The internationally collaborated soca track Paint the Road is set to be released this Friday 24 November. The much-anticipated single was made by three creative and passionate soca artists who crossed continental and national boundaries to make the song possible.
Ann G is an experienced songstress from Japan with a deep love for Caribbean music, especially soca. She also loves and sings RnB, Dancehall and AfroBeats and has recently released an extended playlist called Soca Magic Riddim. She has competed in the International Soca Monarch before and was a finalist in the 2014 edition.
Leah Sophia is a UK-based soca artist born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago. She is a prolific singer who won the UK Groovy Soca Monarch competition this year with her song Sumbaday. Leah loves to sing Reggae and pop and her Trinidadian native genres, namely Soca and Calypso.
Last but not least is the artist Kulchaman from the Netherlands. He is a well-travelled soca artist whose motto, “Soca to d’world”, rings true owing to his impressive accomplishments. He won the UK Unsigned Soca Award in 2019 and the EUK Soca Monarch Award in 2022.
Paint the Road is a tribute to Trinidad and Tobago’s glorious carnival and mas culture. It celebrates this beautiful season of joy, sharing, and celebration.
