At the 25th anniversary of Sting, there were many artistes who performed well. On the other hand there were some who felt the disapproval of the Sting crowd. Hence, The STAR compiled its 'boo' and 'forwards' lists for Sting 2008.
The following lists were done in no particular order.
The 'Biggest Forwards' list
Beenie Man
His set might have been the same as the one done at many shows, but he still managed to get may be the largest positive response from the Sting crowd.
Kip Sick!
He was one of the surprises for the night when he launched an attack against members of Monster Empire.
I-Octane
His 'forwards' came in the form of huge flames across the venue.
Merciless
He got 'forwards' for attacking and insulting Ninja Man, Cobra, Bounty Killer and Munga Honourebel.
Lady G
She was in good form, getting huge cheers before entering the stage.
Laden
The crowd erupted and sang along to Time To Shine and the good response continued throughout his performance.
Queen Ifrica
She must be commended for settling the crowd after the first stampede.
Spice
Her set was average until she did her Rampin Shop collaboration with Vybz Kartel, that had the crowd in a frenzy.
Blak Ryno
He had the crowd repeating 'see it deh'.
Flippa Mafia
He got his 'forwards', not necessarily for his deejaying skill, but moreso for the foreign currency and expensive liquor he threw around.
Pamputtae
She got 'forwards' for her raunchy lyrics.
Assassin
He was in all glory; giving a full performance.
The 'Boo' list
Monster Empire
Round Head, Ghost and General B were being booed before they entered the stage. This could not be avoided.They were not present to answer to Kiprich's call for a clash.
Bounty Killer
He was getting his share of 'forwards' until he said that he would not clash anyone. At that point, the boos resounded.
Junie Platinum
The crowd was not liking her 'Kumbaya' and 'gun' lyrics.
Zebra
The tense audience was not willing to tolerate 'seh she waan di Ras' and booed Zebra offstage.
Bling Dawg
He did not get a chance to try as he was booed on entry.
Aidonia
He was well received initially, but after a while the crowd seemed tired of him and started booing.
Mikey Pelpa
He was a brave soldier as he stood onstage in Vybz Kartel's home, Portmore, and said, "Me turn the Gaza into plaza." The boos came quickly afterwards.
Patra
The last time she performed at Sting was in the 80s. But this time she mistook the people
clapping her offstage for positive applauding.
Ninja Man
He got a little boo on entry while saying "me come yah fi kill". But it was not sustained as he quickly asked the crowd to decide the winner of the Mavado versus Vybz Kartel clash.
