I am a reggae dancehall artist but listen more kaiso than any other music. Kaiso is on of the hardest music to write in my opinion as a song writer I have to confess

[@victorialangenflder4317]

I am also here in September 2024. I am from Africa, rounding up my studies in the UK. Calypso is very pleasant.

[@CarnivalVillage]

I have probably seen this a dozen times and every time it sounds sweeter. Thank you Blakie we have you here forever. Alos these calypsoes show us clearly the true meaning of Calypso. these artists were the messengers of the time.

Truly infectious laugh. If you met this legend in person you better listen carefully because he had a way of speaking which demanded you pay attention and if he realized you were left behind he quickly rescued you but as a father figure he often returned later on to pull you aside and enlighten you.

[@riyadhrafique8377]

Steelband Clash (road march 1954), Chinese Accident (Incident), Maria (1962 Road March), and Hold De Pussy (1967)- with the talents of David Rudder, Gypsy & Mystic Prowler (1944-2003) as the chorus, and the Master of Ceremonies himself, comedian Sprangalang, Lord Blakie- Carlton Joseph (1932-2004), the Original rudeboy of Kaiso indeed- with that mischievous laugh of his (between him and Sparrow which one is worse- I would have to say Blakie). Rest In Peace Blakie, Kaiso is not the same without legends like you, Lord Kitchener, Lord Shorty, Duke, Brigo, Lord Melody and so many more!!! Long live the calypso art form & tradition!

[@sarahtrinkitty868]

He captured periods in Trinidad's cosmopolitan society so well: steelband rivalry, our linguistic complexities, immigration, love and obsession for Venezuelan (red) women, and the list goes on. Thank you for sharing this gem.

[@altonscott5755]

I love all music especially calypso,like Bob Marley said " one good thing about music! When it hit you feel no pain "

[@alstonfergusson4627]

I heard these cslypsoes as a young boy growing up. They were good then; they are even better now! Interesting though is that West Indians back then were not restricted by political correctness. Calypsoes poked fun at the accents of Trinidadian Chinese, Grenadians, Bajans, Yankees or whomever they p,eased. We laughed and danced without taking offence.

[@etem.a.4974]

Lord blakie... Much love for such great music...

Oh how kaiso from blake,brigo,and rest brings back memories of the golden years of kaiso,and i was there for most of these greats when they cameto Sangre Grande,Ascot cinema ,for their yearly carnival season shows glad and happy to have them in all their glory.
