arghton 6,753 Posted July 25, 2021 List of Calypso Monarchs from 1939-2010 (not including the newest ones) confirmedly still alive (there are a few early ones who are presumably dead), as some younger calypso singers (including 2003 monarch Singing Sandra): From Wikipedia: The Calypso Monarch (originally Calypso King) contest is one of the two major annual calypso competitions held in Trinidad as part of the annual carnival celebrations. List: 1956, 1960, 1962, 1963, 1972, 1973 and 1992: Mighty Sparrow, real name Slinger Fransisco (b. 1935) 8-time winner called the "Calypso King of the World". Undefeatable not only in calypso but also in health, as he looks much younger than what he is and still performs. 1964: Mighty Bomber, real name Clifton Ryan (1928-2022) Alive according to facebook, it has recent pictures of him (ca. 2019) and a message presumably from him about celebrating his 93th birthday. Often confirms that he is alive on his birthday on 30th of January by thanking god for another year. 1976, 1977, 1981, 1989, 1993, 2004, 2005, 2009 and 2017: Chalkdust, real name Hollis Liverpool (b. 1940) Starting to look older, but still performs. 1978: Calypso Rose, real name Linda McCartha Monica Sandy-Lewis (b. 1940) Like Chalkdust, performs but looks old and likely not in perfect health. 1979, 1985, 1987, 1991 and 1995: Black Stalin, real name Leroy Calliste (1941-2022) Got a serious stroke in 2014 that has affected his speech, however likely indestructible as he has apparently got much better by now. 1980: Lord Relator, real name Willard C. Harris (b. 1948) Can perform, but getting older. 1982: Scrunter, real name Irwin Reyes Johnson (b. ca. 1950 or before) "Undisputed king of Parang Soca" still performs occasionally. 1983: Tobago Crusoe, real name Ortniel Bacchus (b. ca. 1945/1946) Recently made a song about wearing covid. 1986: David Rudder (b. 1953) Called a "national hero" of Trinidad and Tobago. 1988, 1990, 1996 and 2007: Cro-Cro (b. unknown) Quite controversial nowadays. 1997: Gypsy, real name Winston Edward Peters (b. 1953) Also a politician. 2001: Denyse Pummer (1953-2023) Doesn't look healthy. 2002, 2008: Sugar Aloes, real name Michael Anthony Osouna (b. unknown) Singing since the 1970s.
