I don’t think the issue in TnT is so much about nationality as it is about residence. Nationality and residence are two different things. If it were nationality that’s the problem, why would Slinger “Mighty Sparrow” Francisco, a Grenadian have been mornarch in TnT so many times?
this is interesting but these people are not giving Dice competition.
and if dice doesn’t win , people will say is robbery
skerrit not in power dice have no song
and for the Trinidad fella the rules of calypso in Dominica and Trinidad is different
the songs in t&t and Dominica are different trini have a sense of humour and Dominica is too throw maypwe even suing people for calling their name.. especially the aaron Stephan perform and was lyrically good thats why he made it to the final.. allu too dam bad!
atleast he praising it, you think he bound to be Dominica???
it have so many people who loves Dominica an undeveloped country and is fine by the living
the grass is not always greener on the other side….
Calpyso is to enjoy your self. you have poltics and religion killing the vibes.,
i didnt come here to read bout passport money and about fya empress
DANI, I am not sure I understand what you meant when you said the calypsonians chose their positions randomly. Did you mean they had to draw for their positions, as in a lottery?
If Dice doesn’t win again, they rob him… I giving allu early notice
All the way with daddy chess… U will always be the best..forward we go with DADDY CHESS….BRING HOME THE CROWN MY GOOD LOOKING BROTHER..
sounds like a man wrote this ….ijs
This years calypso finals should be free with drinks and refreshments all paid for by Skerrit with our passport money he and Monfared sold on the “My Dominica Trade House.” I mean people are very broke and, in respect to our late prophet Booplay, who sang about ‘Air Dominica’ last year and to see how fast air Dominica really crashed, I believe in honor of his prophetic song, Skerrit should just give the Carnival Organizers the proceeds from one diplomatic passport, maybe the one of Monfared and tell all Dominicans to come have some fun man to forget about all the stress and bad name he put Dominica under last two weeks man.
yes I LOL.
Going by the way judges performed in the semis which was clear that they were on a mission to cut off anyone they felt was close to undressing Skerrit, I fear for Dice though he has the best two songs by far and knows how to perform. I wishhim well for number 9, if the judges will. Dice again all the way man!
Pleeasse. it’s only a show that will be forgotten within 48 hours.
Lets be real Hard Head. You feel dice strong enough to win this year’s competition? Come on. Dice is copy and paste. IF Skerrit is not in power Dice will not even make it past eliminations.
Oh shut up give dice a break 8 times king copy paste my ass jealousy ..dice again who vex die we go bury dem nxt week
sacre tonair hahahhaha who got buried ?
As a none Dominican Stafan put a lot of pressure on our local calysonians because he would be out of place to criticize anything here, and therefore he knew all he had to do was sing a love song, though in his heart he might not be as deeply in love with everything he sang about. To me, with his song he should be in a group of none Dominicans alone, so each of them could sing their love song so we could see which one makes more sense. But to come in a calypso final giving the impression that all is well with Dominica when we all know it is false, is like a doctor giving his patient a clean bill of health when he and everyone knows the guy is sick unto death. Sorry Stafan, nothing against you but I just don’t think your lyrics is carnival material.
Wo yo yoy! Breathe my brother. you lost me after the first 2 lines.
you are so wrong. Uplifting lyrics. Go! Stefan!
Interesting that you mentioned nationality and qualification for participation in calypso . Trinibago calypso association just disqualified Fya Express from the finals on the basis that she is Vincentian.
ohhh i seeee……. dominicans like to embrace others and shun their own typical dominicans ….
As for me after 31 straight years of attending calypso finals I boycotting this year, first because I broke because though I am a laborite I am not part of the click that Skerro giving passport money to and secondly, I feel groos injustice was done to “Beno” whom I thought had the best song in terms of lyricks and his performance up to the semi finals.
As for that Stafan guy from TT, I cannot understand why he still in the race because I didn’t expect him to even get to the semi final. I mean I am not against him because he is not from DA but his lyrics is not carnival material since he does not address one issue in Dominica and he likes both Skerrit and Lennox, and all talk show hosts. Just because he says he loves Dominica and gives a false impression of Dominica like Monfared did with his ‘My Dominica Trade House’ when he talked about all the hospitals we had but only one on the ground? As far as I am concerned his song is ok for independence but not for carnival
You not no patat laborite…… Damn wolf ? in sheep ? clothing
cold hard truth you are so right. Damn imposter!!!!!!!!!!!
YES You are right on, correct correct is right!
so much hatred in the island is killing the nature island,
Does a song has to be political to be Carnival material in Dominica? This song is a breath of fresh air and yes a patriotic song is also carnival material.
I always thought the Reigning King performed last….. ohhhh k
De Wizzard should be invited to perform his track, it is only tribute to Eddie Andre.
Seems fitting in my opinion
Lets have Stefen have a dose of the medicine that T&T gave to the Lady calypsonian from St Vincent, file a court injunction because he is not a Dominican.
Choose or dip?
