Markus Myrie has denied allegations that have been circulating on the Internet suggesting that he has impregnated fellow dancehall artiste D’Angel. According to the son of Buju Banton, mischievous persons are only seeking attention by starting rumours.
“Me and D’Angel have a musical relationship. These are all rumours and allegations and I am not having it, and this pregnancy rumour, we not having it. Me and Angel have been working together from last year. People probably see me at An So Thursdays and make assumptions,” he said.
The producer explained that the allegations spiralled from an interview D’Angel had on a television show in which she appeared to have gained a few pounds.
“She did an interview and people seh she looked fat, so they started saying she was pregnant. But I really don’t know how my name drop een,” he continued.
“This hasn’t really affected me negatively because everybody around me knows that me and Angel only do music together. I am not intimately involved with any female in the music industry,” Myrie said.
The Bad Mind Dem A Pree producer issued some strong words for the persons fuelling the allegations.
“People who pushing these things have nothing to do with their time and they need to find something to do because the devil finds work for idle hands. Why they don’t talk about mi number-one single with I Octane and Bounty Killer? And the new ‘Dead End’ rhythm and Black Ryno single Bere Gyal?” he said.
“I am just focusing on music right now. The ‘Street Bomb’ rhythm is out now and I am giving thanks to everybody who is supporting it. But rumours – wi not having it; bad mind people – wi not having it; red eye people – wi not having it. Wi not having it,” Myrie said.
D’Angel also went ontwitter.com to dispel the allegations.
“Still single not ready to mingle. Noooooo, peeps! I’m not pregnant!!!! That dress I wore on Fiwi Choice just made me look fat. lol,” she tweeted.
