I think Press Play has more of a jazzy, modern vibe, and they’re also taking a lot more into consideration than just on stage performance. Stella F’s improv was much stronger than Sylvia’s and if she or any of the other finalists outshines Sylvie in more genres (like hiphop or jazz) I don’t think it’s unrealistic to say she could be beaten and I don’t think that automatically means Press Play is rigged.

why are we acting like SW isn't jazzy or modern
