Popular Jamaican radio personality Disc-Jock Redeem, who can be heard on Roots 96.1 FM, will launch his new event – Urban Xpression – this Thursday, April 14th. Urban Xpression is a weekly (every Thursday) urban affair that is being done in collaboration with the venue: Luxury Lounge (formerly Oneil’s Place), located at 33 Hagley Park Road in Kingston, Jamaica.

Every week there will be live performances from both emerging and established artists, followed by a retro party with selectors DJ Stanhype and Disc-Jock Redeem. The entire show will stream live on Disc-Jock Redeem‘s official Facebook page, but persons are encouraged to attend in-person as there is no cover charge.

Confirmed artists for this week are Ras Brando, Dezola Kadamawe and Emmanuel Chin. In addition to doing their respective sets, each artist will also be interviewed live on stage prior to their performance.

Plantation Smokehouse and Restaurant continues their weekly Live Band series this Friday – April 15 – with a special performance from recording artist Fantan Mojah. All are invited to join in the festivities in Richmond, St. Ann, Jamaica, as there is no cover charge.

In 2005 Fantan’s debut album Hail the King was released. It featured popular singles: Hail the King, Nuh Build Great Man featuring Jah Cure and Corruption. Those were some of the most talked about records of 05, which resulted in him being dubbed the breakout artist for that year. The album excelled in Europe, opening the door to three consecutive European tours in 2006 and continued success worldwide.
