This song 'Soca Baptist' was the first time a Road March was won by a new comer. 1980 was the first year Blue Boy (now known as Super Blue) started to sing Calypso. The only other rookie to win any other major Calypso title in Trinidad & Tobago was in 1961 when the Mighty Dougla won the Calypso King (now known as Calypso Monarch) title with 'Lazy Man' and 'Split Dougla In Two'.
Super has a powerful voice as if he was like a general in the military. One of the greatest calypsonians next to Black Stalin, Explainer, Duke, Eddy Grant, Gabby, Grynner, Lord Kitchener, Maestro, Merchant, Poser, Lord Nelson, Shadow, Roaring Lion, The Mighty Sparrow, and King Wellington.

I look up to Super Blue as a true calypsonian as a icon as well. I wish I can sing like Super Blue. But I can't. I can only imagine.

nativett...correction...Blues never won Calypso Monarch...If my memory serves me correctly, the closest he came was 1984 with "Lucy" & "Fete"
