Wayne Marshall was reduced to tears while delivering his hit single “Glory To God” at the funeral for Yetanya Francis.
The Dancehall superstar was present to deliver a tribute for 14-year-old child, who was brutally murdered in Arnett Gardens back in August, but was reduced to tears during the ceremony.
On August 23 the teen was reported missing after leaving home to go to a nearby shop for food. Her nude, partially burnt body was found in a section of the community by residents the following day.
Marshall reveals that he was asked to perform the song as a tribute to Yetanya, to which he immediately agreed, but the performance proved especially difficult as it hit him emotionally, bringing up fresh wounds.
Are Wayne Marshall & Bounty Killer Becoming Christians?
“It is rare that I couldn’t compose myself. Usually I’m OK, but this opened wounds where mourning is concerned for me. It ruff,” he said.
The occasion seems to have had a personal effect on the singjay as he also recently lost his father, Wycliffe Mitchell, back in June.
In recent months fans have speculated that the deejay was moving towards joining the Christian faith after he re-emerged with the gospel track and cut his off his iconic locks following the death of his father.
