Follow Di Arrow, the popular Dancehall show which normally takes place each February in St. Mary, will not take place this year.
Follow Di Arrow, the annual Dancehall show held in James Bond Beach, Jamaica has gathered big crowds and big artists. Last year we reported the crazy bottles rain that started when Bounty Killer made comments that the crowd believe were against Gaza Boss Vybz Kartel. It was like watching a pirate’s movie!
Shortly after Bounty’s words an heavy rain of bottles was thrown on stage forcing Bounty to run away from the stage. When Vybz Kartel appeared on stage shortly after Bounty, he also was greeted with glass bottles and he didn’t have time to talk but just run away the stage for his own safety.
Gunshots were also fired causing the crowd to go into a panic with several injured. Considering all those factors, Follow Di Arrow promoter, Dexton Ennis, intimated during a radio interview on Tuesday that the show would not take place this year.
Rapper Snoop Dogg loves Jamrock and while visiting Jamaica, he also shared that he wants to realize a documentary about/on Jamaica.
He already recorded a song during his trip, title for the single is Reincarnated: Peace, Love and Soul.
While in the island the superstar rapper went visit areas such as Denham Town and Tivoli Gardens with Grammy-winning Reggae artist Stephen Marley.
Snoop made also contact with Rita Marley about his desire to spread knowledge of Rastafarianism and Jamaica’s culture worldwide. There are rumors he could stop and visit Addi in jail at the Horizon Remand Center.

Bounty Killer has been nominated for this year’s Boston Most Elite (MBE) Awards, which will be held on May 19, 2012 at the Champagne Hall, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
He has been nominated for ‘Lifetime Award’ for his contribution to Dancehall.
There are also latest rumors about the possibility, for the War Lord, of regaining back his US working visa soon, just in time for hitting the important upcoming stages of the season in Miami, New York, Boston and so on.
His visa was cancelled in April 2010. Also, there’s more news about Killa, expressing condolences to Bounty Killer and his whole family, because on February 26th Ivy ‘Miss Ivy’ Williams, mother of Bounty Killer, has died.
Miss Ivy raised eight children, including her last son, Bounty, who has mentioned her in many of his songs over the years. A devout Christian, Miss Ivy never liked some of the excessive cursing that her son did in some songs, but was always very proud of his musical success.
Also announced just last week, nominations for the British Reggae Industry Awards were posted on http://www.britreggae.com/vote.php.
Bridgez, who currently has gone viral with her catchy single titled “No Any Man”, was nominated for Best Female International Artist among artists like Tanya Stephens, Alaine, Tessane Chin and Etana, just to name a few.
Talking with Bridgez, she expresses her happiness. “I feel very grateful and humble by the nomination of this award. It is definitely a motivation to see my music recognized outside of Jamaica. It definitely helps me push myself more as an artist to become a household name worldwide. It is a stepping stone in my career, and I hope my fans will take the time to vote.”
With that being said the artist keeps working hard. Her single “Cry” reached the International market and one of her latest singles “Good Good Good” is getting highlights on both International and Jamaican radio stations as well.
She has also had the opportunity to be featured on many stations across the UK, Canada, and US with Interviews discussing her career, kicking off a great campaign in major territories.
