SET to take the stage of the National Stadium on April 16, the flaccidly-named Louis Grandison, better known professionally as ‘Dexta Daps’, is making his long-anticipated return to Guyana.
The Jamaican reggae singer, known for his dancehall songs and seductive ballads, will be preforming with a live band at what promises to be the premiere event of the Easter season.
The concert is said to be a part of the artiste’s ‘vent x owner’ promotional tours for his recently released music and, it will come as no surprise, the ‘early bird’ tickets for the concert have already been sold out.
You can bet the event will be well-attended. But, not everyone is a fan of the Daps, nor are they excited for the artiste’s return to Guyanese soil.
We see you, men!
While most of the girlies would have already purchased their tickets, or are planning their outfits, the fellas are no doubt plotting the sabotage. It will not prosper.
If you’re an avid fan of Mr Daps, you would know its customary for the artiste to be very interactive with his fans during his performances. It’s odd that they just so happen to be female. It cannot be intentional.
But maybe we can say sometimes he’s a little bit too interactive. I’m sure y’all have the social media videos which resurface every cycle.
During the performances of some of his sensual songs, the artiste invites an enthusiastic fan on stage. And of course, you know what happens.
In 2019, the artiste would have made his first visit to the land of El Dorada where he landed himself in the ancient county of Berbice. Needless to say, some of his fans took the lyric “bring it to the owner” a little too seriously.
Mr Daps would have left the ancient county with more than what he bargained for—Escandalo! And not just any scandal, it was the most scandalous scandal.
Pandemonium had hit the local entertainment scene in Guyana, as the social media detectives tried to piece together the puzzle the artiste had left behind.
There was an alleged entanglement with a fan. We were never able to confirm, and so legal purposes, it remains alleged.
A conflicting video of a man who appeared to be ‘the Daps’ was leaked on the socials, and of course, the Facebook detectives had begun an investigation.
Daps, in a live video to his social media following, admitted that he was indeed the man in the video, however, he denied the alleged entanglement with the fan and claimed that it was ‘set up’.
The Facebook detectives were not buying this. Some efforts were made to identify the fan but with the all the heat and attention, the fan had deactivated their social media accounts and went ghost briefly.
And much like any other scandal, it eventually faded into the archives.
The memory is still there, and the men are now warning their ‘bro-gads’ and ‘bro-skis’ to hide their girlfriends and wives.
But, we move. The girlies are excited for the concert and are looking forward to being hypnotized by the infamous ‘wu wu wu’.
