Bramma escapes gunman attack

Contributed - Bramma

According to a release sent to The STAR, it was a frightening experience for young dancehall artiste Bramma, driving into his Duhaney Park home one night after leaving the studio as he was pounced upon by a lone gunman. Thinking quickly, however, he sped off from his gate, turned on to a road close enough to his home to confront a waiting car with what appears to be more men.

Upon making an alarm, the car sped off and the matter was reported to the police but it did not end there. Several nights thereafter, it has been brought to his attention that an intruder had been spotted waiting in his yard as well as his next door neighbour's.

Not taking any chances and considering the tragic circumstances under which both Oneil Edwards (former member of the group Voicemail that lived in Duhaney Park) and young Copper Cat lost their lives, Bramma has taken the necessary precautions.

Bad mind active

But it was his frustration with the whole ordeal that led him to pen his story and later record and release a track called Nuh Trust People on the Pepper rhythm produced by Stephen McGregor. Already Irie FM DJs Smurf and Wayne have found favour with the song, giving it some good spins during their radio time slots.

At this point, Bramma does not know if this particular song is one written to further extend his popularity but rather to make known his ordeal he said in the release, "Bad mind active, you don't have to do nothing for people to hate on you and they will hate you to the point where they kill you, so one have to know what they do in these times."
