Video: Vybz Kartel, “Don’t Run (Last Man Standing)”

January 13, 2009


When Mavado made his abrupt exit following a heavily anticipated clash with Vybz Kartel at last month's Sting festival, there's no way he could have foreseen the CGI wizardy that it would go on to inspire. It would seem the internet's gulliest of creepas just couldn't wait to fire up the Photoshop and paste his likeness into all things ridiculously unflattering, as well as hilarious. From someone setting audio of Mavado yelling for more volume over the Bad Company riddim and labeling it a Vybz diss to the above video for Kartel's "Don't Run," which if the short clips from Sting are to be believed, actually lends some sort of partisan accuracy to Kartel's narrative, the clash was a sight to behold. We're not too sure about Mavado hooking up Kartel's shape-up though. Regardless of the inspiration, with new dancehall often comes new dance, and "Don't Run" comes equipped for warfare by way of FADER-approved selector Skerrit Bwoy and friends' "Last Man Standing." Check out a video of them bussing the steps after the jump. Not nice!
