Chutney

Along with Calypso there was a musical form that used rhymic patterns from the ethnic Indian population with Caribbean harmonies and, sometimes, english lyrics. This mixture was called Chutney.

One that is purely Indian is Doolha.

As sung by the Calypso singer Lord Beginner the song "Fed-A-Ray" sounds like this.
