Dancehall Soul singer/songwriter Cherine Anderson walked away with the award for Best Female Vocalist at the 2008 Caribbean Urban Music Awards held on Saturday, April 26 at Sugarmans Beach in Jamaica.
Anderson, who was up against Tami Chynn, Lady Saw, Macka Diamond and Queen Ifrica for Best Female Artist, was also nominated in the category of Best Newcomer. The striking 5 foot 3 soulstress gave a powerful performance of her prolific hit "Kingston State of Mind" and was asked by the appreciative crowd to "sing some more, another song, sing anything". Totally impromptu, Anderson then asked the host of the show, Spragga Benz, if he would join her on her hit collaboration "Coming Over", a duet she originally recorded with Chuck Fender. The two stars unleashed what could easily be considered the performance highlight of the night, both singing and then free styling DJ lines to the loud applause from the crowd causing them to 'pull up' the song from the beginning.
