What does SOCA mean in Scrabble?
noun
musicCaribbean
A lively style of dance music from Trinidad that blends calypso rhythms with soul and funk influences.
Soca grew out of calypso in Trinidad and Tobago during the 1970s, when musicians added soul and funk elements to the older calypso beat, and the word soca itself was coined by blending soul and calypso. It is closely tied to Caribbean carnival culture, where soca bands drive the parades with a fast, danceable rhythm.
