While it has almost become the norm for the feud to rear its head at parties and for party-goers and even some selectors to choose sides, innocent householders are now being dragged into the dispute.

The latest incident, inspired by the Gully/Gaza madness, reportedly took place in St Andrew about three weeks ago. THE STAR was informed that the householder, a female we will call Milli, was at home listening to a mixed tape featuring both Vybz Kartel and Mavado. It is alleged that she was approached by some supporters of Vybz Kartel, who demanded that she turn down the music because a Mavado selection was being played.

This incident would not be the last in the community either, as about two weeks later, a motorist visiting someone was also subjected to the 'no Mavado law'. A source told THE STAR, "Dem tell him fi turn off di music 'cause dem nuh play dem bwoy deh song dem. So im seh dem can't tell him wha fi play inna him car." He was reportedly slapped across the face for disobeying and questioning the order.

Although the divide has been making headlines for months and has caught the attention of many, our source believes that it has got out of hand if innocent people cannot listen to the music of their choice. He told THE STAR, "I don't like Gully or Gaza because of the whole violence thing. They are using it to separate people. Cause if you seh Gaza and me seh Gully, wi a nuh fren. That's how dem looking at it."

When THE STAR contacted Vybz Kartel, he dismissed suggestions that his 'followers' were using violence to intimidate others and to dictate who or what they listen to . He said, "No one in my immediate surroundings as it relates to entourage, so to speak, has any desire to dictate what people listen to nor do we care. And in the same breath of air, I want no one who is a Gaza supporter to be intolerant to other people's choice of music, much less react in any violent way, shape or form, 'cause that's not what the Gaza is about."
