Gaza Nation fans took it to social media where a lot of tributes to the artist has been uploaded in the latest hours and Gaza Maxwell songs were uploaded, while the whole dancehall community is still in shock and disbelief.
An artist that worked hard on his music and released good songs staying always loyal to Kartel but also without never bussing big.
It’s really sad and coward the way the man got killed and his killer is still at large while the artist is dead.
