In modern Dominica, calypso, zouk and reggae are popular, along with soca and rock and roll. A combination of these pop forms called bouyon has achieved some popularity, especially the group WCK (Windward Caribbean Kulture). Native musicians in various forms, like reggae ( Nasio Fontaine , Brother Matthew Luke ), soca ( Derick St. Rose-De Hunter , Young Bull ), zouk ( Ophelia Marie , Exile One ) and calypso ( Lazo , The Wizzard ) have also become stars at home and abroad.
