AMERICAN Rapper Fabolous is the main international act for Appleton Temptation Isle's original Independence Weekend party series.

"Fabolous is very talented, energetic, and the ladies love him," said ATI Managing Director Alex Chin. "He is a perfect fit for ATI and Stages and he will be a great addition to the weekend!"

The Grammy Award Nominee and BET Hip Hop Award Winner will host and perform at the party that started it all, Stages "the Legend" on August 5.

Stages will be the "Officially Jamaica 50 Celebration" for the ATI weekend. This all-inclusive event will also feature an air-conditioned club within the venue, the official Independence Punch made with Wray & Nephew White Overproof Rum -- and a special show that will light up the night sky.

The weekend also boasts international deejays DJ Envy from New York, DJ Dutty Dex from Miami and the 2012 World Champion Miami Heat's very own DJ Irie.

Appleton Temptation Isle is set for August 3 to 6. The four days will see a seven party line-up which includes: Naked, Wild Sides, Colours Jokers Wild 'Lingerie J'Ouvert', the Official and Original Water Party, Stages 'The Legend', Officially Diagnosed 'Bikini Masquerade', and Full Moon Party 'Mariposa'.
