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.
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
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.
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
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.
"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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
Every I hear This is the land of my birth, I get emotional. Proud to be 🇯🇲
My Jamaica is the best🇯🇲..love my Jamaica like how i love myself 🇯🇲
Jamaica me born and grow this is the winning song
Mi love mi country, an mi ppl dem 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸.
Big up MAMA Ja. Love dat song. 😢😢😢😢😢
Should have won.
Politics at least second politics donovan germaine songs finished top 3 crap

The female mc get my vote she was spectacular and lovely 🥰
Real talk Nevilleforbes

Wrong festival choice again, why Jamaican always gets it wrong. The Mento should be the winner by far... Jamaica mi born and grow

Mr Levi's prize shd have gone to Princess Black w/Mama Ja. The1st n 2nd I won't make rukus about.
Well deserved winner, Jamaica in my blood. Well written song
Love Slashe whole outfit .just his outfit alone he has to win one love ❤️ my brother
Well deserved, performance and lyrics on point. The rhythm carry the right energy and vibes. Congratulations Slashe and Germain. Fortis!!
Eric should have had someone else sung his song. Voice is weeker than earlier years. Good song though
Lightbuzz, a good observation. He could have done just as you suggested. Leave di singing alone!
My exact thought. Great song but his voice is getting weak with age
I agree. Loved him back in the day.
Thr Blind lady should've won.. her song was on point...lyrics was good n it was very festival like
I totally agree
Politics same producer donovan germaine top 3 bullshit

How can a song like big up mama Ja not win. Where is the love for our country. The whole purpose of the festival Song contest was lost on the judges

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
So you have to be old to be patriotic? Or the song has to have old time stuff in it to be patriotic? Nonsense!

Truth .. the song was well written … the lyrics gave the best description of ja and it gave off the Jamaican pride feeling the best… in my opinion
People dem too stush an deaddy deaddy
So true

Love it!
Don't worry about watching a waste of time
All the artist them just a follow fashion can't think for them selves

Eric maybe the oldest but act younger
No sah! a the worst set a crowd this, dem nuh have not even an ounce of energy or vibes...way too darn boring!
I like the song that won.

Back in the 60's and 70's ska and reggae sounding songs won which was the sound that time so...
Chrry oh shouldn't bw a festival song
That's the best songs the female they never really come out
