Gaza Gully Feud ..rise again...but

Ryo di Skywalker
I just read in an article that there is an ongoing feud, similar to the tone of the Gaza Gully scenario, taking place the country that probably facilitate the sale of more dancehall music than any other country, halfway around the world - in Japan. It seem to have stemmed from the use of musical track, of the artiste called Minmi, in an advertisement with a known transvestite and according to some this goes against the grain of dancehall music.
Minmi
The relationship between the artiste Minmi the equivalent to Mavado, in musical style of course, and Ryo the Skywalker the Japanese version of Vybz Kartel (wihtout the kool face) has broken down both on the personal and professional level. So much so that Ryo has no interest in performing at the same stage show as Minmi.
This is never good news for those dancehall music lovers - this is another unfortunate situation that needs to end quickly. We dont know if this was deliberately orchestrated to generate interest and music sales, conspiracy theories always fits well in any scenario, because right now both artiste are doing relatively well on the Japanese charts
There is a bit of irony though.. it is Minmi the Mavado equivalent who is have alleged to be associated the "freakyness"..and was rejected by Ryo ..the Japanese Vybz Kartel.... whilst here in Jamaica Kartel is more often associated with "freakiness" in comparison to the self proclaimed Gully God.
