Now I personally do not know what fascinates DJs about the matey anthem but it has made them popular and wealthy. Strangely enough women have been the main supporters of these matey tunes. When Reggie Stepper came out with Wife it was the dancehall anthem for the girls. Even today when Mad Cobra s Matey plays, expect the girls in the dance to go wild. The matey has been blamed for everything from the unexpected death of a boyfriend to sleeping with three generation of men.
Woe be unto the matey.
The matey concept has transcended from just being the other woman it has now become the description of a everything that can be negative a about a female. She is uneducated and performs poorly in bed. Woe be unto the matey. The matey has a matey mentality where she is satisfied with being the other women and does not want to strife for more she deems it as a challenge to try and take somebody s man. Even though women hate the idea of being called mates or maties there are some out there.
