I only heard the Aids rumor on message boards. There's a letter from him on a site back in October saying he has a terminal illness and that Kirky C. from Poison Dart is taking care of him.

Dancehall isn't meant to be scholarly and tight - it's a fun time... a fun time with a lot of Guiness and Heineken flowing with maybe a little something to smoke. Dancehall is vibez - that's why it sounds so different and the people that like it, present it and live it may take a little time to get used to. It ain't for everybody. Loosen up.

You know the difference between a selector & a mic man?

lot of times there is no difference..

the words selector , mic man , DJ are interchangeable...
some times the selector is the mic man..

any why..

nothing worse than a madafucking

selector/mic man stopping the record after 30 seconds to say something stupid..

play the fucking record...

 

[duppy_maka]

I remember one time I went to a clash
I forgot what sounds were battling..

it was the dumbest thing I ever seen in my life..
first off

there was like 20 women there..
500 dudes and 20 women...

dudes didn't even let the records play for 1 minute

just constantly stopping the record
saying some dumb shit...

GTFOH with that....

A lot of kats involved with sounds probably going to be mad
but
it's the truth..

play the fucking records and shut up...

if you going to play a record from a hot riddim
play 5-6 records from the riddim..

it ain't that difficult..

i see his point...but squingin was one of the greats..speeches were funny..on point and catchy as fuck..nigga knew how to get the crowd hype..clash or juggling(party)..
