We have taken over the streets of Roseau, the capital city of Dominica, to find out what persons think and have to say on Dominica's Calypso Season 2018, its songs, and who will win the Calypso Finals this year. From the offset of things, there seems to have been a lot of mixed reactions on who will win and you know what that means right? That this is a great thing! Why? because it shows that calypsonians have chosen to step up their game! See... to challenge the likes of King Dice(8 time winner) and King Karessah(2017 Calypso King), you have to come good to beat these guys. Trust me when I say, the competition is really tight with some calypsonians coming back with rebuttals on the kings! haha! You have to love calypso! It's not only about the calypsonians who do a great job of delivering the performances though, we must also give huge kudos and props to the songwriters as well. It is they who take their time out to study and see what best way is their to portray thought to song and the artist singing it to deliver it perfectly. Just listening to the lyrical content this year... it sounds like everyone is coming for each others necks... in friendly competition of course.
We set out to find out which calypsonian has the most support thus far based of the songs that they put forth and we look toward seeing who will take the Calypso Finals 2018 crown here in Dominica. This is what individuals had to say in BrBpTV Street Shout. Enjoy!
