JAHSON IN JAMAICA ON THE SEARCH FOR THE NEXT CARIBBEAN SUPERSTAR! Selected as Vice President for the Caribbean Urban Music Awards

Hi folks

I know it’s been a while since you’ve heard from us, but we have been that busy, I’ve hardly had time to sit down and write about it all!!

So what’s been happening in Jahson’s world?

Well in December we had the big VIP party at Porters Bar. Another great night had by all, partying til the early hours, entertained by Jahson, Loren Ashley (reggae singer), as well as a number of other special guest PA’s.

We had the lovely Kaya Queen of Clubz on hand to present her latest calendar UK Stunners.  Jahson serenaded Kaya and a wonderful time was had by all. However we must now pass on some very sad news to you all.Kaya was involved in a car accident just before Valentines Day.

There were many prayers for her and well wishers, but unfortunately she was unable to pull through and she passed away on the 27th February at the age of 23. Our thoughts and love go out to her family at this time, and to Mikey Ragga, Kaya’s cousin, who was one of the Dj’s at the VIP party on Boxing Night, who brought Kaya into our lives.
We consider ourselves fortunate to have met her, even if it was only for that short time. Kaya was not only a model, but a TV presenter and club promoter, a very successful business woman, well known in the music industry and will be sadly missed by all, but most of all by her family and friends.  May she now rest in peace.porters3porters2

So what else has been happening?? Jahson will be working with Invincible and other well known artists in Jamaica to search for the next Caribbean superstar. The launch took place on March 3rd in Kingston at the Hilton Hotel, and the award ceremony is taking place on James Bond Beach,  Ocho Rios, Jamaica in April. He will be performing alongside Bobby Valentino, Collie Budz and others!

Jahson will be previewing his new single Hush Hush baby, which he has just produced with Third Dimension Studios , a company that have worked with Soul to Soul and other top artists, based in London.
Jahson is working on his new  video whilst in Jamaica, so keep your eyes on the site for news about this !

Jahson has also been named ambassador for the support for Darfur project. The project which has been created to help raise much needed exposure and financial support for the children in Darfur is attracting a lot of international media support from the high calibre of celebrities being signed up for the star studded concert  being held in London later on in the year.

Commenting on this, Jahson said:" I am very proud to be appointed as International Goodwill Ambassador. People in Darfur are in desperate need of help and we are going to bring a lot of celebrities and artists from around the world to get involved in solving this situation through a series of concerts and fund raising gigs around the world. We must all act now”.

Jahson, joins a list of celebrities including Russell Simmons, Leona Lewis, Jay-Z,Lemar, Sizzlaand many more all lending the voices and talents in support of the ‘Support for Darfur’ project.

The Support for Darfur project aims to offer long term self sustainable projects to help families over the next three years, but already plans  to go way beyond this.  We aim to raise £1millions for conflict-ravaged Darfur, western Sudan, as people continue to flee their homes despite a year-old ceasefire that was signed on 8th April 2004. There is an estimated two million displaced people, but also about the living conditions of those who have stayed behind in their villages and remain vulnerable to violations of international humanitarian law.
