Soca music is so infectious, even fans in the chilly city of Helsinki, Finland have joined Mr Killa's call to ‘run with it’.
A group of Finnish DJs and music lovers have begun hosting soca parties which have found a niche within the Finnish music scene. Video footage shared online showed a recent soca party which had soca lovers dancing to Mr Killa's 'Run With It'.

“In 2009, Komposti Sound (local dancehall reggae sound system) brought Maximus Dan (MX Prime) to perform in Helsinki, and that was the only Soca event in Finland for a long time.”
“Around that time some of us started going to Notting Hill Carnival and got more and more into soca. Since then, some of us have been going to Carnival in different places, including Trinidad, Berlin, Miami,” he said.
