Calypso music commonly heard in the Caribbean illustrates the concept of the cultural mosaic.
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
The tradition of calypso music was popularized and spread into the world from the Caribbean islands.
Calypso was a form of folk music that originated in the Caribbean and had a witty and satiric subject.
It usually describes the local and tropical events of social and political import and has a tone of allusion and mockery.
Calypso developed amidst the uncivil conditions of colonial slavery during the 19th century.
Restricted to communicate with each other during exhausting hours of farm labor, slaves played music together to attain unity among themselves and mock their harsh European masters, mostly French and Spanish immigrants. This is why Calypso is also often known as the slave song.
