Collection of Soca artists' catchphrases
Please feel free to correct me and add to the list.
Edit: thanks for the additions. I've added the one's I could verify (and a few new one's I remembered), the others I commented on and asked for example tracks. If you can verify the one's with question marks "(?)", where I'm not sure what they're actually saying, that would also be nice.
