Bounty Killer has sought to address his recent stint in Trinidad and Tobago.
The “WarLord” made a hasty exit at the Guinness Fully Loaded Music Festival on Saturday night during a song-for-song segment with his longtime rival Beenie Man.
According to reports, Bounty was seen backstage pacing back and forth as the “King of Dancehall” begged him to return to the stage however he refused and left the Jean Pierre Complex, Mucurapo venue.
On Tuesday, Killer took to his Instagram account to share his side of the story claiming he wasn’t paid for a clash, only to perform separately.
