Socaholic' singer Ricardo Drue |
Ricardo who has written songs for many artistes in Antigua,
Grenada, St. Thomas, Dominica and the US brings his unique R&B/Soca flair
to the All Stars and has already excited audiences by his renditions at the
band’s corporate Christmas gigs.
The seasoned performer has
had previous stints with Roy Cape in 2012 and Imij and Company in 2010 and is excited
to be a part of the T&T C2K14 action.
Although born in Antigua, Drue spent his formative years in T&T and is appreciative
for his exposure to his Trinidadian heritage and culture. He is committed to exposing
the indigenous music of the Soca capital and believes that the genre is very
close to a major international breakthrough.

The versatile performer who
has goals of working with artistes such as Destra, Blaxx and international hit maker Neyo shared, “Ever since I
can remember I wanted to be an entertainer.
I was always singing, writing
and dancing around the house, and that passion just kept burning and led me to
this path. Anyone that knows me can tell you I am an R&B/ Pop fan but Soca
was always in me. I felt that I could help take our culture to the world so I
followed my heart”.
The versatile Ricardo Drue is once again front-line vocalist for world renowned Soca outfit Roy Cape All Stars. |
“My short-term goals are to
have a successful and positive Christmas and Carnival 2014, however, my
long-term goals are to continue building my “ID” brand and eventually turning
that into a revenue generating business as Jay Z did with Roca-wear. I also aspire to make Ricardo Drue a household name worldwide; I want to be known as one
that did many great things for my culture”.
Drue
who anticipates a triumphant
Carnival season for himself and the band is also currently in the midst of
planning a music video for his single “Socaholic” which in recent weeks has garnered steady rotation
on local and regional airwaves.
Socaholics
will have ample opportunities to see Ricardo Drue
with Roy Cape All Stars as the band is booked solidly at several engagements
throughout the entire Carnival 2014
season.
