Vybz Kartel Starts "Dub Plate Insurance" Business
The Irish & Chin blog carries an interesting article about how Vybz Kartel is, after voicing a dub for a sound system, 'persuading' that system to pay extra to guarantee against a counteraction.
Irish & Chin claim that Kartel is voicing a particular tune on dubplate, then contacting rival sound-systems and offering them a counteraction. Unless the original sound who voiced the dub pays extra $$$s then Kartel voices the counteraction. In a world where your sound's reputation can be made or lost on a single soundclash event, sounds will be willing to pay the extra $$$s.
US$500 buys you a month's immunity from Kartel's counteraction, where as US$750 will get your 2 months immunity.
