No, 1in360 just wants to launch the concept of "televised internal selection": you watch, you hope, we decide!
Surerly the opinions of thousands of fans should matter more than some rich composer

The replacement rapper can be one of two people:
1. MC Anita Simoncini
2. Valentina Monetta
Only these ladies have the power to save San Marino from the disaster that's just happened. RIP Jessika feat. Irol at Eurovision *lays down rose*

Valentina actually has a song where she's full on rapping on her first ep " IL Mio Gioco Preferito". We know our queen likes to fly to the rescue whenever San Marino is in crisis. It seriously could be Jessika feat. Valentina Monetta that we hear very soon.

Re: SAN MARINO 2018
I have been listening to some of the songs of the countries which haven´t chosen yet, and honestly, San Marino´s got one of the best finals of the season! You can really see the effort on finding excellent vocalists, and what´s more important, good songs that could perfectly be in the Grand Final.
I am rooting for Sara de Blue, the best voice of all of them that makes a good song a piece of art. Sebastian is very good as well. I would be very happy with any of these two.

What the hell? I suppose IROL didn't like the final version of "Who We Are"
Mess... I hope Anita Simoncini replaces him please! 
None of the other candidates already taking part can rap, right?
Did they just say the final versions of the songs would be released tonight? I like the concept of 1in360, but it seems like it changes everyday

if it's one of the other contestants i hope it's Camilla North. Out of those who i didn't know before, she's my favorite. She proved that she can talk fast in Yo no soy tu chica
If it's one of the outsiders, it's got to be Anita Simoncini. This is a perfect chance for her to redeem herself on my eurovision lists

Re: SAN MARINO 2018
Poor Jessika though to be honest. Her and Irol were so good together. Imagine putting all your time and energy into something like this and your partner drops out. Must say that Irol was a strange fit for this show and it's format though. He doesn't strike me as the kind of artist who's ok with being told what to do. I'd flip if I was on a show and told to perform stuff that wasn't me. San Marino should pick him internal one year. His music is great and he's the perfect choice if they want to actually show their local talent again.

Re: SAN MARINO 2018
The full songs are out (apparently they're still all a work in progress): https://www.globalrockstar.com/ click on the candidates' pages, there a player below the amount of money collected.
My ranking at first listen:
1)Sara De Blue: Nice enough arrangements with chords and piano, but not quite as great as I expected: the drums need to be heavier and it lacks dirty electric guitars to play with the Evanescence vibe the song gives me. Please revamp it! I want that second verse and bridge to be fired up! It's a bit too calm as it is imo. And the backing vocals are too girly, they should sound more ominous.
2)Camilla North: it's actually better than I expected, there are modern elements in it and it's not as Spanish-sounding actually. It may grow on me.
3)Tinashe Makura: Nice reggae tune, now I catches my attention. Me likes it! Good job!
4)IROL: That moment when IROL's song ends up being better than Jessika's. I like the mood going on, and Basti sounds good here too. Me likes! IROL rules!
5)Jenifer: Nice modern version of the song, it's way more radio-friendly now. Too bad the chorus is hella repetitive. The song could have used some tweaks melody-wise.
6)Jessika: the rapper is a woman, don't know who she is. I'm not really fond of the instrumental at first listen: it's loud but not really powerful: I'm kinda disappointed, it lacks energy and refinement. Hopefully it'll improve live and there'll be some tweaks coming.
7)Basti: melancholic pop version of "Stay", the song sounds pretty decent this way, even though it remains bland and forgettable. Good job for making something out of it though!
8)Giovanni: Typical Italian pop arrangements, which obviously fit the song. Since I'm not fond of the song itself, I can't say it's doing much for me.
9)Emma: "Diamonds" has been re-worked melodically and lyrically. The arrangements of the verses are unexpectedly original and good, but... what is that cheap Europop chorus!? Ew, please change that asap! It ruins the song for me. :? Hopefully, she'll fix it.
10)Franklin Calleja: unexpected orchestral interpration of "Stay". It's way too cheesy and Maltese for my taste though. Please don't send this!
11)Judah: Maybe the most middle of the road version of "Stay" because it's a mix of the other versions. The singing is neat, but it's cheesy and dated. No thanx.
Overall though, I think the productions are pretty good and varied. I hope they all still work on improving them though.
Jessika disappointed me while Camilla and Tinashe did THAT! I look forward to their performances.
Jenifer is ok, I think the song needed to be re-worked composition-wise.
Emma should fix her choruses because it's cheap compared with the verses imo.
Sara should plan to obtain an edgier, rougher sound a la Evanescence, it's half-baked atm.
Basti is ready both for his solo entry and duet with IROL.
I don't care about Giovanni, Franklin and Judah.

He won't splurge since his fave is only making a short appearance. He ain't got no dollaz for Maltese redheads.
