Festival Marketplace in downtown Kingston came alive for the launch

Reggae and dancehall recording artiste, Yaksta has launched his debut album, titled Yaksta 22.

With 19 tracks now added to his list of hits, the St Mary ‘Bush Lawd’ said that Yaksta 22 will pull back the curtains to his journey to success, which hasn’t been an easy road. The launch, which took place on the weekend at the Festival Marketplace in downtown Kingston, was a huge success, judging by the resounding support from the local entertainment industry.

As a lead-up to his appearance, performances came from well-known artistes such as Beenie Man, Chronic Law, Shane-O, 10Tik and Monifa. When Yaksta took the stage in his custom green leather outfit, the crowd went wild as he delivered an energetic performance with hits such as See and Know, Hype and Bruk and Assets.

The Dragon-sponsored launch party was testament to Yaksta’s growing fan base and big names in the industry voiced their support for his conscious music. Our Today was in the mix and brings highlights of the event.
