Soca Music
Definition of Soca Music: Soca is a style of music from Trinidad and Tobago. Soca is a musical development of traditional Trinidadian calypso, through loans from the 1960s onwards from predominantly black popular music.
Many people think that soca music was created by the blending of calypso and soul music. Many people believe this misconception because it is stated that Lord Shorty called soca “soul calypso”. What Lord Shorty meant to say[citation needed] was that soca was the “soul of calypso”, but to make it short he called it “soca”, which blends the first two letters of “SOul” and “CAlypso”. Soca music evolved from a fusion of calypso, cadence, and Indian instruments. (dhantal, tabla, etc).
