Lady Saw is labeled as the Queen of Dancehall and the first female deejay to win a Grammy. She is known for her vivid sex lyrics and lewd stage shows. But in 2011 her softer alter ego Marion Hall will make her first appearance. United Reggae got a chat with this outspoken female artist from an airport in Los Angeles.
Lady Saw, born Marion Hall, took her stage name from the late singer Tenor Saw when she started her career on local Jamaican sound systems only 15 years old. Her talent was recognized and in 1994 VP Records put out her debut album 'Lover Girl'.
Since then she has been both criticized and praised for her outspoken and often x-rated lyrics. Some call it girl power, while other labels it as slackness. Song titles such as Pretty Pussy, Best Pum Pum and Tighta are however just as explicit as their titles indicate.
“I started out with clean lyrics but didn’t get any attention. The guys already did it [slackness] so I tried it and it worked,” says Lady Saw on the phone from an airport in Los Angeles, and continues:
“I’m a sexual person. It’s about who I am. To love yourself and to educate females.”

Lady Saw has forged a career in the male-dominated world of Jamaican dancehall reggae. Her style of deejaying rivals that of the most lewd and crude of her male contemporaries. But Lady Saw is out there to prove more than that she can deejay with the best (or worst) of them; she's out to prove that she's a well-rounded singer and performer and a politically conscious person as well. She has been a consistent female presence in the dancehall scene, where other women have failed, for a decade. Her popularity in the reggae scene has helped her gain notoriety with American rap and pop stars such as Eve, L'il Kim, and Foxy Brown. In 2002 she expanded her audience when the ska/punk band No Doubt featured her on their popular hit "Underneath It All." The St. Lucia Mirror described her as "a consummate and energetic performer who feeds off her audience every single time."
Born Marion Hall around 1971, in Galina, St. Mary, Jamaica, she was the middle child of nine children. Her father was a fisherman and a farmer. Her mother was
