Producer Flava McGregor Defends Beenie Man Against MP Desmond McKenzie
Written byK'Shema Francis-Pitt
Producer Kemar “Flava” McGregor has come to the defense of Dancehall heavyweight Beenie Man following comments made by West Kingston Member of Parliament Desmond McKenzie.
McKenzie claims that Beenie Man’s song “Weh Di Money Deh,” which criticizes the government’s handling of Hurricane Melissa relief funds, will not sell.
During his address at the West Kingston Constituency Conference on Thursday, McKenzie also boldly declared that the Grammy-winning deejay has not had a hit song in more than 20 years.
However, Flava McGregor, who produced Beenie Man’s latest album Eminence, has described the politician as “out of touch.”
Released on November 2, Beenie Man’s “Weh Di Money Deh” addresses public concerns and ongoing discussions surrounding the government’s distribution of Hurricane Melissa relief funds.
The controversy follows Beenie Man’s interview with British broadcaster ITV News, during which the deejay accused the government of distributing the hurricane relief funds “the wrong way.”
