As we enter the month of October, new Soca music for Trinidad & Tobago's Carnival 2024 is being released on a daily basis via Julianspromos and other distribution sites online. YouTube is one of the prime sites to seek out the new music or, just come to Sokah2Soca to get your fill. There was a time when new Soca could only be heard for the upcoming carnival season but that has changed and Soca is released all year now. Having said that, the upcoming deluge of new Soca will be called Carnival Soca for this post. We invite you to take that journey of sampling all the new music releases with us. 

 

Trinidad and Tobago Carnival is one of the most anticipated events of the year, and soca music is an essential part of the celebration. Soca is a genre of music that originated in Trinidad and Tobago in the 1970s, and it is characterized by its upbeat tempo, catchy melodies, and energetic rhythms. Carnival Soca is music that is specifically written and performed for the Carnival season (take it easy, it's just Soca Music).

The upcoming Soca music releases for Trinidad and Tobago Carnival 2024 are already generating a lot of excitement. Here are a few of the most anticipated releases:

 

  • "Market" by Nadia Batson: Batson is one of the most popular soca artists in Trinidad and Tobago, and her upcoming single "Market" is sure to be a hit. The song has a catchy melody and a danceable beat, and it is sure to get people moving on Carnival Day.
  • "Stick On" by Lyrikal: Lyrikal is another popular soca artist, and his upcoming single "Stick On" is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. The song has a fast tempo and an energetic vibe, and it is sure to get people dancing and singing along.
  • "Concentrate" by Farmer Nappy: Farmer Nappy is a Soca legend, and his upcoming single "Concentrate" is sure to be a fan favorite. The song has a mellower vibe than some of the other soca releases for Carnival 2024, but it is still very danceable and enjoyable.
  • "Stay With Me" by Zan & Krystal Kyri Ribeiro: Zan and Krystal Kyri Ribeiro are a new Soca duo, and their upcoming single "Stay With Me" is sure to put them on the map. The song is a romantic ballad with a beautiful melody and heartfelt lyrics. It is sure to be a hit with couples and singles alike.
  • "Not Right Now" by Kernal Roberts: Kernal Roberts is a Soca veteran, and his upcoming single "Not Right Now" is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. The song has a smooth tempo and an energetic vibe, and it is sure to get people dancing and singing along.

 

These are just a few of the many upcoming soca music releases for Trinidad and Tobago Carnival 2024. With so much great music to choose from, it is sure to be an unforgettable Carnival season.

In addition to the artists mentioned above, many other popular Soca artists are expected to release new music for Carnival 2024. These include (to name a few):

Soca music is more than just a soundtrack to the celebration. It is also a way for people to express their culture and heritage. Soca songs often celebrate Trinidadian and Tobagonian culture, and they can be about a variety of topics, such as love, social issues, and the Carnival experience itself.

DJ Jel is one of Sokah2Soca's favorite Soca music DJs. Can you believe that we are already talking about Miami Carnival? Damn, this year was a blur and here we are again and yes, DJ Jel has done it again with the delivery of this Soca banger compilation. For this post, we present DJ Jel's Miami Carnival Charge 2023 Mixtape. 
 
This is an excellent mixtape for anyone who loves Soca music. It features a mix of recently released Soca songs, all of which are sure to get you moving. The album is well-produced and DJ Jel does a great job of keeping the energy high throughout.
 
If you're looking for a Soca album to get you in the mood for the Miami Carnival, then I highly recommend Miami Carnival Charge 2023 Mixtape by DJ Jel.

For the love of my country... this is such a beautiful song by Ray Holman. This was posted on Sokah2Soca previously and for this Sunday it just feels right to share it with my islandvybe family. Regardless of what island you come from just take in this song; Trinis you have permission to cry!
 
If you are living away from Trinidad and Tobago and still yearn for the life you left behind, we are about to make you cry and reminisce about the "Ole Time Days". I just gave you a cheap plug to remember Nappy Myers' song, which tends to make emigrated Trinis cry. Today is a new day and with it comes another reason to shed a tear for the life you left behind. Today we present you with a tearjerker written and sung by legendary steelpan musician, composer, and arranger Ray Holman; the song is entitled, "Sweet Island Memories". This nostalgic song, along with nine other tracks, comes from the album "First Love."
 
Our goal is to bring back sweet memories. It is not meant to cause sadness but to help you recall all the pleasant memories of growing up in Trinidad and Tobago. This feeling and memory will be better appreciated by those who grew up in Trinidad during the '60s, '70s, and '80s. Times have changed and the fun of hanging out with friends in any neighborhood is now fraught with unknown danger lurking and waiting to create sadness. This song, presented here today, will surely make you smile and even shed a tear.  Definitely one to repeat. Enjoy!
 
Let's take our culture places:
Our goal is to help promote the music and culture of our Caribbean artists. The singers, musicians, producers, songwriters, and all those involved in the creative process. Together we can promote and spread the culture by sharing these posts on all social media platforms.
