Dr Hol­lis Liv­er­pool, al­so known as Chalk­dust, who placed sixth, said "Kurt Allen is a good boy and he had a good song." "Ca­lyp­so is an art to be judged. I al­ways ac­cept the judges' de­ci­sion. I did not get to see the per­for­mance, though." For 2011, he vowed "among the 14 con­tes­tants, you will be sure that once Liv­er­pool is alive, I'll be there next year."

In a pre­vi­ous in­ter­view (Feb­ru­ary 11), Liv­er­pool said he was look­ing close­ly at ca­lyp­so­ni­ans Win­ston Scar­bor­ough (De Fos­to), Bri­an Lon­don, Kurt Allen and new­com­er Nicole Greaves. Liv­er­pool had de­clared it was a con­test be­tween song­writ­ers and those who bought their songs. He had claimed 90 per cent of the fi­nal­ists bought their songs. Allen tri­umphed with his com­po­si­tion Too Bright.
