Artist Wars
Many Jamaican artist are known for their great music but yet, foul words and ever-lasting wars. In these days artists are now getting too out of control. Dancehall artist Vybz Kartel from Gaza and artist Movado from Gully are known for the war between the two groups. Although i am a huge fan of Dancehall music I truly believe this war should come to an end. It is leading to many Jamaicans and Dancehall fans to war amongst each other, fighting to figure out if Gaza is better than Gully. This war between the two groups has been going on for many years now, although they have claimed to settle their differences many times before, the foul words in the music they sing says otherwise. Recently, three popular artist Gaza Kim, Lisa Hype and Black Ryno have left the Gaza group which led to even more controversy with the remaining Gaza members and the Gully group. The former Gaza members and the remaining Gaza member are currently at disagreements because all parties feel violated in different ways. The Gully group however sees this as an opportunity to make hit music against the members. The "beef" between these music artist has gotten a bit out of hand and is a problem for many events and concerts that are held in Jamaica. At the end of every year there is a reggae concert named Sting that is held in Jamaica, Jamaica officials recently stated that neither artist will be allowed to perform unless the war is ended. In my opinion that statement was necessary, but even if both artist agree to get along for one night, the everlasting war will continue through their music.
