10. Cloud 5 – No Behavior (Shell Down)

Soca from the Caribbean’s small islands reached much further than usual this year — the most remarkable example being “No Behaviour” by Cloud 5, a conglomerate of previously unknown teenage artists from tiny Carriacou, in the Grenadines. The song’s odd, discordant melody immediately sets it apart from, transforming the energy in any room, while Bigred, Melo, KC and Scout’s jab jab vocals carry you right into J’Ouvert morning anytime it plays. —Jesse Serwer
