Mavado: Come On Over For A Caribbean Chicken Satay

EVER HEARD THE TERM ‘The Blacker The Berry” ; used in a song by US singer Kendrick Lamar (2015), It's a term in the Urban Dictionary that refers to the plain old fact that the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice'.

But what with the world not looking - the black-get-back - (another term from the urban dictionary) movement seems to have gathered pace! What with my favourite singer, Mavado, a Jamaican who goes by the real name of David Constantine Brooks, 'wanted by Police for shooting incident', f**ckry - https://urbanislandz.com/2018/06/06/mavado-wanted-by-police-for-shooting-incident/

THE ONE THEY CALL MAVADO is a UK MOBO Award Winner, who has collaborated with many of the world's top urban acts including the UK’s Chipmunk (Every Gal) and state side, who with the likes of Busta Rhymes, Wyclef, Fabulous, Akon, Snoop Dogg and Jay Z to name but a few, has done more than enough to put him on the map. And, if that wasn't enough, is featured on Drake’s album Thank Me 2016).

As for his current troubles? Can't say I care too much for the blurb... only wish him all the best...

p.s. Movada, I'm a dab hand at Chicken Satay - you can always come on over to mine....
