Carnival, Vol. 2: Memoirs of an Immigrant

Carnival, Vol. 2: Memoirs of an Immigrant (2007) more music like this

by Wyclef Jean

Ten years after his 1997 solo debut, The Carnival, former Fugee, "Hips Don't Lie" producer, and globetrotting activist Wyclef Jean presents the sequel, subtitled Memoirs of an Immigrant and meaning it. There's a star-studded guest list, but Carnival, Vol. 2 is composed from Wyclef's personal experience and filled with his commentary on 2007's ...

Soca Thriller

Soca Thriller (2000) more music like this

by Byron Lee & The Dragonaires

While Byron Lee & the Dragonaires have been on top of the soca scene for decades, Soca Thriller, their 20th album, supplies mostly pedestrian soca tunes, full of fun and energy but little else that's memorable. The performances on the 15-song CD don't stand out a lot, the bouncy rhythms just blend together, until the last six tunes, which shine ...

Klassic Kitchener, Vol. 3 (1994) more music like this

by Lord Kitchener

Ironically, this set of early soca is the best of the Kitchener collections so far. First, it has all his major songs of the 1970s, including the great "Pan in A Minor." Second it shows him contriving, like no other calypsonian of his generation, to move into the new idiom while keeping the freshness and variety of the old one. As a bonus, it's ...

Rough Guide to Calypso & Soca

Rough Guide to Calypso & Soca (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Another volume of the usually excellent Rough Guide to World Music series, this collection presents the traditional music of the Caribbean, focusing on calypso and soca. Also presented is a more modern form -- rapso -- which combines the sound of the islands with a club-oriented heavy beat. This is an entertaining and educational compilation. ...

Soca Gold 1999 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Since 1977, the Soca Gold series spread the urge for an instantaneous part world-wide, and Soca Gold 99 ups it to another level, offering everything from ragga soca, chutney soca and pure, "jump up," soul calypso. From the ingenious, bass-driven Celine Dion cover, "Titanic," to the latin-flavored, "Calor," to the just plain wicked "Up Under Me," ...

Jamaica Ska & Other Jamaican Party Anthems (2004) more music like this

by Byron Lee & the Dragonaires

This double-CD set is a godsend for anyone curious about the incredibly prolific Byron Lee and his erstwhile Dragonaires. Prior to the arrival of Jamaica Ska & Other Jamaican Party Anthems, poor Byron's catalog was littered with late-period soca and smooth reggae collections with the occasional poorly packaged live collection of older tunes ...

Following up their London Is the Place for Me compilation from 2002, the Damon Albarn-related label Honest Jons unleashes another set of hot carnival music, this time including present-day artists who are no strangers to powerful modern beats and studio tricks.

Soca Carnival 94 (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is an obvious, but nifty, idea. Having a bunch of the carnival competition songs for one year on one CD gives a perspective you don't get from any other kind of collection. It also introduces artists one doesn't necessarily come across. For the record, the best cuts here are by Colin Lucas, Black Stalin and Drupatee. John Storm Roberts, ...

Soca Gold 2004 (2004) more music like this

by Various Artists

Just like its cousin dancehall, soca went through an exciting period in 2004. Although the genre is notorious for its slow evolvement, it has made some attempts to stay hip with the street, making it not just carnival party music but also something the youth can get jiggy with. It's exciting to hear the slight hip-hop production touches on the ...

Any Minute Now (1999) more music like this

by Machel Montano & Xtatik

As part of soca music's young vanguard, Machel Montano has helped change the sound of a genre that has basically remained unchanged for the last 40 years. By adding dancehall influences along with a hip and sophisticated sensibility, this young singer has rejuvenated soca, prompting the music which was once regulated to Carnival time, to be played ...

Setting the tone for uninhibited revelry with "Take Ya Clothes Off," the disc builds in excitement, ...
