Soca star Kes just delivered a massive moment for Caribbean music in New York. He transformed Jazz at Lincoln Center into a full‑on soca fête, blending swing‑jazz with island energy and bringing the whole band along for the ride.

He even linked up with a fellow Trini trumpeter, making the night feel like home on one of NYC’s biggest stages.

Kes showed the world exactly how Trini’s/Caribbean people do.
