I didn't expect a good soca monarch because there are no quality songs this year...but what I saw last night was terrible..

You would think by now Ricky T would have stepped up his game after gaining some exposure overseas. That performance was terrible and he wouldn't place anywhere else in the world with that. Even though some of the other artists might not have international experience there are many other avenues to study and get pointers from other islands' performances. All they have to do is go on youtube.

They need to cut down the number of performances to 10 or less. Right now it looks like anybody who is brave enough to perform a song gets a place in the soca monarch finals. Last night soca monarch just set our music back 5 years. They need to go back to the drawing board.

I actually liked nintus the gospel man performance. Had good energy.

I agree with that. But even though you have some shitty songs you can at least come up with some good presentation and I eh see that at all last night. Ricky T ting was BS. A whole heap of dead time... I was like what the heck is going on and da man win that? Dang!

The dude with the bush setup was on point. He had some folks in the crowd going ape shyt for his tune. I don't know who the lady was that started it off with the slow joint but it got on my nerves after a while. Esteban was...meh. I was diggin the Transformers joint but then the song was missing something...a lil more punch in it. I don't know who that chick was in the red that was singing "don't look for meh" but she was nice. Superman and T.J.'s performance was creative. The place was mad for their performance. The M.J. bit = AAAAAAAASS!!! Boooo!!! As for the Lucian Homie The Clown, nice tune. Isla Man = Just plain...pandemonium. People went just plain nuts for his joint. I think that joint would probably get over in TNT..maybe during Carnival Time. Put Isla Man and Bunji together on that money back track...damn. The tune TC (the dude with blue face paint) sung was hot. Real truth being spit on that one. Private 6 was promising...but missed something. Mashed the front rows up though. Ricky T's performance...*sigh*. What can be said that hasn't already been said. Great song, crowd was rabit for it....then the FIYAH!!! That there was just...omg...and...why. lol For my first time everseeing Qpid, I have to say it was real good. Nice song, ppl went nuts, and the bit before the song was nice. Too bad she ain't get her wataman...lol Great show. The blad guy that was MCing was funny as hell at times. But in truth, Isla Man really should've won it honestly. Ricky had everyone going nuts but Isla Man was just flawless in his performance. The show of unity at the end was classy. They should've gotten superman in on the action though. Anyway, not a great monarch, but a good monarch. Probably third behind SVG and TNT this year.

There were many complaints by the artists about the sound quality and the fact that the monitors were placed behind the artists to make space on the stage..as stated before, disappointing show..not expecting much from the upcoming Caribbean Soca Monarch either. Skinny Fabulous has a good chance of taking that one.
