Calypso Monarch 2018, Daryl Bobb has confessed that he didn’t do his best to defend his crown during the 2019 Calypso Finals held on Saturday.
He said during a media interview that said he respects the judges’ decision.
“What I would say about myself: for some reason, I don’t think that I gave enough and at one point I even felt that I was out of the competition totally,” he said.
He continued, “I mark myself very hard; I am very hard on myself and that is probably why I sound like that now but I really don’t think that I gave enough.”
Bobb said that this has happened 17 times in his career, “not losing a crown, but having that kind of disappointment.”
He pointed out that he has been 1st runner-up several times, and has no hard feelings.
“At 1st runner-up, I am still thankful, but I know I have to again do my work and get back to the character that got me in there the year before,” he remarked.
He said being first runner-up is not going to affect, in any way, his platform of helping children, adding, “the first runner-up is definitely going to be a help.”
The 2018 monarch still feels part of the 2019 calyspo royalty because, according to him, “the first runner-up position is not far from the crown.”
Very fortunate to have been place. Certainly, not one of your best performance.
Daryl u just didn’t have to do that to your private part though. U really had me going. Anyway congrats. Next year u go take it back
You are right to say that you thought you were out of the competition because you were not supposed to be in second place.
Steupps! He should not have placed at all.
You are so right
