Jamaican reggae musician, pleads with US, Jamaican government to remove Travel Ban on Beenie Man.

He says a lot about Bennie Man after pleading with the United States government and also Jamaican government.

Shaggy says, “As we celebrate the talents of these two legends Beenie man and Grungga Adzilla.”

“And the dance hall culture which they represent, to the figure of over 500k streams last night on the verzuz”

“platform, Instagram. We saw the likes of a Spotify, you tube, SiriusXM, Facebook, I heart media,”

“Hot97, applemusic, pandora, revolt, Ciroc, tidal, plus countless stars

And corporate entities, all on board to witness what was considered the best Verzuz yet!!!

According to the organizers @therealswizzz and @timbaland.

Fans world wide were greeted with a cultural experience of epic proportions as best as it could be delivered in these covid times.

This was a boost to our spirits, our tourism, our economy, our music, and most importantly brand jamaica.

BUT LETS NOT FORGET!!!…,.that both of these artist, these two legends, these two ambassadors of our country our music.

And our culture, STILL CANNOT TRAVEL!! It’s about time we rally and push the powers at be to free up

These artist allow them traveling visas, work permits so they can travel freely to promote our culture

And represent our brand, I’m calling on the Jamaican government, the U.S. Ambassador and the United States

Embassy @usembassyja to atleast start having dialogue where this is concerned,

I’m calling on the Hon. Olivier Babsy Grange @hon.olivigrange

The culture needs it, the music needs it, the economy needs it, the country needs it the fans need it. Salute DANCE HALL.
