There is a blogger that keep saying; In Calypso there is always Controversy;and is so it be,
Congrats to the Calypsoians all who gave there all this season,don’t give up those who did not find favor with the judges, they are only human, belive in yourselves and work on your craft,there is always another compitetion,don’t let people brake you down with there tongue,they know how to use it ‘well’ as a weapon.
Congrats to my friend Checko for winning the Police Calypso crown
I don’t know what the judges was looking at or listening to. A bunch of nonsense.
Congrats Chris! Step it up next year and go str8 through and win thar crown
This is so much rubbish calypso and very poor judging. Big up to hardline who kept us viewers well entertained for the season. If i were you wouldn’t put myself in that again. I’ll rather go mountain climbing.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
That is so much rubbish calypso and very poor judging. If i was hardline who kept stardom entertained for weeks and did so well with his performance,wouldn’t put myself in that again I’ll rather go mountain climbing.
Thanks for the cure hardline wish I could have get more of that song.that is to my mind the best song of the year.me and the other girls love ur song we came just for that song.thanks for warming my heart hope to see more of you.nuff love
Mmm something must be wrong I think the four would have been chrisb ,hardline, omi and jadee .don’t know how the judges come to there decisions but don’t think they follow it.want to encourage hardline he was the one that kept stardom alive for the seaon don’t give up bro.you performed very well last night.my advise get overseas judges I think those we use are destroying the art form by keeping people down.
I am extremely proud of you Chris and so happy for you. You have a great voice and I know that one day you will be crowned calypso king of Dominica. Don’t give up! Congrats to my long time friend.
Congrats!!!
Thumbs up to chris b im impress keep your head up 2015 once there is health and strength you will move up from your friends in newyork
Congrats Chris B.
I just cannot understand for the life of me why JayDee seem not to impress the judges. I do not understand for a song so well crafted is just unable to win the judges. Lyrically is surpasses many of the calypsos if have heard. Web song is a good so but you have to listen over and over to get the message. Chess, one of my favorite, to be honest this time around I believe he has recycle material. Jaydee my friend do not give up!!!
I totally agree. Brilliantly crafted. I think some or all of them were asleep.
congrats
Congratulation Chris
Chris B your family and fans in mero you have made us proud, congratulations to my brother, nough love to you
Great job Chris B.
Well done to all who took place.
