DOMINICA CALYPSO MONARCH FINALS 2020 HIGHLIGHTS

OH! but for the sweet love of calypso... for we are gathered here today brothers and sistrens, for yet another year of what may seem to have been an unbelievable journey thus far. The 365 days has passed since the last Calypso Finals and I think most people will agree with me when I say, "For it is by his grace we have made it through! Hallelujah" Dominica is now well within its post election season and our calypsonians are taking no prisoners when it comes to love of country. And for those of you who may not know, calypso sheds great light on what goes on in a country, through music and melody, and sometimes there is comedy involved as well. A simple play on words, a little dabbling on the fences of our (...Oh so dear...) leaders and a little troublemaking can be as a result of this competition. 9 calypsonians have been selected to challenge the crown of the 9 times calypsonian king, King Dice... so you know all gears are on! King Dice is definitely one of, if not the toughest contender in this arena so he is definitely one to beat. I mean... 9 crowns says a lot, but who knows, in this chess game, the Queen may just give up her King! Now we saw the power of the contenders at the Semi Finals, and we are going to see them charge head first against the best of the "bestest" and amongst each other. Ten well able-bodied calypsonians, armed with their gut, stage presence, lyrical content and a few props to tell a story, but only one will emerge victorious here at the Windsor Park Calypsonian Octagon.
