How old are you now? That was the question on everyones lips Friday night, as soon as Macka Diamond exited the black stretch Limousine, looking flawless, not a day over 21.
The Money Goddess looked fabulous and was obviously in a generously-fabulous mood, because what other entertainer you know gets up and say lets have some fun and make people have fun too, by winning money, real money?
And what about the fridge, stove, washing machine, phone, Iron, pressure-cooker, clothes, liquor and the list goes on and on and on Money-O-Bingo-with-the-Stars, Macka Diamonds birthday bash, held at the Ranny Williams Entertainment Centre, Friday January 25th in Kingston, was simply that, a bash, and one with a difference. The crowd was different, and the night was incident free. What was advertised was delivered, with even a blind lady coming out for bingo and to say happy birthday to Macka.
Late start aside and the lengthy bingo segment, Macka Diamonds Money-O-Bingo-With-The-Stars was a success with all the trimmings to make it different. Diamond District Ja. can put a feather in their hat, because from the set-up to Mackas entrance, everything was on point.
But what is a night without the police showing up to stop the fun these days? Which like almost all the major shows recently, Macka Diamonds birthday bash was not speared. They showed up and did the norm, shut it down, but not before Bingo-with-the-Stars also saw energetic live performances from the likes of Capleton, Coco Tea, Junior Reids sons, Andrew and Wadda *lo**, Shane-O, Bling Dawg , DAngel, Hero, ra**c*at Shady, Fanton Mojah and a host of others before the premature end.
But with all that said, one thing is for sure, with the Money Goddess, talk of money is never just that, because like she said on stage before thanking her fans, it was money-money-money-moneymoney fi mi Right before saying, thanks for coming out to my 21st Birthday Party, well do it next year again when I will be 21 AGAIN!!
