The image of the Greatest Calypsonian ever, the Mighty Sparrow, watches over the 2016 crop of Semi Finalists contending for the Monarch Title now held by Roderick "Chucky" Gordon. May the best singers rise to the top; and, to the great one... live long and prosper Sparrow!
Calypso lovers are in for a treat when the forty semi-finalists for this years Calypso Monarch title.

The show is scheduled to start at 12:00 noon Trinidad time (11:00 am Eastern Standard Time). This is a must see/must listen event!
This is the show when a bad performance could encounter a toilet paper missile delivery. The fans are do not hold back and the bad performances get their 'just due'. Look out for political assassination and lyrical mischief as the artists attempt to impress the judges and a very judgmental audience.
