Former manager of dancehall artiste Stonebwoy, has been spotted in Jamaica lending his support to Shatta Wale ahead of his performance at Vybz Kartel’s highly-anticipated Freedom Street concert.
Videos of Blakk Cedi’s meeting with Shatta Wale have gone viral, igniting excitement and debates on social media.
Fans and industry watchers have interpreted this gesture as a strong show of solidarity for Shatta Wale, the only Ghanaian artist invited to perform at the event.
The development comes shortly after Stonebwoy’s controversial remarks, where he downplayed Shatta Wale’s participation in the Freedom Street concert.
In an interview, Stonebwoy suggested that Shatta Wale’s presence at the event was merely as a curtain-raiser, claiming he himself would not resort to ‘famzing’ international artists to score cheap points.
But his former manager’s presence in Jamaica tells a different story.
The Freedom Street concert marks a significant moment in Jamaican music history as one of the flagship concerts.
The event had been on hiatus following the incarceration of its founder, Vybz Kartel, who has since regained his freedom.
To make a comeback, Vybz has assembled a diverse lineup of artists from across Africa and the Caribbean.
