Eve for Shaggy and Friends charity concert

Tuesday, December 20, 2011



ANOTHER international act has been added to the line-up of the January 7 staging of the Shaggy and Friends charity show at Jamaica House.

Rapper Eve joins Lauryn Hill and Deniece Williams as the non-reggae acts for the event organised by diamond-selling reggae artiste Shaggy to raise funds to go towards the construction of a 15-bed cardiac intensive care unit at the Bustamante Hospital for Children in St Andrew.

Eve, who is no stranger to Jamaica, was here earlier this year for the Excellence in Music and Entertainment EME awards, where she not only performed with female deejay Lady Saw, but received the Friend of Reggae Award from event organiser, radio personality Richard 'Richie B' Burgess.

Eve is best known for her hit singles Who's That Girl, Love is Blind, Just Want to Rock You and Tambourine

Other artistes billed for the event include Stephen Marley, Romain Virgo, Assasin aka Agent Sasco, Wayne Marshall, Tami Chynn, Coco Tea, Bunji Garlin, Fayann Lyons and Half Pint.
