Dancehall heavyweights Beenie Man, Vybz Kartel, Munga and Mavado will all be vying to steal the headlines for the Dancehall Xplosion show at Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest in Montego Bay this year.

Beenie Man has the number one single in the country Beenie Mans Back It Up, and that song has been the selectors overall choice of hottest girl tune for the summer.

Mavado has been on a tear all year long and his Gully Side is at #7 in Richie Bs chart. He has several hit singles such as Chat Too Much, Touch the Road and Badmind Like are sure crowd favourites.

In the meantime, Kartels combination single with DAngel, Baby Father is #10 on Richie Bs chart., and his number one hit, Wine Pon You is now #8 on the Richie B charts. VKs latest release, Empire Army, on Stephen Di Genius McGregors new joint is one of the hottest singles on the street, and accompanied by a grimy video shot on the Gaza Strip in Portmore, word on the street is that it will be the bad mans anthem for the Summer.

Munga is the new ras on the block. His singles, Bad From Mi Born, Wine Pon It and Gangsta Ras are likely to pull the biggest forwards for the night. Munga has been tearing up shows across the island and his tracks are enjoying heavy rotations on the airwaves.

It's hard to say which performance will attract the most forwards and crowd satisfaction but we are sure  that this years staging of the event promises quality performances as these artistes will be gunning for a high climax.
