Spice – Claps Back At Her Dancers Over Poor Pay Accusations

No Comments News

There’s trouble in Team Spice as the Dancehall artist clapped back at accusations of poor pay from her dancers.

Dancers TC, Rebel, and Pretty Pretty were drawn into posting a series of individual Instagram Live, after a friend of Spice – Ritchie Feelings – accused the trio of being disloyal and opportunists.

Richie Feelings also advised the ‘So Mi Like It’ hitmaker not to take the women on her North American bookings and claimed the dance outfit had been dissolved after not defending Spice in a feud between herself and spiritual advisor, Nardo ‘RT Boss’ Smith.

In an Instagram live TC accused her Boss Spice of not coming to the dancer’s defence saying: “Mi nuh do nutten at all. Everything happen, all now Spice don’t tek up her phone and seh as a boss, ‘mek she talk’… A suh Spice stay; she prefer cut yuh off and nuh know and inna di long run she hear seh a so it did go”

She also recalled a time where she only got paid JMD$2000 but defended her loyalty by saying she felt “grateful” for the opportunity to travel the world with the star.

Dancing Rebel and Pretty Pretty echoed the same sentiment in their lives, with Rebel also adding that they all used to complain about their pay.

Clapping back at the ladies accusations, Spice started her own live session stating that the dancers only responded to Richie Feelings because the comments were about them as opposed to responding to previous comments made about her.

She said: “You know why unno go live? Cause Richie Feelings seh something weh hurt unno and a unno alone have feelings but other things was said about me as unno boss and it never hurt unno, nobody nuh go Live.”

She also responded to the accusations of pay adding: “I pay unno JMD$15,000 each week,” she said. “When unno deh a Jamaica each of unno get $3000 per night. People a work one week inna Jamaica and a $7000-8000 dem a get fi di week…and mi pay unno driver, mi buy unno liquor, mi buy unno clothes.

“Fi keep Team Spice pon di road every week it cost me over a JMD$100,000 and fi di four week when unno deh pon it, it cost me half a million dollars, and dat a just unno pay alone. When unno leave from Jamaica a US$700 unno get…but unno nah talk. When unno go a England is US$1000 mi pay unno.”

The saga continues…
