  • In True Trini Culture, when licks sharing, one has to be able to take some licks when giving licks.  If you enter the lion's den, then be prepared to get bite...  Lessons are to be learned by all going through the journey of life...

  • Words to the WISE, seek first to understand in order to be understood. DUVONE is a champion arranger and this young lady is a student who is a pan player... "So when a STAR MUSIC GRADUATE FROM UWI go on a CHAT SITE and go PASS ME and say that they NOT EVEN PLAYING THE ORIGINAL SONG for ah WHOLE FOUR MINUTES in the ARRANGEMENT (and even ISOLATE THE TIME) -- Yuh done KNOW who side of the argument I AM ON!!!"

    I work with student interns most of them studying cyber-security, while I can understand their knowledge gained in their studies for graduation, there's a saying having a degree doesn't mean you have an EDUCATION. A different point of view.

    • True ODW

      But tomorrow begins women's month. And sometimes it looks like 80% of the pan players in Trinidad & Tobago.are women. He could have used it as a teaching opportunity, not a scolding moment. Now instead of working with one very articulate woman, he now has over one billion potentially yelling at him. And they don't even know what a pan is.

      • Bugs: Ah hear yuh, I have a thirteen-year daughter and I engage her,  we can go toe to toe when it comes to different views on a given situation. I don't know why the young woman took-down her account on Facebook.

        My daughter may have a dispute with her teacher about her grade and I would tell her do you want me to talk to the teacher and her response is, NO I'll take care of it. Total ownership when it comes to SOLVING her problem. NOT afraid to ENGAGE.

  • If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.  The fyah might bun yuh, ent. ;-)

  • ALL arrangers must accept that the music they do is for public consumption...Not only for the judges only to mark up or down or not atall...This exchange between Duvone and Miss Adams also should inform all arrangers that knowledgeable people outside of their closed circle of worshipers do exist...This year's Panorama competition should also advise the old guard of arrangers that a new breed of young guns doing creditable work is out there waiting to steal their thunder...

    •  This pretty much says it all.MTTB.

    • Yea but Duvone's emotional response is coming across like he is telling the young lady to just shut-up and play your pan. It's not a good look in 2020 with such an intelligent young lady.

      • He should have just appreciated her contribution publicly and/or just continued the discussion privately.

      • Renegades wasn't even good finish taking off they PANORAMA CLOTHES

        ALL DEY IRON EXPOSE!!!

        TRUE BUGS!!! Even the LADY whole crew wondering why he took that arrogant posture and why he stooped so low to respond to her critique. If I was DUVONE'S publicist, I would have advised him to go patch it up with ALEXICA -- take her out for a DRINK or DINNER have a few pictures taken and turn the story into a PAN PHOTO OP for both sides and MOVE ON.
