Spice: "I'm Not Watering Down My Culture for Anybody" | Funky Friday

Spice joins Cam Newton on Funky Friday for a conversation about colorism, Caribbean culture, fame, relationships, and her journey from humble beginnings in Jamaica to becoming the Queen of Dancehall. She opens up about losing her father at a young age, the challenges dark-skinned women face in the entertainment industry, and why she refuses to compromise her identity for mainstream success. Spice also shares untold stories about Dancehall's influence on Hip-Hop, reuniting with Vybz Kartel after his release, navigating global fame, and building an independent music empire.
