The following nine calypsonians got the nod from the judges to move on to the finals of this year’s calypso competition.
The nine selected at last night’s semi-finals now have the opportunity to wrest the coveted crown from reigning monarch Trila-G.
They are:
Tasha P
Dice
Bobb
Webb
Joy
Shanice
Liberator
Black Diamond
Checker
In the video below, Emcees Marja Stedman and Alex Bruno make the announcement.
Why is Webb a finalist using the refrain from another song? Unbelievable!
What about calypsonians who come with recycled lyrics, what are your thoughts on that, singing about the same issues every year but in different ways
If the issues are still relevant and I want to sing about them, I had better do that in a different way. But to have the refrain from another song? That’s a totally different ball game.
Doe dig ma boy Webb is probably one of the best ‘singers’ on the scene. You heard his song ‘…. A Good Good Man’ a few years ago, de man have potential for replay even outside of carnival too đź‘Ť
