I knew it would be a matter of time b4 we start having people questioning the authenticity of the music charts in Jamaica. For the life of me.. I can't see such a small country .. though with a lot of music being produced everyday ... and a lot of charts reflecting mostly rotations and sales... would really have such diversity in the different charts... There were songs on Top ten ER charts on TVJ... prior Friday gone ..that was just stone dead wrong in my opinion. The whole thing looks revamped with the Stephen tune .."cant friend again" the new number tune.
I listen to the radios, go to sessions ... but I'm still uncertain about sales (ROFL...)... the only persons who benefit from dancehall music sales here in Jamaica are the guys that bootleg the CD's and sell them on the road side..., the sound systems and radio stations basically get them free..and the average Jamaican who listen to dancehall music and want a copy seem to take them from varuous websites all over the internet... or extract and listen on youtube among other sites. ..or buy the bootlegs on the streets
No disrespect to Alpha Rowen ..its just that his tune 'what can I do lord'... is the only track I can remember that was on the ER charts for weeks... and there were a number of artiste that were not even ever seen on the local soil, not played on local radio.. though I'm not omnipresent.. even the deaf could hear this s h i t .... Romeo's piece is better among them ... I just cant remember them at the moment... Oh!! big up yuh self floyd west yuh sound like one the Marley dem...
Anyway...Some blame payola... the Twins are amongst persons who openly criticise the modus operandi of the charts and radio stations disc jock... its simple, artiste pay to be played, pay to get tunes wheeled-up, to pull-up tunes...for artificial forwards, undeserved big ups and favourable comments.. artiste and producers pay for heavy rotations... even youtube sometime is criticised for artificially inflated views. So those with big money will always prevail under this system.
The charts in Jamaica are currently showing ..these tracks as the Number one dancehall tracks and Reggae tunes
dancehall no. 1's
Holiday- ding dong , Life we Living - Kartel, Mrs Officer - Vybz kartel, Hope and Pray - Mavado
and the few reggae charts no. 1's
Drive by - Nesbeth, True Friend - Demarco
as for outside of a Jamaica... "everything else weh come after Bob a bobby socks... ha ha haaa"
