The Queen of Dancehall Spice celebrated her hypnotic new single, Go Down Deh featuring Reggae/Dancehall legends Sean Paul and Shaggy, with an epic Egyptian themed release party.

The song, produced by Grammy Award nominee, Costi Ionita and Shaggy and written by Spice, Sean Paul, Shaggy, Costi and Shane Hoosong, made its debut at No. 1 on US and Israeli iTunes Reggae charts.  The music video  — directed by Jay Will  — is currently No. 1 YouTube trending in Jamaica while also sitting atop Tidal Reggae and Dancehall Video hits.

According to a release from Spice’s team, “Last Friday, the night and ambiance was set for a queen with Egyptian themed décor around the room of the Cosmopolitan Premier Lounge in Decatur, Georgia.”  VH1’s Love & Hip-Hop cameras rolled as cast members Rasheeda, Safaree Samuels, Yandy Smith-Harris, Karlie Redd, Sierra Gates, and Jasmine Ellis, among others walked the red carpet to the Queen of Dancehall’s single release party.

When Spice arrived, fans became increasingly ecstatic as she walked the red carpet in her pink floor-length pink braids and a Versace jumpsuit.  Reggae/dancehall icon, Shaggy surprised fans and came on the carpet with a boombox backpack blasting their new single, Go Down Deh.

Spice dramatically entered the room with four muscled-oiled up men carrying her like the Queen that she is onto the stage. More than 20 dancers dressed in all gold with Cleopatra styled wigs lined up around the stage for a captivating performance that also featured the one and only, Shaggy.

On Instagram today, Spice wrote, “Special thanks to these men who lifted me at 180 pounds and the bed at 50 pounds 😩🥴💙 Big up my girls y’all did exception well #TeamspiceAtlanta @queenbuttah”

Both Shaggy and Spice danced and whined on the carpet, the release said. “Spice expressed her gratitude to Shaggy for executive producing her forthcoming album that is set to release on Friday, July 30, 2021.”

“The Queen started a whine competition as fans gathered around the stage to see exactly who could indeed, “go down deh.”  Fans got on stage and expressed their love for her, and one fan even revealed that she ‘drove 6 hours to see her.’ “

After the fan finished her “Go down deh” whine, Spice offered her a spot on her dance team! Love & Hip Hop Atlanta cast member, Safaree, also joined Spice on stage along with a number of fans to dance.

Safaree told the crowd he was the other “S” because Sean Paul couldn’t attend, and the night was dubbed as “Spice, Shaggy and Safaree.”

The release added, “Karlie Redd’s daughter, Jasmine Ellis, and Yandy Smith Harris also joined Spice on stage to render a “cute” whine to show their excitement and support.”

“As the night wrapped, Spice expressed her gratitude to the entire room, revealing to the crowd that because of all of their support the new album will be titled, “Ten” to commemorate the 10 years she’s been in the industry.’ Spice also spoke about her humble beginnings that included her struggles with homelessness. The event was an unforgettable experience that brought the dynamics of Love & Hip Hop, and Dancehall together, all while revealing the humble heart of an amazing entertainer, performer, mogul, and mother–Spice.”
