AFTER LIFE RIDDIM (SOCA) – TRAVIS WORLD MUSIC 2019
After Life Overview
In 2019, the soca scene was full of excitement and energy, especially during Carnival time. The After Life Riddim was one of the island beats that brought extra life to the road. This riddim came from the creative minds in Trinidad and Tobago, where soca music is a big part of the culture. Machel Montano, often called the “King of Soca,” added his voice with the song "Talking That Talk." Montano is known for his powerful stage presence and has won the International Soca Monarch title several times. His songs are always favorites during Carnival. Lyrikal joined the riddim with "Over And Over." Lyrikal, born in Trinidad and based in New York, is known for his smooth vocals and catchy melodies. He often brings a romantic style to his music, which fits well with the After Life Riddim’s vibe. 5 Star Akil delivered "Love Potion" on the same riddim. He is popular for his energetic performances and hits like "Different Me." Akil’s music often gets the crowd moving at parties and on Carnival trucks. The duo Christo & Stig Da Artist offered "Hotter Than Them." Both artists are known for their contributions to the soca scene, bringing fresh voices and new energy to the genre. The After Life Riddim became a soundtrack for Carnival 2019, filling the streets with joyful rhythms. These songs helped make that year’s festival unforgettable, showing how soca continues to unite and inspire people across the islands.
