Shaggy and friends was not to go without a little contraversy, the mostly elegant affair was hosted on the lawns of the Jamaica house. Bounty killa apparently was called on by the gully god and in his set he lashed out at matters some would deem not fit for the occasion which left the mostly white colar audience in a daze. Damage control was swift of the part of the killa's team as a press release was issued this afternoon it goes as follows:

"After nearly 20 years at the top of the Jamaican music industry I have been involved in many battles - sometimes with fellow artists, sometimes with outside forces and sometimes with the state and its politicians. I've learnt to choose my battles wisely and the grounds upon which to fight them.
I've also learnt when to admit I didn't choose my ground wisely and Saturday night's Shaggy & Friends' show was one of those occasions.
With so many politicians and members of the upper echelons of corporate Jamaica present, an audience I rarely get the ears of, I got caught up in the moment while expressing myself. I now realise it was inappropriate and extend my apologies to Shaggy, his sponsors, benefactors and all in attendance who were offended by my performance.
Alliance made a pledge to donate $250,000 to the cause and we will follow through on that promise and continue to support Shaggy and answer his call whenever he reaches out."
