Captured was the Theme of the recent Spice album launching held in Kingston 6, Jamaica on November 7^th, 2018.

Entering the venue, I was uncertain of why ‘Captured’ but as the show progressed, we got the chance to hear the moving testimonies of her childhood and growing up without major necessities. She also mentioned the ten-year binding contract she had with VP Records which she believed held her back as her talent grew.

 

To kick-start the question and answer session, Spice was brought onto the stage sitting on a “White Golden Throne” carried by two muscular men as the fans erupted with excitement. Mediated by the host Miss Kitty, Spice answered random questions from the media & audience at large. She sounded very scripted and monotonous repeating the same sentiments about her controversial photo release for the song ‘Black Hypocrisy’

 

As the night prolonged, Spice asked for the microphone and delivered a few of her RAUNCHY performances that the fans all knew and loved. She also took the liberty to highlight young Rising Star, Monifa Goss and her All-Female Band ADAZEH.

 

With all that said, my disappointment could have never been greater in a person that I don’t know personally. Spice took an interview with one of her harshest critics to the extreme by degrading him and his mother with one of the most derogatory terms used in Jamaica. Due to her miss informed and ignorant status, she was not even capable of completing the interview in a state of professionalism, which she obviously lack.

 

 Despite being a woman, public figure and mother of two children including a daughter, she demonstrated that she has no moral compass. Her behavior towards the media personnel was disgusting and unacceptable. But I guess that is what “put food on the table”.

 

Spice,…one step forward…..ten steps backward.
