• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Last year around this time I came here Bright and early after the weekend To say that I went to the Fett of our lady of Fatima College and I don't know, that is a sparrigin' remark I was upset.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I was upset At the way Fatima Fett Is looking relative to St Mary's Fett.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I got a lot of calls salute Fatima Committee men, salute men like Peter Corby.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I got a lot of calls men telling me Well, the budget and the budget, and the budget.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: And I tell them if Cannaval have a budget, how'd the song go?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: If your budget, cannaval, is no money, he's going to say if you have no money in your pocket, then no money is the budget of Fett.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: When Fatima came out and Show people they said that budget Of no budget.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Fatima is Back to being the premier School in Trinidad and Tobago.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Press men go say Press was good.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: My press men tell me Fatima was great.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: St Mary's men go say Nobody said St Mary's was good, but I will tell you this Fatima Fett Is one of the best Fett's I've been doing In a long time.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Salute to the Fatima Committee.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: The show's on them still ugly.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: I have a problem with the show's on them.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: The show's on them still very, very, very, very ugly.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: We need to change that.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: And you know, the funny thing is there's where some Shoot.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: If you never went, fatima Fett, right, there's where some shoot, though when it's a remark.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Fatima, no way.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Nothing telling you it's a committee member, all you need is a Fett, as you just seen, I saw the man wearing the same shoot, which does not work well with White Oak, because I started to get very, very confused as some of the greatest happeners feel like the same person Passing over and over.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: So there was marginally Less ugly than last year.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: But let me do it for Fatima Fett.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: In that ugly shoot competition for the committee, the food was a line up in our Pork line for everyone.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: When I originally said pork done, I said I was a riot.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Inside there I ate some ox tail puff.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Then I went by a next boot that said Horse and pig tail, which I read wrong Because I thought horse was on this side of the boot and pig tail was on this side, but when the committee took.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: So when the committee took, I said, well, which one is this, horse or pig tail?
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: They say both the horse tail and the pig tail and the manor is horse tail.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Again, people, manor horse tail.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: See Horse tail.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: See it tastes good.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Whatever it was, it tastes good.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I ate much in all inclusive.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: So I'm probably the worst person to give you An all inclusive review because, ehhhhhhhhh, I just ate the simplest Food or the traditional.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I ate what available, wherever it was the fastest food I could get.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I just looked into a base, a little foundation, and set myself up for the Destruction that I'm going to do to my liver In so many quick times.

  Speaker 2: First and foremost, congratulations to all the finalists in the great Calypso Monarch.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: The Merry Monarch Calypso Fiesta was last week's Saturday.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: People called me with tickets for 40 months or couldn't go down in the Fiesta.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: But I watch.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: I watch what I watch on TV, I watch on YouTube and I had a long list of people beating in that Marshall Montana last week, including some of the people who on this list, but some of them they make it.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: So let me talk about and congratulate, first and foremost, if people make it right, aaron Duncan, in no particular order, right.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Aaron Duncan, brian London, helen Francis, kareen Ashey, kurt Allen, marshall Montana, mikal Tasia, chuck Gordon, gypsy and Stacy Sobers.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Congratulations them first and foremost.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Right, we must start with the good, begin with the good things, right.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: I try my best not to begin with the back and all and think, although they say Cannaval is back and all and back and all is cannaval, I believe that to be true at all times, but this was a little more back and all than I expected.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Only take any Calypso Fiesta.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Are we still living in the era where, when Calypso Fiesta going on, nothing else can happen In the house?
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: You know, coincidentally, cannaval weekend and Super Bowl weekend is the same.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: This week.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: This Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday and you find that in the States, with their culture right, when Super Bowl Sunday going on, the whole of the US is in Super Bowl mode, where there is all the bars and everything can be converted to be showing Super Bowl, the households ordering food, like food delivery and things, as I seen everybody having a house line and things.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: You know, calypso Fiesta kind of like we Super Bowl.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: That weekend is a weekend where everybody focused on it.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: I was talking about Pan being a festival, right, pan Semi's being a festival and but Pan is not something that easy for everybody to watch on TV the whole day.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: But Calypso Fiesta still seem to have the draw where you put it on on your Facebook.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: You know you get Facebook live on or you put on your TTT that was showing live on YouTube as well, or if you're still getting over the air TV, you put it on and going on, even if it's on the background in the house.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Because even people who don't like football in the States on Super Bowl Sunday in Super Bowl mode and I feel like Calypso Fiesta is our thing.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: You know I used to talk a lot in this podcast about Trinidad and Tobago, like in mediocrity, and I feel like our festival just shows how much we like mediocrity.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: We like mediocrity so much that the semifinals is always be a bigger draw than the finals.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: You do the maths right, check it out.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: But they're coming to talk big, right?
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: I say Myron B sure to beat him.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: I was talking about Marshall.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: I say Snakey, snakey.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Calypso about Calypso is better than Marshall Calypso about Calypso.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I say he bound to beat him.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Heaven, charles, salute Mr Shack.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Let me start with Mr Shack.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna start with Mr Shack, because that is where I was the most hurt and disappointed.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I was shocked as well, because Mr Shack come and draw the last spot and, unfortunately, by the time I had to, I had to go Fatima.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I forget, fatima is a really thing.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: By the time I had to go Fatima, I missed Mr Shack performance.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Now in back, and anyone that I missed I saw on how they call it.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I think, though, I went back on YouTube and I saw the performances right, but I was very, very surprised that matter of fact, when I saw the first list, the first person who sent me the list was a Marshall Messiah, who was on the last episode and I tell Marshall nah, that list's not real, that can't be real.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Too many people there left off.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: That was shoo-ins for me and a few, but a particular person there who I need to see the score in sheet to understand how that person outscore other people on that sheet.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: I still feel that way Now when I go back over the performances, and particularly it's a little Umari Ashby and DK Rostand right, I feel like it's a great job.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Well, umari do commentary in part of the show and then he do hosting in the next part of the show.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, man, it's getting money in the carnival.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Ha ha ha ha.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Money is sharing in the carnival, right.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: But Umari make a good point that the what the judge is judging is the performance and not the song.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Now I make the fatal flaw last week of judging the songs and saying all these songs better than Marshall.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: In many, many ways, marshall songs right, but on the night on the day I was reminded by Umari that the judges have to almost forget how big this song is and them kind of thing and start from scratch to judge what is presented to them on the night of the show.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: So without seeing Mr Shark perform, knowing how he's perform and knowing the fact that he closed Calypso Fiesta, I say well, shark, had it destroyed.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: The P'Karin Ashifus and Mr Shark last, which to me could be one too in any order for this month.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Right Now that I wanna read some from Mr Shark here.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Long post alert right, it's a long post.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: He say it is impossible to measure the overwhelming quantity and quality of support, confidence and love received and that continues to be shown for the return Namely song was the return right?
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I continue to be absolutely humbled and encouraged by all of it.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: From all of you, lovely people, I have heard and seen comments and expressions of disappointment, et cetera, over what was perceived to be a glitch by the band during my performance at Caiso Fiesta last evening.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I want to make this categorically clear.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: The accompanying band is one of the best and the most professional that Fiesta has ever had, consistent of the most expert and accomplished musicians.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: You know I must do something to mess up this thing, right.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: I wanna make this categorically clear.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: The accompanying band is one of the best and most professional that Fiesta has ever had, consistently the most expert, accomplished, passionate and professional musicians who do their endeavor best to ensure that each and every performer receives the best possible accomplishment.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: So so that even if there was any minor slip which they can and are entitled to make from time to time as human musicians I want to assure you all it most certainly would not have been responsible for any fundamental errors on my part during my performance.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: I want to show you all, it certainly would not have been responsible.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Also, it's not it's not a blame, then, for any fundamental errors on my part during performance.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I simply did not execute as well as I am capable of doing and what I have done, plain and simple, the band is not and cannot be responsible for my unforced slip-ups.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: All I said, we live to step into the guile another day to continue to uphold and represent and defend this magnificent culture at form, people and country, whether in season or outer season, in competition or not.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: And I can only hope that all the love and support shown isn't only because a carnival or competition or the presence of certain superstars and he makes it say I mean Shaq, you self, shaq all is about good percentage and he loved that is due to Superstars and he makes this here, but I hear him.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: But that can be endured beyond all of that as it should in this Kaiso nation from us Kaiso people.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Salute to Mr Shaq.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: We can't wake up feeling our way and honestly I couldn't believe that.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Mr Shaq, that was the most glaring omission for me.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: But I went and I watched your performance and after this post I started to notice some issues in the performance.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Now he as a professional musician and I suppose as a front line saying I don't make no sense blame any band, I think is even more useless.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Blame any band when the band has to pay for 41 people and then your song is not, because if your song was Bim Bam, right, any musician on that stage could sleep and play Bim Bam.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Anybody could play that musicians could play that in their sleep and in that song to which is uncomplicated if the musicians make a mistake, it probably ain't a trio of much, because as a singer, right, you could sing that whole day like Salute.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: There are a few people who come out and say Salute, chromatix.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: A few people say what, just why?
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: I was saying that there's a little bit of an elementary Calypso.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: This Calypso was designed for like telco, calypso, competition and TNTech, monarch and them kind of things.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: But so if you, if you, if the band make a little mistake in a song like that, it can't really.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: But I will say that the Mr Shark typical style of composition is not, it's not straightforward, is usually well-tortured pieces of music that musicians are the play-play and if you make a mistake, it could, it could try off.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: And I saw where he make a little mistake and but the mistake comes so rough in one of the first verses of the song so I could understand where.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Going back to where Mari was saying that I have to, I can't judge his song after judge what you do on the night.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: And if you, if you leave out a big party of punchlines in the first part of the song well, so, well-designed, it go work against you, boy.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: And I saw the Rondonga points and I feel like what it means to is that even with with Shaq slip, because he make a mistake and didn't get into the punchline, he had never haven't to repeat a part of the song.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: He done make the mistake already here when he realized he make the mistake and at that point I had to go with it.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: And you cannot redo the verse right because you have a time limit.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I'll tell a little story.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: When I was going Fatimo and I went a calypso competition.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: There was one time I forget a part of the verse, so it's like the song have four verses.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: But in his second verse it was done gain me troubling the rehearsal, to be honest, right, it was done gain me troubling the rehearsal.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: And I went on stage in the second verse and maybe it's in my mind and I miss the cue for the second verse.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, I hope I'm getting into technical, but it's out of the verse where you had to come in with the line early.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: So if you miss the word early and the beat catcher, you're dead.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: So I end up singing the second.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: I think I sing the energy third verse instead of the energy second verse, which killed my punchline for the third verse anyway.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: And I didn't study in time and thing I in school.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: So I said, nah, that verse bad.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: So when the verse come back around I sing over the second verse.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Right, and when I sing over the second verse I make the exact same mistake.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: I think that put me firmly in.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I must be comfortable or something.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: And that is the worst I ever come in at Calypso competition in school.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: I couldn't recover from it and then, of course, when I reach it to the verse now, it's song like if I repeat the same thing three times.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: So Mr Shaktan Godia the presence of mind to just repeat the first part of the first verse and move on to the rest of verses, because salute to him.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: The rest of verses was bad that that that no people might underestimate this right.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: If you go back to Mr Shaktan performance and you listen to the last verse, he say he don't call people name.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Right, and I wonder if sometimes that could work against you don't end up like crook run, nobody know, two fifth there.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: But that last verse in Mr Shaktan performance, the last verse we hear for Calypso Fiesta 2024, is a masterpiece because crook crook gets two last week and had this set.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Well, not so last week, but the settlement came last week where he had to pay in challenge me and shak put together a verse there about justice super sad and how justice super sad saw that ruling and rule against crook run, telling you what Calypso supposed to have on that.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: So salute.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: I hear on marie say something about one of the performers in the show, one of the performers whose song well, I play this song.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think I'll play this song, but I want I'll go back to the song.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Right, the song itself and the performance of the song to me was so powerful in terms of just just the fellow style.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: A fellow by the name of Hammond, bruce Hammond, have a Hammond, have a afro and a smile that cannot be beat.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: If left to me, he in the final I put it in see me either.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Businessman, I had to make a show.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I cannot make a.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: I was talking to my father the day the day and he said boy, calypso Fiesta, a ma show is a lime.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: You can't just make it a competition for me.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: I try.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: I study in the Sunday night now in the savannah I had to put on the greatest show on earth, any greatest show on earth, to kick off the greatest show on earth.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: You get what I'm coming from.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: So I trying to make a show.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: I try, with all them judges and things, all that going out the window for me and I picking who I want to pick, right.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: So I tell him I shall have to be in me, culture has to be in and I will have to, with all respect, to make a leisure because I have a great song.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: I believe at this point he definitely gonna win the road march.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: He go and win everything it has to win.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: If it had a calypso, how they call it in the Friday night again.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: So come on, I'll give a winner to that.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Song is huge, right, but if they're judging the performance on the night, I don't think mechal teja had the greatest performance on the night.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: I think the same thing I was saying about.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: So artists constantly going up there like hype men and and belting out the first line, the first word in the line or the catchiest word in the line and line, the background vocals, which is pre-recorded, do for them.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: It work against him on the night because I don't know if he wasn't hearing or anything.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: That great singer and everything, but he was.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: He was off key, he was all over the place.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: It wasn't song and good, it was not a great performance and it didn't sound good.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: And of course, now when you're accustomed to playing a song or singing a song over a record, too much like you hear this right from time you hear that in a fed the fed going in a frenzy have you got jumped in the morning when you don't have them elements because again your car just come and play the track is a judged competition and the guitar man had to play that and song like it did not sound good.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: It wasn't the best performance ever, but I suppose he had a pretty biggest song on the night.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Omer rick could say it's not about the song, but I suppose they had to put the show, you know.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: I mean they had to make the show good and make alteja in that show makes it a better show, marshall in that show makes it a better show.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: I think, with all fairness, karina Shea, cardi Knight, have some calypso's you, cardi Knight, there, a few of them are all played that I didn't get a chance to play yet.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: But you see, you see that fella they call Hammond Bruce.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: I just want to salute to him because he picked up to me what is the essence of calypso and kaiso and pick up the essence of skin up.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: He was singing a political commentary about Trinidad and Tobago and Trinidad is not a real place, a statement that I don't like, but that's how he's saying it.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: And when he said Trinidad is not a real place and he have a weird way of singing where he's lived the last word in the line hanging for long.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that will work for him in competition or something.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: But men like he need to be in show because them themselves is a show and them themselves is a vibe.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: I mean he come completely off the beat to say Marshall singing a primary school calypso.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: I don't think he should have said that because I think Marshall on the night on so Calypso Monarch night, which I come to eat back on my words because I think Marshall is going to win and I think he probably deserved to win.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: No, right, I change everything I say too long.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: But they say all earlier, you and chromatics and everybody who say Marshall is going to come and say I'm singing a primary school calypso and I beat all earlier who doing primary school performance, all early early set them up to say something that might push him over the edge if anybody was close to him on the night they go, have problems.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: They have a few other people I want to salute to.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: I want to salute to Michelle Henry.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Michelle Henry is an impressive young lady, a tranquil woman right, not tranquil as in her style.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: You know she's tranquil in style too, but she went tranquil right as my tranquil mate and, I know, as a great saxophonist, so it's called that a saxophonist.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: I've had saxophones.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: I can't blow it for nothing, it was against my nature.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: But I see her and I don't want to pre-empt, to welcome, to talk about, but I see her on the stage in Calypso semis and then blowing saxophone for the X tempo competition.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: Salute to Michelle Henry.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Bad, bad, bad saxophonist and me know she have all her voice.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: She's a woman.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: You don't even hear her talk.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: I never really hear her say much, you know, but she was very good.
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: Gart Sinclair again Gart Sinclair is.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Salute to him and what he was able to accomplish on the night.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Taking to me Gart Sinclair's song again was was the essence of the monarch.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Again it picked up essentially what the monarch is about.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: So what, what?
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: What Gart Sinclair sang about is the national anthem and so picking up parts, several parts of the anthem and basically breaking down what it says versus where is the actual reality on the growing internet, that and Tobago.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: It was well put together by stuff, full composition and so on.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: In some ways some parts of it was a little bit repetitive, but overall I think is a beautiful concept for a song and just Gartin Claire being there.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Gartin Claire has always been our inspiration to me.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: If you don't know, gartin Claire used to be on the radio and a show called I, independence.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: He's still on the radio now, 95.5, and talks openly about his recovery or comeback from being a drug addict to being an upstanding citizen who could help a lot of people and so on.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: I find that his performance was impressive and I was just glad that he was there to represent for people who are sort of a comeback story.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: It reminds me a lot of Wayne Chance and what Wayne Chance had to go through.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: A recent piece of Wayne Chance basically coming back from being a prisoner and coming into one of the.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: It's coming back into a space where people don't look upon their life favorably.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: They kind of look down on you and opportunity could be scarce.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: But Wayne Chance came out not just to be upstanding citizen and radio personality and all that, but to found our organization called Vision and Mission, which was designed to help people who would make jail abroad and get deported, help them to reintegrate into society.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: So Gartin Claire presents they was meaningful to me, along with a young man by the name of Romel Lazama.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: My name is Reel Toke.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: No, it was a Calypso name, reel Toke.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: I think the Calypso name is Reel Toke, his name is Papamel.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Sorry, one day I will get right on this podcast, but Romel Lazama Papamel is also somebody who would have come out of the prison system.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, he started his performance coming out of our jail and it was symbolic of the fact that last year he performed in the Calypso semis while he was still a prisoner and those things so moving to me.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, when you have stories like those, you could talk to youth forever and ever, because one thing the Calypso monarch is never short of is wailing on a nation of teeth and lamentations and holding off belly and dropping on knees.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: You're gonna get all that on you there, but nothing beats an example, a story like Gartin Claire or a story like Papamel, who came out there and he deliver a moving performance.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: And again, remember, if I had a pick in this competition, I pick in based on show.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: So Papamel is definitely one of the men who will be my show, because I tell you, listen, come and meet a man who was locked up last year and he commented telling about real talk, and he was basically telling you he had to talk real talk to these youths.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: You can't come and butt up nothing to them or talk like no politician or no big business man on all these things.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: There's some other honorable mentions I have.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: If I have these things line up in advance, it will happen faster.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: But there's a woman by the name of Nakasso.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: What's her name?
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Again, nekasa Tacho.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Right, I like Nekasa Tacho.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Calypso Bad.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Again, I feel like it is the essence of the monarch, because she takes an issue that is live, an issue that we're dealing with today, an issue that went viral just the other day, and she makes it into something great.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Well, it might if I play a little piece on Nekasa Tacho for all of you.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: I like it bad.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: Do you know where the station is?
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: St Joseph's station.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: Yes, so why you want to come in?
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: and make up for my reports.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Going to truth.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Thanks, thanks, one, huh, I say thanks.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: So for those of you who are not following right, there are these things where a man called the St Joseph police station to say he don't get robbed and he waits in for the police and the woman say you don't know where the police station is, so all you got to do is sit down and wait.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: All you got to do is come to the station and she gets transferred, and we covered that here a couple of episodes ago.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: But here on the castle, tacho teached her that, or treated with it.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: She dressed up as a policewoman taking the phone calls.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Where, here just now, was her sitting down in front of the desk?
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: Mark, st Joseph police station?
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: And she dressed up as a policewoman taking the phone calls here, kaiso.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Cause police are not real pressure with crime here in this country A little rough from the edges.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, I might sound rude on the phone, but all I try is to say is police are fighting crime alone.
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: So find a station, find a station, send your location, your location, to make your report.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: Take your report.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Go away from my escort.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: When the bandit come, where ever do.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: When the bandit go, where ever do you just get set on and wait for police to call you.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: It's time we stop asking what the hell the police can do.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: All you come and pull all your weight.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: Help all the police do.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: Yes, if I rude and rude.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: If I rude and rude.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: If I rude and rude when I talk to the fella, I was out of it Me a go lie.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: It's when the prostration was mixed up.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: In my reply I tell them I have problems.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: So I ask for time off to grieve.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: The boss tell me sit down there.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Police are getting all these.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: So find a station.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: Find a station.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Send your location, your location.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: Come make your report.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Make your report.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Go away from my escort.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: When the bandit come, where ever do?
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: When the bandit go, where ever do you just get set on and wait for police to call you.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: It's time we stop asking what the hell the police can do.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: Crime fighting is a partnership of God.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: Help all the police.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Do yes, if I rude, yes, Find a station, send your location.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: That's Kaiso you did a student so fresh and so new to everybody.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: That thing happened this year.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: That thing happened couple weeks ago.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: She put together Kaiso.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: You come and sing it.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: It's still a current topic.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: I think it had something to say for that.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: And again, if I had to pick my 12 to go in the final, nakasa, tatcha, k-a-be all to the final for me, because other songs important, they have one in particular.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I want to play that.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: I sorry I didn't play last week.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Maybe I underestimated the man who sing this song, but when you have tune like that, again it's primary school.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Calypso Ba ba da, ba da, bi da da, da, ba ba da bi da bi da da da Ba ba ba da bi da da da Ba ba ba da ba bi da da da.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: We can do, we can do.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: We can do.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: It can't be that it's a primary school calypso, but this song come out so clean and it's so Relevant to what we're talking about is a very hard song to deny and if I had a pick of that short 12 people, she'd have been definitely one of the people there.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: And it makes me wonder to.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: When he has simple chaiso like that, when I see him as a shark, put last place.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe if I put last place in Calypso Fiesta, I go back to him in primary school and when they've shark have a couple primary school calypso, he haven't even talked to me.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: Because when I say I put last place on musician, tired and taken me, ain't going to know songs too complicated, the man at the first to play, you know.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: I go and say here what's going on.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Your location, yes.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: Your police station, yes, no.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: Long duration, yes, no, no.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Hateration.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: I come in simple in the dance and all of them catch me lacking at all.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: Now I do want to play another one from a man who I should have never underestimate and I want to say salute to culture video okay, culture with a K right on YouTube who quickly uploaded all the Calypso Fiesta videos so I could take these things back in retrospect because some of them are out of mis.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: I say I fed him but I'm just looking like it's illegal to her.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: But the power of this song is what I want to play and the fact that you could do very heavy topics or cultural topics.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Salute to Hamon Bruce again for taking a very heavy topic about Trinidad not being a real place and the roads bad and the crime bad and all them kind of thing and making it into a very enjoyable song, not just for the audience who was at skinner park but the people watching on TV and so on.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: But I'm an estimated this man and I want to play with this song fair, with a message that is so, so important.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: This is Jack.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: I'm a bad genre, Calypso.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: They say that.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Which makes me the charm of Alio believe from criminal people and kill the family's demanded investigation still.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: But when I say you this day in outlet, that is the time to invest the look before the start jumping people, get.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: That is the time to investigate.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: When your children passing the elder straight, that is the time to investigate.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: When bad company start to infiltrate, that is the time to investigate.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: You can't wait till the end.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: The forensic center abuse the police and try them for murder.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: What your children have bloodstained on their hands to let the launch investigation.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Parents, stop costing the police to have the launch the first investigation.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Now the real state of emergency.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: There come love, there come love.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: There's too much parents feeling in their duty.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's too much of crime.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Show.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: It's not true with the police and army.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: They're only, they're only can replace parental responsibility they're only fix it.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: I can't play the old thing I be can't play.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: And to take a trip to the book Kurt Allen and I want to read fairly, points right on Calypso Fiesta, where to eat back all my words right.
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: Points are coming from the bottom.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Come a pause.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Cast on Cuba 12 with 254.

  Speaker 2: Aaron Duncan 262.
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: Macalteja 262.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: Now I see I again.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: I understand what judges is be looking for.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: You know, because I saw Aaron Duncan performance live on TV.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: I watch Stacy soba's and I watch Macalteja's travel a lot and all three of them are 262.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Then shreddy breakdown how how the point split up it.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Karen Asher 264.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: This is fourth place now.
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: Kurt Allen with that song 267.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: Now again when it comes to delivering.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: And then there's not much.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: They're going to separate Karen Asher from Kurt Allen there.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: It will be hard to find two people as comfortable on a stage as two of them.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Kurt Allen singing like he home and it's hard to describe.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: He do a little sketchy walk out to the edge of the stage and just rocks skin up.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: And Karen Asher, when they need hot sun, dress up nice.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: She must be sweat and just went out and perform a song and it's a wrap.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: They don't want to issues on stage.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: Helen Francis, with 272, tipped up to this point, to be the monarch, I would.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: I would have taken it.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Would it be between, without, without knowing enough about the song that Kurt Allen sing to me?
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: It was between the two of them and I would have taken it would be the monarch, based on his song itself.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: But again, when you hear Kurt Allen or Helen Francis, them fellas would be up there regardless.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: And number one, marshall Montano, by 278, beating the closest person to him by a clear six points.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Right, I look into these numbers here.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: And between two positions.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: So I going from one to 12.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: I understand what I'm saying, right?
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Remember how I say Michael Damien, the judging was tight, right, karen Asher beat them with 264.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: She was right, they righted the people.
• 39:43
