Twelve-year-old Myles Myles-Z Gittens, the junior king, still has a long way to go to catch up with calypso king, The Mighty Gabby, 62, who took his eighth Pic-O-De-Crop crown on Friday night.But it seems that the young calypsonian who won his second crown this year is destined to follow in Gabby’s footsteps.The two met yesterday at a breakfast session and Gabby, who is helping several young people develop the art-form and wrote six songs for some of the Junior Monarch participants, was quick to congratulate Myles-Z with a friendly knock. Also present were Aziza Lil Az Clarke, who won the 13-18 category in the Junior Monarch competition and TC, who won the Sweet Soca Monarch.
