For those who don't know, after you finish listening to this mixtape, you will understand why people who experience it proclaim that Trini Christmas is the best. The food is exceptional, and let me assure you, there is an abundance of it.

So much Soca, but not enough Chutney Soca! Well, let's do something different today. For this post, we won't be following the Soca or Chutney Soca route. What then? How about we post a traditional Chutney song? Let's do that and see what kind of response we get from our readers! Trinidad and Tobago boasts a multicultural society and abundant talent. In light of this, we venture south of the Caroni River and present a track named "Japti," featuring the vocals of Hemlatha Dindial. Rishi Gayadeen, known for his talent and reputation, arranged, mixed, and produced the song. We believe the energy of this track will ignite your soul. Don't behave confused; just get up and dance your arse off. 
 
Now, for those who enjoy Soca and Chutney, we present a traditional chutney song. Although most Soca fans are unfamiliar with it, its rhythm and joy will make them love it. The vibe you hear comes from the astute hands of Raj Singh, whose talent on the dholak and dhantal shines throughout this song. You can compare his part in this song to the "engine room" for steelbands.
 
Hemlatha Dindial's voice reverberates throughout the land, summoning the masses to groove to the exceptional production work by Rishi Gayadeen. If you don't know Trinidad and Tobago's culture, don't think this is eastern music. Hell no, it's from the southernmost Caribbean island. Yes, it is sweet music from the shores of Trinidad and Tobago. 
 
So there you have it, a traditional chutney song brought to you by Sokah2Soca in collaboration with Island Vybe Philly Radio. We are here to bring you all the music of our homeland. So jump aboard and vibe with us. Press play, turn up the volume, and let the music of Hemlatha Dindial take you deep South into the Caribbean, into the vibe of the people of Trinidad and Tobago.

While we applaud the value of Lord Blakie's Calypso, we would like to take this opportunity to remind people that each of us can and should use independent thought and not fall prey to 'false prophets' preaching a way forward when they are breaking the rules. Instead of making excuses for them, we should confront their bigotry when it is evident and unmistakable.
 
It was indeed a pleasure listening to this old-school style of Calypso and the singing style of one of our finest Calypsonians. At Sokah2Soca, we celebrate this classic calypso infused with a catchy melody, witty lyrical content, and music that you can dance to, unlike many of the calypsos sung today. Let me conclude with the following: many calypsos made fun of the small islanders and especially the Grenadians, but without the Grenadians, Trinidad Calypso would not be what it is today. We are thankful to the country and people of Grenada for their development of Trinidad's Calypso culture.
 
From Danny Fitzgerald's YouTube Post:
Early '60s calypso from Carlton Joseph, a.k.a. Lord Blakie. The Warlord wanted to send migrants back to Grenada, including "The Mighty Sparrow!"

She continues to dominate the music scene with hit after hit, and today we present "Bartender," the next big thing from Nadia Batson. Nadie's Market is full of surprises, and today's music release from this vivacious and sensational singer is going to have you dancing all night long. Written by the lady herself, Nadie delivers vocals that perfectly match her skillful songwriting. Bartender is our pick from the album, "Flashing Lights Riddim."
 
The vocals are sweet, the songwriting talent obvious, but the music delivers the vibe that makes everything fall into place. The album, and especially this song, produced by the talented Papo, is a testament to the fact that the music continues to rise, making "Bartender" one of the standout tracks for Carnival 2025. Stay tuned, as Nadie is poised to dominate Carnival 2025!
 
Nadie continues to impress us with every new song she delivers to the Soca community, consistently giving us music that we fall in love with and have on replay. "Bartender" delivers what so many fête fanatics (male and female) experience and dream up as they party all night. Who is that bartender? And yes, fantasies abound all night long. 
 
We can't wait to see Nadie perform and deliver on the promise of feting 'iz we ting' and to see her powerhouse performances enlarge her fan base across the Caribbean and North America. We at Sokah2Soca and Island Vybe Radio are excited to share and celebrate Nadie's talent with you and the world. Now turn up the volume and let Nadie take you on a magical journey with "Bartender." To conclude, please share this post with your social media peers, and don't forget to leave a comment about this music release.
