Toots Hibbert‘s burial, which was to take place yesterday at the Dovecot Memorial Gardens in Spanish Town (Jamaica), had to be abandoned as nobody in the family had the burial order in their possession. The laws in Jamaica states that the body cannot be placed in the grave without the burial order.

Hawaiian reggae group The Lambsbread and Jamaican reggae legend Mykal Rose have joined forces on an anthem of freedom and justice, which comes by the way of a new single called “Nah stop Chant.”
The track is produced by Jubba White, of Whitestone productions, who is also credited for working on Burning Spear’s 2003 Grammy nominated album “Freeman” and the iconic “I Swear Riddim” that gave us hits like “Good Morning Jah Jah” from Jah Cure, “Marijuana Pon Di Corner” from Richie Spice and “Only For You” from Sizzla Kalonji.
A couple days ago reggae artist Daman, who is based in France, released the second single from his upcoming album. The track is titled “Hurt” and it features Jamaican roots reggae artist Max Romeo.
