There was no mention of a clash between Ninja Man and L.A. Lewis, but yesterday, organisers of Sting confirmed that singjay Konshens has been added to its line-up.
In a release last night, the promoters, Supreme Promotions, said the artiste was added to the line-up following the completion of negotiations. In the release, Konshens affirmed his support for the yearly one-night show.
"Initially, Sting was a show I looked forward to watching, not so much to be a part of, though the hardcore dancehall is healthy for the culture. This new turn weh dem a try to mek to give the show a facelift, I'm happy to be a part of it. Sting a Jamaica show fi di grass-roots people dem, so I am happy to be able to perform fi dem," he said.
Konshens had previously been booked for the event in 2008,but due to various reasons he wasn't able to complete his performance.
"I was at Sting 2008 only as a young artiste, coming off a European tour the day of the show, and di band say dem nah rehearse wid mi team if I'm not present. Mix that with the biggest and roughest dancehall crowd in the world and see wah yuh get. Mi escape the boos still," Konshens said jokingly.
It has been a good year for the dancehall star. He scored multiple hits and topped the charts repeatedly, along with MIA nominations, among other awards.
Konshens also appeared on the popular United States-based television show America's Next Top Model.
The release said fans could expect top-notch entertainment from Konshens, with the same energy and enthusiasm of his memorable Reggae Sumfest performance.
