I have quite a good collection but I do not know how to download. Probably a quickie tutorial from some GNI whiz kid might help.

From wiki reds:

Kaiso is a type of music popular in Trinidad, which originated in West Africa, and later evolved into Calypso. Kaiso songs are generally narrative in form and often have a cleverly concealed political subtext. Kaiso performers are known as Kaisonians.  

The term kaiso is said to derive from a Hausa word used as an exclamation of approval, such as "Bravo!" [1] The word is often used synonymously with calypso today, but often with the connotation that the former is more authentic, showing approval consistent with its original meaning.

On Barbados, kaiso refers to a form of stage presented calypso, such as at the crop over festival.
