Coca Cola Riddim (2012) – Rama Studios

Lil Bitts’ “Ketchin It” gives the Coca Cola Riddim its first proper spark, and that feels like the right way into Rama Studios’ 2012 soca set. Benjai’s “True Story” keeps the energy bright and conversational, while Umi Marcano’s “Sweetest Wine” leans into the sweeter, more melodic side of the groove; Rama’s production keeps everything moving with a clean, carnival-ready bounce rather than cluttering the rhythm. The lineup is tight — just five cuts — so each voice gets room to breathe, with Screws and Devon Matthews rounding out the spread without breaking the flow. It’s the kind of early-season Trinidad package that makes its point fast, then gets out of the way.
