for what’s to come.

The twin island republic of Trinidad and Tobago is a land of talented people. Our musical ambassadors continue to give us so much that sometimes I think we are not deserving of the bounty we have been given. Our culture leads the way and is emulated in the Caribbean and North America. Yes, we have talent to spare! 
 
Talking about talent, how about doing something different today? What do you think of featuring Olatunji's Engine Room on the violin and steelpan? Yes, we have it, and today you can enjoy it with your peers. Share the post; this is just musical niceness!
