Dancehall 10Tik is eagerly anticipating his upcoming performance at Sashi Experience Festival at Plantation Cove in St Ann on May 25.

“I grew up hearing the stories about Sashi, and I am looking forward to writing my own chapter in local music history with a great performance that people will remember,” 10Tik said.

The Roll Deep artiste believes that the performance will further solidify his status as one of the leading new faces in dancehall. He will be appearing alongside three-time Grammy Award-winning, singer, Ne-Yo, and other superstars.

Sashi, first held in 1999, was last staged in 2002. The event in 2001 drew more than 15,000 patrons, according to a report in Billboard magazine.

“This will be my first major performance in Jamaica this year and it comes after a big show I did in Accra, Ghana so I am definitely looking forward to this weekend’s Sashi show,” he said.

After the show, 10Tik will be turning his attention towards the release of his debut album which will be a dynamic mixture of reggae and pop, a homage to the music that he grew up listening to as a child.

Since the start of the year, he has taken a more inspirational stance by dropping singles which inspire by radiating hope and positivity.

“The only three visuals released since year are songs that speak to the soul, real anthems. Songs like “God Blood”, “One life” and Stronger” are testimony,” he said.

The deejay said that he speaks on behalf of people who come from nothing, born with a burning desire for elevation.

“I talk about the ones who are unspoken, the ones who are marginalised and forgotten. When people listen to my music, it’s going to be personal to them,” 10Tik said at the time.
