Dutty Wine

Dancehall is all about the dance, and many songs have dance moves that accompany them. There are always new moves sweeping through, but the classics are never forgotten. Moves are often quite basic but dancers add their own flavour and embellishments.

Dutty wine is probably one of the better known dance moves, at least by name. When Tony Matterhorn's tune was released in July 2006, a Kingston newspaper - The Jamaica Star, published articles warning of the 'Dutty Wine Danger'. Check the many incarnations in this video and you'll understand why.
