On the evening of Saturday, January 6th 2018, scores of supporters gathered on the lawns of Jamaica House for the 6th staging of the Shaggy and Friends charity concert. The concert is an initiative of the Shaggy Make a Difference Foundation which is a biennial event in aid of improving the services at the Bustamante Hospital for Children. This years efforts are focused on improving the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
This was my first time attending the event, and a first covering an event such as this. It was indeed enjoyable and the energy filled the atmosphere with each performance. The lineup included Sting, Wyclef Jean, Doug E. Fresh, Bunji Garlin and Fay-Ann Lyons, Christopher Martin, Romain Virgo, Aidonia, Dexta Daps, Junior Reid, Shenseea, Barrington Levy, Third World, Chaka Demus and Pliers, Capleton, Ding Dong, Professor Nuts and Wayne Wonder.
