The Magnum Xplosion SummerStageTT Road Show has been visiting bars around the nation these past few weekends, sharing the energy of this iconic beverage of the dancehall with consumers, even as they promote this year’s major concert event, themed ‘Generations of Dancehall’ and scheduled for August 10, at the Queen’s Park Savannah in Port of Spain.
Fans of Jamaican dancehall culture in the twin island republic will witness an extraordinary lineup with the legendary DJ “Bounty Killer” as the headliner promising an unforgettable performance and “Alkaline” will bring his diverse catalog to the stage, ensuring a powerful and dynamic set. Joining them will be rising stars, “Kraff”and “Rajah Wild”, who will deliver exceptional entertainment for younger attendees.
Lyndon Gomez of the event’s organising committee and promotion team, Purple Robe Entertainment explained this year’s theme and the rationale behind it:
“Last year’s cast was a younger generation of dancehall acts, which in turn attracted a younger audience. So this year, we wanted to have a better balance all around so we came up with the concept of “Generations” with the aim of having different acts to represent and appeal to different generations of dancehall music fans.
“Kraff and Rajah Wild are two of the youngest sensations out now and they will appeal to the youngest fans, while Alkaline will attract the fans from the mid-2000s come forward and Bounty Killer is a veteran and a legend with a strong following from the 90s dancehall era. So we wanted to have a better balance across the different demographics of the dancehall community for this year’s Magnum Xplosion SummerStage concert.”
