Spragga Benz is acting in this upcoming movie called Green Card from Jamaican Director Cleon James that will soon hit US screens.
Green Card is based on Caribbean people making their way to the United States all seeking the American dream. The story explores the decisions they make and how they get to their goals — following the ups and downs and misconceptions that can be formed in a bid to obtain that Green Card.
“The movie is based on true events,” James shares, adding that before penning the script he interviewed several immigrants who shared their stories. Carlton Grant, aka Spragga Benz, portrays Ricarlo — a Rasta man, that is not very keen about getting married for the papers. Spragga is not new to acting: the Jamaican reggae dancehall artist had already acting roles in the now legendary reggae movie Shottas and Brooklyn Babylon, where he starred as himself.
Spragga Benz also has a project in the making with Top Notch Vision, as well as his own documentary which he says is in the final stages of editing while on the recording side he has released Get That Dough, Queen’s Highway and Consequence. He has also shot a video for Call Upon Jah with Sean Paul being edited and soon ready to be released.

Dancehall diva D’Angel, real name Michelle Downer, will launch her debut book, Love Triangle, in February, a book already dubbed “the most controversial Dancehall novel.”
The book marks the first part of a two-book deal with Pageturner Publishing House, as she will also release an autobiographical entitled, Break Free, later this year, which will talk about her many successes and controversies on and off stage.
Love Triangle talks about three contrasting individuals, Dylan, Brandy and Malcolm involved in a steamy back and forth relationships.
According to D’Angel, via press release, her new novel is far from PG.”This is not a kiddy story, this is a story for the mature audience, much like some movies and music are for those of a certain level of maturity, and no, it’s not porn, soft or hard, but we could call it Dancehall with a Soca undertone – interestingly pulsating,” she said.
Former Gaza artist Blak Ryno, kicked off the new year in high spirits and released three new singles since the start of 2012.
‘Build The Youths’ and ‘Diss Me And Fled’, the titles of his new singles. The latest is on a Riddim for Marcus Myrie , son of incarcerated Reggae superstar Buju Banton. The new Ryno’s song entitled ‘Why Life Nuh Sweet’ sees the singjay speaking out for the poor while lashing out at the system for keep neglecting the people with no voice.
The single was released earlier this week on iTunes and other digital platforms.
“The song was inspired by things I see in the streets on my daily travels, people hustling to make ends meet, police brutality, inhumane treatment of the poor and elderly and just social injustices everywhere. So I am just providing a voice for them.” Tune!
