Spice Says ‘Put It On Her’‏

Spice's recent single, Put It Pon Mi on producer, Not Nice's Takeover Riddim is steadily becoming a fan favourite.The raunchy new track has tongues wagging about the vivid imagery and clever lyrics.

Spice says, "I was in the studio one night listening to it and it has a really nice, sexy vibe. After listening to it,that track was the end result. So the rhythm was what inspired the lyrics."

The song which instructs her male partner to 'put it on her' is the third of six singles for the year. Already released, are: Fun featuring Missy Elliot and the afrocentric Hot Patty Wine, while on their way are, tracks alongside Mya and other international artistes.

Spice, known for her Billboard hit with Vybz Kartel, Ramping Shop, Jim Screechie, Slim vs Fluffy featuring Pamputtae, Fight Over Man and others, says, "There is so much happening right now. I am putting the finishing touches on my album, so not only am I voicing exclusive singles, but I am also voicing other tracks which won't be on the album. Apart from that, I'm preparing for two separate tours. So it's a lot of work in a short space of time, but music and entertainment are what I love, so I don't mind."

"As for next week, it's going to be crazy with the Hot Patty Wine dance competition we have planned. Starting Sunday at Bounty Sundays, all the way to Friday at most of Kingston's parties, fans can look out for some great and unexpected entertainment plus good prizes," says Spice.

Romain Virgo, First Reggae Act At American Country Music Awards‏

Singer, Romain Virgo electrified a packed audience at this week's American Country Music Awards, Nashville, Tennessee.

The award-show which was staged on Monday night, featured Romain alongside Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, performing their hit, All The Gold In California.

He says, "The feeling was a good one, overwhelming actually. To be the first reggae artiste in any country to walk the red carpet like that and be taking photos with such huge country music stars while representing my country and genre, was a great feeling. I am humbled by the experience."

"After the performance with the Gatlins, we got a standing ovation from the audience, and with people like Taylor Swift in attendance, who is one of the most recent and popular country singers right now - it was great," says Romain who had recently recorded a cover of Larry Gatlin's California.

The Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts student, who has been in overdrive since returning to the island from his two month solo European tour in August, has also released a new single, System (Feel Like Letting Go).
