Dancehall Queen Spice is hailing IRIE FM as the station celebrates its 35^th anniversary this year.

Spice says every artiste aspires to hear their music on the station.

Speaking with IRIE FM’s Digital Chris earlier today, she declared ‘there is no Jamaica without IRIE FM.’  This, as she reflected on the memorable moment IRIE FM’s veteran broadcaster Big A played her song for the first time.

She added that IRIE FM has such widespread reach that builds careers.

Irie FM will be marking 35 years with a series of celebrations including two major events in August.
