BARBADOS REGGAE WEEKEND SIZZLED

Legends of Reggae  launched the Barbados Reggae Weekend,at the National Botanical Gardens with a line up that included several Barbadian artist Daddy Plume, Kid Site, Peter Ram, Lil Rick, Natalie Burke.  

Regional artist Pinchers, Admiral Tibbet, Eric Donaldson with Sanchez bringing down the curtain on the first night with hit after hit. Not even pouring rain moved the appreciative reggae fans.

The second installment took place last Saturday night at the same location. Hundreds descended on the open air vista to be seen the performances of Chronic Law, Byron Messiah, Jan Vinci, Kranium, Kittitian Brutal Cranster and of course Sizzla. 

The audience sang, rocked and grooved to every song and waited patiently for their favourite artist to perform. Each set was followed by local DJs who kept up the hype. 

Sizzla graced the stage around 12.50 am performing for about an hour belting out  most of his popular hits and favourites for the crowd. 

The Barbados reggae weekend continued on Sunday April 28th with Reggae in the Gardens featuring UB 40, Morgan Heritage, Queen Ifrica, Tessanne  Chin and Massicka.

The massive crowd  sang  and danced  as each artist energetically performed  but the anticipation and excitement grew as they awaited UB40 with Ali Campbell and Morgan Heritage.

The wait was worth it as the performance  of both groups was fantastic.  Even though the breaks between performances were long there was no mass exodus.  The show ended  on a high with Massicka around 4 am.
