This year's winner of the National Calypso Monarch may have come as a surprise to many but not to this young Calypsonian. He was confident, and tonight he delivered his song with the confidence of a champion...he deserved to win, and yes, he is a smooth operator!
What is missing is a studio recording of this song, which has the potential to become a classic, especially considering the impending elections in Trinidad and Tobago. We can only hope that the authorities will take the appropriate action and produce a studio version of this outstanding Calypso.
