The vaguely "Arabic" feel of the Gaza Mi Seh Riddim inspired the dirtiest singjay in the West Indies to put down the pen about his cocky and—oh wait! Nevermind. One of the apparent drawbacks of living pon di Gaza (Vybz's neighborhood, not the fraught Strip in the Middle East) is that one of its commandments is no sexual activity, at all. Which begs the question, where is Vybz composing the majority of his songs? Regardless, that's not the point—it's a protest song against the crackdowns on dancehall culture in Jamaica, and it's one of the finest Vybz tracks since perennial fave "Ramping Shop."
