Guyana’s “Soca Princess” Omaiah Hall Releases New Single “Happy Feeling”
(Kaieteur News) – Riding high on the success of her Road March-winning hit “Breakway,” Omaiah Hall has released a new single titled “Happy Feeling,” which is already generating significant buzz across social media platforms.

The track, which dropped yesterday (October 16th), represents the first of three planned releases the young artist has been developing for this season. Hall, who has recently earned the moniker “Guyana’s Soca Princess,” has maintained impressive momentum following her “Breakway” triumph earlier this year, securing several major performance opportunities in recent months.
Earlier this year, Hall’s “Breakway” placed third in the Soca Monarch competition, a result that sparked considerable debate on social media as many fans believed the track deserved top honours. However, Hall secured the ultimate vindication when “Breakway” was crowned Road March winner, determined by which song dominated the Mashramani parade. The victory proved that while judges had their say, the streets chose Hall’s infectious anthem as the people’s champion.
Speaking about her new release, Hall explained her creative vision for the track. “Happy Feeling is really a feeling I wanna evoke to listeners. It’s sorta me paying homage to Breakway with some of the lyrics present in the song,” she said, noting that the project has been in development for months.
The new track showcases a true pan-Caribbean collaboration, with production handled by a Trinidadian producer and lyrics penned by an Antiguan writer. “A nice cook up of Caribbean creatives,” Hall remarked, highlighting the regional cooperation behind the track.
Early reception has been enthusiastic, with fans responding positively across various social media platforms. When questioned about whether “Happy Feeling” would serve as her entry for the 2026 Soca Monarch competition, Hall remained focused on her broader artistic goals. “My focus is releasing great music before really thinking about Monarch,” she stated.
The release comes as Hall continues to build on the success of “Breakway,” which not only won the Road March title but also sparked a groundbreaking karaoke competition, the first of its kind by a Guyanese artist. With two more releases planned for this season, Hall appears determined to solidify her position in the Caribbean music scene and fulfill her stated ambition of making the entire Caribbean and the world know “this little soca princess from Guyana.” Fans can find “Happy Feeling” on major streaming platforms and YouTube.
