TOUGH LOVE for artistes
Entertainers don't have it easy. In between dodging the stalkers and partners looking for a quick buck, it's often hard to sift through the proverbial haystack to find true love.

Finding Miss Lou's fitting final 'tenky'

Even as we said goodbye to Miss Lou, the Honourable Louise Bennett-Coverley, the nation continued to rake over her dead-lef, the legacy that all her hard work had gained us.


Touring not an easy road

Unlike those performers who travel overseas for a couple shows or club performances, some artistes will explain that a tour is really much more than that.


Two sometimes better than one

A catchy hook, a good rhythm and two or more musical talents combine to produce some of the hottest songs. Collaborations are not a new phenomenon but seem to have increased over the years, especially among local and international artistes..


Billboard a moving target

It was once said that local songs were unable to achieve much crossover success because international audiences found it hard to understand Jamaican dialect.
