Buju Banton Performing At Rebel Salute 2019?

Will Buju Banton be performing at Rebel Salute 2019?

Veteran recording artiste and promoter of the event, Tony Rebel told the audience that Banton taking the stage is quite possible however he wants to give the “Wanna Be Loved” singer his space following his prison release.

“All things are possible… Donovan Germain (Buju’s long-time collaborator) is in the house and everybody who come here tonight is asking; ‘Buju is on the Show?'” Tony Rebel said. “But let me tell you something. If a man go to prison for over three thousand and odd days and him forward, allow him to be an astronaut… Why? Him need space. Give him that. So we a do dat. You never know. He’s always invited, Germain knows that. And all things are possible.”
