Gya: The for cane man is back

Calypso's central role in social commentary is well and alive in Guyana. Ras Marcus's new song Fuh Cup, is descriptive of the state of affairs in Guyana, he says.

Rebel says he was robbed of the calypso monarchy two years ago, Tempest asked the judges not to `dis' her ability, Canary is pushing gender equality and Ras Marcus believes the country is 'Fuh Cup'.

And so erupted a barrel of explosive social commentary at Rose Hall, Berbice on Saturday when the adult calypso competition kicked off before a capacity crowd.
