There’s a few dope lives with Soca but all these Carnival chasers are tweeting about Verzuz with Jeezy and Gucci Mane.
Btw while it may seem like shade, that’s not my intention bc truthfully, there’s ah bunch of DJs that are watching the Verzuz as well. It’s more of an observation...
So many of us who love Soca and say they want to see it become a recognized genre also like other genres. Many of you will stream the other genres or purchase the albums and singles but when it comes to Soca, you only looking for a mixtape.
I was watching Bandit and B2B mash up IG with some 90’s chunes & then it was kicks with Voice and Major Penny. Thousands of ppl were watching. I come to Twitter and it’s all about the Verzuz. Yes I’m aware it’s a huge moment for trap music. Where’s that same energy for Soca?
I’m a huge fan of the Verzuz platform and what it has done for Black music overall. I guess it hit me different tonight bc the energy of trap is polar opposite to Soca. Then I wondered if those from the south who love trap were tweeting praise for the Beenie/Bounty Verzuz
