Niqa Delivers Bold Barbadian Calypso with “We Business”
Barbados’ rising calypsonian Niqa (Anique Herbert) is making waves with her latest single, “We Business”—a vibrant Calypso track that premiered at the All Stars Calypso Tent on July 11. Backed by the renowned Finatic Records, this release showcases Niqa’s growth as an artist and her commitment to preserving Caribbean heritage on stage (Facebook).
Co-written by Anique Herbert and Anthony Carter, and arranged by Andy Williams, “We Business” blends engaging storytelling with infectious rhythms. The production, led by Anderson Armstrong, features his own crisp guitar lines, while backing vocals from Indra Rudder and additional instrumentation by Andy Williams round out a polished, full-bodied sound.
As Executive Producers, Niqa herself and Reddhead Records helped steer the creative vision toward celebrating Barbadian identity and female empowerment. The track captures Niqa’s confident stage presence and musical versatility—qualities fans witnessed firsthand during her performance at the Kooyman All Stars Calypso Tent at St. Gabriel’s School (Instagram).
Niqa has long been a standout figure in Barbadian music circles. With a background in theater, dance, and music—and most recently serving as Secretary of the Barbados Association of Creatives and Artistes (BACA)—she blends artistry with civic engagement (Facebook). “We Business” channels that spirit, combining clever wordplay with a call to action for women across the Caribbean.
The track’s upbeat tempo and empowering lyrics have positioned it as a highlight for the 2025 calypso season. Clubs and fetes are already adding it to rotation, and social media is buzzing with clips from Niqa’s live sets. One fan-witness describes the performance: “Niqa’s stage presence lit up the tent,” while another calls her “the real deal in modern calypso” (Facebook, Instagram).
