Skatta Burrell Responds to Popcaan, Chronic Law & Foota Hype + Freedom Street Review

Firstly, I am a proud Jamaican 🇯🇲, but we must address the elephant in the room. Some of us lack discipline, don't follow the rules, and misbehave, especially towards our fellow citizens. This sense of entitlement and lack of accountability is a disgrace. The dancehall artistes from the past laid the groundwork for current ones to thrive, make money and elevate the genre. I mention Ninja Man because he warned about the dangers of entourage-havin' too many people around can lead to trouble. These issues could have been handled privately rather than publicly. I believe Popcaan should apologise to Skatta Burrell for disrespecting his mother because he is close to his own mother. Don't let your ego make you lose everything. For the dancehall genre to progress, we must all work together and avoid the crab-in-a-barrel mentality. Regardless of your opinion on Vybz Kartel, it’s clear that he is a reformed person. The show setup was excellent. One love, Jamaica 🇯🇲 🌞.

[@andrewmckenley5355]

The dancehall artistes in the past were very unruly and disrespectful too. Hence why overseas promoters book Japanese, German, American and even Latino Reggae and Dancehall artistes.

@ReshaGlows Lol people, the man said he kidnapped and assault the man, stop picking sides, and picked justice instead. People are not scared of sym, they are scared of people attacking them and putting their hands on them. They sym discussion went out the window when the assault took place. That's what needs to be discussed.

So it's okay to assault someone because your mom is sick? I can't even see why we are discussing sym after an assault. Typical Jamaican style. The man say he kidnapped the man and took him downstairs, and all the people concerned about his sym.

[@lighthouse9202]

This is not different from telling a rape victim she shouldn't have worn such short shorts. I think Jamaica lacks basic problem solving skills.

[@iansmtih6046]

@@lighthouse9202 so you’re actually comparing Popcaan and his entourage to some woman who have been raped? 🤦🏽‍♂️. That’s a bit of a stretch in analogy. How was popcaan violated? Because he had to wait an extra hour to get into a show. It’s not that serious. There are more pressing things in life..just look around the community where the concert was held.. I made a GENERAL statement about rules and when they’re not followed…what if everyone blew through the red light a a business intersection or if no one followed the speed limit? I appreciated the context. I don’t know nor do I care ab those involved. I wasn’t taking sides Maybe I’m misunderstanding your comment 🤔

Skatta should actually be a Gate keeper because many years ago producers and promoters enforced standards which enhanced artists development. I believe many Artist should start complying with the rules and do it for the culture and protection of their fans. I wouldn’t take the SYM personally because at this point is just dancehall and artist always say things to build clout. And if you call them they will tell you it’s nothing personal. With that said Chronic Law is a real big Artist and has came along way and deserved a level of respect. Popcaan probably the biggest dancehall artist since 2020 and need to use his platform and promote positivity to inspire the next generation of artists. The show was a success and I really saw Vybz Kartel’s growth. It’s a big deal. I think having a band in addition to the DJ would have been a bonus. Skatta and everyone involved did a great job it’s historic for dancehall.
