Gyptian taken in for questioning

Gyptian

Gyptian and prominent Dancehall producer, Kimani “DJ Frass” Palmer have turned themselves into the Jamaican authorities; facing questioning regarding a fatal shooting that occurred on Monday September 12.

The shooting took place at the recording studio of well-renowned Dancehall producer, Steven “Supa Hype” Davis in Jamaica.

Reportedly, the shooting happened  as a result of an argument between  Gyptian and DJ Frass; a dispute over a track that Gyptian voiced on Frass’ Riddim.

The dispute became increasingly intense; prompting Frass to leave the studio and return moments later, accompanied by several men. Allegedly, Frass and the men proceeded  to drape Gyptian and grab him by the waist and one of the men appeared to be reaching for his waist to draw a weapon. When that took place, a group of armed men then entered the recording studio; opening fire and hitting a 27 year old man multiple times.

The armed men who opened fire escaped in a white Honda motor car following the shooting. The victim, Davion “Burro” Bailey was taken to the Kingston Public Hospital with multiple  gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead on arrival.

DJ Frass was taken in for questioning regarding the incident on Tuesday night while Gyptian turned himself in Wednesday morning.

Frass is known for several hit Riddims including the Shadow Riddim, Israel Riddim and Hot Patty Riddim while Gyptian is recognized for several, highly acclaimed singles such as “Hold Yuh,” “Beautiful Lady,” “Serious Times,” and “Mama Don’t Cry.”
