“We are excited to announce the very first staging of Black and Proud Concert,” says Anthony B. “I’ve been working on this for quite some time now. Putting this event together, I wanted to ensure patrons can come out and have a grand time and enjoy good reggae music.”
The Concert will feature special musical guests such as Turbulence, Pressure, Kabaka Pyramid, and Perfect Giddimani, with more acts to be announced. Adding to the entertainment lineup is the famed New York City dancehall sound system duo from HOT 97 Massive B- Bobby Konders and Jabba will be on the turntables to keep the crowd entertained along with Mountain Lion Sound.
