Marcelle does not like competitions but he said, "Competitions can bring out the best in you. You can face a crowd and express yourself. Calypso is a way of expressing yourself, freedom of speech. I think that's the safest medium of freedom of speech."Marcelle has enjoyed the freedom of expression of calypso."People actually sit and listen to your song, so it's as if you're telling a story," he said.Saying that calypso can relate to all walks of life and all age groups, he added that one disadvantage is the lack of sufficient airplay.
