Calling all masqueraders, fete-goers, and Soca enthusiasts! This year's Carnival soundtrack boasts a fiery new anthem that'll have you leaping off the streets and straight into euphoria – Nailah Blackman's and Pumpa's electrifying collaboration, "Born To Fly."
Hailing from Trinidad and Tobago's sun-kissed shores and Grenada's vibrant pulse, this duo delivers a sonic cocktail that explodes with the very essence of Carnival. Forget your worries, and shed your inhibitions, because "Born To Fly" is your permission to jump, scream, and lose yourself in the intoxicating rhythm of Soca.
The lyrics paint a vivid picture – bodies pulsing, feet pounding the pavement, spirits soaring with every infectious beat. It's the release you crave, the uninhibited joy that erupts when Carnival sets fire to the streets. Nailah's sultry, siren-like vocals weave through the melody, her sweetness adding a touch of flirty charm. Then Pumpa enters with a raspy roar, his powerful voice injecting raw energy into the mix, mirroring the unbridled revelry of the fete.
This isn't just a song; it's an experience. Marvelus and Anson Pro, the production mastermind behind the track, have conjured a soundscape that transports you to the heart of the Carnival frenzy. The music builds, pulsates, and explodes with an unrelenting force, mimicking the exhilarating feeling of literally being "Born To Fly."
And let's not forget the vocal magic that happens when Nailah and Pumpa join forces. Their contrasting styles – Nailah's playful sensuality juxtaposed with Pumpa's electrifying grit – create a dynamic tension that keeps you hooked from the first beat to the last. It's like watching two champion athletes spar, each pushing the boundaries of expression while complementing each other perfectly.
"Born To Fly" is more than just a Soca song; it's a declaration of freedom, a celebration of life, and an invitation to join the most vibrant party on Earth. So crank up the volume, grab your feathers, and prepare to take flight. This year, Carnival isn't just about the streets; it's about soaring to new heights of joy, fueled by the intoxicating power of "Born To Fly."
Are you ready to join the revolution? Get ready to #BornToFly!

The song revolves around a relatable party scenario: a guy falls under the spell of a beautiful woman and gets a little carried away with his "whining" (Soca dancing). The lyrics, penned by Darryl Gervais and Kit Israel, are lighthearted and witty, perfectly capturing the playful innocence of the situation. "I did not mean to whine on the girl like that. I didn't mean it," he pleads, but the playful tone suggests he secretly enjoyed himself.
But "Ah Didn't Mean It" isn't just about the lyrics. The musical craftsmanship is equally impressive. Rebel Muzik and Kyle Peters lay down a foundation of solid bass and groovy guitar work, creating a slow-paced Soca rhythm that's perfect for both sweet whining and serious dancing. The production is smooth and polished, letting the melody shine through without overwhelming the catchy beat.
This song is pure dancefloor groove energy. It's impossible not to move your feet to the infectious rhythm and Ravi B's smooth vocals. The vibe is refreshing and undeniably fun, making it a perfect addition to any Soca playlist.
Take note of the following from the song:
- Playful lyrics: The song's relatable theme and charmingly apologetic tone are sure to resonate with listeners.
- Solid production: Rebel Muzik and Kyle Peters deliver a masterclass in Soca production, with a groove that's both laid-back and danceable.

- Refreshing vibe: "Ah Didn't Mean It" is a breath of fresh air in the Soca scene, offering a fun and lighthearted alternative to the genre's usual energetic anthems.
Ravi B's "Ah Didn't Mean It" is a delightful Soca gem. With its smooth vocals, playful lyrics, and infectious groove, the song is sure to put a smile on your face and get your feet moving. Whether you're a seasoned Soca enthusiast or just looking for some fun summertime vibes, this track is definitely worth a spin.

"Hurricane" is the latest Power Soca anthem by Lyrical and Skinny Fabulous, two very popular Soca artists in the Caribbean. Skinny Fabulous, who is well known for his energetic and catchy lyrics, wrote the song, and it was produced by DJ Desktop, who intends to carve out a name for himself in the business of Soca.
Peter "Wildfire" Noel, out of New York City, conducted the vocal sessions for this production. Parry Jack, one of the best out of Saint Vincent, mixed the track and gave it a crisp and powerful power-soca sound. Beatz added some extra flair and spice to the song, making it sound like a treat for the Road-March title.
`Hurricane` is a song that celebrates the spirit and culture of carnival and aims to claim the coveted Road March title, which is awarded to the most played song during the parade of the bands on Carnival Monday and Tuesday. We recommend this song. Power to the people!

"Lorraine doh cry ah leaving; Ah cyah miss dis jammin'" are two lines from the chorus to one of the most popular songs for Carnival in Trinidad. It was sung by Calypsonian Explainer back in 1982. That was over 40 years ago, and today we are getting ready to "Runaway" from the cold again, but this time with Mical Teja telling the story.
Runaway by Mical Teja is a catchy and upbeat song that showcases the artist's versatility and talent. The song was written by Mical Teja and Tano, and they also produced the track along with Mical Teja. The song features smooth guitar and bass lines by Kyle Peters and harmonious background vocals by Jerry-Lee David and Luna. The song is mixed and mastered by Kevin 'Vexmony' Beharry, who gives it a polished and professional sound.
The song tells the story of a man who wants to escape with his lover from the cold and hectic city life and find a warm and peaceful place where they can be free and happy. The lyrics are simple but effective, conveying the emotions and desires of the protagonist. The chorus is catchy and memorable, with the repeated line "I need a little runaway" expressing the main theme of the song.
The song is a fusion of soca and pop, with influences from Caribbean and Latin music. The song has a lively and energetic vibe, with a fast tempo and a danceable rhythm. The song is suitable for parties, clubs, and festivals, as well as for casual listening. The song showcases Mical Teja's vocal range and style, as he sings with passion and flair. The song also demonstrates his skills as a songwriter and producer, as he creates a unique and original sound that stands out from the crowd.
Runaway by Mical Teja is a song that will make you want to dance, sing, and escape with your loved one. It is a song that celebrates love, freedom, and happiness. It is a song that you will want to listen to over and over again.
