The music video opens with urgency: a phone call pleading to stop a wedding to a “money man from Sando,” and the promise of intervention via the last train. What follows is lyrical magic and the unraveling of late-night calls, emotional entanglements, and the painful clarity that love—however passionate—sometimes needs to end. Acting at the right time can make a significant difference. The final train delivers a powerful truth: "Nobody wins" in a relationship built on longing and compromise. 

 

Is he going to stop the marriage? Well, as the video unfolds, we see the bride still reaching out, even on her wedding day, torn between duty and desire. Teja’s character boards the symbolic last train, heading toward a moment of reckoning. It’s a story of love interrupted, of choosing self-respect over romantic rescue, and of using music to revisit a Trinidadian past that still lives in our bones.   To be honest, this narrative is about a woman who is caught between two men, a provider and a lover. The lover, who is Teja, knows three things: he can't give her the life she wants, he knows how to make her feel good and loved, and finally, he is the Horner man!

 

Give credit to the video production team and the actors involved in making this video and storytelling imagery possible. The images, clothing, and old-school look are just wonderful. We applaud Twin Island Company for a job well done!

 

The story is a masterclass in songwriting. The story draws you into this love story—where cultural memory meets emotional truth. Teja doesn’t just sing; he stages a drama that feels personal, political, and poetic. For Sokah2Soca, the music is the kind of artistry we celebrate: clever, rooted, and emotionally resonant.

 

Now, after you listen to the song and watch the video, let’s talk: Did the train ?  ever run through your childhood too?

 

The remix version of “Take Me As I Am,” created by V’ghn and Trilla-G, focuses on self-acceptance and is infused with the high-energy pulse of Dominican Bouyon. The hook is not just simple; it becomes an anthem—“take me as I am, don’t try to fix me”—but the message is fierce: not all change is good, and love shouldn’t require compromise.

 

As mentioned above, at its core, “Take Me As I Am” is a declaration of radical self-acceptance. The artists leave no doubts about their feelings as they joyfully sing,

“Take me as I am; don’t try to fix me.” 

This isn’t just a catchy hook; many guys praise the lines and sigh, saying it’s about time someone expressed this in a song—it represents a refusal to compromise one’s identity, even for love. The lyrics will become the 'man-anthem' for carnival 2026 as they push back against the pressure to change for others, reminding listeners that authenticity is non-negotiable.

 

V'ghn, far from being an autotuned singer, possesses a unique vocal style. His soulful delivery meets Trilla-G’s unapologetic bounce, creating a cross-island fusion that’s both catchy and culturally charged. This song is a reminder that Caribbean music isn’t just about rhythm—it’s about resistance, identity, and pride. This remix doesn’t ask for approval. It dares you to accept it, regardless of their faults.

 

Now that you came this far, we cordially invite your public commentary—don't hold back, OK? Who do we change for, and why?

 

The YouTube player included for this post features the remix version and the original version done solo by Trilla-G. Enjoy!

 

I understand that this song might surprise you and you might not immediately connect with it. However, you will quickly understand that Patrice is creating a song that you will continue to listen to long after the carnival concludes. That is the magic of this music release. And yes, she is back with a tender twist for Soca 2026, teaming up with IzyBeats to deliver “Mudda Dey”—a smooth, melodic ode to love and the woman behind the man. This music release isn’t just a love song; it’s a celebration of gratitude, lineage, and the quiet power of a mother’s influence.

 

Produced by the ever-versatile IzyBeats, with executive production by Mark Cyrus (Masterroom Music) and Dwight Yearwood (Riddimstream), “Mudda Dey” glides on a groove that’s as warm as it is catchy. The songwriting team—Andron Cross, Krystian Mark, Jasper Alexander, Kirk Douglas, and Joshua Lewis—crafts a narrative that’s both playful and profound.

 

At its heart, “Mudda Dey” is Patrice’s way of saying, “Thank you, Mama.” It's not her own but rather his. The man who captivated her completely did so with such elegance and charisma that she is repeatedly prompted to ask, “Whey Yuh Mudda Dey?” Because only a queen could raise a man like this.

 

With lyrics like “Boy, you are a blessing,” Patrice leans into vulnerability, awe, and full-bodied affection. She’s not just smitten—she’s ready to offer him everything. And in doing so, she elevates the often-overlooked role of the mother-in-law-to-be, turning her into a heroine of the love story.

 

The result is a song for the lovers, the mamas, and anyone who’s ever looked at their partner and thought, “Your mother really did something right.” It’s classy, catchy, and full of Caribbean heart.
