Oswald “Ozie Bluu” Carty is the first calypsonian on Montserrat to release a song for the 2023 Carnival Season.
The song entitled “Drums of Freedom” was composed, written, and arranged by Everton “Reality” Weekes, with background vocals done by Dionne Welch.
Ozie Bluu was awarded a EC$500 prize from the Montserrat Arts Council (MAC) for releasing the first song.
It’s the second successive year that Ozie Bluu has received the award.
Chairman of the Calypso Committee Theodore Phillip says the award serves as a motivation for calypsonians to compose and release their songs more than one month ahead of the competition. Read More
