Masicka returns to Kingston for Streetz Festival

Dancehall artiste Masicka is scheduled to give his first public performance in Kingston since 2019 when he headlines the September 2 staging of Streetz Festival.

Previous stagings of Streetz Festival in Ocho Rios, St Ann, saw performances by Ding Dong, and Sky Juice from Metro Media, with patron numbers of up to 5,000 and 7,000, respectively. A similar level of quality and success is anticipated on September 2. In addition to Masicka, patrons can further anticipate pure vibe with the sounds of DJs Boom Boom, Shukkle Bus, Chrome and Coppershot, all within the aesthetic of the authentic 'street' style of dancehall.

Bringing the festival to Kingston, specifically the National Stadium car park, the hosts are hoping for a greater turnout and support from their patrons.

"We are exceptionally proud of the success we've had with our last two stagings of Streetz in St Ann, and we are looking forward to taking it to Kingston for our third staging," Chad Williams, one of the directors of the festival, said.

"A big thank you to Dragon Stout for seeing our vision and coming on board in such a major way. I know Masicka is excited to finally perform for his Kingston fans and we expect a stellar performance, as usual," he added.

Williams also assured patrons that they can look forward to a "top-tier execution, with easy bar access and a safe and comfortable environment to enjoy dancehall music".
