“It a go full a vibes and high energy. Montego Bay and its surroundings a me place so, of course, me know it a go slap weh,” he said.
With his hardcore deejay style, the entertainer is currently riding high with songs like Everything Me Want, Hardball, Pain ldquo;N” Sorrow, and Gas Dem.
“It’s all about the work that I have been putting in. The Dream Live Concert has only top acts on it, so to get a spot on it means that I am doing a good thing,” he said.
The concert will also feature Spice, Bounty Killer, Ding Dong, Popcaan and Elephant Man.
Before the Dream Live Concert, Masicka is slated to perform at Reggae Sumfest later this month. The deejay is also working on new singles with American rappers Busta Rhymes and Kid Rock, while promoting one of his latest singles, Dem No Frighten We.
Masicka, whose given name is Javaun Fearon, is currently signed to the Corey Todd-owned Takeova Records.
