Brick & Lace lands silver in UK

TWENTY-TWO years ago, when they recorded the song Love is Wicked, the members of the sister duo Brick & Lace knew they had a hit on their hands.

Last Friday the song, which blew up on social media platform over the past year thanks to a dance challenge, was certified silver in the United Kingdom by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales and streaming equivalent of 200,000 units.

Love is Wicked is included on the duo’s album of the same name, which was released in 2007 via Geffen Records/180 Entertainment/Kon Live. Nailah “Nyla” Thorbourne of Brick & Lace was unaware of the song’s latest achievement when the Jamaica Observer contacted her on the weekend.
