In my opinion, i feel that the show is total garbage and its only for a favoritism campaign...its a total rip off of american idol and anthony miller is the worst impression of simon.......reasons why i hate the show
1. it getting lame- every year its the same rule with nothing new to catch viewers attention
2. the show should be renamed "young singing rising stars" its clear that their is a discrimination against age and genre......they dropped laden...obviously cause he was a Deejay and look where he is now, no1 in rising star has reached his height of success....also your age makes a difference.....if your young and u cant sing shit...more than likley your chances of going tru are greater than 50 year old woman singing her heart out
3. ANTHONY MILLER IS NO JUDGE----here u have 3 judges, one is a producer and the other is a singer, how the hell does a journalist know what sounds good????i understand that its his show but cmon leave the judging to professional ppl, they shud use ppl who are closer to music tahn anyone else, if its even a songwriter or an engineer, but a journalist is the worst excuse for a judge
can u believe that guy told gyptian in rising star audition that he should go back to plantinmg yams, singing is not his thing" and look where gyptian is.....mmm
4. RISING STAR DOES NOT HAVE A LONG TERM PLAN FOR THE WINNERS-----WHATS THE CURRENT STATUS OF CAVAN, RENAE, NODDY, CHRIS MARTIN, ONE THIRD AND ROMAINE
everybody has been stucked at one pace, this competition is only a means of advertising digicel and its not helping the artists..
