Journalist Bassy Alexander Speaks about AnitaSearchlight Newspaper - Bassy Alexander 26.NOV.04 About three weeks ago ah was doing some wuk foh ah client name Charles and right away me mind ran on ah ole Surveying buddy name Dennis Charles a.k.a. Jah Love. Now Jah Love was ah giant of ah man but yuh couldn’t ask foh ah cooler and gentler man, no fuss real Jah Love in truth; Arm-in will love to have him in his Calm-Pain foh ah Cool and Gentler Society. On the other hand Jah Love’s girlfriend, Anita, was the opposite, bold and aggressive, ambitious and multi-talented. And every body in the Planning Office where she wuk was crazy foh her, she was pretty, had a lovely voice and won gold at Musical Festivals; all ah we did jealous Jah Love. Jah Love might ah been quiet but not foolish, he didn’t waste any time, he call foh ah early marriage and took off with Anita to the States. That wedding was all Anita, she really shine like ah star that day, she sang ah solo at the Church, gave ah speech at the reception and ah can’t remember what else. That was nearly twenty years ago, so it had me wondering how all of ah sudden me thoughts were on Jah Love on Anita, same time the phone rang and the voice on the other end said: “ Hi Bassy, I’m Anita Charles, long time no see, do you remember me?” Ah was struck numb. We got into ah long conversation and she brought me up to date. She obviously did well foh she-self as was expected. Completed her University Education, did ah lot ah song writing and is now into the “Ministry foh Jesus” doing a fair amount ah community wuk! Then she got down to the real reason foh calling, she was very much into Recording Music and was coming home to launch her latest solo CD entitled “A Better Way to Celebrate”. Ah Gospel of course, mainly Caribbean rhythms, Calypso, Reggae and R&B. The Radio Stations have been playing some of her music, she’s ah very energetic singer and ah been hearing some real heart felt lyrics in those songs. The launching takes place this Sunday at Victoria Park, ah know we have ah way of breaking we neck to go hear the Far-ruin Artistes. But when is local, we does blank them. So ah challenging all Vincy Music Lovers especially Lovers of Gospel Music to go ah hear our girl from Vincylan as she shows us in song “Ah Better Way to Celebrate”! See all yoh there, ah gone again! One Love Bassy |
