Fabolous makes triumphant return to Jamaica at Vacae Weekend 2026

ST ANN, Jamaica — International hip-hop star Fabolous made his highly anticipated return to Jamaican stages on Sunday night, delivering a standout performance at Risqué, one of the signature events of Vacae Weekend 2026.

Performing in Jamaica for the first time since 2012, the Brooklyn-born rapper’s appearance marked a major moment for patrons and organisers alike, as excitement had been building around his long-awaited return to the island.

Taking to the stage at Plantation Cove in Ocho Rios, Fabolous did not disappoint, delivering a high-energy set that saw him perform a slew of hit songs spanning his career. Fans were treated to favourites including Into You, Make Me Better, You Be Killin Em, and Shawty is a 10, among others, as the crowd responded with enthusiasm from start to finish.

From the moment he stepped on stage, the connection between the artiste and the audience was evident, with patrons singing along and engaging throughout the performance, creating one of the standout moments of the Vacae Weekend series.

“Bringing Fabolous back to Jamaica after more than a decade was a big moment for us,” said David Mattie. “The response from the crowd showed just how much his music continues to resonate, and it added a special energy to Risqué.”

Known for its premium, late-night appeal, Risqué once again delivered a high-energy experience, combining international talent, strong DJ performances and a stylish crowd to create an unforgettable night.
