Imagine, my 25 year old was listening to this song and showed it to me saying that this was a dying tradition. He found this song so funny. So proud of him . Rest in Peace Lord Kitchener
fun song! my father is bajan, he gone with the lord now. takes me back to saturday mornings as a boy. he would play sparrow, jackie opel on the stereo playa while making fish cakes. great memories, great old school calypso. RIP king Browne!!
Fun fact: Lord Kitchener's father was Bajan. Stephen Roberts and his siblings moved to Trinidad where he married Albertha Smith and they had 6 children. Lord Kitchener was the last child. Find the Roberts in Barbados and you'll find Lord Kitchener's relatives.
Hello Quweina so your daddy is connected to Barbados?? Take Yuh Meat out me Rice indeed!! 😂 When I think of Barbados, I think of Hunte's Garden, Harrison Cave & Oistin's. I have a fun fact for you my dear- Barbados may well be on their way to Republic Status source: The NewYork Times. Trinidad get Republic Status in 1976. Guyana got in 1970. Dominica received Republic status 1978- so you can imagine how the Bajans will feel once they get that!!
Quwenia Roberts i love your father's music as did my late parents. As a child we lived in the UK and my dad met your father. My parents were true Trinbagonians i grew up hearing this kaiso and have loved all his music. I even knew his brother Errol from Point Fortin through my job. May he continue to RIP.
Lord Kitchener, I grew up hearing, in all places, Los Angeles! A number of Black Americans were listening to him, Sparrow and others from the Caribbean and not just American soul, or jazz. Afro-Cuban, highlife, and even Ska were heard at neighbors or home. Even today I still dig his calypso music and wish some 'r and b' radio would broaden its playlist to include more sounds from the African diaspora.
I'm Romanian and I really dig it...I'm married to a Trinidadian but that's no excuse...I really like the man...and I hope you'll find out where Romania is on the map. 'nuff respect...a responsible citizen of the world...
Trinis are well learned people,in all my living memory I have known about the great Romania..it may be much harder to find T&T on the map. But we are all citizens of one World!! Blessings to you!! ;)
I am from Austria and I had to laugh when I just thought how much time I spend to decipher this or find the written lyrics for many good caylpso songs I know.
Wow! I haven't heard about a song like that in all the 27 years of my life! So this is what old time calypso sounds like! No wonder Kicthener is a legend in calypso! Go Kitch!
Thanks a million... we need to highlight our one CARIBBEAN CULTURAL MUSIC HERITAGE.. THANKS FOR THIS HISTORICAL TAKE...Makes us one Caribbean Peoples...One Love ❤️
🌦🇧🇧🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Blessings. I Am Lenage Of The Roberts Family Of Barbados 🇧🇧 🙏🏾 My Greatgran Father Was A Merchant Ship Seaman🙏🏾 I Had A Cousin Now Deceased LOOKED EVERYTHING LIKE LORD KITCHENER🙏🏾His Music Will LIVE ON🙏🏾🇧🇧
My 27 year old ass was played this by my trini grandparents when I was 3 or 4. I used to laugh ...and laugh and laughhh 😂. It's great to find this again.
One of my favorite Kitch chunes. Lord Kitchener was the calypso name of Trinidad native Aldwyn Roberts. Kitchener was also known as the Grandmaster of Calypso and the Road March King. The interweb can be helpful Bills to Pay is a challenge...only thing I came up with was a Destra tune -Negative Vibes- that had the line..."I done working so hard every day Plenty plenty bills ah have to pay" WACK FM has some knowledgeable DJs and do Wayback Wednesday on Thursday....no, no, no on Wednesday
The thing about this song and why Lord Kitchener is one of the greatest calypsonians is that he even does the Bajan accent during the Bajan verse. LMAOL!
Anyone know that old calypso song where part of the song he talks about how he went into a store and took a bunch of tvs, dvds etc. Then when the cops arrest him and ask what he was doing, he said his grandmother told him the best things in life are free

Sweet Calypso was Storytelling at it's finest, a little dirty dancing and life was sweet and carnivals were about culture and costumes. BUT NOW 2018 ALL BETS ARE OFF.
I love this song you can eat flavored rice ,But it's hard to eat just meat, I wish they knew about compromising ,A little bit of this , and a little bit of that.

When all the meat in the pot is gone, and I only have the gravy to eat with my rice, I think of this song. 2020 quarantine struggles lol

I used to laugh ...and laugh and laughhh 😂. It's great to find this again.
He sound real like a Bajan. Classic Kitchy! Thanks
Beautiful music remiscent of days long ago. Friendly Caribbean rivalry - cannot be understood by people who have not experienced it.
I grew up with this! I would sing it on my way to meet my mom, where she was cooking for the family she worked for. We laughed together! LOVE THIS!!
This song have me laughing to death. Hilarious indeed. Plus Kitchener Bajan accept is spot on.
I love he just bruk out in a Bajan accent!!!
I found this track when a got an actual Jamaican copy of the RCA Jamaica LP, "Kitch '67" in stereo.
Man I am a Bajan....I used to hear this song when I was little.
This is the real deal! Not the crap that they have out these days.
Yes classic
Nicky Farrell I agree. The subject matter sucks in today's music. It lack artistic expression. It's why I'm here now.
this song leave me tears every time I hear it
Proud of the Calypso icons of my country. Kitchener, you were truly exceptional
Fantastic Post My Fellow Trini, Cheers !!!
A master of the calypso and Kaiso art forms, the Trinidadian Lord Kitchener, born Aldwyn Roberts (1922 - 2000).

One of my favorite Kitch chunes.

The interweb can be helpful
Bills to Pay is a challenge...only thing I came up with was a Destra tune -Negative Vibes- that had the line..."I done working so hard every day
Plenty plenty bills ah have to pay"
WACK FM has some knowledgeable DJs and do Wayback Wednesday on Thursday....no, no, no on Wednesday
we got a "Bajan" at work....and he talks exactly like that, lol.......
Great music and treasured memories of these singers grew up listening to them.
The words and phrases in the song are certainly Bajan (Barbadian) ..very cleverly written song by Lord Kitchener.....was here in 2020 November
Who is listening to this in 2024!!
I haven't heard this song for over 40 something years !
Love how it stared of as a 12 cent meat bone and gradually end up as a 8 cent meat bone. lol
That's the irony
"meat ball", I hear. and the value does go down, bit by bit. The Barbadian and the Trinidadian. Ha!
I finally understood it after all these years..😃

Ame cómo comenzó como un hueso de carne de 12 centavos y gradualmente termine como un hueso de carne de 8 centavos. jajaja
Because he is a liar. Lies always change.😃
Great, great kaiso from the legend Lord Kitchener !! This is what kaiso is all about, he was truly one of the greats.
THAT IS A CLASSIC
I listen to this song over and over and it crack me up every time.
This has to be my favorite calypso tune.
hahha you cannot beat Lord Kitchener,man was a clear genius.
such a wonderful tune.
lol
lulu xxx
Thank you for uploading this Classic Boss!!!!!!!!!!!
We didn't have a radio so my mother would sing all these songs for us when we were children
Listen and learn youths... A classic. Thank you Shapelander.
Just love this song..
This is so funny...😂😂😂 He really sounds like a bajan.
The thing about this song and why Lord Kitchener is one of the greatest calypsonians is that he even does the Bajan accent during the Bajan verse. LMAOL!
his imitation of the bajan accent is hilarious lol trinis
From the RCA Victor Jamaica LP, "Kitch, '67", released in mono and stereo in 1967 - Jamaica, W.I.
Wonderful! Takes me back home!
RIP Lord Kitchener ,this was music grew up listening to this song and it still makes me laugh with his words of two countries the best ever.
I'm still enjoying those songs
Man, you cant keep still to dis!
Haven't heard this song in ages, thanks for the up.
this really reminds me of being with my dad and grandfather on the beach in T&T
Yeah, he does seem to have an Irish tinge! ha ha ha ha ha....the funniest song I have heard in a while
I love Kitchener from since I was a child, way past my time, but that’s ok, love his music.
when i first heard this i thought it was a bajan singing. great song man. still can't stop laughing.
still listening July 2019...….chesse on bread...
lord kitch..... a true legand

When Rihanna gets going she sounds just like that 😃😉
I'm a haitian in i'm in so love With that song
Great Caiso song, just great and wonderful
My mother played this song today I instantly UA-cam to find out who's this, get you meat out my rice 😭😭😭
My grandmother and grandfather were Bajans they were my father's parents I never knew them,all my family and relatives are Trinidadians.
You neither understand the music nor the people. Sometimes, it is wise to not let one's ignorance overcome oneself and listen and learn.
Used to hear this when I was a little girl in Barbados. Still funny!
It's 3 aM, and I"m dead with laugh.....He has the Bajan accent done...
As fan of Calypso, and a Vegan, I interpret this song very differently, but the end result is still the same. Take your meat out me rice...
A BlakeHall same here
REALLY Take my Meat out ur Rice OMG!!!!!!
Your starving without meat lol
lololololo
I always feel bad for the Trinidadian in this song!
The victim
thank u too! he was the greatest!!!

DEHYDRATE THAT PORTION AND THROW OUT THE TROJAN.
CAN'T EAT TIL THE GUY IS GONE.
#SO
There is another song by Kitch which accompanies this tune. The Trini get his revenge by getting the Bajan to eat Callaloo with Crapaud (Toad) which Baj thinks is crab.Please post if available. Thanks.
A classic from yesteryear
Baddest ting
bajan sounds like irish...seriously...im always in bim...
Shite lol, never would have noticed.
The majority of slave masters who went to Barbados were Irish.
@@kaptainfour7365 slave masters were of Portugese and Anglo Saxons, not Irish. The Irish was the down trodden of the Europeans.
Lol bajan and Bahamian ppl sound so similar. I cried when I heard him do dat accent 😂
@@kaptainfour7365 A lot of Irish prisoners were brought to Barbados.
VINTAGE KAISO! MR. ALDWYN ROBERTS - THE BEST!
Sweet Calypso was Storytelling at it's finest, a little dirty dancing and life was sweet and carnivals were about culture and costumes. BUT NOW 2018 ALL BETS ARE OFF.
soca train ur looking for the Mighty Bombers "Foolish People" and that verse is found in versions where he gets encores
Here him 12, 10, then 8 cent bone, and how much is a cup of rice, a few cents? great song
thank you so much, i just read this!
Trini and Bage, I love it.
Good memories of a true artist.
BAGE YOU NOT EASY, YOU DECREASE THE MONEY for the meat FROM 12¢,10¢,9¢,8¢. LOL BLESS
Denton Basco smart man , yes? lmao
Yes, I also notice that the cost of the went down, it must of been because of inflation.
Calypso that lives on
Listening in 2020
Sweet!!!!
I love this song you can eat flavored rice ,But it's hard to eat just meat, I wish they knew about compromising ,A little bit of this , and a little bit of that.
Wonderful metaphor for Caribbean "cooperation"
oh my godddddd thank you yo!
