Vybz Kartel, Tifa big winners at YVAs
Deejay Vybz Kartel brought the Youth View Awards patrons to their feet as he delivered a surprise performance that was the highlight of the night for his young fans.
Held once again at the National Indoor Sports Centre, the artistes and primarily young fans came out to an event that delivered entertaining performances and interesting fashion.
Despite the appearance of countless artistes, it was the appearance of Vybz Kartel halfway through the show that caught the attention of persons in the grand stand that immediately started to scream in delight. The deejay would later have the grand stand audience and members of the VIP on their feet as Trever Off Key did his Fake Jeans Admit It which led into Kartel and Russian entering the stage for Straight Jeans and Fitted. Kartel then moved to Cakesoap before inviting Sheba onstage for Wha Mek Yuh Do Me Dat and teased with Like Christmas.
smoothly run event
Prior to Kartel's entrance, the entertainment was diverse with numerous dance performances from the likes of 'On the Verge' winners, Infamous Dancers, among others.
Hosts ZJ Bambino and 106 & Park's Rocsi did a good job throughout the night, ensuring for a smoothly run event.
Denyque kicked off the night followed by singer Raine Seville, who returned to the stage for the first time since giving birth. The singer did a tribute to Bob Marley, whose birthday was hours away, singing I Wanna Be Loved.
Khago took to the stage with an energetic rendition of Nah Sell Out, White Tees and Addidas as well as performing his tribute to Coppercat, whose funeral he was just coming from.
Munga went through a number of his hits with Buss It Like An Earthquake, Clean and Fresh among others, while Ce'Cile brought something different to her act, as her performance started with a very young female dancerwho danced alongside the singjay for Whoot Whoot, Cyaan Done before exiting for two male dancers to take the stage for Coffee.
Richie Loop and a slew of dancers followed for My Cupp, and D-Major joined for Party Like It's Your Birthday.
Ikaya brought a touch of consciousness to the stage for Hard Way while Bambino brought humour with his Trever Off Key personality.
Tifa closed the night with a medley of Move Yuh Body, Cyaan Stop Shine, Certified Divas with Tami Chynn, among others. The young diva showcased her performing skills as she danced and even did a little gymnastics as she was thrown into the air, closing the show with a bang.
