I-SCREAM or ICE-WATER?
I-SCREAM seemed to have melted, as many things did not go as planned.
The show which took place at the James Bond Beach in Oracabessa, St. Mary on Sunday, was obviously disorganized. It never started at the time advertised, and there was traffic jam "a plenty" in spite of a poor turn out.
Regardless, international R&B group Boys II Men performed for almost two hours to screaming fans. The group sang many of their platinum selling hits.
The female performers represented well. Queen Ifrika received an encore after every song, Cherine Anderson was elated by the overwhelming response she got. Etana and Tessanne Chin did well.
Mr. Boombastic, Shaggy, made a surprise appearance during Christopher Martin's set. He was in cruise control.
Carl Thomas and KC & JO JO were missing in action. Collin Bell, one of the organizers of the event said both "missing" artistes were paid in full, and so said that patrons who attended the show should save their ticket stubs in order to attend another show, where the artistes would give a "make up" appearance.
The show ended at minutes after 1:00am with the might of the "Warlord"
Bounty Killer in full flight.
Stay logged on to YardFlex for a comprehensive review of the show.

This review nuh mek no sense. MI did deh deh Cherine Anderson open the show and mash it up. Along wid Ifrica she did one of the most entertaining set. Cherine & Ifrica a di only two artist get an encore
if unu nuh believe mi guh watch the Cherine performance pon youtube
Tessane & Brick and Lace we ok. And the crowd never really a feel Brick & Lace. Dem come off too foreign .The crowd responded only to the hits songs that they have
Boys II Men had the woman dem screaming all damn night.
Then the local artist dem who tink dema superstar come on after boys II me and never pull the audience.
Little hero was boring.Etana average. Then Christopher Martin come and drag Shaggy on.
Den Bounty come on a keep up him usual frockery a talk bout other people.
The only part of di show worth mention is Cherine Anderson to Boys II Men ( in between we had Tessanne , Brick & Lace, Queen Ifrica )
The show must disorganize is a SOLID AGENCY show. Wid a bunch a Solid artist. Den dem get people write bout dem artist inna di newspaper when truth is none of the solid artist dem really move di crowd
same ol ting

this show was so so RUBBISH!!! we paid VIP money and all u got was a likkle 'roped' off section, not even some water fi drink!!! den di MC was one FART!! chatting so so rubbish then the show ended prematurely and all he had to say was 'hold on to your ticket stubs to use for another show as Boyz 2 Men and K-Ci/Jo Jo will not perform due to snowstorm in the US!!!' of course i thought it was a joke as Boyz 2 men had already performed!! so now u guys know what a joke it was!! Come on promoters....we work hard for our money and go out to have a great time only for people to 'rob' us!! joke ting dat!!!

they are saying whoever attended the show should save their ticket stubs so we can attend another show, where the artistes would give a "make up" appearance this is absolutely garbage, "MI WANT MI MONEY BACK!" Why do these Canadians come down to Jamaica and try to act like they are big timers. most of the girls are crutchers and the promoters are fraud, right Chaplin? Based on what I know their are a few Canadians waiting on their "make up" show for the non-appearance artist too. I see a pattern.

Obviously, Yard Flex was not at the show from beginning. The show started app. 3hours late with some unknown artist (one I remembered as( calaloo) as he was called on to do another song. The audience seem very amused. then came jamaica SEXY DIVA (Cherine Anderson) who opened the star time segment and really gave us a SHOW. After her set she was called on by the audience to performed an acappella. We then had tessanne Chin. She was OK. The only song we knew was Hide Away, Then came Brick and Lace, they were boring but we gave them the opportunity to performed as they were apart of the show. There was a fifteen minutes break then came the QUEEN Ifrica who got the crowd roaring again after Cherine performance. Then the international Act-BOYs 11 MEN. They were go to go. After which The remainding Billed and unbilled acts performed. The BIG yard crew who was not billed found themselves on stage. Then came Sharon Burke artist- Wayne, Etana and Bounty. The Iscream really melted after BOYs II Men. We were disappointed the other foreign ACts did not perform.

The show should be cloased by BOYZ II MEN. Most people started to walk out after they performed. We did not need anything more than wi money back.
Big up to the ladies of the night Ifrica and Cherine. The new artist Calaloo was good to.

The show flop, flop, flop....the only thing I was happy for, is that I saved my r***s money and nuh buy the VIP tickets like I intended. Firstly the show start 3 1/2 hours late. With nuttin said from anyone. The little idiot MC come on bout 5:45 and sey we starting in 15mins and we nuh see or hear from him again till 7:30.
The only artistes that was worth talking about was Queen Ifrika and Boyz II Men. Everything else flop....mi want back mi r**as money a 10 ticket wi buy....total rip off.

Hey, Solid Agencies were not the ones who kept the show, the jus PROMOTED it. Those ppl who were responsible didnt even give the SPONSORS their complimentary tickets! Cho star! Any way, Bounti always duh him ting...Bounti is Bounti...yu caan change him.
