Hawkeye Disses Mr. Vegas, Mr. G With Hard-Hitting New Song, ‘Deal With De Issue’

Nineties Dancehall deejay Hawkeye dissed fellow deejays Vegas and Mr. G with a hard-hitting, scandalous song dubbed Deal With De Issue where he spilled the beans about Mr. Vegas’ personal life and romantic entanglements.

Hawkeye deejayed with great glee: “This boy ya crazy/look how mi work hard and him ah tell people say mi lazy/you know what amaze me/you suck around too much/that’s why yu gal f— man right beside your baby.”

Ouch!

This is a not-too-subtle reference to an incident years ago when a video was leaked online of Mr. Vegas’ baby mother having relations with a man while his child was in the same room. Mr. Vegas was very open to the public about how hurt he was about the incident but was mocked in Dancehall circles because of his over-the-top histrionics.

Hawkeye dropped some other choice bombs, including insider gossip about a relationship between Mr. G’s woman and Vegas. Hawkeye made some other allegations about Mr. Vegas’ alleged involvement in ‘Peter King Sex Tape’ scandal.

This latest verbal skirmish has its genesis in a verbal throwdown on Instagram Live last week between Vegas and Hawkeye over the “ethnic market”, US$20, and ingratitude.

Hawkeye had also claimed, during a The Entertainment Report Podcast, that his late manager Byron Murray stifled his growth by denying promoters bookings unless Mr. Vegas was rostered. The artistes were part of Murray’s In the Streetz camp, and Hawkeye said Vegas encouraged the imbalanced treatment.

During his Live IG session two weeks ago, Vegas hit back saying  Murray always insisted that he carry Hawkeye on tour which he was against as he disliked the artiste’s “heavy, tone-deaf” voice.

He even said he had to salvage a show after Hawkeye was booed on stage. He said Hawkeye failed to maximize the opportunity as he consistently performed anti-homosexual songs, even after being booed. Vegas even accused Hawkeye of ‘carrying malice’ because of a US $20 loan.

In the aftermath of the animosities, Mr. G also accused Hawkeye of being “too ungrateful”, provoking Hawkeye’s wrath.

When will the mix up end?
