"Calypso
survives sporadically in Limón and Bocas del Toro (Panama), especially
around Carnival time, in the spring. Elsewhere on the mainland, the
calypso culture is gone, driven out by radios and jukeboxes
broadcasting Latin pop music. The young men sing the radio songs. Only
the old remember how people once entertained each other with home-grown
lyrics..."

sobrevive de manera esporádica en Limón y la provincia panameña de Boca
del Toro, especialmente alrededor de la época de carnaval, entre marzo
y abril. En el resto de la región, la cultura del calypso se ha
desvanecido, substituida por la música pop transmitida a través de
radios y grabadoras. Los hombres jóvenes cantan ahora las canciones de
la radio, y solo los viejos recuerdan cómo alguna vez se entretenían
unos a otros con sus propios versos..."
