“Red Bull Culture Clash is such a unique event, and it was a joy to be able to not only participate in 2019 with team ‘Do it for the Culture’, but to win! It was an epic night, and to know it’s finally making its way back home, where the real foundation of Clash Culture was built, is incredible. The artists, the MC’s, the special guests, the dubplates! It’s a platform to really showcase all that Jamaican talent has to offer, and celebrate the uniqueness of Jamaican music, of Dancehall, of clashing, of our culture. Big up Red Bull for bringing this back home and continuing to highlight and celebrate Jamaican culture,” DJ Bambino shared.

Attendees had the opportunity to engage with the crew members and learn more about how the Red Bull Culture Clash brings together the best elements of Jamaica’s rich sound system culture, blending reggae, dancehall, soca, and global influences into a vibrant musical showdown.
