He began by writing chants and performing in the calypso genre, in the 70s, be started to experiment with the calypso by combining it with the indigenous chutney. Shorty added Indian instruments which include the dhantal, dholak and table.

Shorty had been in Dominica during Exile One act of cadence-lypso and joined with Dominica’s 1969 Calypso King, Lord Tokyo and two other calypso lyricists, such as Pat Aaron and Chris Seraphine in the early 70s, who wrote him some creole words. Soon later released a chant known as Ou Petit, with lyrics like Ou dee moin ou petit Shorty (which refer as you told me you are small Shorty), a mixture of calypso, cadence and kweyol. Shorty’s 1974 Endless Vibrations and Soul of Calypso introduced soca to its top of international popularity.

Soca’s establishment comprise its combination of calypso, cadence and Indian musical instruments, especially the dhantal, dholak and table as demonstrated in Shorty’s classical works such as Shanti Om and Indrani. Soca reached its current type by the early 70s under the influenced of the American soul, funk and disco music, which originated rudiments, had been removed from the genre, less poetic radical than folk calypso, soca has continued extremely motivated on good times all over the record.
