Brick and Lace told of how 'Love is Wicked' and brought some back-up dancers along to bring home the point.
If you were over 21 years old you might have felt a little too old to be at the Youth View Awards after party held at the Cuddyz in New Kingston on Saturday night.
This party definitely stuck to the theme of young, hot and hype as it was mostly attended by teenagers. The females were dressed in raunchy outfits and the young men were dapper in the blazers or the popular Ed Hardy wear. It seemed to be an occasion for the teens to socialise and that they did for most of the time.
Roll out
Though preoccupied with greeting each other they found the time to 'roll out' with the latest dance moves. Their aim was made much easier as DJ Chris was versed on the latest songs and kept them on their feet as he played tunes like Party Like A Rock Star, Sensual Seduction and Back It Up. The girls wined as low as possible while the boys displayed the very latest dance moves like 'Gully Creeper', 'Chiney Kay', 'To the World' and 'Boasty Bounce'.
After DJ Chris completed part of his set, the party animal of FAME FM Kurt Riley took the turntables. He had the patrons jumping and waving to the soca songs. During this time there was a four-person congo line running around the venue. He smoothly glided back to dancehall with Beenie Man's Dude and Back It Up while Aidonia told them about their Ukku.
Meditative lull

The dance floor was quickly cleared by Queen Ifrika's Daddy and Etana's Meditation. Some life was regained to the party though when DJ Chris unleashed Bugle's Exercise and Journey.
He went on to play hip-hop songs like Bartender, Icebox and No One. It was at this time that American Actress Essence Atkins who hosted the Youth View Awards started dancing with one of the members of Shady Squad.
They paved the way for the live performances that were expected by the patrons. Voicemail started the segment and gave a decent performance before they introduced Christopher Martin who had the ladies screaming. Brick and Lace took the stage next and told the females that Love Is Wicked on a soca beat.
It was Young, Hot and Hype Male of the Year Busy Signal who gave the best performance at the party. He had both men and women almost joining him on stage to sing songs like Jail, Step Out and Pon Di Edge. He even gave them a taste of his new single Curfew.
The patrons started exiting the party at around 2:15 a.m. which led to the eventual end of the party.
