The agency however added that Department of Correctional Services is the appropriate authority to determine whether Kartel is allowed to produce music in custody, “To be clear, as it concerns convicts, their privilege or ability to create music whilst incarcerated is governed by correctional rule,” the commission said in a press release.

The Commission also disclosed that they had a meeting with the Ministry of National Security and Commissioner of Corrections in July last year to discuss the issue of Vybz Kartel allegedly recording music in prison and the matter is currently under investigation.
