What's Up with the Voting Public!

Posted by Keas on 10:12 PM 0 comments

So far i had been rather pleased with the Jamaican public when it comes to voting in competitions like the Heineken Green Synergy DJ Competition and the Digicel Rising Star Competition. Well, no longer, i'm shocked, flabbergasted even. What has been going on? My outrage stems from two newly received pieces of Information

1. DJ Khemist was voted out! DJ Rohan had about 2000 more votes? HUH what? Did no one listen to their semi-final playoffs? Did anybody listen to the same play off i did? Clearly not. I wasn't even doubtful that DJ Khemist had more skill than or at least displayed his skills better than Rohan. I'm rather concerned, he was poised to go on to the finals. There is at least one consolation; DJ Khemist will be going on to the regional finals as a wild card. So good luck Khemist...did mention the other dj got his votes from only two phone numbers? hmm i wonder what that means? I guess in that case i'm not really cussing the Jamaican public for this one..just highlighting the suggested/ alleged underhandedness of the Other DJ


2. Lenya Wilks is out of Rising Stars? Now this is even more absurd that the green synergy blunder. Lenya has proven at every single elimination that she is better, much better than the competition. She always had the right song, and did it very well. She never once missed! I'm still on shock over this one. Lenya was a shoe in for the competition. Meanwhile, Jodian Pantry is still in? What on earth is going on here. This can't be the same Jodian that for weeks upon weeks delivered below par performance. So she had what, about 3 good performances since reaching th top 10? I mean, seriously people, Lenya is just better, this is pure phuckery. Len

I think this is ridiculous! These competitions need to start having some judge input. Some other things need to be put in place. Like for example, one person can't be getting 90% of their votes from one phone! you know stuff like that! You can't leave it up to just the general public to decide, collectively clearly we not so smart. E.g. some sentiments people had about the results:
- she too full of herself so is a good thing she get vote off
- Anthony never ever find any thing wrong with her so people turn against her for that
Like what the...sigh...
