The Chutney Music was popular in Trinidad and Guyana. Chutney music began in the southern Caribbean and is currently popular in Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Jamaica, Fiji, Mauritius, and South Africa, among other places. It is a fast-paced, rhythmic song accompanied by dholak, harmonium, and dhantal. Chutney music is a mash-up of Bhojpuri and regional sounds and became popular in the mid-twentieth century and flourished in the 1980s. Initially, the songs were spiritual, sung mainly by women. Religious leaders were offended by divinity references in chutney music. In recent years, chutney music has increasingly used drum machines playing tassa.
