CAYMAN Islands-based Jamaican deejay Lavaido says his music has to appeal to the young and old. This was evident after his Heroes’ Weekend performances.

“I make songs that speak to love, relationships, money, and many other topics, but I record in a way that makes it easy to perform in front of crowds from age 5 to 50. Dancehall music doesn’t need to be all raunchy topics to be popular, sometimes it is felt that our music has to be raw or it won’t be accepted, but I’m here to prove that notion wrong,” said Lavaido shared.

The artiste, who performed at Kabana Beach Bacchanal in Ocho Rios and Jamaica Family Fest in Kingston, also believes the problem with lyrical content is affecting the promoter’s interest in booking acts for events that appeal to all ages.

“I try to be way more creative lyrically so I don’t get nervous when I see young kids in front of me at a show. Promoters like this because it makes me way more marketable, I can perform at even gospel events without having to edit my songs,” Lavaido added

Lavaido is currently promoting his singles By My Side and Love You Right, and is also gearing up to release his new motivational track Money Affi Mek later this month.
