Rebel Salute at St Elizabeth’s Port Kaiser Sports Club is a Jamaican roots reggae festival, but there’s no Red Stripe in sight.
Their strict no alcohol, no drugs and even no meat policy means it’s all about the music.
Rebel Salute has been going strong for 15 years and past performers have included Burning Spear and Jimmy Cliff.
The positive messages that Rebel Salute has championed for almost two decades is an important step in reconnecting dancehall to positiveness. With Beres Hammond back and better than ever after a 7 years absence .
Rebel Salute has always prided itself in recognizing and promoting up and coming talent such as Tarrus Riley and Queen Ifrica, that have gone, over the years, on to international acclaim yet still keep going back on Rebel’s stage; as well I-Octane, another rising star that has been on that stage for the past 3 years and was joined also by: Tanya Stephens, Ken Boothe, Khago, Chuck Fenda, Fanton Mojah, Junior X, Spanner Banner, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All-stars and many more as part of a more efficient billing this year.
Rebel Salute happened in St.Elizabeth’s Port Kaiser last Saturday 15th of January. Official site in unreachable because of the huge amount of hits of these past days but MissGaza will soon provide the highlights.
