"Ladies in the DJ business need some more respect. I guess because we are women, producers sometimes want to exploit us. Ladies also need to take the busines more seriously," Janice Fyffe aka Lady G impassionately stated as she repped about the struggles that face female entertainers in their quest to break into the male dominated DJ world.

"Luckily for me, I was always fortunate to meet people who genuinely wanted to help me... I didn't have to deal with the sexual harassment that sometimes face female artists waiting to get a break."

Lady G has been deejaying for the past thirteen years. It was in her final year at Dunoon Technical that she decided to go full scale into the music busines. A determined Lady G decided that music would either make or break her. She took this decision because her teachers were tired of having her attending school late and then, adding insult to injury, she often fell asleep in their classes.

As one of her former teachers said, "she would curl up at her desk and sleep as her tired eyes succumbed to the pressures of the classroom. The other students sympathised with her because they knew the responsibilities." At this time Janice use to DJ with the set Black Scorpio and this activity often took her into the wee hours of the morning.

I had to DJ at nights so as to take some of the burdens off my mother. My principal was not very sympathetic, he sent for my mother and told her I was always late for classes too often for his liking. The decison was that she would have to do her GCE exams at another school," Lady G said. It was then she drew caution to the winds and embraced the music for better or for worse.

She was soon discovered by Denzil "Sassafras" Naar, a well know booking agent who recognised the tremendous talent she possessed, and gave her the name Lady G.

Lady G took Jamaica by storm with her single with her single which was done in combination with Papa San (Round Table Talk). This song was on everbody's lips as the heated 'quarrel' between the two had everybody's attention. The video won several awards for the best video. Since then Lady G has not looked back. She followed up with "Rock Back," "Is It Me Or The Gun," and more recently "One Man Alone." Lady G said her message filled songs were aimed at women, who at the time were the prime target for DJs who revelled in saying derogatory things about them.

She gave women a sense of purpose by recording songs such as "Nuff Respect," which became an anthem for women, especially within the dancehall fraternity. What made Lady G so popular among women is that she is able to analise situations and in doing so she related to Jamaican women with what was then a solid social commentary that had everyone jumping.

The mother of two, (a daughter and a son) took a break from the music scene to spend time with her children. She left at a time when the dancehall was really getting hot. Several new female entertainers had come on the scene, but this did not phase the confident Lady G. She bounced back as if she had never been away.

She made her comeback at Fort Clarence Beach, January 1, 1994 at Fresh. She had the attention of over 4,000 people whom she had rocking with fresh tunes. She was awadred Best Female DJ by the Jamaica Music Industry (JAMI) and has performed on shows like ; Bob Marley Birthday Bash 95' (Los Angeles and California), Sunsplash, White River Reggae Bash, Sting, and the Caribbean Music Fest in Nassau.

Lady G's ultimate goal right now is to own a music studio, where she can produce other artists and give them the break they so badly need. For the female DJ, it's a long uphill battle as she has to play the role of mother and father of her two children.
