This is ridiculous! First Bogle now Ice, two dancers from the same crew killed in a time span of three years. Bogle is the father of dancehall, every dance that you see now is a derivative of something that Bogle was doing before his untimely demise. There are only two major dancers left from that era of dancers: Ding Dong and Jon Hype. If they meet with an unfortunate situation as well then the future of dance looks bleak. The reason that dancing became so big in Jamaica and Bogle declared legendary is because he provided a peaceful alternative to violence. Bogle understood that times were hard and situations tense in Jamaica so he preached that the people should come to the parties and dance out their problems. That idea was later re-instated through the phrase "Gal over Gun". It was a movement about the preservation of life and having a good time with some good people and beautiful women. Rather than fight with rival crews you could just take it to the club and dance it out; your signature dances verses theirs. These dancers knew the power that they possessed as far as their influence on the people of Jamaica and abroad, having taken their dances and culture worldwide. It's just a shame that the violence of the island has spread to them.
Ice you will truly be missed.
