Contributed - English Deejay, 'Sexy P', tackles the Beenie/D'Angel issue.
by Teino Evans, Staff Reporter
English-based artiste Sexy P might be relatively unknown to Jamaicans and dancehall music in general, but doing a song that speaks unreservedly of the Beenie, D'Angel situation is probably the easiest way to be recognised.
Sexy P, whose real name is Marcia Prince, a Jamaican by birth who migrated to London, England, recently recorded a song entitled Moses Moses, which in one verse says:
'You come a talk bout the wickedest slam
Now mi fly dung fi straight born Jamaican
You big talk mek you sound like a Don
So tell me if you right or you wrong (wrong)
Bar Bee ass big bare as you dare
When she back it up seh yuh caan reach there
De other slap till she flat
She a swing like a flag
From man to man then inna gal lap'
And, even though Sexy P's lyrical content might seem harsh and disrespectful, she says, "I don't know how they (Beenie Man and D'Angel) will react, if they do react to it, but I hope they see my lyrics as an eye-opener and alter their attitudes."
Sexy P says, "The song is my way of saying this is what it looks like from the outside looking in," and uses the opportunity to offer words of advice for the estranged couple.
"I thought she (D'Angel) should have shown him (Beenie Man) a bit more respect for someone who she said, in her own words, has done so much for her. He even tried to turn her into a lady where others failed. But can you turn a dishcloth into a tablecloth?" she questioned.
Sexy P obviously isn't afraid of speaking her mind and when asked if she was not fearful that associates of Beenie Man or D'Angel might come at her, her response was, "no! not really, he doesn't seem to be like the ignorant type. Hmm! Maybe lyrically but I don't think men would want to go there."
Currently working on her second LP, which is due out this fall, Sexy P says her lead off single will be Moses Moses, which was released on the Bornso label. And, even though she is a newcomer, Sexy P says she has high hopes for this project as she feels quite confident in her talent as an artiste.
"It's good to know I can deliver just like any male artiste out there, it's also good that more women are getting recognition based on their work and not just as a sexual target," she said.
She says females in the business need to "stay focused and don't give in to the males in the business who would try to use you, cause with the blessing of God, whatever you want you can achieve. Your motto should be 'giving up is not an option!'"
Sexy P, while in Jamaica, pursued a career in the fashion industry and was a part-time model, designing clothing for various artistes such as Beenie Man, Buju Banton and Peter Metro. She currently operates her own salon and designs for a boutique in Brixton, South West London.
