Aiko Pon Di Beat & Vybz Kartel Muzik present a new sensational song from incarcerated Dancehall King Vybz Kartel, titled “Temptation” featuring Roxxie, Yowlevite.
If, based on the title, you are assuming that ‘Temptation’ is another x-rated Kartel‘s song, you are assuming wrong. Vybz Kartel, the lyrical genius, the dancehall hero, the incarcerated superstar, dropped a new song that is a dialogue with the devil, and Vybz Kartel refuses to cut a deal with him.
The devil promises Kartel a lot of success and money in exchange of his soul, but Vybz Kartel refuses and explains why. Dancehall rhymes with deep bright lyrics and the tune is almost a gospel when Addi’s deejays
“Our Father who heart in Heaven Hollow be thy name on Heaven and Earth same way And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil For thine is the kingdom The power and the glory”
Light prevails over darkness. This is a song full or reasoning and symbolism from one of the greatest dancehall reggae deejay of our time. And is also a way for Vybz Kartel to say he refused a deal with the devil, with Babylon, with the system.
Once again Vybz Kartel shows all his lyrical power, his focus, his laser shaped reasoning paired with a classicKartel’s delivery.

Vybz Kartel “Temptation” Lyrics
(feat. Roxxie & YowLevite)
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights He was after an hungered and when the tempter came to him he said “If thou be the son of God command that these stones be made bread” But he answered and said, “It is written, man shall not live by bread alone But by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God”
