Soca Gold 2009 Features Essential Tracks of Carnivals throughout the Caribbean and the World

The Soca Gold 2009 (VP Records) compilation, which will be released next week, is jam-packed with enduring classics and massive hits determined by the carnival competitions. Last year’s compilation debuted atop the U.S. Billboard Reggae Chart for more than three weeks.

Soca Gold 2009 compilation features summer scorching songs by the ‘People’s Monarch & Road March King of Barbados’ Edwin Yearwood, the ‘Road March King’ and ‘Soca Monarch Queen of St. Vincent’ Skinny Fabulous and Zoelah, this year’s ‘Chutney Soca Monarch King of Trinidad’ Kenneth Salick and the all-time ‘Raga Soca King of Trinidad’ Bunji Garlin with the ‘King of the Dancehall’ Beenie Man. It also includes bass bumping, party-ready tracks from Patrice Roberts, Roy Cape, Peter Ram and the ’Top Caribbean Female Soca Icon’ Destra Garcia.
