Beenie Man settles the score for 2008 in ‘That’s Life”

man beenie.jpgBeenie Man has launched a collective counter attack on a series of scandals that plagued him during the year. As the 2008 draws to an end ‘The Doctor’ has decided to settle the scores in one shot with his latest release titled, “That’s Life”.

Recorded on Sonny Spoon’s rhythm, ‘Chemistry’, ace dancehall DJ Beenie Man, speaks out in his song on the alleged disloyalty of his wife Michelle ‘D’Angel Downer-Davis. In the song he says, “dem say mi nearly mad and mi wife tek another man, so what, mi get another gal…a hundred dozen gal soon reach a million, life is what you make it, move on."

Other controversies are addressed in his verses that touch many topics, like the supposed attack on DJ Spice, that Beenie Man denies vehemently saying, "who box Spice? Yu nuh hear say a 20 man/last time mi check myself, mi neva have 20 hand."

On a lighter side Beenie Man speaks of his numerous headlines in The Gleaner and Jamaica Observer this past year, saying that by now he should have shares in those media houses.

On a more sensitive note, ‘The Doctor’ shares his feelings about the pregnancy of Desha Gaye, his teenaged daughter with the following lyrics:

Who am I? Just a man
Mi have a 17 year-old daughter
Desha get pregnant as a teenager
Press and the media ah say ah entertainer
Who fah name dem call? Who
I-d-d-d-d-onia
Him is just a family member
My cousin Foley ah him road manager
Yes, mi daughter get pregnant by a youngster
Two ah dem go school
And have de same teacher
Even though mi cry eyewater
Mi have the same love fi mi daughter

Well Beenie, yes you are my artist, but listen to what you said in your own lyrics. You said your wife got another man, so you get a next gal, a hundred dozen gal, soon reach a million". You are amoral too, so how can you judge your daughter? or anyone else for that matter? she's just practicing what your preaching. Besides that, your still married and have nuff gal, and have pitney after pitney with different women. Children live what they learn, so seeing that your daughter got pregnant so young, shows that she learned alot from YOU!
