Infamous Toni No he is the only one left to add his take on the issue at hand. Then a logical conclusion can be drawn from all parties to see where the misunderstanding or lack of communication started.
Now after watching this I'm now 100% sure in everything that was speculated, and the questions that were laid out. however before I get into my official thoughts on the matter, I'd like to lay out a few points. - The whole #GazaNation owes shenseea an apology, for accusing her of an act she didn't commit. After watching this, it's clear to see that all reply/comments made by the her about the collaboration, were directed by Elvis & her manager - Elvis is an opportunist/business man. nothing about this was done in the name of friendship or fairness. - The song that was released on Vybz Kartel's official VEVO, was a shot fired at Elvis for the fuckery he had done , not just to Kartel but his entire camp. - The real culprit behind this mess as speculated, was non other than the producer himself; Elvis Redwood People don't get me wrong enuh, me have alot of respect for Elvis due to the fact that he was the one that produced some of my favorite songs by Kartel. But this right here is not right at all. Elvis contradicted himself when he said, the song was 50-50 between him and Kartel, then went on to say that the song is his (notice his tone, which inferred that the song was completely 100% his). The song was most likely done a while back before it was released, however Elvis clearly had problems mixing and mastering the song using Kartel's vocals + the lyrics; hence why he needed a female to redo them. However, he never mentioned to Kartel the decision he had made, taking it upon himself to take full control over the song and do whatever gets him paid. Now I understand to alot of people that seems right, and it partially is in a business manner; but what about writing credit? Even though he flipped the song, he never gave the lyrical credit to Vybz Kartel, making it seem as though Shenseea did most of the work and Vybz Kartel just endorsed her. Again with all of this said and done, TJ & Dunwell probably smelt the rat, and based on their moral judgement it didn't seem right to take advantage on an artist based on the fact that they're not in a position to physically do anything about it. (And me want unnu understand people, if Vybz Kartel did deh a road this type of fuckery wouldn't of happened.) Seeing that the song became a big hit, Elvis further moved on to sell the song to VP records. All of which was done without even speaking to the main artist about their opinion on the matter. In fact based on his tone alone, I'm inclined to believe if it was any other artists in Kartel's position, he wouldn't have been so "kind" to have cut them a percentage on the deal. This is a basic example of an opportunist, and a suh you know yuh friend dem. He was quick to sell out the artist for a quick dollar. The only true friend weh me believe Vybz Kartel have in the music industry are: Russian, TJ & Dunwell (might be more, but I can't remember at the moment). Elvis fuck up same way, him shouldn't ah move suh with di boss. Ah true Kartel nuh voice fi him in years. Anyways, this whole matter just solidify the boss name even more in the history books. It just goes to show how truly talented he is. #Gazanation #LoodiFtShenseea #FakeFriends
I agree with you 100% but they don't owe her manager an apology. 2 of Kartel's KNOWN producers reached out to Romeich demanding him to hold off the song and he went full steam ahead without getting proper clearance from the Writer and Vocalist.
That is true, however we have to look at the fact that he was just a stepping stone in this for Elvis. He knew nothing about what was really going on behind the scenes, in fact the same person that contacted him about the song to begin with is who claimed it to be 100% there's
Based on the ONSTAGE interview, Romeich had a clear understanding that there was an issue with clearances on Kartel side but he couldnt allow the opportunity to pass him. Worse he already began spending and shooting the video. He deserves all the heat that he's getting now. Romeich is no amateur to this. IF it was a new comer then there would be more sympathy. But, he said: "Every hustler would Run Wid It"
And Mk Yuh know ah true you ah talk my youth yuh me me did affi edit dah one yah Shenseea manager is as much to blame as Elvis is in this situation Cause him know what was the order, however to save his own ass he denied knowing Elvis prior to the collaboration and avoided the question of who's song it was
Jasanda Ellis no lie trust me reading some comments sometimes hurt me to see how stupid these people are and most of them with the worst comment is some wanna b gaza fanz them and vendetta fanz them when them comments it hurt me to see how stupid most of them is not all most of them
him did have the original version a 5 people have kartel vevo channel excluding kartel the song did send to 3 other artiste so it possible one a the 5 get a hold a the song cause has him seh the original version is a leak
remember him a say kartel own him master so the vocals is owned by kartel the riddim is just for so unique so kartel did haffi get money from it cause Elvis no own kartel vocals
watched it to the end and must say u explained it as clear as day. i must ask you to refer me to a book i can read, to educate myself on the business. plz, i would really appreciate it.
Christopher Brown ha ha there's no book for dancehall business.... It's all shady. Who knows who. Who bigger and badder then who. Etc. Dancehall need a book though. Yuh right pon dat
Christopher Brown not officially. I read up in regards to the American music industry rules. All splits in regards to compensation should be on paper before the song is released. I'm a dancehall artist and have only seen that done once for me. If you ask they look at you like you're crazy. It's all a trick to be honest. All artist get shafted if they don't know what they are doing. Which most don't. But search online hun. Lots of free information on the Web.
Big up yuself Elvis , mi always rate you .. but we all know even you break down this and explain it inna di simplest form , dem gaza fans still ner go understand .you cya blame dem still , dem ner too bright
dancehall reggae lol not a surprise say dem gazaliens nuh too bright you can't hol any conversation with a gaza fan without dem get so hyper and waan cuss you off
nobody knows everything mr moronic encyclopedia, wikipedia, google scholar. u need to read on intellectual property rights. btw #gazaNation do not want to know everything #no "battywash" pon di gaza
@dancehall reggae every time my car engine starts at least 1 vybz kartel is played I have my masters degree i'm 26 and i'm a gaza fan I think that's a stupid statement to make people from all aspects of the upper echelon of society globally respect kartel and his work check yourself
But... Shouldn't you speak to the artiste that is on the song before you put another artiste on the song? Especially a well established artiste like Kartel? Anuh everybody u must work with. You were wrong for that. There's no going around that.
You're right cause Elvis said that Kartel wrote the entire song, so the loodi song is logically Kartel's song, he must know when another artist is put on his song
If he (Elvis) is the master rights owner he dont need no permission to put someone else on the track as long as kartel get full publishing for his lyrics it doesn't matter who is on it.....he mentioned something about the do's and dont with kartel and from my understanding kartel doesn't wants to be associated with certain artiste hence why he picked an up coming female to put on the song. as a producer u av certain type of hearing and he might have the song listening and a bright idea struck him that the song can be great if a female sings the verses and it would be stronger if a female says the words from a female point of view with more attitude.
just wanted to state if the song is elvis own ...he alone have the full version and splice it up ...how Kartel camp get the song and released it? remember elvis said he wanted and bad female on it... how Kartel vevo got there original version ????
You a mix up your self bredda u keep saying Kartel directly then correct yourself - something no right yasso - stop gwan like u do anything special bout the song u no mek no riddim nor write the song - what is your part in the muzik other than being a gate keeper for Kartel songs -
But the artwork was written by Kartel. We all know he wrote the song. Was consent given to change or modify his artwork? No one has the right to change the words of the song. He would not agree to that . Then to talk about 'eat a food' this is ludacrist
some ah uno people really need fi say nuthin when uno dont understand how di music business go , a elvis beat , kartel voice pon it so him pay kartel long time fi dat already so right now him nor need fi give kartel nuthin , him pay kartel fi di vocal already
Question - show me where in the video did he STate that he paid Kartel for the track - kartel don't sell tracks he owns percentages bra - go do your home work anno lil artist Kartel know it's a 76 percent of any of his muzik hitting ok
did you even notify vybz kartel that you was gonna involve a female artist in track or much to rewrite his verses into a female perspective. (i bet you didn't do that, you just jump to give out the man lyrics for rewriting without notifying the man. THAT IS WHY YOU GUYS WILL ALWAYS BE IN TROUBLE. (mess with what is yours which is the riddim and leave the man lyrics alone (it wasn't yours. simple explanation.
This is why the business fucked. No meetings, no contracts, people just doing what they want jus fi get a food. Why not do it the right way and get a buffet. How can you give a song that's not exclusively yours to another artiste...which you yourself stated in the beginning of the video and then say later on "a my song mi jus a be courteous" I'm confused. So him own Kartel lyrics?
this where Elvis confusing the thing; at one point he stated the vocals belongs to vybz kartel the beat belongs to him, so the share is 50/50 then he stated he give kartel a share of his which he don't of to because everything belongs to him, can someone explain this for me? I think the only way to release kartel songs due to the barrage kartel has on their contract was to switch up a little of the song, I turn it in to a calibration and breach the contract, I believe the official audio couldn't have been released without vybz kartel authorization, I know the stated that the producers ownes the song to do whatever they want with it but I think Elvis and kartel has an different agreement, and Elvis called on Keshon and he never said Keshon tried it but he didn't like it, he stated Keshon said no she wouldn't do it, basically they knew it was going up against vybz kartel agreement. he stated he try with 2 other females and he didn't like what he hear, why he didn't mention those 2females name? "lies" based on what Romeish stated he knew it was illegal too, they knew they would start a war with vybz kartel but he didn't care, he stated his artist want a break and he's getting an opportunity with vybz kartel if he shouldn't take it no matter what, he stated anyone get that opportunity would take it so that's what he did. you'll feeding off vybz kartel in prison from my views, you'll probably praying, platting and hoping he never comes out anytime soon, because you'll know you going to of to pay back everything you stole from him... honesty is the key to this business and you'll dis honest but I understand everyone of to eat but there is a price to steal from a curtain ppl like vybz kartel himself.
Onspot Entertainment .. The share is 50/50 for publishing, that's all Kartel needs to get out of it because it's his lyrics and vocals so he needs to get 50% from the publishing.. But the producer went on to license the song to VP which is what he is saying he didn't have to give Kartel anything out of that because as a producer he can license songs and tht money is all his so he is saying he gave Kartel something out of the licensing money which he didn't have to.
Why being a braggart for the first 10 mins papa? 🤷🏻♀️ 90 % of us aren't interested in who you are but what went down. That's it. You could've gotten to the point within 5 mins ah dun. You better not write a story as no one will be interested to read it. That guy knew why he was skeptical about the song. There's more to this "make-shift" story but feed yourself with it. P.S. Why RAMeish feels the need to call you before and after the interview? A visa eh get? Unu fishy bad!
Them man yah weh call them self producer - u don't build riddim , you don't mix nor master , all u do is call artist and mek money affi 5 people work and because them live a Jamaica them a work fi pennies - Stephen ,TJ, notice, chimney, don colleron, Russian are producers weh produce tracks - you abuse the fact that u have Kartel songs and he had u has a friend and use that to your advantage and a baay style u a style di man inna u interview neatly - if a never Kartel what the hell would u sell VP - you notice u stated they were skeptical when it came to Kartel but tru u love money bout " u will give him a pecie like Kartel a new artist are some waste man" you a crook when a di last time u get a NEW song from Kartel - last two album a TJ exclusively - u no get a song from bout 2015 - a done u done inna dancehall
Nick Dean last time I check TJ don't make beats.... him is a person who have a lot a projects same way... JayCrazie make his beats too......... all the "VIKING" album beats that produced by TJ: Jaycrazie made the beats
Dj-Garrikz MixTapes & Entertainment tj is a producer that mix and masters and lay tracks - tell me which other producer other than the 90s producers have Grammys like tj and don
Bigup yuhself Elvis a lot of people commenting here I can see knows nothing about music business , I don't know if it even mek sense to try educate them on the matter.
hey people a wa really a gwan inna di dancehall , look now loodi pon kartel vevo has been taken down , a bare politics inna di dancehall now ,well now loodi ner pon kartelvevo no more , mi know say gaza fans ago blame elvis fi dat .. haha
But people if you listen to the interview Vybz Kartel don't look like him have anything to do with what's going on these people need to do better and stop try find mek Vybz look like he's not a good person. it's really sad in the end the song did very well
Interestingly enough, Vybz Kartel's solo version was removed from his Vevo page today. Apparently someone posted it up without being permitted to do so and was subsequently reprimanded. I smell foul play and as a lawyer, I can't help but sense an impending lawsuit. That would be the cherry on top!
Most likely over 95%, or even more of all you commentators nah get a cent from all of this controversy that Mr. Palmer thriving on until today, lmao! All the disrespect to one another like crabz in barrel. What's our real priority in these perilous time's, kmt... I enjoy ent like the other man; nevertheless if you haven't profited for it all then why all the ignorance!?
as far as I can see this wasn't a official agreement with the main artiste and the artiste don't seem like he is properly compensated for his intellectual property (song).
Christ Loves You. John 3:16- For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
Don't really understand how the music biz work,but if me write n sing my song no one should own it or make money off it,guess when u not an independent artiste everyone eats off u
This is a question of intellectual property- everyone that created a part of the song, when registered, by law is entitled to compensation re contracts signed; regardless of who earns by promoting the song through their channels, the respective artistes are still entitled to compensation. Who cares if Ramesh paid to do the video? He invested in his artiste, and the success of the song would have determined if he would get back his money.
This yute acting like anybody really care outside Jamaica industry insiders who the song is produced by. Its only that Kartel is associated with this song that anybody even cares to discuss it. So if by Elvis own admission, says Kartel own his own Masters and his own vocals....what authority does Elvis, who ONLY has ownership of his music (not vocals), to associate a new artist with Kartels brand, without Kartel or someone authorize to do business for him's permission. Sounds like this Elvis guy over step his boundary clearly. He may have the authority to put out the Kartel song or license it, but I dont think he should have put any artist on the song without first clearing it with teacha out of respect. Because now you using his image and brand to create a platform for another artist that he has nothing to do with. She is not supposed to get ANY publishing, its a big enough privilege her just being on a song and benefiting from the look. It was not her creative idea, she basically did an interpolation of his lyrics. Thats like sampling basically. Just shows the Jamaica music industry is light years behind US.
truth is just truth. how can you be familiar with Kartel and not know that the man is sensitive about younger artists using his status and fame as a stepping stone to get into the game without really paying any dues...and then he doesn't benefit from that artists elevation... especially even more since the Popcaan situation. Teacha is like the equivalent of a Jay Z or Eminem to reggae. those type of artists rarely do collabs with a brand spanking new artist if the artist is not signed to their company or unless the artist pay a WHOLE lot of money for the feature. and even if you should secure the feature, thats just the vocals you paying for. Its a whole different negotiation now to use a man likeness in a video. So the fact obviously Kartel send word to fall back on the video and Elvis go tell Romeich to gwon put it out... Elvis may own the music but he don't own Kartel image so how can he give the green light to someone to use it. This is a business and stuff like this is why Jamaica music biz is light years behind the rest of the world... smh
But Elvis the problem to me is you authorized the usage of Kartel's lyrics...and now saying you sent him a thing out of ur good heart. Yuh sounding stupid away pa.
elvis firstly romeish say him nuh know you and you saying you talk to romeish on several occasions then romeish say the song split 50/50 and you a say kartel romeish and you get your cuts shen whatever her name is go on nightly fix taking all the credit for lyrics so who is really telling the truth
Thank you Elvis u cleared up this issue so well....and people are still asking for answers to the questions u already answered. People its not rocket science if Shenseea was given a % of the publishing rites that means to me that Kartel was okay with her take on his lyrics. This to me now is just unnecessary as the original is no longer on his vevo I just think gaza fans are upset because the girl is not apart of their empire. The tune hot and even those who callin people thief still ago listen it in 2020......
yow mi rate dah video yah still....big up urself Elvis a whole heap a people aguh try decipher this although it well str8 forward...somebody get pay off a zojak fi duh dat cuz dem feel romeich dem a get too hype....whole heap a money n effort di man put out,suh dem deserve whatever dem a reap....why now,why after romeich duh di interview dem blast dat....kmt! gwaaan duh ur ting yaaah Elvis nuh run eeeeen...u nuh new to dis....big up jay crazieee- real yute
don't care what anyone says the only reason why Kartel wait until 5 months after to tell everyone this is not a collaboration is because shenseea never big up Kartel and a lie that because she did big up so this gazanation a get upset about it
If you don't know anything about Music Business other than suss, this video is not meant for you to comment.
who is watching this right after shenseea interview....?
Me😂😂😂😂
vybz kartel a d only 1 can clear up dis
Infamous Toni No he is the only one left to add his take on the issue at hand. Then a logical conclusion can be drawn from all parties to see where the misunderstanding or lack of communication started.
Now after watching this I'm now 100% sure in everything that was speculated, and the questions that were laid out. however before I get into my official thoughts on the matter, I'd like to lay out a few points.
- The whole #GazaNation owes shenseea an apology, for accusing her of an act she didn't commit. After watching this, it's clear to see that all reply/comments made by the her about the collaboration, were directed by Elvis & her manager
- Elvis is an opportunist/business man. nothing about this was done in the name of friendship or fairness.
- The song that was released on Vybz Kartel's official VEVO, was a shot fired at Elvis for the fuckery he had done , not just to Kartel but his entire camp.
- The real culprit behind this mess as speculated, was non other than the producer himself; Elvis Redwood
People don't get me wrong enuh, me have alot of respect for Elvis due to the fact that he was the one that produced some of my favorite songs by Kartel. But this right here is not right at all.

Elvis fuck up same way, him shouldn't ah move suh with di boss. Ah true Kartel nuh voice fi him in years.
Anyways, this whole matter just solidify the boss name even more in the history books. It just goes to show how truly talented he is.

Actually I did kinda mention that, when I said "TJ & Dunwell probably smell the rat"
I agree with you 100% but they don't owe her manager an apology. 2 of Kartel's KNOWN producers reached out to Romeich demanding him to hold off the song and he went full steam ahead without getting proper clearance from the Writer and Vocalist.

But, he said: "Every hustler would Run Wid It"
And Mk Yuh know ah true you ah talk my youth
yuh me me did affi edit dah one yah
Shenseea manager is as much to blame as Elvis is in this situation
Cause him know what was the order, however to save his own ass he denied knowing Elvis prior to the collaboration and avoided the question of who's song it was
people who don't understand how the music business goes in Jamaica please don't comment and spew ur ignorance
Jasanda Ellis thank you well said
Jasanda Ellis so true.
Jasanda Ellis real talk
Thank you so much... bare idiots commenting on this with absolutely no clue about licensing or copyright

Big up Elvis we share ah name. Yuh talk the real tings and keep pushing!
Why Kartel camp dem upload it? Dem upset bout sumpn? Money etc???
But the artwork was written by Kartel. We all know he wrote the song. Was consent given to change or modify his artwork? No one has the right to change the words of the song. He would not agree to that . Then to talk about 'eat a food' this is ludacrist
FIRST TIME I SEE WHO ELVIS IS, I LISTENED LONGTIME TO HIS RIDDIMS
I like the song, but I just came to look at Elvis again...he's fine! lol
So you a say Kartel work fi free - weh u mean u Neva affi give him a dollar a people like unno a mash up dancehall
some ah uno people really need fi say nuthin when uno dont understand how di music business go , a elvis beat , kartel voice pon it so him pay kartel long time fi dat already so right now him nor need fi give kartel nuthin , him pay kartel fi di vocal already
Question - show me where in the video did he STate that he paid Kartel for the track - kartel don't sell tracks he owns percentages bra - go do your home work anno lil artist Kartel know it's a 76 percent of any of his muzik hitting ok
Nick Dean did you listen to the interview in full?
kartel own all his masters.
not because an artiste voice is on a track it means they have to get compensated for every dollar earned from it . the business is very tricky
did you even notify vybz kartel that you was gonna involve a female artist in track or much to rewrite his verses into a female perspective. (i bet you didn't do that, you just jump to give out the man lyrics for rewriting without notifying the man. THAT IS WHY YOU GUYS WILL ALWAYS BE IN TROUBLE. (mess with what is yours which is the riddim and leave the man lyrics alone (it wasn't yours. simple explanation.
Nuff people don't understand that to mek riddims and to produce a two different thing..
Just keep doing your work brother dont waste your time with these people.
This is why the business fucked. No meetings, no contracts, people just doing what they want jus fi get a food. Why not do it the right way and get a buffet. How can you give a song that's not exclusively yours to another artiste...which you yourself stated in the beginning of the video and then say later on "a my song mi jus a be courteous" I'm confused. So him own Kartel lyrics?
this where Elvis confusing the thing; at one point he stated the vocals belongs to vybz kartel the beat belongs to him, so the share is 50/50 then he stated he give kartel a share of his which he don't of to because everything belongs to him, can someone explain this for me? I think the only way to release kartel songs due to the barrage kartel has on their contract was to switch up a little of the song, I turn it in to a calibration and breach the contract, I believe the official audio couldn't have been released without vybz kartel authorization, I know the stated that the producers ownes the song to do whatever they want with it but I think Elvis and kartel has an different agreement, and Elvis called on Keshon and he never said Keshon tried it but he didn't like it, he stated Keshon said no she wouldn't do it, basically they knew it was going up against vybz kartel agreement. he stated he try with 2 other females and he didn't like what he hear, why he didn't mention those 2females name? "lies" based on what Romeish stated he knew it was illegal too, they knew they would start a war with vybz kartel but he didn't care, he stated his artist want a break and he's getting an opportunity with vybz kartel if he shouldn't take it no matter what, he stated anyone get that opportunity would take it so that's what he did. you'll feeding off vybz kartel in prison from my views, you'll probably praying, platting and hoping he never comes out anytime soon, because you'll know you going to of to pay back everything you stole from him... honesty is the key to this business and you'll dis honest but I understand everyone of to eat but there is a price to steal from a curtain ppl like vybz kartel himself.
Onspot Entertainment .. The share is 50/50 for publishing, that's all Kartel needs to get out of it because it's his lyrics and vocals so he needs to get 50% from the publishing.. But the producer went on to license the song to VP which is what he is saying he didn't have to give Kartel anything out of that because as a producer he can license songs and tht money is all his so he is saying he gave Kartel something out of the licensing money which he didn't have to.
Why being a braggart for the first 10 mins papa? 🤷🏻♀️ 90 % of us aren't interested in who you are but what went down. That's it. You could've gotten to the point within 5 mins ah dun.
You better not write a story as no one will be interested to read it.
That guy knew why he was skeptical about the song.
There's more to this "make-shift" story but feed yourself with it.
P.S. Why RAMeish feels the need to call you before and after the interview? A visa eh get? Unu fishy bad!
Them man yah weh call them self producer - u don't build riddim , you don't mix nor master , all u do is call artist and mek money affi 5 people work and because them live a Jamaica them a work fi pennies - Stephen ,TJ, notice, chimney, don colleron, Russian are producers weh produce tracks - you abuse the fact that u
have Kartel songs and he had u has a friend and use that to your advantage and a baay style u a style di man inna u interview neatly - if a never Kartel what the hell would u sell VP - you notice u stated they were skeptical when it came to Kartel but tru u love money bout " u will give him a pecie like Kartel a new artist are some waste man" you a crook when a di last time u get a NEW song from Kartel - last two album a TJ exclusively - u no get a song from bout 2015 - a done u done inna dancehall
Nick Dean last time I check TJ don't make beats.... him is a person who have a lot a projects same way... JayCrazie make his beats too......... all the "VIKING" album beats that produced by TJ: Jaycrazie made the beats
Dj-Garrikz MixTapes & Entertainment tj is a producer that mix and masters and lay tracks - tell me which other producer other than the 90s producers have Grammys like tj and don
u clearly dont know much about the music business...
Nick Dean Them will have the Grammy yes... but I think Stephen Di Genius is the most talented.. u no have to agree just my opinion...
Nick Dean tj don't bill riddim yute
All me a say is why after 5 -6 months this song a cause controversy????I just don't get it. Somebody a tell lie.....
Bigup yuhself Elvis a lot of people commenting here I can see knows nothing about music business , I don't know if it even mek sense to try educate them on the matter.
Yuh pure eedyaat boi...yuh madda...seen...yuh madda.

But people if you listen to the interview Vybz Kartel don't look like him have anything to do with what's going on these people need to do better and stop try find mek Vybz look like he's not a good person. it's really sad in the end the song did very well
Interestingly enough, Vybz Kartel's solo version was removed from his Vevo page today. Apparently someone posted it up without being permitted to do so and was subsequently reprimanded. I smell foul play and as a lawyer, I can't help but sense an impending lawsuit. That would be the cherry on top!
Most likely over 95%, or even more of all you commentators nah get a cent from all of this controversy that Mr. Palmer thriving on until today, lmao!
All the disrespect to one another like crabz in barrel.
What's our real priority in these perilous time's, kmt...
I enjoy ent like the other man; nevertheless if you haven't profited for it all then why all the ignorance!?
as far as I can see this wasn't a official agreement with the main artiste and the artiste don't seem like he is properly compensated for his intellectual property (song).
Check This Out Why Romiech Not Doing Strictly Vybz Again??? The Man Lock In 35 So Them Think No Road Pure Style A Gwan. Gaza Nation is Loyalty
somebody was trying to stop the artist and the producer food
shansea nah give di boss him respect #gazanation #freeworlboss. basically boss write dem lyrics my girl.

Good video. Not no producers fault either kartel nuh get him full money or Shenseea a walk a tell ppl a she write her verses and kartel hear back!

This is a question of intellectual property- everyone that created a part of the song, when registered, by law is entitled to compensation re contracts signed; regardless of who earns by promoting the song through their channels, the respective artistes are still entitled to compensation. Who cares if Ramesh paid to do the video? He invested in his artiste, and the success of the song would have determined if he would get back his money.
This yute acting like anybody really care outside Jamaica industry insiders who the song is produced by. Its only that Kartel is associated with this song that anybody even cares to discuss it. So if by Elvis own admission, says Kartel own his own Masters and his own vocals....what authority does Elvis, who ONLY has ownership of his music (not vocals), to associate a new artist with Kartels brand, without Kartel or someone authorize to do business for him's permission. Sounds like this Elvis guy over step his boundary clearly. He may have the authority to put out the Kartel song or license it, but I dont think he should have put any artist on the song without first clearing it with teacha out of respect. Because now you using his image and brand to create a platform for another artist that he has nothing to do with. She is not supposed to get ANY publishing, its a big enough privilege her just being on a song and benefiting from the look. It was not her creative idea, she basically did an interpolation of
his lyrics. Thats like sampling basically. Just shows the Jamaica music industry is light years behind US.
I understand what he saying
a from last year you did fi get beating fi this enuh ...... #GAZA_THUGZ
truth is just truth. how can you be familiar with Kartel and not know that the man is sensitive about younger artists using his status and fame as a stepping stone to get into the game without really paying any dues...and then he doesn't benefit from that artists elevation... especially even more since the Popcaan situation. Teacha is like the equivalent of a Jay Z or Eminem to reggae. those type of artists rarely do collabs with a brand spanking new artist if the artist is not signed to their company or unless the artist pay a WHOLE lot of money for the feature. and even if you should secure the feature, thats just the vocals you paying for. Its a whole different negotiation now to use a man likeness in a video. So the fact obviously Kartel send word to fall back on the video and Elvis go tell Romeich to gwon put it out... Elvis may own the music but he don't own Kartel image so how can he give the green light to someone to use it. This is a business and stuff like this is why Jamaica music biz is light years behind the rest of the world... smh
But Elvis the problem to me is you authorized the usage of Kartel's lyrics...and now saying you sent him a thing out of ur good heart. Yuh sounding stupid away pa.
elvis firstly romeish say him nuh know you and you saying you talk to romeish on several occasions then romeish say the song split 50/50 and you a say kartel romeish and you get your cuts shen whatever her name is go on nightly fix taking all the credit for lyrics so who is really telling the truth
heart a love me brother
Thank you Elvis u cleared up this issue so well....and people are still asking for answers to the questions u already answered. People its not rocket science if Shenseea was given a % of the publishing rites that means to me that Kartel was okay with her take on his lyrics. This to me now is just unnecessary as the original is no longer on his vevo I just think gaza fans are upset because the girl is not apart of their empire. The tune hot and even those who callin people thief still ago listen it in 2020......
Ok so making a deal with 2 other parties with a song that he is PART owner of is right to you?
yow mi rate dah video yah still....big up urself Elvis a whole heap a people aguh try decipher this although it well str8 forward...somebody get pay off a zojak fi duh dat cuz dem feel romeich dem a get too hype....whole heap a money n effort di man put out,suh dem deserve whatever dem a reap....why now,why after romeich duh di interview dem blast dat....kmt! gwaaan duh ur ting yaaah Elvis nuh run eeeeen...u nuh new to dis....big up jay crazieee- real yute

don't care what anyone says the only reason why Kartel wait until 5 months after to tell everyone this is not a collaboration is because shenseea never big up Kartel and a lie that because she did big up so this gazanation a get upset about it
Big up urself Elvis🙌🏾 more time GAZA fans too jumpy n ready fi jump down ppl throat... seems to me like somebody just wah cause mischief🤔
I hope unnu now si seh jail boss is a liabilty. No upcoming artiste should ever work wid dat filthy serpent ever again.
