TUN IT ON!

If you were not at TUN IT ON Saturday night, shame on you! If you didn’t make it because of uncontrollable circumstances you get a pardon, but don’t mek it happen again.

Well ladies and gents, I got to this dance a little late and I regret every minute I lost. I guess I just got used to the regular 3Cs CP time. I arrived at the dance around 12:30, and when I got inside the place was pack and the crowd a people were jamming. No holdin up the walls and screw face at this dance. I was pleasantly surprised. I am glad to see that the DHW crew followed my public service announcements by starting the show on time. It’s high time ghetto people get dem monies worth.

When I arrived at the dance the place was full of fog, I thought to myself, “this is my kind of party”. But when I couldn’t smell any weed, I looked up and saw that the fog machine was on, nice touch DHW, it added to the atmosphere of the evening. Being late I missed Junior Rodigan’s warm up. My sources tell me he was on point. Junior Rodigan really knows how to start a dance off right. He plays just the right songs to get the crowd aroused, at the same time he doesn’t wear the crowd out in the first hour of the dance.

Noah, the hype man from Natural Vibes took to the tables and it was all about blazin up the crowd. Big up to Robin from 90.3 F.M. for having him on her show earlier that day. After two songs, I could see why the sound name Natural Vibes, because when dem deh at di turn tables a pear natural vibes deh bout. Boston needs these selectors in the dance more often. Tony Rebel’s “Ghetto people song” got the crowd into a righteous mood. Next it was all about the dances; from “Higher level to the Jiggy Dance” I swear I lost about 10 pounds that night. This new dance called “Jiggy” is surely a dance for the physically fit. I don’t know where these dances derive from but they are surly keeping everyone in shape in the dancehall. Bway, with dances like that I am going to have cancel my gym membership and tek up residence a 3Cs instead. I have to give a forward to the Ras who was tearing up the dance floor. My man mussi jus come up from JA, cause he knew all the dances and was definitely enjoying himself. I personally love fi si di man dem dance, they do it so well.

I must give a shout out to all the New York crew that was in the house Saturday night. Crowd a people a suh unu mus follow unu sound. They all came to hear Steelie Bashement “RRRAAA, RRRAAA, RRRAAA” do his thing, and I could understand why. Along with his good looks,Steelie took complete command of the place, and it was dancehall orgasms all around. Even the toughest of the tough shottas were moving their feet. The man had the crowd in the palm of his hand, and every song he played resulted in more dancing and good vibes. I would even go as far as to say that Steelie Bashment is a dancehall scientist, a pure genius at the turn-tables who knows how to make a crowd behave badly. He didn’t do a lot of talking. Steelie brought the Kingston vibes to Boston; it reminded me of Thursday nights at Asylum. He played nice selections that included classic songs by Sizzla and the latest tunes by Elephant Man and Capleton. Ever the romantic, Capleton’s “In har heart” had the crowd beating their chest and bussing the new dance.

In true 3Cs fashion the video flies swarmed the dance and the short skirts, tight pants, and G-strings provided much bait. A big part of going to any dance is to see and be seen in the fashion show. DHWs Nicky Niceness was definitely holding it down in her Black and White leather gangsta wife outfit. Look to see her in upcoming episodes of the Sopranos. From Louis Vuitton skirts to Gucci suits the crowd was definitely dressed to impress. I am an old fashioned girl myself, and I love to see the men dressed in their suits and new boots. It reminds me of the days when we used to go to dress maker and tailor fi a new outfit before every dance. Does anyone remember those days?

When 1:45 come and the lights came on, 3Cs showed no sign of slowing down. I thought to myself, “a how dem ago get them people ya fi go home tonight?” Now after him done play di whine up and grind up reggae music, Steelie put on some R-Kelly and Ruben Studard to get the ladies in the mood for the bedroom rumble that was to follow the dance. Every man know say “Sorry 2004” by Ruben is the ultimate get p$!#* song. Anytime you can convince a lady that you are sorry for what you have done, you get straight through the gate. Remember gentlemen, make-up sex is the best sex.

Now as usual, I have a public service announcement to make. This is an election year and we need to convince the politicians to keep the clubs open til 4:00 am at least. Dis 2:00 am ting has to end. I call for a petition people. Come on, if Gays can fight for the right to marry, we can fight for the right to party a little longer. So lets start lobbying our politicians people, its your dancehall rights that are at risk here.

The ladies of DHW has started a new trend in the dancehall, it’s called “bring your crystal glass”. Yes ladies and gentlemen, plastic cups are no longer sufficient; it’s all about the crystal glass. And I don’t wrong dem, how dem expect people fi drink expensive Moet inna 99 cent plastic cup or drink it from the bottle. Now I know that glass can get dangerous in the dancehall, but as long as we keep the vibes good, we should all be able to have fun.

In conclusion, Dancehallworld.com first party was definitely a smash hit. There was a nice crowd, who danced until security had to haul dem offa di dance floor, thanks to the genius of three great sound. The party was well organized and showed a lot of professionalism on the part of the promoters. Good job DHW, keep up the good work. I don’t think Boston should have to wait a year for another DHW dance, lets get a boat ride together the time is getting warm. Well people thanks for reading yet another review, and remember “rap it up before you get wrapped up, because AIDS a go round in dis ya Babylon town”

Peace and Blessings
