As a Jamaican, I’ll always give credit to Trinidad — they’re the originators and true pioneers of carnival culture, no doubt. That’s not to take away from what Jamaica or any other island has brought to the table, but the roots run deep in Trini soil.

Actually none of this debate is coming out of Jamaica. We were not comparing but Trinidad feels threatened. We did what needed to be done and we are on to the next. We don't need no soca monarch.

You have to understand the power of social media. Those ppl were putting it out there on social media hoping it would stick but it didn't this time. You say something often enough on social media and eventually it becomes "truth"

As a Jamaican who has been attending carnival… I wish we could just have the fun without comparing lol. It was the newspapers (who don’t know anything about participating) as local revellers know to not compare jamaica carnival to trini carnival lol embarassing

It’s because carnival is our culture. You can take away pretty mas in TT and carnival would still exist bc it’s not root of the celebration.

you would get a wider variety in music in Jamaica BECAUSE Jamaican culture is DANCEHALL/REGGAE. T&T Cultre IS SOCA AND CALYPSO.. We here listen to Dancehall MORE than Soca so around carnival time they

Jamaica Carnival hasn't been as big that's why it's cheaper. One year I can't wait to attend

Cultural aspects are missing because carnival only started in Jamaica in the 1990's, it is not Jamaica's culture. Carnival started in Trinidad in 1780. yes 1780. it is Trinidad's culture
