In February, it was rumored Notnice and Vybz Kartel got into an altercation, after Notnice was allegedly assaulted and his studio equipment removed from the house where he was working. It was also allegedly said that Vybz Kartel was behind the move.
However, both parties stayed silent on the matter. Yesterday, the Jamaican producer confirmed that his equipment, $2 million worth, was, in fact, taken away.
As part of the Portmore Empire, Notnice put his signature on a lot of riddims such as ‘Remand’, ‘Toaster’, ‘England Town’ and ‘Gangster City’, and he has been the man behind a lot of others popular productions for Kartel’s Empire.
Notnice and Vybz Kartel’s last collaboration was in April 2011 when Teacha called him for doing a song called “White Liver”.
