TNT Ready For The World

Late last year renowned dancehall production unit Ward 21 unveiled a concept riddim called Dem Gal Sit'n, featuring an all-girl lineup ranging from brand new talent to veteran deejays. Just when the music started to bubble in Jamaica, Ward 21 departed on tour. The three youngest artistes Timberlee, Natalie Storm and Tifa took to promoting themselves with ferocity, becoming unstoppable ambassadors of gal-power in Kingston.

Living out of Timberlee's car and repping their shocking green "Dem Gal" tees at every opportunity, they became fast friends. "We didn't sleep," says Tifa. "We didn't do anything at all but promote, can I tell you, we had one shirt." Finishing her friend's sentence, Natalie adds, "We had to wear it for interview, wash it in the day and wear it in the night. Then like 4am, wash it again!" Though at first not a formal group, the three women have begun voicing collectively as TNT.

The second all female riddim, the Estrogen riddim came and it pushed the girl's career even further. With Timberlee's Wretchinel, Natalie Storm's Gal Fi Get Boo, and Tifa's Bottom of Di Barrel. All three girls entered the dancehall charts and kept climbing. Currently Tifa is on her first major tour in Europe and the she has been well received by her audience.
