Glad the best performance and song won overall. Slashe (is his stage name aka Donald Anderson) and his entry 'Best In The World' were best in the competition. A well deserved win.
@nevilleforbes7897 Jenny Jenny is fantastic.She is a breath of fresh air such a happy go lucky girl and fab at everything she does fantastic dancer aswell.
Don't k ow who win yet. But I hope is Princess Black. Best song fi years. She reminds of Eric Donaldson, Toots Ray Rayon and Stanley. The good old time songs. That shows our patriotism
@@kattahb4103 my point is lost on you. Go listen to the songs of the persons I mentioned then you will understand. She is bigging up our country. That's why I love her song. That's my winning song.
The first time I heard Iceman song I choose it as the winner So I was not surprised or felt it was any curry favor why he won Even my young granddaughter who don't know Iceman when she heard the song she liked it
Some people is just bias just because the song win they saying that them know it would win, but to me and many other people that song should never be the winner not even in the in 4th spot it should be,because u have much better song in the competitions than it, everything now a days is like politics work with pull string
"Mama ja" OBVIOUSLY had more votes, even the people in the crowd was shouting mama ja, but i guess the judges were lookin at professionalism and choosing a winner who is capable to took it to a further level n so on, i think she would have won if she wasnt blind, but she my favorite,also the girl with the mento band
When I heard slash song I thought it was fitting for the times it’s very modern and patriotic, as much as I love the mento and ska sound we have to change with the times.
I didn't see Eric Donaldson up there after the winning song was been performed, I understand that he has a bad attitude when he doesn't win the competition.
The best song won. I loved princess black however, there are many aspects in the judging rubric: sound lyrics, arrangement, delivery, musicianship, etc. The best in the world is the BEST lyrics, the arrangement is catchy for both young and old. The best song the best choice
No it’s the song that resonates with the public. Nobody is able to say the title of the winning song or sing the refrain. That’s not the spirit of festival
@@Jamfete read my comment again. And in many circles the best in the world is resonating "876 is my area code try know that" public popularity is only ONE aspect of the rubric
It's all love not everyone will be happy. We're all jamaican whether young or not so young. Remember it's a MUSICAL singing writing competition. Enjoy the celebrations
876 is my area code try know that!!!! Slashe is the clear winner! The songs are not selected just based on vibes: performance has to sing well, the lyrics- how well the song was written and the flow and your performance the music behind it. Alot if these songs lyrics needed work. So don't hate on those the produced quality.
I was there. Everyone wanted Princess Black and Mamma JA to win. The crowd walked out in protest when they announced the winner. It was such a disappointing end to the night.
The meaning of festival is lost the culture is lost how can a reggae song win festival. The judges should have the final say. When I think of festival the chorus win. This competition lost its core.# Big up mama ja#jamaica mi born and grow #the wata lady in any oder would have been fair. I think this competition as come to an end goodbye 👋 #jamaicafestival
@petagayehutchinson9146 😂😂😂 Welcome back to Jamaica where we don't care about culture just give who we know keep it in the Circle (Jamaica A Mi Yad or Big Up Mama Ja) didn't even made the top three jcdc is a joke
Eric Donaldson can't compete with these younger singers, his voice is too weak. These singer sounds so good and strong, Eric Donaldson is no match, different league for the singers today.
Total scam. But what would you expect from a competition in Jamaica. The top three had the worst songs. Lady Denna, mento tones and princess black deserved to win. Now artist with good songs will now be discouraged from entering this corrupt competition.
