Sting Intl party at the Elite
Arc
Saturday March 9
was a night of star-studded events, after leaving the Beres show in Newark I made my way
to Brooklyn. The
venue was The Elite Arc for the Sting Intl birthday party with
special invited guests Shaggy, Rayvon, Rik Roc,Redd Fox, and Shabba Ranks.
For me the
main pull was Shabba, I havent seen Shabba in quite some time and its always a
pleasure to see the girls dem
loverman DJ. I didnt gain entrance to the club until minutes to 3am and by the time
I got in the place was jammed packed with people already dancing to the latest dancehall
tunes and doing the latest dances.
DJ Roy and Davded Levy who were also
at the Beres show in Jersey were the MCs for the night. The first artist they introduced
to the stage was Rayvon who after being introduced rushed the stage and wasted no time in
getting to his latest tunes.
He brought back some of the old time
vibes by giving us some of his signature tunes and from then the bamrush of artists began.
Rick Roc, Redd Fox, Shaggy, Lady Ann and Mr.
Easy all had turns at the mic some going tune for tune. At this point the stage got too
crowded and the promoters called for a clearance of the stage before they proceeded with
the show. DJ Roy had to ask for the people to free up some space on the floor so that he
could make his way to the stage with the Original Grammy Kid.
Once on the stage, Shabba wasted no
time in giving us hits after hits but it wasnt enough for me because I wanted more
of the Grammy Kid. Foundation artist U-Roy was also in the house and performed one of his
songs.
The music was provided by Sting Intl.
The birthday boy Sean was behind the turntables mixing it up until the wee hours of the
morning.
