Like the colour schemes he used to depict the political parties; he wore Red to show who he supports, then he had Jack the La Diablesse in Green and of course Kamla and her party the Lahahoos in Yellow.
Very clever!! :devil:

Very nice - witty classic throw back to the political satire. And commentary of the calypso art form. Like the depiction and use of lyrics to connect to the current political scene. Full markers here for this one.
That tempo sounding very similar to :

That is one of the all time great Calypso Fiesta performances. Skinner Park could make or break yuh (it make Denyse Plummer, Gypsy etc) and Mr Shak mash it up on Saturday

De Big Yard is a whole different kettle a fish tho. Let's see how he does there.

First time in a long time I looking forward to Calypso Monarch finals.

Based on what we know right now, I think he has the best shot. For the most part, in the past few years, calypsonians have had 1 hot song and then something serviceable for the 2nd selection (Pink panther last year is a good example). Bois is the perfect Skinner Park song and I think Kaiso Blues will do well in the savannah. Alana Sinnette and Kurt Allen also have 2 good songs to go into the big yard with. Kurt Allen tends to over-think things though.
