Asche is Calypso Monarch in T&T

A TWO-TIME, Junior Calypso Monarch is the calypso monarch in Trinidad & Tobago, winning the TT$2 million prize.

Observers have praised 27-year old Karen Asche for giving a highly polished performance of her two selections, Careful What Yuh Ask For and Uncle Jack at the Dimanche Gras show at the Queen’s Park Savannah.

She dethroned defending monarch Kurt Allen, relegating him to sixth position, and pushed former monarchs Sugar Aloes (Michael Osouna) and Chalkdust (Dr Hollis Liverpool) into second and third positions, respectively.
