It was a night of glitz and glamour when the National Action Cultural Committee (NACC) hosted its annual Top 20 Calypsoes for compositions in 2010. Among the dignitaries in attendance were Minister of Arts and Multiculturalism Winston “Gypsy” Peters and High Commissioner Designate to the Federal Republic of Nigeria Nyahuma Obika.

Among the night’s calypso stars in attendance were Young Kings Monarch Kwesi Jeffers, Calypso Queen Kizzie Ruiz, Contender, King Luta, Brian London and Duane O’Connor. Defending National Calypso Monarch Kurt Allen copped the coveted Calypso of The Year award for his song Too Bright.
