Overall, the theme of the night was to respect the legends and to hear great music in a vintage clash, and to that, it was for me a great success. I think it was merely poorly thought out, but not designed to play favorites). But that is the doing of the promoters (and, in my opinion, not a malicious doing. If the structure had been different, Jammys wouldn’t have survived the early stage of the clash. They rewarded the sounds when they played well, and denied them when they didn’t play well, regardless of where the sound came from and how much history backed the sound. For me, that showed that the crowd was genuine, and not merely playing favorites. It was hard watching him get booed in the early rounds, so it was nice to see the crowd give him plenty of love in the Tune Fi Tune segment of the competition.

The rules were a bit suspect, but if the end result is that King Jammy gets a comeback win, I cannot be mad.
