Linky First - Rock And Come In One of the awesome soca tracks on my best of 2016 list. I don’t remember hearing this tune at any party in 2016 but then I finally found it and I love it.

It’s that time again, time for the traditional “best of the year” lists. Lets start with soca. In 2016 soca got more of my attention especially during the latter half of the year thanks to my trips to Notting Hill Carnival in August and Miami Broward Carnival in October. In Finland, I kept playing new soca tunes on our radio show and tried to include some of them into my afrobeats sets every now and then. By far, the “easiest” tune to play was “Oh Yay” by Olatunji. Cloud 5′s “No Behavior” was a big anthem in a different way. And yes, "No Behavior” and many other songs came out in 2015, but because they were marketed as 2016 tunes and were played throughout the year they qualify to be on the list. I didn’t include any tunes that are now being marketed as 2017 tunes except “Rock And Come In” which in fact was released just before Trinidad Carnival. Hand Grenade Riddim will be on the 2017 list! 1. Olatunji - Oh Yay 2. Cloud 5 - No Behavior (Whole Place Shell Down) 3. Voice - Cheers To Life 4. Linky First - Rock And Come In 5. Shortpree - Set The Mood 6. Flipo - Oh Gosh 7. Biggie Irie - Money Well Spent 8. King Bubba - Calling In Sick 9. Erphaan Alves - Intentions 10. Lyrikal - Dip & Roll Honorable mentions: Grynner - Turn On De Speaker Red Plastic Bag - Spontaneous Teddyson John - Allez Peter Ram - Good Morning Ricardo Drue - Professional Hypasounds - How She Like It Marz Ville & Unruly Empire - Bang Bim Machel Montano & Tarrus Riley - Memory Slatta - Jab Jab Skank Wahalla Riddim RR Riddim
