Change is a rule of nature and while the Labour Party members and supporters are sick at heart over the Dice song titled \u2018Time for Change\u2019 they should note that the politics of Waitikubuli itself keeps on changing. The DLP has changed from its original self to a party that has been reconstructed into a \u201c new generation\u201d combination of old labourites and added \u201cclassical\u201d Freedomites forced ripened from green to red.<\/p>\n

It is now the party that finds no problem in appointing one time leader of the Freedom Party Charles Savarin, who just a few short years ago urged the destruction of the very Labour Party, to the exalted position of President of Dominica. The Freedom party has also changed from the once mighty force to a whimpering hope seeking a voice of welcome somewhere, anywhere.<\/p>\n

The UWP has changed from its struggling state to a new Team Dominica snuggling contentedly with a new leader. There were a whole range of topics that could have been on the calypso writers agendas this season from Black Sigatoka to white skiers representing Dominica a tropical island in the Sochi winter games but it seemed the focus was mostly on the natural process of wanting a change of government which by the way is the relief democracy allows us.<\/p>\n

Now that the tumult and the shouting of the carnival season has died one can reflect on why is the word \u2018change\u2019 having an effect never seen before on some of our people who selfishly think that change will bring down their little kingdoms or expose their shenanigans.<\/p>\n

Since as is said, \u201cJustice knows everyone\u2019s number\u201d then the time will come when it will not just be your brother calling and even if you are sitting on a Skerrit toilet you must answer to Madame Justice seeking to have a word with you on the phone. No matter what your situation today change lives in the region called, \u201csooner or later\u201d and is as inevitable as the sound of the last trumpet. The present thrust and pushback all started when the UWP Team Dominica began to use the slogan \u2018Change Is A Must\u2019 which highly irritated the ruling party and so when the word \u2018change\u2019 was directly the topic of the DICE popular calypso the labour party agents felt the kick in their stomachs and went totally ballistic with single minded savagery.<\/p>\n

King Dice\u2019s calypso is not about Red versus Blue but about the meaning of change and \u201cwho the cap fit let them wear it.\u201d Change Is not something recently invented by him it is how life has always worked. The world is changing and we must change with it. Change is not just about getting on another victory train or about swapping back and forth from one sweetheart messiah to the next but about a different and innovative approach to the challenges facing Waitikubuli in today\u2019s world. That the UWP Team Dominica in just six months of its creation can so inspire a large section of our population toward a new and uplifting vision exposes the present administration as not being able at this time to excite the imagination of the people like at first.<\/p>\n

Dice\u2019s song for this year\u2019s calypso contest is craftily constructed and tailor made for him. The comfortable lyrical expressions of the verse which quickly segues into risky precipitous vocal range extensions of the rapid fire chorus allowed Dice to show his admirable control in rendering the fullness of the song. I knew from the first launching that once he did it well on the night there was no chance for any other to beat him. Government politicians seem only to hear the tie-line of the chorus, \u201cIts time for change\u201d but if they listened more and talked less they would be able to understand the genius in the lyrics.<\/p>\n

The easiest part of the calypso is to criticize it. With a basic knowledge of music and writing or even none atall you can give speeches on the flaws, spits and turns, its goings in and goings out. I have heard demolition jobs being done on this or that calypso simply because it was not written as the critic would like. I listen to critics who think that calypso is some sort of university lecture with all the facts and figures properly researched and accurately presented. A calypso like Peter Letang\u2019s \u2018Voodoo on the Port\u2019 would be dismissed as too empty and should be developed more yet the critics would miss that its simplicity is its main attraction.<\/p>\n

On the other hand I sometimes hear a buildup of the merit of some songs which clearly do not deserve it. Calypso is not a science but an art sometimes even poetical art though not necessarily bathed in beauty and romance and like all such allows itself poetic licence to exaggerate and freely cast innuendos. Each writer has an own concept of any situation and presents them within the parameters of how he or she sees it. What adds up to two in science could add up to whatever figure the calypso writer chooses. There would however be no calypso critics without the composers and the composer\u2019s job is a thousand times more difficult.<\/p>\n

When you write and compose a calypso you first must have an idea and concept in your head of what you want to write about and how you want it to be musically presented. You may tweak it and rearrange it even start again until the entire composition fits exactly what you hear in your head. When what you hear in your head is what is presented on the recording or on the stage then you have achieved that elusive thing called perfection. For writers who do not perform their own songs therein lies the rub according to the bard. The task of finding the right artist to perform the song exactly as you hear it in your head is not an easy one and so when you finally find a performer who can deliver the package just as you like it then you have found your Moses deliverer opening up the Red sea. It is on him or her the continuity or death of your work depends.<\/p>\n

The combination of Pat Aaron writer and composer and King Dice performer may have reached the peak called perfection evidenced now by the seven wins over ten years in the Calypso Monarch competition. While Pat is a very accomplished writer, yet all his songs may not be great and needs a great artist to close the deal. Dice has the ability to express a myriad of emotions through only the sound of his special calypso voice and do it in a completely believable way. He can take a simple sentence like, \u201cIts time for change,\u201d and stir the emotions of an entire nation. He can challenge, dazzle, charm, entice, urge, tease, criticize and more and make it sound genuine.<\/p>\n

So when you add to that a gifted writer and composer such as Pat Aaron with his huge experience over decades of doing this, you have a match made in calypso heaven. There are critics that say, \u201cOh the melody of this or that one sounds in part similar to another one,\u201d but since there are only seven basic notes in the musical scale A>B>C>D>E>F>G otherwise known as Doh>Re>Me>Fa>Soh>La>Ti this is bound to happen in every form of musical melody. While Pat is able to compose it is Dice with his magnetic stage ability and his obvious comfort on stage having been in the winner\u2019s circle so many times that makes it all work and when complemented with the brilliance of his stage support hands led by Randy Aaron well it seems like it will always be \u201cDice Again.\u201d Right?<\/p>\n

While some people may want to change the government after 14 years of the same old rituals and formulas there are a whole lot of calypso fans who pray that the one dominant combination that will not change any time soon is that of Pat Aaron and King Dice. But then again change is a rule of nature which cannot be stopped and since Dice did not invent it standby because Mother Change is always changing itself and everything else so we shall roll the dice and see.<\/p>\n
