As the Dancehall year 2002 comes to an
end, it's time to smoke also the last Germaican Records 'joint'
for the season.
As the name already indicates, this one should be a "Cure"
for all the fans looking for innovation and creativity in
Dancehall. Positive, clean, musical and optimistic, Germany's
No.1 in Dancehall is representing the Jamaican street culture
straight and real!
