The event according to Reggae Sumfest “intends to pay tribute to the best of Jamaican / Caribbean social media by recognizing influencers, companies and organizations on Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram”. It further adds “We recognize that one post, share, like on social media can shape how we view things, what we eat, where we go and what we say. We have seen stars emerge, songs take flight and social change take place”.
“Dovey Magnum, Tifa & RDX has been impacting the genre locally and internationally over the years and their catalog, accolades and nods from various entities speaks to that. With Reggae Sumfest adding such an event to their lineup, it not only demonstrates how reggae-dancehall has transcend but also how it’s influences and reflects a society. All three acts are immensely grateful for the nomination and humbled by the love their fans show continuously” – Shuzzr, publicist.
