'The Warlord', Bounty Killer, has reached his wit's end and he is now more cross, angry and miserable than ever before when it comes to tolerating his long- time rival Beenie Man.
By Teino EvansThe deejay said the lyrical feud between himself and Beenie Man has now escalated beyond just mere lyrics, as it has now become personal and could end up in a similiar situation to that which happened between the United States rappers Tupac and Biggie.
ADDITIONAL WEAPON
Earlier this year it became public that Beenie Man was engaged to the warlord's ex-girlfriend, D'Angel. Bounty believes this union is being used as an additional weapon in the lyrical war between the two.
"Him a seh all some tings yah now weh a guh cause fight, cause him a seh certain ting weh, a nuh question yuh a guh question it, yuh haffi stand trial, because there is certain ting a man can seh bout yuh an yuh can deejay back, but when a man seh certain tings, yuh tek action," Bounty Killer told THE STAR while referring to his past relationship with D' Angel.
"When a man a sing song 'gainst yuh, yuh tek lyrical action, when a man a mek allegation, a seh derogatory tings or personal tings musical different from personal. Just like if a man sing seh mi wicked dan Bounty Killer, him caan sing like me an my guns dem nuffa dan him, dat nuh nutt'n, but if a man a guh seh Killer a b....man an him a p.... hole an dem bwoy deh a b.. cat an ray ray, a different ting dat," he said.
"A nuh lyrics dat...yuh haffi mek a man know him should not seh dat, that is like tumping below di belt an there is no administration or body of people who come together an seh well it look like a wrong, inna competition everybody do wah dem waan do an some man always cross di line an nuh business. That's why yuh si mi leave the clash ting," Bounty Killer said.
"Yuh hear di topic weh him a call mi name wid, a nuh like Beenie jus do a song an seh tell Killer dis or ray ray, him a use di girl (D' Angel) an him an me, suh wah me fi do, deejay back bout him an di girl an me, that's not my topic, an him know, a nuh like seh mi did even a deejay bout him an di girl an him have all right to respond, he chose to start that topic, an that was his intention, to exploit she to get to me, but tru she stupid and vulnerable she neva realise wah him a do ar," Killer said.
IT A GET PERSONAL NOW
He added, "It a get personal now, because when him guh pick up my ex-girl, a personal ting dat, plus when yuh a seh tings bout she an me...yuh nuh hear him seh dem get heart attack, tru yuh galfren hot an si down inna mi lap, but dat neva have nutt'n fi do wid me cause him neva call nuh name, but him get bright now till him start seh Bounty Killer yuh a mad caa mi breed D'Angel. Wa me fi guh back guh seh, no mi nah mad tru yuh breed Angel, me fi guh sing bout D'Angel? Suh yuh a seh som'n weh yuh know mi cannot even take up, an if mi tek it up mi look like eeediat fi a sing bout gyal weh mi lef an you deh wid, how my life continue wid she when mi lef ar?"
TENSE ATMOSPHERE
Bounty says the tense atmosphere between the two of them has changed for the worse, as at a recent Uptown Mondays, "him seh Killa, yuh caan stop mi from call yuh name mi a bad man, yuh caan tump mi inna mi mouth, him waan die before him stop seh my name him seh, an mi neva hear him seh him modda name, him forget his mother's name an he remembers mine so much, every ting a Bounty di man love mi an can't get di chance fi express it, because mi shun him, suh him woulda kill himself fi get mi attention. All those allegations an den yuh going to go on stage an say the reason why Angel lef mi a tru she tired a di tongue, dat mean seh a tru mi a punk mek yuh a seh dem ting deh."
Bounty says, "di tension a guh wicked, when a competition a gwaan, it different from when a personal issue a gwaan, caa hear wah, him caan be no more competition, him flop..."
When THE STAR had spoken to Beenie Man in an earlier interview, 'The Doctor' said he is no troublemaker, as he says Bounty is the one going around calling his name.
In referring to the Uptown Mondays show Beenie says, "mi neva tek D'Angel from Bounty Killer, him lose ar all by himself. A him guh pon di mic an seh bout some p.... hole a hype because dem have a one dun out bicycle an fallen angel an mi jus guh answer him, a him first guh deh guh hold di mic..."
Beenie also added, "him (Bounty) a walk 'roun pon every stage show an a trace an a call up mi name an a call up D'Angel name, a who a di troublemaker? Mi nuh memba Bounty Killer man, Bounty Killer is a waste of my time, a me a run di place. Him fi jus accept dat, all him haffi do a run down mi lead an try catch mi back, a suh mi ting set up."
Regardless of this Bounty warns that Beenie is living dangerously.
SERIOUSER FANS
"If him seh certain tings, my fans dem a di 'seriouser' fans dem, everybody know a girl like him, but di people dem weh call dem self rude bwoys an gangsters like Bounty... Suh di real defenders of the earth a guh stand up wid me as a defender, suh if you a guh look like a offender to the defender dem a guh offend yuh, an him suppose to think about that...if him seh anything wrong my fans are going to take it personal, an dem wi lose dem way an don't even realise wah dem a do."
Bounty says this rivalry has been ongoing for 14 years now. "Him a guh di extra mile an a dat did cause di Tupac and Biggie war, when time Tupac did seh him f... Faith (Tupac's wife), suh a di same route Beenie a tek. Tupac guh sing song bout it, a di exact same ting Beenie a do him neva check di history, cause yuh nuh waan end up like none a dem, a him a do exactly wah Tupac do, so I guess him stupid, him waan end up like Tupac," the Killer said.
