There are some people who like ‘mix up’ in Dancehall, and
given the rivalry between some ladies (think Sting 2013), there is one thing
and only one thing that speaks in the face of controversy: facts!

| Macka Diamond |
The fact is that Macka
Diamond has put in work (from the 1980’s “Gun Inna Brief” hit under the
name Lady Mackerel) to 2012’s “Dye Dye.”
In between those years, Macka has had an incredible career with several hits
to show, as well as several tours and stage shows; we haven’t even touched the
global approval of her fans. With that
said, Macka Diamond once again teams with Nicko
Rebel Music (previous productions include “Looking Good” and “Town”),
and together they have a HITTT chune with “We
Run Things!”
The title of the chune may sound boasy (arrogant / boastful)
but to be fair, it is not. Macka gives a
highlight reel of some of her milestones in Dancehall, and does it to a hybrid
throwback riddim whose piano skank closely resembles what we hear in the Roll Call
riddim. That alone will make you want to
play the chune much less when we hear the artist sing: “sekkle Macka Docious caw mih career tun up /
when me touch dih stage yuh know dih whole place bun up / when dem think mih
career done another hit chune run up / promoter book the show ah whole heap people
tun up….”
Be the first to like this chune and Tweet to Macka and Nicko about it >>> @mackadiamond1
