Skillibeng is alive and well: Artiste responds to bike accident rumours
Eastsyde deejay Skillibeng is alive and well
despite rumours that circulated last night that he was injured in a bike
accident.
The 50
Bag entertainer took to InstagramLive (a rare occurrence) to addressthe malicious viral video.
“Whosoever send round dah video deh, go
s*** yuh muma – di fuss smaddy weh send out dah video deh cause unno nuh know
if a me and unno a talk bout a me,” he said.
He added, “The pu**y dem waan me dead
enuh.”
Skillibeng, whose given name is Emwah Warmington Jnr, is a known bike fanatic, and even has a series of Instagram highlights of his bike ventures.

More than 10,000 people tuned in as he spoke
and smoked, with many breathing virtual sighs of relief that the claims were
false.
In the video, a man is seen riding a bike at
night, sporting a knapsack. He then assumes the wheelie position which is
short-lived as his body is then thrusted upwards and violently thrown off the
bike.
A woman, who seemed to be the one recording
the video, is heard screaming as she runs to the motionless body, and others
gather around in an attempt to help. The man’s face is hardly shown because of
the rapid movement and emotions on the scene, then the video cuts.
Blog sites have since confirmed that the video
is old and the man has recovered. That hasn’t stopped Eastsyde fans from
denouncing the person who started the rumours.
“If dem nuh talk bout Skilli dem
mad,” one person wrote in reference to Skillibeng’s song Hot.
“Kindly a ask unuh fi nuh call down nuh
destruction pan the man.”
“Di smaddi deven look like Skilli. Unu
weird yf.”
“Wonder if Skilli a go sing bout dah
crash yah.”
“Leggo mi man shut. Tell Mr Death seh Sir
Warmington nuh ready.”
