    Tonight was all about Bob and he did a wonderful job.. Dice we love you and you will always be our calypso King but tonight it was Bob turn. Let us all have a wonderful carnival and enjoy yourselves and forget about what happened with Karassah
    Hexey you a wrong both Dice & Bob materials were very good so accept the judges verdict and let it rest.

    2018 new Calypso King is BOB.

    It is a shameful act by the karessa. Disappointing doesn’t begin to express my feelings on what happened tonight. The act of a sore loser. I do not know the constitution of the calypso association, but my hope is that there is something in there to deal with such behaviour. Not example to our young people.

    My pick this year will be Dice and Bobb.

  5. My little take
    February 10, 2018

    Bob has the two best songs by far! If he does not fopa and puts out a good presentation, he will be crowned 2018 calypso king though he is not my favorite boy. Anyway here is my little take:

    1. Bob
    2.Dice
    3.Scrunter
    4. Chris B

    It’s going to be the reverse of the order the will be singing #10 king, #9 second runner-up#1 3rd runner-up, and #1 goes 4th

    I am with the woman. Always love Tasha’s singing. However, I am listening to the show and Bobb had a stellar performance. We got to look out for him.
