Rick ‘Rick Ram’ Ramoutar has won the $400,000 top prize at the Chutney Soca Monarch (CSM) 2024, beating eleven (11) other contestants, including his wife, Vanessa ‘Sexy Vanessa’ Ramoutar. This year’s CSM theme was the ‘Colours of Chutney.’ Ramoutar’s hit ‘Luuuzzaarr’ (pronounced ‘loser’), earned him 407 points at the competition, which was held at Skinner Park, San Fernando, last night (Saturday 10th February, 2024). The results were announced around 2:30 AM on Sunday morning. There was a three-way tie for second place with Sexy Vanessa, who sang ‘Suno Suno Balana,’ TT dancehall artiste Lady Lava (Keisha Harris) and Shazeena Sabrina Ramsumair, also known as ‘Shazzi,’ with ‘XXX Drama (Move On).’ Rawytee Ramroop placed third and was also crowned ‘Queen of Chutney Soca’ for her song ‘Whining Down to the Ground.’ She received a cash prize of $100,000. Kavita Ramkissoon, also known as the ‘Chutney Empress,’ also came in third with her song ‘Driver.’ Ramoutar wiped away tears of joy as his family as other supporters rushed to congratulate him. “After 17 years, it truly means a lot to me. Having my family alongside me truly means a lot, and the love and support from everyone, not just this year but from when my career started,” he said following the announcement. His song ‘Luuuzzaarr’ was written in response to those who speak badly about him, referring to him as a loser. Ramoutar and his wife Vanessa wrote the song, which was produced by Big Rich In The Pungalunks. Southex organised the competition in collaboration with several organisations. Ramoutar also thanked Southex’s CEO George Singh, his supporters, and everyone who had a part to play in this song, including Tony Cuttz and Vicardi Singh, Master Saleem and KI. Ramoutar dethroned last year’s CSM winner, Ricardo ‘Daddy Chinee’ Melville. [Source: Newsday]
