Socapella Riddim – Black Spaniard Productions

Four voices carry Socapella Riddim, and that lean track count gives Black Spaniard Productions room to let each cut hit clean and direct: Chewalee’s “Fetish, ” Mack’s “Live and Direct, ” Ricardo Drue and Hypa 4000 teaming up on “Take A Drink, ” and Soca Doctor’s “Could Never Dey. ” The set leans into bright, jump-up soca energy with a crisp, percussive feel that suits the carnival season, while “Take A Drink” is the obvious hook for its pair-up of two well-known names and the easy party-ready bounce they bring to the riddim. Released in 2018 and clocking in at four tracks, Socapella keeps the focus tight, with no filler in sight, just a compact slice of Black Spaniard’s soca sound built for the road.
