Last Thursday saw the unfolding of a new turn of events as ace Bembe selector Jigsy took charge of Asylum with their new pre-summer club series dubbed 'Hardcore Thursdays'.
Jigsy and sidekick Penny Bling governed the night's proceedings and did deliver on their promise to make it a memorable one. The club which saw a respectable turn out with some of dancehall's finest got off to a good start and soon shifted in full throttle mode.
However the increased energy levels sparked some fans of Portmore Empire head honcho Vybz Kartel to request that some of the Deejay's tracks be played this was met with total disregard, even though the selector did take time out to pay homage to his former nemesis turn friend. Suprisingly Kartel who was in th club at the time soon departed after the chain of events, Jigsy however was unaware of his presence.
Upon this observation 876radio.com decided to do some investigation into the bizarre occurence as just weeks ago the two had publicly called a truce to the ungoing feud at the popular British Link-Up dance held at La Roose in Portmore. When 876radio.com contacted Jigsy he had this to say.
"Yes mi and Kartel squash the beef ova La Roose, him big mi up and publicly apology to me pon stage and all shake mi hand, but the reason why mi neva play none a him song dem is because mi still no get back mi chain. Mi tell dem from long time seh If mi nuh get back mi change mi nah play no Kartel that was part of the agreement and mi nuh get it back yet, yes di same chain weh dem buss off a mi neck ova Bembe when dem did gun butt mi. so mi still a wait pon it" - Jigsy said.
According to Jigsy the chain cost a lot of money and has sentimental value, hence the reason for his stance, efforts by our team to reach Kartel for a comment proved futile.
The current animosity between the two stems from incident dating a few months back where Jigsy was on stage at the popular weekly event making the utterances
"Tight pants bwoy, bleach out face bwoy, the bwoy dem wid the chinese tatoo pon dem neck, people it nuh mean nuttin a dem boyfriend name..mek mi tell oonu something Jigsy waah kill oonu".
He also segued for a moment and said "Big up Lynch Mob and Pelpa yuh a mi deejay fi life".
Lynch Mob a crew allegedly headed by Mikey Pelpa who is now an artiste was at war with Kartel's crew from the Gaza a garrison in the Waterford community, after a lot of public outcry a peace treaty was struck between the two.
We are not certain if those were the comment that prompted Vybz Kartel to send a page (a jamaican slang, meaning to call, send a message or send for someone) to Jigsy.
However, Jigsy said after he received the message from one of Kartel cronies, he went to converse with the deejay, only to witness someone grabbing his chain, yanking it from his neck, before Kartel allegedly proceeded to wet him up with a bottle of Hennessey and allegedly gun butted him. Jigsy said he was also punched up but can't say who the actually perpetrators were as the blows came from all directions.
In his defense Jigsy said he never expected that from Kartel because as far as he knows there is no bad *lo** between them, but if it's the comment about the tight pants, bleach out face and chinese tattoo that offended him sorry to say but he's not taking it back. "I have no plans to retaliate I will just leave them to Father GOD" - He added.
A very jovial Kartel in an interview with 876radio.com said as far as he knows everything is good with him and Jigsy and if he was attacked by men which he knows nothing of then he should report it to the relevant authorities.
