JAMAICAN dancehall star Masicka will arrive in Guyana tonight for his ‘They Don’t Know My Story’ concert at the National Park tomorrow, compliments of Lion Heart Entertainment, Guinness and Kings of Kings Records and Productions.
Born Javaun Fearon, the 26-year-old has been creating waves in the dancehall genre with his several chart-topping hits and tomorrow’s show will mark his first performance in Guyana; something he said he’s looking forward to, given that his music is very popular here, especially amongst Guyanese youths.
Fearon and his ‘Genahsyde’ crew have so far developed a cult-like movement in the Caribbean, with thousands turning out to his shows and lately. The Portmore, Jamaica-born-and-raised entertainer, has become a regular feature in North America and Europe.
The ‘Top Form’ singer will share the stage with world-rated and sound clash champions Bass Odyssey, several local Deejays, along with Kellz from Tobago and Sky Kidd from Antigua who will also be performing also for the first time in Guyana.
The Marriott Hotel, Digicel, White Castle Fish Shop and Chelsea’s Restaurant are listed as some of the sponsors for the show which carries a gate entry price of $3,000 per ticket, while VIP tickets are being sold for $8,000. Early birds tickets will be sold for $2,000 and are available at White Castle Fish Shop, Clairan’s Boutique and Chelsea Suits.
Masicka is considered as the leader of the ‘new school’ in Dancehall music and since his entry to the industry as a teenager, the artiste has slowly been making a name for himself.
In recent years, songs like ‘Top Striker’ and ‘Knock It’, allowed Masicka to show his ability to tell vivid stories of the streets and his rise to the top. Coupled with his undeniably versatile melodic sensibility and punch-to-the-gut delivery, Masicka has made it clear that he is a musical force to be reckoned with, in Jamaica and beyond.
With a barrage of hit music, Masicka said Guyanese will be in for a treat, as he encouraged everyone to grab their tickets early and prepare for an unforgettable night at the National Park.
