Word pon de street is dat de real decision-makers hiding in de shadows, pulling de strings like dem is puppeteers.

Look, de same way dem threatening companies fuh playing smart, maybe dem should check demselves first. You ever notice how some of dem high officials always looking confused when things go wrong? Is like dem only find out ’bout de decisions after de media break de news. Dem boys seh is high time we start asking who really calling de shots.

You hear ’bout dat big contract gone to somebody? And who sign off on dat deal? Not de man in de big seat, but de one behind de curtain, whispering sweet nothings in his ear.
