A few hours ago (on November 6th) Busy Signal uploaded an approximately nine-minute long video done as a short film for his new song, “Seen It Before.” The track, which is on the VP Records label, is about the increasing number of youths that are joining gangs and living a life of crime and violence.
The extended visuals tell the story of a gang member who eventually loses his life in the streets, even after trying to change it by going to church. Click here or on the image above to watch the video and remember to like, comment and share.

After some hiccups and set backs, one of reggae’s most celebrated voice, Toots Hibbert, will officially be laid to rest on Sunday, November 15th, at National Heroes Park in Kingston, Jamaica.

Earlier in the year before we had a global pandemic, Maria Jackson Magazine reported that Jamaica’s first reggae music festival, ‘Reggae Sunsplash,’ would be returning in 2020. However, with covid19 either slowing down or in most cases putting an end to large gatherings, we assumed that they would postpone the event until 2021. That is not the case!
We are now learning that the show will take place, virtually, on November 27th and 28th. The organizers have not yet announced the lineup but they have said that they will be doing so in a few days.
On Saturday, November 7th, Styles P – 1/3 of The Lox – will perform live in a virtual up-close and personal set, which is being presented by Sessions. This is a one time no replay, no rewind, no repeat concert that’s schedule to begin at 5:00 PM PT.
