Over the last few months Dancehall fans have been debating on who is the current King of the genre.
Now at least one up-and-coming recording artiste is giving Beenie Man the “King of Dancehall” title over incarcerated deejay Vybz Kartel. Newcomer Compreshan chimed in on the ongoing debate with his new song titled “Who ah Di Dancehall King?”
“Beenie kinda get the edge because mi deejay, ‘Beenie say hold on Yellow, don’t go weh wid the prize / I have more hits than most other guys / most number one that everybody comprise,'” Compresha said. “Beenie get a huge big- up; he has the Grammy advantage, even though Shabba has two.”
Compreshan also mentioned Sean Paul, Shabba Ranks, and King Yellowman, in the song. Compreshan released the song back in March via his own label, Earsdrunk. He says that fans have gravitate towards the single because of the debate it sparked over who is the current king of dancehall.
