![]() Beenie Man CURTIS CAMPBELL, STAR Writer Dancehall artiste Beenie Man will host his birthday party on Tuesday in downtown Kingston at 3B Port Royal Street. According to Beenie Man's management, the artiste will use the opportunity to promote a message of dancehall unity. "This year will be different from previous the staging. Fire Links and Stone Love will be reunited, and note that this is the first time they will be playing together since they split. Also, Boom Boom and Fire Links were also in a little friction, and that will be put aside as well at this event," said Blue, Beenie Man's brother/manager. Fire Links and Stone Love had been at odds since about 2003 until 2008, when a truce was called during a private meeting that was called by promoter Lena British. Carrying news It is said that the feud supposedly began with people in the streets 'carrying news' and, apparently, Wee Pow heard that Fire Links said something about him and vice versa. However, neither party actually confronted the other to get to the real story, and so the issue escalated. As a result, promoters were not allowed to book both sounds for the same show. Surprise Performance In addition to the sound systems, there will be a surprise performance at the fourth staging of the event, dubbed Dweet Again part four. Gates will open at 9 p.m., and women will be admitted free until midnight. Meanwhile, Blue said the reception to the party has been good, and they are looking forward to it. "The feedback has been incredible on social media, with the fans leaving comments. Right now, Beenie Man is doing interviews promoting it, so we are looking forward to a good support," he said. Also booked to play at the event are Pepper Movement, Super Sound and Kurt Riley.
