Lady G returns

Lady G

Hasani Walters, STAR Writer

Back in her heyday in the '90s, Lady G was one of dancehall's leading female artistes with her hard hitting lyrics which led to several hits like Nuff Respect, Samfi Lover, Legal Rights, Table Talk, Breeze Off, Me Or Di Gun and Thank Him.

Years later, the deejay has somewhat been out of the limelight, but now, she says, it's time to return to her winning ways.

Through her recent release titled Comeback, Lady G deejays of having to re-enter the dancehall arena due to the inability of the current artistes to 'run it'.

In the song she deejays, 'A wah dem a do wid di music? Yow, right yah now is jus a declaration, Lady G a chat/ Afta mi gi dem it fi run it an mi gi dem it fi shot/ Seh dem nah do nutten mi affi tek it up back.

Weh dem did deh wen from di males we a draw fi mic/ Well tell dem listen to mi voice/ Lady G come back mi come back fi tek it up/ Seh mi come back mi come back fi rip it up/ If me an dancehall did vex well now wi meking up cause mi come back fi tek it up.'

"Mi neva really gone anyweh mi did still deh yah in spirit, but because of some family problems mi did kinda slow down on the recordings part of the business," Lady G told The STAR.

She continued, "Plus mi neva really see any producer who could really get the best out of Lady G."

She said that although she has been absent from the local scene she has been doing shows in places like Europe, France, Italy and Holland.

Upon her comeback, Lady G believes she will be warmly received.

"If I didn't come back in it I know I would have a problem because people see me in the street nuff and a ask Lady G wah yah do, yuh need fi step back inna music, yuh space deh deh a wait pon yuh," she said.

Lady G started deejaying in 1984 but only began getting recognition in 1987. After being booked on Sting in 1988, she said her career just took off.

She has been working on recent singles like Comeback, Mi Property, No Beating Stick and A Man Fi Miself which are set for release soon.

Bookings for Lady G will be controlled by Isaiah Laing's Supreme Promotions. Fans can also interact with her at www.facebook.com/ladyg.fyffe.
