There are strong rumors of an alleged beef between Jamaican reggae dancehall music artists Demarco and Popcaan.
Apparently some people think one of Demarco latest single, Kingston City, where he voices on Rick Ross Stay Scheming Riddim, is a song that disses Popcaan. Re-posting it, if you missed the official video, that came out last month.
Demarco is currently in the studio recording his upcoming mixtape titled Nuh Dirt and he says that are the fans that are crediting the song as a diss.
The song was a freestyle intended to be for ZJ Chrome and the new mixtape, and he did not intentionally started a feud, but however in case somebody took it as a diss he is lyrically ready to defend himself. Also while the video is titled Kingston City, somebody says it was filmed in Portmore, and in the song Demarco bigs up Cassava Piece.
In ‘Kingston City’, Demarco deejays that a bunch of people stole his own style, including Popcaan. Demarco doesn’t fret tho, his single – Love My Life – got 25 million views on YouTube and he is already been performing all over the world.
Here one of Demarco‘s line in Kingston City :
“Nuh mek mi mek forensic white chalk the street, yaaooow!
Dem tief mi style and nuh ask mi fi it, mi hear behind mi back some bwoy a beat off dem beak but tell dem wey mi si heart nuh leap.”

Popcaan recently released a new single, titled Fry Yiy, also rumored to be a diss that aims to Demarco. He goes: ‘The whole place a sey Fry Yiy, some bwoy fi write some hit song and stop cry.’

If you listen carefully to all the songs involved in this new Dancehall feud, you’ll understand why they’re arguing.
While voicing on #TNS Riddim with Throw Me Corn, Demarco clearly underlines he is the originator of that yaaooow! that quickly became Popcaan new signature.
What to say. A lot of their fans wrote in various forum that is just not fun to see two of their favorite artists beefing. It’s not a matter of who is bigger. Demarco has been around longer and he is surely more known and has more notches under his belt.
In the same time it’s easier to beef that taking the higher road. And not sure more beef is what Dancehall music and the World need right now.

Demarco is a veteran and a gifted artist and doesn’t has to prove himself. Popcaan is a fresh artist to the mainstream scene, he is having a fast progressing career and raising to the top because he is skilled and he works a lot, maintaining his own formula, like Addi his daddy.
Also Poppi has been starving and singing for quite few years, he didn’t just voiced on Lost Angel Riddim and got famous.The young Andre Sutherland is making a lot of noise and he is the hottest thing in Dancehall right now where all the youths, over all the young ladies, go in a frenzy wherever he appears.
