Dancehall artistes Andrew and Wada *lo** were among the thousands who experienced the 4.4 magnitude earthquake in Los Angeles, California, shortly after 4 a.m. yesterday.

"We are here and safe. I was asleep when the earthquake happened, but it woke me up. We jus' grateful and give thanks that it wasn't bigger or worse than that," said Andrew *lo** yesterday. So far there have been no reports of damage, injuries and power outages associated with the earthquake.

Andrew and Wada *lo** left the island last week for a one-month promotional tour of California to promote their new singles Find A Way and Irie and their still untitled upcoming album.

"So far the shows have been going well. We did a show at a club in Hollywood the other night and in Santa Barbara and some more and we are getting ready to do some more and mad up di place," said Wada *lo**, the other half of the recording duo known for hits including Hustle Till The Day That I Die, Money Print, Hustla For Life, (La La La) and more.

The duo returns to the island the first week in April.
