Chalky

Thanks to Dennis Johnson from Fire Works on the local radio station for exposing us to Chalk Dust, a great character and fine example for our youth

 

Those of you who haven’t heard any of his songs or had never seen Chalk Dust in his performance should take the opportunity to do so.  Calypso is the Caribbean expression through song.

 

Chalky

Capitalist destroying we calypso

Hardly a youngster nowadays know

Artistes that struggled for this art

Lyrical Maestros who delivered from the heart

Keeping the society informed of their history

You need study colloquialisms and more says Chalky
