Jamaican Artists Mc Nutty & Dave Tosh For Vybz Kartel

Several Jamaican artists have already expressed solidarity to Vybz Kartel’s situation and his arrest.

Take for example Jamaican artist MC Nuffy, he took Addi’s arrest so personal he has recorded a music single dedicated to Vybz Kartel, in which he says that Vybz Kartel is innocent until proven otherwise.

MC Nuffy’s song is called “Muss Come A Road”, voiced over the “Gripe Water Riddim” and it is produced by Feather Weight Records.

MC Nuffy wants di world to know that he is a loyal Gaza fan, and he won’t switch like many have done since Addi’s incarceration.

“Some people are wagonists, I’m a loyal person and Vybz Kartel is a good artist, and I wouldn’t want to see a good talent wasted. Some people just act like they are with you and when trouble tek yuh they disappear,”

he said adding that he does not know Vybz Kartel as a badman.

“I don’t know Kartel as a bad person, and so I will support him all the way so that he can come out because his fans are waiting”

Nuffy also suggests that most persons who are rejoicing at Vybz Kartel’s demise are plain jealous of his success.

“He is my mentor in music and he came and changed music in Jamaica and a dat dem hate him fah, he is just a man like other people. Some people just hate the man because they can’t be him” he said.

Nuffy is currently getting ready for Sting, where he is expected to perform the song.

Another artist that took Kartel ‘s fate personal is Dave McIntosh, the son of reggae great Peter Tosh showed empathy with Di Teacha’s situation.

Speaking at his father’s birthday symposium on Wednesday, at the Undercroft, UWI, he used his father’s lyrics — “You cyann blame di youths,” to explain his feelings for Kartel.

Dave Tosh also told the audience  that he was contemplating doing some remakes of his father’s work, including You Cyaan Blame Di Youths, which he announced, would feature Vybz Kartel.

He’s planning to remaster songs like Legalize and You Cyaan Blame Di Youth with what he defines “The Top Artist in Jamaica right now” speaking of Vybz Kartel.

The young Tosh also talked to the crowd about the business of reggae.

“Reggae music makes trillions of dollars annually globally. Is enough money fi have everybody in Jamaica living above the poverty line. Yet still, Jamaica don’t own no part of reggae music. I think these things need to query. … I don’t see where Jamaica a benefit from reggae music….”

Dave Tosh also revealed that he was planning a show dubbed: Tribute to Peter Tosh: You Cyaan Blame Di Youths, for which Vybz Kartel would have been the headliner.

“If we had gone through with that, it wouldn’t work out because we already know the position whe him inna right. Even me ask myself right now, why would a man like him put himself inna di position whe him inna. Comes right back to the Peter Tosh song — You Can’t Blame Di Youth.
