Not often portrayed by media in the best of lights, Jamaican dancehall artiste Spice sought in a recent interview to negate the narrative that the country’s artists are constantly feuding and fighting with one another.
In a Tuesday (July 27) interview with Grammy.com, regarding the upcoming release of her album Ten and recent single Go Down Deh, Spice stated, “Oftentimes, the media puts things out there to make it seem like we’re fighting with each other, fighting against each other. I’m really humbled and grateful to show that together, we are more of a force to be reckoned with.”
Referencing the release of her track Go Down Deh, which features international singing sensations, Sean Paul and Shaggy, she relayed: “When this song came out — it’s actually still trending in Jamaica right now, people appreciated the fact that we were able to come together and create this song.”
A feat which, she noted, “has never been done before”.
Recognising that there is in fact truth to the popular phrase “in unity, there is strength”, Spice stated: “I love the unity that’s happening right now within dancehall and reggae music… . People don’t give us the ratings that our culture deserves.”
Spice’s album Ten is set to be released in line with her birthday on August 6 and features a host of songs that have been years in the making that she promises her “besties” are bound to love.
