As a result of a gun incident at a dancehall concert, the nation of Guyana bans dancehall artiste skeng from performing at public events in that country.

The announcement was made by the country’s public security minister, who said “no artiste like Skeng will ever come again into this country under the signature of any person from the Ministry of Home Affairs or from the Guyana Police Force.”

Benn was speaking at the opening of the Community Relations Department of the Guyana Police Force.

Minister went on to state that while Skeng and any other artiste who have a “record of promoting vulgar and lawless behavior including the firing of gunshots in public places” will not be granted permission to appear on a public stage, they could still make private club appearances and “behave as badly as they want.”

  • Montego Bay Ascendant: Swallowtail Tower Tops Out, Cementing City’s Role as Jamaica’s New Development Leader

    Montego Bay, long established as the Caribbean’s premier tourism capital, is now boldly stepping forward to claim its title as a leader in integrated, high-end residential development. The city’s skyline has been irreversibly changed with the Official Topping-Out Ceremony of the Swallowtail Tower, the first of the four luxury residential towers at The Pinnacle. Reaching its final height of 28 stories, the tower now stands as the tallest building in Jamaica. Notably, even during its construction, the structure and its installed systems demonstrated absolute resilience against the fury of Hurricane Melissa, standing tall and virtually unscathed against the Category 5 winds. This monumental achievement not only solidifies Montego Bay’s structural progress but also signals its intent to become a primary hub for luxury living and diversified economic activity, challenging Kingston’s traditional dominance in non-tourism-centric development.
