Dr Hollis Liverpool, also known as Chalkdust, who placed sixth, said “Kurt Allen is a good boy and he had a good song.” “Calypso is an art to be judged. I always accept the judges’ decision. I did not get to see the performance, though.”
De Fosto: It was awesome
Calypsonian Winston Scarborough, fondly known as the Original De Fosto Himself, says reigning monarch Kurt Allen’s song Too Bright was “awesome.” But he was concerned whether second place contestant Brian London broke the rules by having fellow kaisonian Brother Valentino sing an entire verse and chorus before he came on stage.
