>> Irie Jamboree 2009 Gallery

Irie Jamboree is again upon us and what a line up we have for this year, veteran artist such as Tony Rebel, Lady G, Sugar Minott, Shinehead (whom was presented with a award of recognition by Irie Jam Media), & Freddy McGregor. They seem to be a great addition to The 7th Annual North America’s Premier Reggae Festival. It gave this years Jamboree a little of that natural vibes and brought out more of the mature crowd.

We still had our mainstream reggae artist which included Assassin (whom gave an outstanding performance), TOK, Spice, Ras Shiloh, Queen Ifrica, Etana & Sean Paul. Mr.Vegas was in attendance and scheduled to performed then bumped last minute. He recently discussed the incident on his Twitter page. Among the well known were the new and upcoming artist such as Barbee, Steele, Humble, Prestige & Tasha T. Beenie Man was also spotted backstage but did not perform at this years Jamboree.

All in all everyone came out did their best to entertain the NY Labor Day Weekend crowds some good, some bad and some in between. One change in this years show is the venue which was held at the outdoor complex at York College, which is more accessible by public transportation then the previous venue, and numerous parking lots within a two block radius on the event. It seemed in the years past there was much complain in regards to parking and traffic.

Shout to DJ Trini...Thanks a whole lot fam's.....your the best!
