Exclusive NCF Bull
“This is Bare Exclusive Bull Again Then!”
The voice of popular Madd character Archiebull Cox who is up in arms over an exclusivity clause in NCF Producer Performer Contract for 2007. The clause in question which says that competitors cannot supply services of the same or similar nature while in NCF competitions has Archiebull hopping Madd!
After I perform for NCF I usually have to go down Bush Hill and by de libary and turn a few tricks to get money to pay my back ups and dancers, cause de performance fees are not enough! This exclusivity clause stops me from doing this.
On one hand them say they can’t increase calypsonians money and then gun turn round and want yuh exclusive” wuh I want exclusive money too! “Isn’t this exclusivity restriction of trade? I will call the Fair Picking & Trading Commission” and lodge a complaint, I need to pick fares, how else will I get home after shows!
Efforts to reach NCF CEO proved fruitless as he was unavailabull!
If during the reading of this blog there is any thing I might have written which might have incensed or offended you, GET OVER IT! There are many things I read and hear in the media on a daily basis that I don't like either. SO DEAL WITH IT! You are welcome to leave your comments though. Make sure and come back yuh hear !!!...

I hope if they can’t afford to pay the artistes anymore (which is really a load of crap), that there isn’t some international act come East Coast (or other event). Increase the prize monies or something. What is the purpose of the clause anyways? If you have artiste X performing exclusively for you & they are one of your more popular performers…then obviously your event will be a bigger draw & should bring in more money, correct? If that’s the case, just why can’t you pay the artistes more? *insert expletive here*
