Taking the bomb award, Tricky Tongue and Aunty Mable's walked away as victors of Blast Off! Champions in our third season. As chosen by you and the judges, these guys fought their way with their performances along with 18 others groups that came to battle it out.
CONGRATULATIONS 'Tricky Tongue' & 'Aunty Mable's'
The final round of the competition came to an impending battle; with each band performing a medley consisting of one song choice and the other their own original tracks. While Ruums was packed with hordes of fans and people from all over K.L. and some unfortunate cases being that Ruums could not fit everyone. Backstage our 8 groups, 4 of which are in the band category and the other 4 in the vocal group category were having nerve jitters as the realization of coming out as victors are so close yet so far to reach and even more so that this would be their last shot of fame.
Simply put, the judges and the nation's votes are all fairly decided and the surviving 8 groups were hoping against all hopes that they would emerge as champions.
Our charismatic judges, Brian Vinesh, Adly and Joe Flizzow gave reasonable remarks and constructive critics to the bands and vocal groups for the most part of the show. Ean and Sazzy announced that Lim Kok Wing University decided to give out 20 of the most deserving contestants in Blast Off! 3, scholarships totaling up to RM 500,000 worth and at the end of the show, Hitz.TV will be giving away an award for 'Most Outstanding Performance Award' along with the prizes that have been mentioned before many times. As the show goes on, the anxiety and anticipation of contestants glorying on stage unfolds. Here are the final 8 groups that made it to the end.
1. Andalusia from K.K, Sabah
2. College Dropouts from Kuala Lumpur
3. Aunty Mable's from Kuala Lumpur
4. Ghetto Republic from Kuala Lumpur
