Having been named a person of interest by the police, dancehall artiste Flexxx said he had to cut short his stint in the United States in order to clear his name.

The artiste, whose name is Omar Henry, was listed as a person of interest by the St Andrew North Police Division two weeks ago. However, at the time he was in the United States and was unable to report to the police.

Flexxx, who had performed in California alongside Mavado and did other shows with Kibaki elsewhere, said he had to make a hasty return to the island. He said he decided to return even sooner after hearing an interview Mavado did with Irie FM's 'Music News' disassociating himself from him.

"I could have stayed but Mavado did an interview disassociating himself. He called denying that I was on tour with him. He didn't have to do an interview like that. Because he did that interview I had to cut it short and get myself cleared up," he told THE STAR, noting that he also missed some promotional shows as a result.

In the interview that was done with the radio station last weekend, Mavado said: "I want Jamaica to know that I am not on tour. All of the shows, I am doing by myself. I don't know anything about anyone being on tour with me. That's strange to me. I just want to clear it up that I am just here working hard on my album."

But when asked about the situation between himself and Mavado, Flexxx had very little to say.

"I am doing my thing. I am signed to Hapilos Entertainment and my career is doing well. Mi nah really look fi who waan deal wid mi and who nuh waan deal wid mi," he told THE STAR.

Meanwhile, Flexxx said his visit with the police lasted approximately 15 minutes, as he claimed the police said they had done their investigation and "everybody a seh yuh a law-abiding citizen and you a artiste." He said he was also asked about an incident that occurred in Whitehall Avenue in St Andrew which he had no knowledge about.

Now that the issue with the police has been resolved, Flexxx said he will be returning to the United States to complete the shows that he said were going well up to the point of his departure. He said he will be doing a number of shows in places like New York and Massachusetts.

In addition, Flexxx said he will be releasing a song with Ms Thing called When Mi Want it. He added that his music video with Chevaugh for a song calledCaan Stop Wi Now is slated for release and he will be doing a video for Seh Weh Mi Waan Seh on his return to the island.
