Bounty Killer Will Be Back In The United Kingdom This November

Posted on September 13, 2024 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

UK-based fans and supporters of dancehall legend Bounty Killer are psyched after learning that the deejay will be doing two major shows in Britain this November.

The first is the Legends of Legends concert happening at the OVO Arena in Wembley on Sunday, November 17, which will be jointly headlined by both Beenie Man and Baby Cham. A few days later, on Sunday, November 24, Bounty will perform at the Forum (52-54 Dale End) in Birmingham. Here he will be supported by his longtime friend and colleague Richie Stephens, as well as emerging artist Wilful Skilful.

With his ongoing weekly commitments here at home (Jamaica) plus his overseas engagements, it goes without saying that Bounty maintains a busy schedule. Keep in mind that in addition to his public appearances, he continues to record and release new music. As a matter of fact, one of his recent releases, Ball A Roll, produced by Pandemic Records & Ent. LLC, is now trending, and depending on how big it gets, it may further exacerbate his already pressed agenda.
