Soca music is a vibrant genre that is at the heart of all Caribbean-styled carnivals worldwide. As with all music genres, people are always interested in the top songs; they seek out a "Top 10" chart. Today, after a brief hiatus, Sokah2Soca is, once again, featuring the current chart. So, for the chart-seekers and for those who love to live in the moment, here are the COTT Soca Top Ten Radio Plays for the week of December 28, 2023–January 3, 2024.
It should be noted, however, please note that this chart does not include YouTube or paid online downloads. This chart simply tracks radio plays in Trinidad and Tobago. As a result, the actual chart may not reflect the most popular Soca songs favored by the public, but songs that radio professionals deem significant enough to play on the radio.
One of the sources of information about the latest trends and popular songs in soca music is the Cott Radio Play chart. The Top 10 is a chart published by the Copyright Organization of Trinidad and Tobago (COTT). COTT is a non-profit organization that represents the interests of composers, authors, and publishers of musical works in Trinidad and Tobago. The organization collects and distributes royalties to its members for the public performance and broadcast of their works, including on radio stations.
The Cott Radio Play chart is based on data provided by a sample of Trinidad and Tobago radio stations that report their weekly airplay to COTT. The chart reflects the total number of plays each song received during the week, and the data is weighted to account for differences in the number of radio stations and their audience sizes.
Since sourcing Soca music is mostly based on YouTube searches and Julien Promos DJ packs, we have included this chart as a public service. However, we don't believe that this chart is a true reflection of the most popular Soca tracks today because the turnover takes too long.
