Rumors of lyrical clashing fill the festive air
 This Friday, Jamworld Center in Portmore is set to roar with the thunderous sounds of reggae and dancehall, as major DJs polish up their verbal arsenal in preparation for the lyrical tune wars also known as the ‘sting clash’.
Ready and rearing to go is Vybz Kartel, who is lyrically pumped and shaped up to inflict major damage. However Mavado who appears always itching to strike ‘Addi’ with his ‘Gully Rod’ is said to be ever ready and powered up, but questioning the logistics and hype, since he is may not be interested in having Sting ‘fall’ because of any possible dangerous altercation, lyrical or otherwise.
The two amazingly talented dancehall stars have been clashing lyrically for almost two years now and Sting 2008 is said to be the venue where both artists will settle the combative score once and for all. Dancehall fans worldwide are anxious about the upcoming ‘battle of the chops’, as it will not only prove to be highly entertaining, but also filled with suspense, as the play on words could shock each artist into blazing startling lyrical flames.
Promoters are ready for anything and plan to have very tight security at the show. Security measures may go as far as having barriers placed between Vybz Kartel and Mavado as they rock tune after tune.
But it is the ‘war zone type’ readiness that irks Mavado, who mentioned on a broadcast recently that he is not keen on the beefed up security, the expected virtual human wall of law enforcement officers, nor the barriers, dividers or cage idea that is being tossed around by promoters, who are guarding against the possibility that things could go overboard. Mavado stated on that recent programme that he knows nothing of a clash and had not been briefed by promoters abut any clash. He said, “if two artist a go clash den, and yuh waan barriers, cage and bare tings, den yuh know how dangerous it is ... . Yuh a boost clash, artist a go confront artist. Mi nuh know nuting 'bout dat ... mi nuh waan be di one who have the fall of Sting on my name."
Kartel told The Star recently that he is ready to defend his name on Friday, since he has been slandered for two years and has no choice in the matter but to ‘dun dem’.
Mavado is rumored to be lyrically geared up for the clash, even though he is showing an unwillingness to face that action. It has been reported that he avoided confrontation onstage with Kartel at a show in St Elizabeth. It is alleged that after Mavado lashed into Kartel lyrically he hastily exited the stage once Kartel mounted his defence.
Sting will be the day of decision that every avid dancehall fan will be sure not to miss.
