Merciless is not in Ninja Man's league is what the original 'Don Gorgon' is saying days after the clash between the two artistes did not materialise at Jamworld, Portmore, at Sting 2008.
When Merciless cried out about the battlefield being empty last Friday, patrons were left wondering what happened to his contender Ninja Man. An absent Ninja Man was not even in the venue when Merciless performed in the early hours of Saturday morning.
When the STAR spoke with Ninja Man yesterday, he said he had no intentions of clashing with Merciless whom he says he has killed and buried.
We a nuh size
"Me and Merciless a nuh size. Yuh see me mi like to see when artistes put themselves somewhere in life. Every year mi clash someone, is someone wid a name," Ninja said.
Ninja Man and Merciless have exchanged lyrical swords at Sting in 2000 when according to Ninja, Merciless had slain him and took away his title. However, the year later Bounty and Beenie Man took on Merciless in a gruesome lyrical slaughter.
According to Ninja Man, whenever he has warred and defeated an artiste, the artiste usually rises to higher heights, except for Merciless.
"When yuh kill Ninja, you win 14 parishes in Jamaica caw people love Ninja Man. I kill people and dem do good. Look at Shabba, Super Cat, Cobra, Merciless come tek my title and do nuting wid it. Mi come back and kill Merciless wid one tune and show seh me a di Don. Mi nah war wid Merciless again, him need to go do some tune ... . Once yuh nuh hear from an artiste for more than five year, dem a Heineken Star time artiste, and mi nuh hear from Merciless in eight years."
Ninja said that he asked Sting Director Isaiah Laing to organise a clash with Bounty Killer, Beenie Man and Vybz Kartel all onstage but his request was denied.
Ninja said, "I don't waan war wid someone mi kill already. I waan test myself and my title, I need to see how good I am in the business. Mi need someone who will gimme competition. Afta mi a nuh cruff, so no gimme foolishness, gimme someone who will pressure me so mi can prove mi greatness, not someone mi kill every day. Merciless need fi go build back him career."
Run dem run
However, Merciless felt that Ninja Man ran away from the war. "Run dem run afta dem a talk up dem mouth on air but dem only bad inna the media," Merciless said.
"Dis war nuh done, anywhere mi buk him a war."
For Merciless the clashing isn't over as he has his eyes set on Ninja and Cobra. For 2009, Merciless is also looking to release his next studio album.
