Copping three of Crop-Over’s top soca prizes has put Michael Mikey Mercer at the forefront of the season, with his hit Like Uh Bajan edging a tight Tune of De Crop contest by a single play.

Describing his rare hat trick in capturing the majority of the country’s largest soca titles as humbling, the entertainer said he is already in the studio working on songs for next year’s competitions.

At the end of Monday’s Grand Kadooment, Mikey was announced as the winner of the coveted Tune of De Crop title, after taking home the Sweet Soca and Power Soca Monarch titles.
