More Sting foolery...Sumfest Supports Sting's Stance

[RasDivine]

Following the move by Isaiah Laing and his partner Heavy D to ban recording artistes Sizzla Kalonji and D'Angel from Sting because of distasteful displays onstage at Sting 30, co-promoter of the equally iconic festival, Reggae Sumfest, Robert Russell, says he hopes up-and-coming artistes will learn from the response of the promoters.
Russell says it is unfortunate when recording artistes act irresponsibly when they are in the possession of a microphone, despite being briefed on what is expected of them prior to giving them the platform to provide entertainment.

I listened to my girl being interviewed by Muta as to y she did wat she did...laff so till...mek mi realise y I have never heard anyting she suppose fi do as a singer or as she kept saying, entertainer....

Sting has always been into rivalry btw DJs re their toasting skills....somehow that got waylaid n the idea of wat is done in the rivalry , has gone way down....lyrics no haffi mean u juss chat slackness....n even den, u can use entendre etc like how Sparrow etc did...modern times don't mean u haffi use the base terms to get ur point across ..dat is wat who don't know betta, live by...n unfortunately we have become an island dat allow the least common denominator to rule n say is our culture....FEH

What a contrast between Shaggy and Friends and Sting....from one extreme to the other...a good friend said recently "Jamaica is of the extremes"

Hope the artists wake up because music is not what sells anymore. The money is made performing...
