Never Wanna See U Cry Overview
In 2009, the Never Wanna See U Cry Riddim became one of the most played soca tracks during Carnival season. This riddim stood out for its bright, calypso-inspired sound and its energy on the dancefloor. It powered many parties and street parades, making it a true Carnival anthem that year. The riddim featured strong performances from three artists: Dale Saunders, Freestyle King, and Shugga Push. Dale Saunders brought his signature style to the song "Never Wanna See U Cry." Saunders is known for his blend of soca and pop, and he later gained international attention with his 2013 single "Catch Your Love."

Shugga Push kept the tempo high with "Back Meh Bumpa," a track that quickly became a favorite at fetes. Compared to other Carnival projects from 2009, the Never Wanna See U Cry Riddim was different. While many riddims used heavy electronic sounds or fast tempos, this one kept close to the roots of calypso. Its melodies and rhythms were simple but catchy, making it easy for everyone to dance along. The studio team played an important role in shaping the sound. Their careful production made sure each song fit together smoothly while giving each artist space to shine. Looking back, this riddim captured the spirit of Carnival 2009 and remains a highlight from that year’s soca music.
