Yvonne Jack:
I really like the picks for this year. I especially like Bump-Iâs song and he is the one I am backing.{{more}}
McCarthy Smith:
I think the picks could have been more challenging and more competitive rather than some of the names they have. The judgesâ decision is final though. I-pa and Rejector will be strong competitors for the reigning monarch, Fya Empress.
Kenneth Samuel:
I donât really take part in the calypso, but I think the calypso standard needs to be raised. I just wish all of them the best. I know it will be great competition.
Rawltie Lowe:
I believe there should have been two other persons included in that ten. I just have to be satisfied with the judgesâ decision. I think Fya Empress still has the edge and the other calypsonians will have to come up with two good songs to beat her, because she is very good. I still have her as the winner until the final night.
Dave Roberts:
I have no problem with the picks. I am glad to see some young people coming onto the scene. Some of them have some calypsos that make sense. I see some of the veterans didnât make it. Maybe itâs wake up or send home call for them, but I think itâs good for the art form. I really like Bump-Iâs calypso. That seems to be a favourite right now.
