Dancehall Queen Carlene asks "What would you do if you found a used condom in my bag?" Beenie Man replies "Me woulda kill yu!" This is after returning from a three-day trip to New York when she finds a used condom in his luggage.

When Milton Wray, author of the book Who Am I? The Untold Story of Beenie Man ended his reading of a passage from the ace deejay's biography with that exchange from dancehall's once hottest couple, there was a collective laugh at the Devonshire, Devon House, Hope Road, St Andrew last night.

And the first passage he read had ended on a similarly, sexually tense note, as after detailing Moses Dean Anthony Davis' birth and the joy of his parents, Wray read that that joy soon turned to suspicion after people questioned "whether Lloyd was truly the biological father of the child".

Who Am I, dubbed the first dancehall biography, was launched to a full house, music being as much a part of the evening as literature. Beenie Man walked the red carpet into the Devonshire to King of the Dancehall and ended the official launch, hosted by Empress, with a freestyle jam encouraging all to "buy de book".
