Over the past four weeks, 16 up and coming, talented artistes have blazed the stage in the Magnum Top Performa competition, but its now down to the wire with votes tabulated and four semi-finalists announced.

Magnum’s Top Performa is being undertaken in collaboration with famed music producer and artiste manager Romeich Major, in an effort to unveil the next big dancehall act.

Romeich Major, music producer and artiste manager who is collaborating with Magnum for Top Performa, says he is pleased with the semi-finalists in the competition which aims to unveil the next big dancehall act.

“They are good artistes still. I’m happy with the four who have advanced to the semi-final round. Big up to all the other contestants who passed through the competition, continue putting in the work. But me know the semi-finals nah go normal,” Romeich declared.

Competing in the two-part semi-finals are Tatik, King Calie, Prince Saj and Jase.

Tatik and King Calie will face off first on November 18; while, Prince Saj and Jase will compete in semi-final part two on November 25.

At this stage, the contestants are in high spirits and only focused on winning.

Tatik, who has been known for high levels of confidence throughout the competition, said he has no doubts he will be successful in Top Performa.

“The competitor, well, I don’t see him as a threat- good artiste though. I think, well, I don’t think- I know I will be the winner for this competition,” he said.

Declaring himself as the “King,” his opponent King Callie said:“I am not nervous about the semi-finals and the competitor. I think he is a very good artiste and he’s been doing [music] for quite some time and a few other competitions, so no doubt that he is a well-rounded artiste, but, like I said, I spent years preparing for this so there is no fear.”

In the meantime, Prince Saj seems to have taken a different path entirely from the other finalists as he revealed he is a Christian.

“The other competitor has also made it this far, so that means they have the capability to become the next Top Performa also. But, like I said, everyone has their thing to do, and I have my own thing to do… I just have to focus on the mission and execute on the day,” he said.

Jase also has his blinkers on as his focus is straight ahead of him to the Top Performa crown.

“I don’t feel anyway about who I’m going up against. My mind is more focused on writing my songs, learning my songs to give a good performance and to deliver them properly so people can vote for me,” he shared.

Viewers are reminded that the show starts, and voting begins every Thursday at 6:00 pm. The show is aired on www.Magnumhub.tv and on Instagram @magnumtonicwine. At the end of the competition, the winner will walk away with $1 million and a music video and song produced by Romeich. The second-place winner will receive $300,000 and a feature on a compilation riddim from Romeich, while the semi-final runners-up will receive $100,000 each.
