All artists will be backed by Lloyd Parks & We The People Band; with hosts / MC’s DJ Bambino and Shantol Jackson. Tickets are $2,000 JMD at the gate.
We are not sure what went on behind the scenes but Jamaican artist Koffee, who was booked and advertised for the ONE Music Festival, has just announced that she will no longer be on the event. This seems very strange as the two-day show kicks off today, September 7th.
Other confirmed performers include: Usher, Wu Tang Clan, DMX, Gucci Mane, Tory Lanez, Pharrell Williams, Musiq Soulchild and many more top-tier artists. However, Koffee is the only one, that we are aware of, that has dropped out of the lineup.
Tomorrow, Sunday, September 8th, the Angola singer, Jah Bouks, will be hitting the stage at Dreikönigskeller FFM (Färberstraße 71, 60594) in Frankfurt, Germany to do a live set. The artist is currently on his 2019 Euro tour.
On Sunday, November 10th, two of Jamaica’s hottest acts will be live on the same stage in Birmingham, UK. Roots reggae artist Chronixx and the young lyricist Koffee are confirmed for the Birmingham Arena (King Edward Road) from 18:00 to 23:00 on the aforementioned date.
La Mairie de Saint Laurent du Maroni and Orange Vous present the 2019 staging of ‘Le Mega Mouv De L’Ouest‘ on November 9th and 10th at the city’s transportation camp.
This year’s headliner is established reggae recording artist Glen Washington. He will be supported by several local talents.
