The one-night dancehall show Sting is a seething cauldron where audience and stage have combined to swallow up the uninitiated and hesitant act and basically boil them alive, never to be heard form again.

This year, three interesting musical personalities are among those seeking to stand the heat at Portmore's Jamworld beginning Boxing day (or night, really) December 26.

Dj Sky (left in both photos), who hails form a musical family will be working in tandem with DJ Fyahstarter (right, above pic), who has built up a commanding reputation through stints with Brand New machine and elsewhere. The will be presenting a hybrid dubbed "electro-dancehall" or EDH,

As Fyahstarter puts it: '"basically, its  the dancehall and dub that people would already be familiar with, presented in a new way."

Also looking to test the waters is Grenadian ingenue Zhavera, who has stepped into the pop-dancehall arena courtesy of a collab with Beenie Man, "Gimme That Lovin'" The Los Angeles-based popster is working against trend in that market as pop circles and playlists are not exactly hot on the Jamaican sound at the moment, but she figures she has the goods to break that ice.
