DISTRICT OF MAN (DOM)
by Rupture
i found this list on the internet.
Top 10 artistes who walk with a “District of Man”
it’s the Top 10 artistes who walk with a “District of Man” (DOM). What is a DOM? DOM just means an entourage comprised of many men. Here’s Chat’s top 10:
- Capleton - they say the Fyah Man carries a whole parish full of Bobo Shantis wherever he performs. Some wave flags, some stand around, presumably as bodyguards
- Bounty Killer - the Poor People’s Governor probably has the most homophobic lyrics, but he’s always surrounded by a “sea of man” wherever he goes
- Sizzla - wherever he is, it seems the entire Judgment Yard - his soldiers - are there with him. Just ask Norris Man who felt their wrath last year at Capleton’s show after he said something about Sizzla’s mother.
- Vybz Kartel - “Addi the Daddy” is always surrounded by many “sons” from the Portmore Empire and outside
- Mavado - The Gully God’s army of “Cubans” from Cassava Piece ensure that he’s protected wherever he goes
- Turbulance - as with Capleton, always surrounded by many Bobos
- Sanchez - the only singer on the list
- Junior Gong
- Fantan Mojah - another bobo DOM
- Junior Reid - yet another bobo DOM

LOL - funny list. I remember Capleton getting a lot of stick a while back cos some of his entourage fan him when he sits on his throne. His entourage were responsible for beating up Beenie Man a few years back as well, which Beenie references in Frame I&I on the Jonkanoo riddim if i remember rightly. Silly business.
