THE BASHMENT SOCA POT just got sweeter for the finalists. But the monarch will have to settle for a little less food on his plate. In the second year of the competition, organisers 4D Entertainment have made some adjustments to both the prizes and the rules.
Last month, some of the finalists raised some concerns about the cost of their production and input to enter the competition versus what they got for this Crop Over Festival event.
The artistes who spoke to SATURDAY SUN yesterday welcomed the increased appearance fee from $500 to $2 500 for the finalists.
