We long to start hearing the pulsing soca rhythms on the radio and the biting social commentary with its witty - and often controversial - lyrics. Mouths water at the thought of a 'pork lime' complete with barbecue pig tails and roasted pork. Ah yes.. Crop Over is nearly here! Some years ago Crop Over didn't really start until July but these days the earlier the better! Starting in May the National Cultural Foundation takes some of Barbados' most popular soca performers and calypsonians to communities across the island to wet the appetite for another great Crop Over season!
