LADY Saw and reggae crooner Beres Hammond sizzled on the Sumfest stage last Friday as they delivered an emotionally charged performance of She Has Changed, a tune penned by Lady Saw.
There was no missing the deep emotions expressed as the two put their all in bringing the words of the song to life. At the end the two received loud cheers from the crowd who knew they had witnessed something special.
In a follow-up interview about the song, Lady Saw said she was inspired to write the song through a personal experience she had.
“I wrote it because of certain little girl from the country,” she said, adding that she literally watched a sweet girl transform into an uncontrollable teenager who just wanted to roam the streets and visit massage parlours.

2 charged in prostitution sting
A check of Buffalo Grove massage parlors led to the arrest of two women who propositioned undercover officers, police said Wednesday.
Myeong Hi Lim, 64, of the 2600 block of South Cedar Glen Drive, Arlington Heights, was charged with prostitution July 13 at Sun Spa, 1359 W. Dundee Road.
Solongomaa Tserendori, 42, of the 1400 block of Carol Street, Park Ridge, was also charged with prostitution July 20 at GQ Spa, 1105 Weiland Road.
Police perform periodic checks on the massage parlors in town. Cmdr. Jim Newton estimates there are less than 10 parlors in town.
He said the two arrests were unusual.
“We haven’t had any problems in a while,” he said. “We try to do these on a regular basis. To get two within a week is a little unlikely, but that’s what happened.”

Mayor George Pradel, who approved the restaurant’s liquor license late last year, said Show-Me’s has been a good neighbor since opening in February.
“Incidentally, they have pretty girls there, but (the business) is there to sell food and give entertainment,” Pradel said. He added: “Everyone does like to be served by someone who is pleasant and pretty.”
Show-Me’s customer Bryan Polanek, 36, of Downers Grove, said he doesn’t have a problem with the concept.
“There aren’t any poles. I haven’t seen any dances. I haven’t seen them do anything too embarrassing,” he said during lunch hour Tuesday.
Other suburbs, such as Glenview and Elk Grove Village, have struggled with laws regulating massage parlors, as officials attempt to weed out disreputable businesses linked to prostitution while allowing for legitimate therapeutic services.
