Congradulations to 2007 Midwest Dancehall Queen - Skittles!

As much as we like to be everywhere, with so many blazin’ events this summer, it is close to impossible. Chat ‘Bout Cleveland supporter, Destiny, gave us the scoop on the 3rd Annual Midwest Reggae Dancehall Queen Competition that went down July 7th……

Congratulations to Dancehall newcomer, Skittles. (above with 2006 DHQ Pochahantas). Second AND third place went a few DHQ’s from St. Louis (who knew?)

As a guest judge, Destiny received the red carpet treatment as she made her stunning appearance in a limo with the Nocturnal Crew from Detroit and Canada’s Dancehall Queen and Dutty Wine Champ, Simone.

The sound for the evening, Killa Face, gave Destiny as well as other dancehall celebrities in the house; including Chicago’s own Candi, Montana (chicagoreggae.com), and Midwest Dancehall Queen 2006 Pocahontas much respect as he played the latest dancehall tunes mixed in with his custom dubs specially selected for the evening.

The event was pure craziness from the beginning with a mix of dancehall vixens from Cleveland, Detroit (Blackberry and Empress), Canada and of course Chicago. The place was so jammed packed; immediate plans are in the works for a new venue for NEXT year’s competition (Cleveland, perhaps?).

Sounds like a great a event that I hope will continue year after year. To hold you until next year’s competition, here are a few pics sent us…
