Every year we get a slew of christmas bashment, and Vybz & Sheba have been quick off the mark this year, their song ‘Like Christmas’ has even got its own video already. The gist is when they touch each other, they feel like Christmas (what, drunk and full of Cadbury’s selection box?). 3 things to watch for in this Gaza Christmas vid: 1) Vybz dressed in an elf hat (and the whole of the Portmore empire in santa hats) 2) Vybz’s reflection in a bauble 3) The incredible snowy backdrop in the last minute of the song. Don’t forget to pay attention to the lyrics too, especially when Kartel says: ‘Me never inna nuttin wid ya aunty’, and Sheba: ‘Me believe you me dear, cos she ugly’. Happy Christmas aunty!!
