Cross section of Bands at Trophy Extra Special Band |
This week, the bands had the task of pleasing judges and
viewers alike by remaking hit songs of judges – Cobhams, Timi and 2Baba.
There were no battles this week. So, each band had the
chance to shine without worrying about another band’s interpretation of the
song.
Kickstarting the episode with a Faajigroove was Update Vibes
who put a very special spin on Timi Dakolo’s I never know say. Despite this
“special spin”, the judges were not particularly thrilled with their
performance.
Up next was The Alian Tribe who rendered Cobhams’ hit song
One Hit as a rock song. It was an interesting interpretation but not
interesting enough for the judges. Elixir Band took the stage next, giving
TuBaba’s Hate what you do to me an R n B tilt. Yet again, the judges were split
in their opinions.

At the end of it all, The Bandhitz, The Benedictz and Alian
Tribe were the judges’ choices for automatic qualification for the grand
finale, leaving Elixir Band and Update Vibes as the bottom two.
With one spot left to be filled, Elixir Band and Update
Vibes need votes to make it to the finale. Be sure to visit
