- Dr. Leroy Calliste is known as the Lawyer of Calypso... The peoples Calyposian
Dr. Leroy Calliste was on born on the 24 September 1941 and raised on Coffee Street in San Fernando to George and Elcina Calliste. One of four children, he attended San Fernando Boys' R.C. School. He worked as a limbo dancer before taking up singing calypso in 1959 when he made his debut at the Good Shepherd Hall in St. Madeleine. In 1962 when he joined the Southern Brigade and was given the Black Stalin by Blakie. In 1967 Black Stalin joined Kitchener's Calypso Revue tent..
Stalin was popularly called the People’s Calypsonian. He was known for his militant Rastafarian and black nationalist lyrics. Stalin won the Calypso Monarch competition for the first time in 1979 (with "Caribbean Man" and "Play One") and went on to win it again in 1985, 1987, 1991 and 1995. He also won the Calypso King of the World title in 1999.
In 1985, singing “Wait, Dorothy” and “Ism Schism” he beat Merchant’s “Pan in Danger” and “Caribbean Connection” and two years later, rendered “Mr Panmaker” and “Bu’n Dem” to pip David Rudder’s semainal work “Calypso Music.” In 1987 he was awarded the Hummingbird Medal (Silver) for his contribution to Trinidad and Tobago culture. In 1991 there was “Look on the Bright Side” and a song that has retained its value at fetes to this day, “Feeling to Party”. His last lien to date came in 1995 for “In Time” and the catchy “Sundar”.
Stalin won the global title, Calypso King of Kings in 1999 for his rendition of “Black Man Feeling to Party” and “Wine, Boy” (aka “Wine, Dhanraj, Wine”) a laugh-a-minute piece of political picong.
Black Stalin became Dr. Leroy Calliste on 31 October 2008, when he was conferred with an honorary doctorate from the University of the West Indies.
Black Stalin has performed in front of global audiences and left an indelible mark in the hearts and minds of millions who witnessed his energetic performances.
In 2021, the City of San Fernando renamed a portion of Lord Street (corner Coffee Street to Paradise Street) to Dr. Leroy Calliste street.
