From a touch of classicism by violinist Mark Stephenson to deejaying skills by selectors Leftside and Esco, this'after party' was exciting.

The highlight, of course, was the appearance of Beenie Man and Bounty Killer who cemented their recently renewed friendship with a sizzling performance. Accompanied on stage by a number of other popular artistes and their usual countless entourage, the two top deejays exhibited friendly rivalry.

Following a medley of tunes alongside fellow deejays Bling Dawg, Kip Rich, Predator and Wayne Marshall, Beenie and Bounty launched into a tirade of '90s songs, songs they had once used to lyrically attack each other. This time though, those stinging words flowed smoothly and without malice.

The patrons loved every minute of the groups' performance, a set that was laced with raunchy lyrics, hilarious dancing and a whole lot of excitement. Whistles and cheers rang loudly through the venue and the women, especially, could barely contain themselves as they screamed and scrambled to get a better view of their sometimes-hated but oftentimes-loved artistes.
