Lt. Stitchie has had a successful year. In 2017 alone, he’s performed in several countries on different continents, doing both secular and gospel events, while maintaining his integrity and beliefs. Some of the territories that he worked in the last twelve months, include: Trinidad & Tobago, Colombia, Nigeria, Guyana, Canada, Grand Cayman, and that is just to name a few.

In addition to traveling and doing live shows, Lt. Stitchie has committed a lot of time to working on his album, a project which will be released in early 2018. The album has collaborations with some of reggae and dancehall’s most respected artists: Agent Sasco aka Assassin, Fantan Mojah, Million Stylez, Lukie D and Ricky Stereo.

Not known to be one to slow down, The Governor (as he is affectionately called) has also enjoyed some special features this year. One of which was a BBC Radio 1 Xtra centered on reggae legends. He was joined by King Jammy, Josey Wales and Beenie Man for this presentation. Another high point in 2017 was having a well-known Nigerian gospel singer, Mbomboyo, remake “Jehovah,” which was originally written, performed and released by Lt. Stitchie.

As 2017 comes to an end, Lt. Stitchie is now shooting videos for a few of his songs while simultaneously preparing for his album release. For more information on working with this artist, please send an email to info@mjent.net or call / text / whatsapp: 876.313.6319

On December 2nd, Guyana’s reggae gospel artist Samuel Medas had an album launch for his latest musical collection, Royalty. He invited several artists – all of the same genres – to share the stage with him. Among them was Jamaica’s legendary recording artist, Lt. Stitchie.

The Governor, as he is affectionately called, left Guyana wanting more. He captivated the audience with his unique delivery, lyrical depth and passionate performance. Patrons hung on his every word as he performed songs like “man a pastor,” “thank you” and so much more. The tone was set from as early as band rehearsal, where Lt. Stitchie ran through his set as if it was the actual show.

The Guyanese massive could not get enough! As such, Lt. Stitchie will be returning to Guyana next year for a follow up performance. The date and location will be shared shortly.

VP Records is excited to announce the launch of an exclusive mix show about reggae and dancehall culture titled “Studio 17.” Featuring popular DJ’s Silent Addy & Yaadcore as hosts, the show will offer a platform for fans to discover and vibe to the latest & hottest music in the culture.
