Sorry i doh consider it folk music, is a good pace Soca for me (grind it) I gettin too old for de fast paced Soca of nowadays. Didn't realize Ja had such quality Soca, I know of Byron Lee (R.I.P) but not many more. Will have to look into it more.

Beat sounds a little like Tek Way Yuhself. But truth is soca exist naturally all over the Caribbean and the wider region, mix African and European cultures in a similar way and you have to expect a similar result culturally, Soca, Zuk, Samba, Mento...

rightly so..

Having beats similar to others cultures is undoubtly bringin we together and this feels a more of ragga soca feel 2 it. The producer shows his inspiration by the reggae vibes thus still keepin it bubbly like the dancehall scene like it.

In the end its all the same ting ... we all jammin wid each other ..some sweet some slack n so forth..



ps: if this was 2 b released on the rest of the soca scene then alot of those songs wudnt make it due 2 its nature.

Exactly, WE before ME.

Coconut tree riddim is 110bpm and National Pride is 109bpm...(1bpm difference) so dont get fooled there's not much of a different

Sorry it was more of the speed of the riddim that "Plenty Gal" is on.

My sentiments exactly, I can only go so fast nowadays.

And you would be right about that. I don't think these Ja. guys ever sit down and say "I'm gonna produce a soca chune", (not talking bout Fab5 or BL&D) if they did it would sound more like the stuff coming out of the soca islands.

Very true, as I said, you take the same African cultures and mix them with the same European cultures in a similar environment and you get a similar result. Sort of like identical twin men marry and have children from identical twin women. The kids technically aren't brothers and sisters, but basicly they are.

Hopefully this will help all of us understand that Soca don't belong to any one island but belongs to all of we.
