Not sure if anyone here is into dancehall music, BUT.. I present to you..
Vybz Kartel.... the man is a living legend in Jamaica. He’s almost like the dancehall version of Tupac legend-wise, but has more music than Lil Wayne! Lyrically there’s nobody in that genre that’s even close. He was part of a feud Gaza vs Gully that became such a big issue that the prime minister of Jamaica as well as the biggest drug dealer on the island at the time had to tell the parties involved to stop with it, because too many people were dying over it Too bad the Jamaican government hated him, and imo he was set up for a murder and has been locked up for many years. He pretty much predicted that the government would find a way to take him down, and they did. But what they probably didn’t count on was him being just as big of a presence in the dancehall scene, after many years of incarceration. He isn’t supposed to be recording music while locked up, yet still releases lots of music, and is finding ways to keep recording while locked up! He should be a big time artist in the US like Sean Paul, and Shaggy, but for whatever reason he never got the attention here he deserves.
