MONKEY BAR RIDDIM (SOCA) – KAY FRASS PRODUCTION – 2019
Monkey Bar Overview
Monkey Bar Riddim made a big impact in 2019’s soca scene. The riddim’s energetic sound kept masqueraders moving all day during the parades. The architecture of the sound stood out, with sharp drums and lively brass that gave the music its jump-up power. The recording process brought together top artists who each added their own style, making the riddim both strong and flexible for the carnival crowd. Lil Jelo’s “Jab Duties” brought a raw, commanding vocal to the riddim. Lil Jelo is known for his energetic performances, and here he pushed the energy even higher. Buckwild’s “Doh Watch” added a catchy hook, showing the artist’s skill for making songs that stick in your head. Smallkid, with “We Dey,” gave the riddim a chant-like feel, perfect for big groups on the road. Luni Spark & Electrify, who have worked together for years and are known for their teamwork on the soca circuit, brought “Doh Play Dat” to the mix. Their back-and-forth vocals added a playful, competitive edge. Mad Busy’s “Come For Jab” rounded out the lineup, giving the riddim an extra layer of hype that matched the energy of the season. The producer behind Monkey Bar Riddim focused on making every track blend smoothly, so each artist’s song felt connected but unique. The fete mix from 2019 is still remembered for its link to the excitement of that year’s parades, keeping the spirit of mas alive.
