Echo Minott asks ‘What the Hell the Police Can Do?’

With a consistently high murder rate, guns coming in from Haiti on fast boats and a surprise police commissioner resignation, many a law-abiding Jamaican citizen may jut be asking, ‘What the hell the police can do?’

Doubtless many were asking the same thing in 1986. Then, though, it wasn’t only matters of murder and gun-running on their minds, but a wry take on domestic abuse. They had a hot new song on their lips, which they made the number-one song on the RJR charts for the year and number-two on JBC, and they have continued to chant along with Echo Minott, asking “What the hell the police can do?”
