"I'm back, wicked than ever" – Spice
By Joan Wilson
 Spice is back! She is making no bones about it either. Pregnancy might have slowed her down, but definitely didn't hamper her progress on the dancehall scene.
Now that she has her precious bundle of joy, Spice is even more determined to eat a bigger slice of the pie out of dancehall and according to her, "I'm back, wicked than ever, all dem gal weh tink dem a run di place...watch out..." was the ominous warning from the lyrically sharp DJ.
Those are no idle threats considering she has pitted her deejaying skills against the very energetic DJ Elephant Man at Sting 2002 and that contest was just too close to call. She has the respect of other top male DJs who has seen her in lethal action.
And to think that the sexy, almost shy DJ once contemplated a career as a Chartered Accountant!
"Yup I was doing business in school and I passed eight subjects...was gearing up for sixth form at St. Catherine High and decided I couldn't deal with all those numbers for the rest of my life," Spice confessed.
After that Grace Hamilton aka Spice enrolled at the Edna Manley College for the Visual and Performing Arts to do voicing and drama...during that time she also joined the group Ashe.
Outstanding performances are not strange to Spice as while a student at St. Catherine High she entered the Jamaica Cultural Development Commission (J.C.D.C) festival competition year after year in the singing category, all the time earning for her school 5 gold medals in total.
Spice finally got the break she was seeking in 1999 to sing when she went on Nuffy's programme called "Many Moods of Nuffy" which featured her Portmore community.
After that her friends started encouraging her to pursue a career in singing, but Spice soon found out that she much rathered the effect she had on her fans when she deejayed!
It was that side of her that impressed Supreme Promotion's Heavy D who took her under his wings and gave her, her first big performance on Sting 2000. Spice earned for herself four encores...she had arrived!
 Now a mother Spice admits to being motivated by her son and that is the catalyst to push her career to a more professional level and as such she is working with the best to take her to the next level in the biz. Her team members include publicity firm Khool International headed by Ray Alexander, booking agent, stylist, road manager, street team and of course she already has Madhouse dealing with most of her production. Spice is also working with other top ranked producers.
"I am also doing more radio and television friendly songs...of course I still have rude girls songs for dancehall fans," she hurriedly pointed out as she stressed the need to be more 'corporate friendly.' "I am flexible like that...I can even work at a gospel show if I have to," she teased.
Spice has just wrapped up recording three singles, "I'm Back" on the North Coast Riddim for House of Vibes, "Done Out", on Dem riddim for Ward 21 and "Inna Di Light", on the Gear Box riddim for Truck Back.
Next week she will begin the shooting of the video for all three songs.
Spice has a very active calendar for the holiday including Sting, Island Explosion, Tivoli Jamboree and so far a show in Canada and Atlanta.

mi nuh bizness bout Spice i cant even remember one good song. she's no queen, she's jus a gimmick artiste and she only good for stage show. Dancehall princesses are Macka Diamond, Tanya Stephens, Lady G, Cecile etc and yuh dunn know the queen Lady Saw. Good luck to Spice though cause i would still love to c her improving herself and step up to the plate.

Yeah right! She says she has eight subjects but at what grade..... six maybe. Thats what you are spice a six. It's only because the lowest grade stops at six why you're there. Left up to me you'd be a U. Oh, that stands for UNGRADED.NO CLASS!!!

Big up Angee your comment was on point. There was nothing wrong with spice why she had to go bleach up herself. We black women have to stop looking for the TV, and media to big us up, we mus big up we self. You can't even look for these dancehall dj's to big us up either because as we know they gonna run to the whitest thing they see. Black is beautiful remember!
