Reggae Sumfest 2023 had Kabaka Pyramid dominating the show on night 2 with a standout reggae performance for the crowd in Montego Bay, St James. After winning this year’s Grammy for Best Reggae Album (2023), Kabaka Pyramid whose real name is Keron Samuel, rightfully so, had a rant at things on his mind that he felt the crowd needed to hear. Kabaka had a dig at the unfavorable things happening in Jamaica calling out the molly poppers, scammers, dunce people, and obeah workers.
“We have a zero-tolerance policy fi all pedophiles. Dat a one ting dem can’t come legalize,” stated Kabaka.
Research in Jamaica says there is a huge problem with child abuse cases and Kabaka’s message was in direct relation to it. Kudos Kabaka on speaking your mind and the rasta community appreciate you pointing it out.
Not necessarily the voice of reason, however, due to his position of influence his message will always be welcome and it takes one person to take heed for the gesture to mean something.
