MTV Launches New Dancehall Music Chart

 MTV Dancehall chart logo
It was a couple of days ago I posted an article on the dancehall reggae charting ... Just a reflection on the fact that the dancehall music charts are not so trust worthy.., in that they don't necessarily reflect the 'truth'. The existing charts in Jamaica seem to have no moral authority to reflect the songs in order of sales etc... so Jamaicandancehallmusic.com is still developing a 'true' reflection of ReCent dancehall music sales that are more or less have a bit of connection to the Caribbean. The use of the I tunes chart is the basis upon which we determine what goes where, but MTV has taken upon itself to launch the "Official Dancehall Chart" --- im not sure what makes it official---because its MTV!!? well we welcome MTV intervention in the development and publication of Dancehall music.. welcome to the cause MTV we expect greater things as time goes by.
This according to MTVbase.com
Catch this every Wednesday fortnightly @ 23:15 CAT on MTV base. Bringing you the latest and biggest dancehall riddims from across the world, the official dancehall chart will be hosted by Silverstar DJs, the biggest reggae DJ's in the UK!
