It seems 'Untouchable' was indeed too untouchable for all but one of the promised acts to perform.

The show, which was held at La Roose, Port Henderson Road, on Saturday night had promised many top acts, including, Rick Ross, Sizzla, Tony Matterhorn, Ken Boothe, Bounty Killer, Cobra, Macka Diamond, Mr. Vegas, Mavado, Lukie D and others. However, the closest patrons came to songs from those artistes was over the sound system.

Some minutes after 4:30 a.m. the barely-there audience was still listening to Metromedia's mix.

However, some entertainment was provided by a few female patrons tic-tocking, splitting and bouncing, and wining, much to the pleasure of the men. One male patron couldn't resist and decided to approach the female who had taken centerstage. He ran behind her and did a wine of sorts, but she quickly turned and jumped into his slim arms. It proved to be a mistake because they fell.

"When yuh a f- dem gal deh, yuh cyaan gwaan like yuh a play ludi, yuh haffi f- dem hard like yuh a stab ice," screamed the selector.

Another patron, a plump light-skinned female took the dance floor when Aidonia's Ukku was played. She dutty wined, crawled and wined, but to the chagrin of many onlookers who were close by, the army of liverspots between her legs didn't leave them wanting more.

The selector continuously gave a shout out to "Mavado and di Cassava Piece massive in di house" and "Vybz Kartel and di Portmore Empire inna di house". However Vybz Kartel and Aidonia only strolled in at 5: 30 a.m. and if Mavado had been at the venue, he must have worn Harry Potter's invisibility cloak, because he never performed.


This female patron stole the spotlight during the early hours of the show.

Finally, it was time for the performances. First up was Lazarus, a fresh act, singing a song no one knew or paused to listen to: maybe Lazarus shouldn't have been raised from the dead afterall?

Next up was Nesbeth who gave the crowd something to cheer about with I Love Her and two other songs. Other acts including Renegal from Newland, Portmore and Likkle Cute (singing "gal fi get f inna py. A wha do some gal wha a tek f- inna by?!").

Spice who was there decided to take the stage with Nuh Fight Ova Man, Round Di Rear, and a new song poking fun at Beenie Man. Though she had the crowd screaming for more, she didn't tarry; she told THE STAR earlier that she was not being paid, "so mi just a go show mi face fi mek dem see say mi deh yah."

Also performing were: Ras Ghandi and G-Whizz. The latter, doing two songs, one of which the crowd could have done without - with him singing 'ho-ho-hot' in falsetto.

Then at 6 a.m., the announcement came that it was time for Vybz Kartel and the Portmore Empire to hit the stage.

Kartel launched into one-liners from the songs: I Never, Smoke For Life, The Best Days Of My Life, Show Yuh Hairstyle, Beyonce Wine, Hot F-, among others.

Then there was a burst of energy when Aidonia took the mic and said the line 'bagga-bagga-bagga'. It got more intense when Deva Brat followed with the line 'bull-le-let!' , then launching into the song. It was back to Aidonia, Kartel and upcoming acts from the Portmore Empire.

Then at 6:30 a.m. Aidonia jumped from the stage, followed by Kartel and his entourage.
