The camp of upcoming dancehall artiste Gage has responded to a recent interview done by deejay Alkaline by describing him as a copycat and fraud.
Alkaline in a recent television interview had said that he did not know who Gage was and he (Alkaline) is the only relevant dancehall artiste, except Mavado and I Octane.
However, Gage’s manager, Neil Daley, who spoke on his behalf, had some strong words for Alkaline.
“Time will tell, he will know who Gage is. He stole Gage’s song called Queng Dem and he stole Vybz Kartel’s songs and style. Alkaline is nothing but a copycat, he walks and bite Vybz Kartel, you are the youngest and the foolest,” Daley said.
He continued; “Who are you? You not even reach Tommy Lee level yet and yu a try style him in interview. If you want a clash to prove your worth then step up, bring it on.”
The manager in bashing Alkaline’s recent performance at Sumfest, described it as a flop.
“Him nuh get nuh forward at Sumfest. But mi like how him stand up and pretend that he was getting forward. Him contacts nearly drop out of him eyes when him a kill out himself onstage and the people dem nah respond,” Davis said while poking fun at Alkaline’s record Touch You which speaks about anal stimulation in sex.
Alkaline’s publicist, Kymona Bartley, when contacted for a comment, she said she was not prepared to speak on the situation and that Alkaline is still googling ‘what is a Gage’.
Alkaline is presently promoting his singles How It Feel, Queng Dem and Never End, while Gage has released new singles Thief Di Queng, Levels To This and Jah Jah.
