Good morning from me and a frustrated song sparrow (I forgot to pick up more seed). #birds

I gasped! The Mighty Sparrow has left us. One of the most important and popular Calypsonians to ever do it! Songs filled political fire, irreverence, humor, naughty (very, very naughty) banter, and beats that make you wind your waist!
Rest in Power, Sparrow. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/27/a...
The Mighty Sparrow, Trinidadian Titan of Calypso, Is Dead at 91
He was sometimes described as the last of the true calypso singers. But in fact he simultaneously preserved calypso tradition and invented it anew.

RIP. Sparrow is a large part of the soundtrack of my childhood. The way I write and talk is hugely grounded in calypso. When ppl ask what influences my sffh writing it's people like this giant and oral folktales from Trinidad. Thank you, Sir for all the joy. 🖤

RIP to Calypso singer Mighty Sparrow, who has died at the age of 91, such an important figure in a genre which is really unfairly neglected.
