2009 Pic-o-de-Crop Finals - Results

Red Plastic Bag Does it Again!!

And for the ninth time. The Bag, lyrical master or simply the red one has won the 2009 Pic-o-de-crop Finals held at the Kensington Oval on Friday July 31. Unfortunately Sunflower was unable to make it to the Oval but was able to watch it on pay-per-view.

The quality of the televised first half was a'ight. I am referring to the video and sound quality of the broadcast not the show. The first half of the show was boring too so that did not help matters. The second half found Sunflower and Christa (of The View According to Christa) fast asleep. There is nothing like sitting in front the tv in a Friday night with a bowl of unslated, unbuttered air-popped popcorn to send a posse to sleep. More on the popcorn and the show in a later post.

Here are the results:

Congratulations Red Plastic Bag!!

2009 Sweet Soca and Party Monarch Winner

T.C. takes the crown as the first Sweet Soca Monarch and also takes the Party Monarch crown from Khiomal as well.

Congratulations T.C. !!!!

Here are the results:



During an interview after the competitions TC told CBC that she would take this song (Hot Sun and Riddum) all the way. As stated in my semi-finals night commentary I did not have TC in the final 9. And I also wrote that she should have sung your party song. So I will be especially looking for her performance of Hot Sun and Riddum next Friday night. So good luck next week Friday at the Pic-o-de-Crop finals.

The 2009 Pic-o-de-Crop Final 9 are Announced

The Judges Decision is Final

In the wee hours of Saturday morning (a little after 1am) the results of the 2009 Pic-o-de-Crop semifinals were announced.

The 9 going to meet the 2008 monarch Adrian Clarke (in no particular order) are:

1. Red Plastic Bag - De Big Show
2. TC - De Big Show
3. Sheldon Hope - De Big Show
4. John King - De Big Show
5. Bumba - Headliners
6. Blood - Headliners
7. Sir Ruel - House of Soca
8. Hee Haw - House of Soca
9. Colin Spencer - All Stars
   

• Reserve: Tassa

So how did the Sunflower's 9 stack up against the NCF's?

We both agreed on RPB, John King, Sir Ruel, Blood, Hee Haw and Colin Spencer. That is 6 out of 9 or 67%. Whoohoo!! Sunflower rocks.

Sheldon Hope I had to possibly unseat one of the others. Bumba and T.C were not on my radar at all. Hind sight is 20/20 and looking back at the competition I can justify Sheldon's placement but not T.C.'s nor Bumba's. Friday night I did not see either of them bring their "A" game.

Congratulations to the nine contestants. Adrian is sitting on his throne waiting for you to try to unseat him.

Good Luck Adrian!! Watch out for The Bag!!
