They got Buju too. Set his ass up.
"One thunderbolt can free our general...hold on Buju"
"One thunderbolt can free our general...hold on Buju"
a mercy
Shabba Ranks was an unfortunate victim of his upbringing. They don't play that homo shyt in Jamaica.... all Shabba was doing was expressing his beliefs on live television and that got himself blackballed from the industry. Same thing happened with Buju.
I didnt know about this damn 
Non Sequitur
Creep.
You can believe whatever you want, but you have to know when to just keep your mouth shut and cash checks
SHABBA CAREER been got BODIED back in JAMAICA he was seen as a TOO COMMERCIAL once the YANKEES (american rap crowd) was cosiging him after he got his deal with CBS
It wasn't politics perse..although his FAILURE TO "REBUKE" buju for his comments did hurt him INTERNATIONALLY...but back in jamaica..in 1990..HE LOST THE "BATTLE OF ALL BATTLES" when he clashed NINJAMAN in the STING COMPETION...
and in the words of NINJA..."mi ago MURDER HIM..MURDER HIM...inna competition I GO MURDER HIM!!!"
And unfortunatly that's what happened that night...SHABBA was "food" to Ninja
I'm a dancehall veteran fan...and just being honest..I AIN'T NEVER SEEN NOR HEARD A "MURKING" like that........Ninja earned stripes that night as the "42 gun badbwoi"....
shabba didn't have a chance..and it wasn't really his fault..Ninja violent themed tunes were the anthems in this era (early 1990s) where GUN TALK rulenobody was really trying to check for SHABBA's "girl/lovers" tunes in an age when the Showa posse and political violence was everywhere....basically NINJA ran SHABBA off to AMERICA....
And to add insult to injury his fabolous home in Olympic Gardens in jamaica...got ROBBED 2 night later.....

As has been said he was never the same after Ninja bodied him, Shabba sounded/looked like he wanted to cry was ridiculous.

lol who was that little kid?
was ninja man really about that life?
That was Risto Benji's byatch ass....
Shabba camp's sent him out thier to "save" Shabba's a$$....because they were under the impression that Risto who called himself the "the Son of Shabba" could garner some support from the young crowd who were feeling his hit "Punanny Passport".....
but as you can see......IT DIDN'T WORK!!
All it did was further infuriate NINJA whom tried to battle SHABBA in a "CIVIL MANNER" cause they had history together....ninja respected shabba's success
but when RISTO came out thier talking all that "Mi a Bad Bwoi" ...
NINJAMAN was like
and RAN DAT LITTLE FUKK OFF DA BUMBACLAAT STAGE!!!
Yeah Ninja been bout dat life..unfortunatly in a crazy coked out "DMX" way...
he is crazy as fukk..entertaining as hell..but he ain't got it all.....
about a few years after this "clash" he was being sought on allegations that he shot up Junior Reid studio , the same Jr. Reid whose voice is sampled on GAME's "ONE BLOOD" single...
ahhh the good ole days when dancehall was heartical!! (real)

I always look at that clip like
, not because of how Ninja ethered Shabba.... but how this dude Ninja let drugs get the best of him later on, smh.His performance at the 1992 Sunsplash >>>>>

What was the story between Ninja Man and Supercat? Both of them cats were about that life
no issue other than the fact they were "sparring" partners when they use to pass the mic together on the the STEREOMARRS SOUNDSYSTEM (crew) which use to clash other sounds in jamaica....
when you hear the track "RING DI ALARM" that was a track that was originally "freestyled" live whe Tenor Saw one of thier singers was signaling the call to alert the crowd that they had just "murdered" another soundsystem...
They were FULL OF TALENT....Stereomarrs at one time had (SUPERCAT, YAMI BOLO, TENOR SAW, NICODEMUS, JUNIOR DEMUS, UGLYMAN aka NINJAMAN, BURRO BATON, CUTTY RANKS, NITTY GRITTY and record selector DANNY DREAD) all on the same roster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i know i am being BIASED for stating that ...because i grew up a fan of thier sound...but real talk i challenge anyone to find a more TALENTED STABLE OF DANCEHALL ARTISTS
What brought about the clash between NINJA and CAT was basically the promoters feeding into the fans desire to have the two BAD BOYS at the time battled it out on stage......
Also the fact that SUPERCAT had just signed a big contract for COLUMBIA RECORDS and was seen as another commercial mainstream artist..that hometown favorite NINJA needed to murk out......
So it was strictly a musical war...nothing personal.....even though Ninja and CAT both threw darts at alleging each other's drug usuage....
"Cat talk bout mi pon coke...the first man to ever introduce me to Coke was SUPERCAT"!
although Cat did comment in an interview followign the clash that he felt the clash was sabotoged to "mek him lose" because he was no longer residing in Jamaica and he had gotten accepted by the AMERICAN MARKET...
but the counteraction to that argument is that SUPERCAT came in with a negative predisposition, because the previous year NINJA "murdered" SHABBA......and that SUPERCAT felt that even if he did WIN....that he wouldn't make it ALIVE out of jamaica...which explains him bringing the GUN ON STAGE which had fallen out of his pocket on to the stage......
To which Cat justifies as being NECCESARY considerign he had just beat the MURDER CHARGES against him in NYC regarding him defending himself during the shooting of NITTY GRITTY just months prior..
and was unsure if thier were still hostile elements bitter over his death...
all his life since his days sitting in the GENERAL PENITENTARY "death" has loomed over CAT's head......NINJA was just an animated character who made bad choices in regards to his street life which unfortunatly crosses over into his career.
either way....CAT and NINJA remain two of the best clash artists to ever grace the STING STAGE
