Beenie Man! one of dancehall's great.. has been around for a long time, and if he remains healthy and alive then chances are we will continue to see the Doctor...aka the Girls Dem Sugar around the place and making hits...
He has withstand the onslaught of one of the baddest DJ in Jamaica (i.e. Bounty Killa) for the past two decades and at the same time done well in the international arena, won countless awards... and is still going strong as one of the old timer in the business.
Went true embarrassing scenes with estranged wife and former common-law wife of his nemesis Bounty Killa, now a grandpa and after been taken to court last year for tax evasion ... Beenie seem to be able to take the blows...even from Twins of Twins (have they released anything recently?...cant wait to hear it)
Its interesting to see how those who came before and after him have faded ..but he remains among the top acts at shows...
With new artist like Einstien, Konshen, Black Rhyno etc.. the competition for the lime light get tougher as time goes on.. as some may say Beenie eat his food already and he should let the other youths shine... Well he has taxes to pay and perhaps over thirty siblings to feed including grands... so I dont think he is interested in packing up at this time...
By the way.. is it that all other artist pay their taxes, cause I cant seem to remember any other being taken in for questioning on the non-payment of taxes..
I'm not saying that these artist are not law-abiding citizens...
