Another on in the series of non-Lee Perry related production, this one was produced by Bunny Lee.

The feud began with the success of I-Roy's "Straight to Jazzbo Head", a number that good-naturedly taunted the Prince Jazzbo's lack of prowess at the mic. In a way Jazzbo had it coming, as he'd choked in the studio in I-Roy's presence, and inevitably, when the latter DJ stepped up the mic, he couldn't help but comment on that fact.
When I-Roy's single took off, producer Bunny Lee, who'd overseen that hit, immediately goaded Jazzbo into striking back on wax, with "Straight to I-Roy's Head" the result. Jazzbo had taken to heart I-Roy's congenial teasing, and his hurt and confusion is apparent here. "Prince Jazzbo never trouble you," he laments within, "you shouldn't do that." What fans wanted though, were insults, but the best the DJ can do is compare I-Roy unfavorably to the mighty U-Roy.
Still, Jamaicans love a feud, and Jazzbo's whinges over a steamy version of John Holt's "A Love I Can Feel" sold well enough for the pair's fracas on disc to continued, with I-Roy hitting back with the quite nasty "Jazzbo a fe Run", and Jazzbo slapping back in turn.
