Popo became known as the "King of Chutney. The s saw more evolution within the genre. A young female artist named Drupatee Ramgoonai from Trinidad emerged on this new scene.
At first she was criticized for being "dutty" rude or crude in creole , because she wrote about sex and alcohol. This was nothing new, as she was following in the footsteps of other calypsonians who they sing about issues in their life or what is happening within the community. Drupatee was later given the title "Queen of Chutney.
Even in Holland, a new artist named Atiya emerged on the chutney scene. Starting in the s, chutney music's popularity started to outgrow the Caribbean islands. The United States and Canada began to pick up chutney artists for their recording companies. The establishment of nightclubs such as Soca Paradise and Calypso City in New York and Connections and Calypso Hut in Toronto, coupled with these new recording companies were all factors instrumental in promoting Indo-Caribbean music overseas and in the West Indies for they provided the necessary outlets for the music to grow.
The modern chutney artist writes lyrics in either Hindi, Bhojpuri or English and then lays them over beats derived from Indian dholak beats mixed with the soca beat. Chutney is an uptempo song, accompanied by electric guitar, synthesizer, dholak, harmonium, and dhantal, tassa drums played in rhythms imported from filmi, calypso or soca. Chutney is unusual in the predominance of female musicians in its early years, although it has since become more gender-mixed. The nature of current chutney songs are simple.
They speak about life and love for many things, whether for a significant other or for an object of possession. Some chutney songs favor the topic of food or drink; however, like most West Indian music, there can be a hidden message found in the song if you read between the lines. Standing on that old parade ground, which is now a cricket field, I could feel the dead generations crowding me.
