In previous weeks it was Jonnah who saved Castle Blue, but at Saturday's staging, it was Glamity who stole the show at the Magnum Kings and Queens of Dancehall. When Glamity took the stage at D'Entrance, Constant Spring Road, in army outfit and boots, she immediately caught the audience's attention. And with no care in the world about being on the rhythm, she attacked fellow contestants in a song called Talk. The response from the audience spoke volumes and the judges were also pleased with her performance. "Yuh just war dem and mi like how yuh war dem. Yuh a chump," guest judge Ricky Trooper said. Skatta was also impressed with her lyrics and said she identified "weakness bout every opponent and yuh use it." creativity Another female contestant, Makarie, was also well-received, especially when she mixed a bit of Spanish into her song. Skatta commended her on her melody, while Miss Kitty lauded her creativity. "It is very obvious that you put thought into what you are doing. I like how you come out different. I see the maturity and growth in your lyrics and I hear it in your presentation," she said. Earlier in the night Jonnah defeated Mad Attitude and also impressed the audience with his second stint. Dressed in pyjamas and a pillow in hand, he sang about his dreams. "You come out with your theatrics, but people take you seriously. I am happy that you are still in this competition and it is well deserved," Miss Kitty said. Real Steel deejayed on a slow, old-school beat and was told that a more uptempo beat would have been better. Meanwhile, Halonie, who went to more than 20 auditions before being selected, showed a lot of improvement. "Yuh grab mi attention wid dem lyrics deh. Yuh find the authentic dancehall things fi seh as a singer," Skatta said. Konfydence's outfit stood out, but she had problems with her breathing. Payne, on the other hand, was impressive with his lyrics, delivery and ability to keep the audience's attention. Shack was youthful, but Miss Kitty said he needs more punch lines and his song could have been rearranged. The show ended with Darrio, who sang Parrot and Siddung.
