Rising Jamaican artist Inpha Reblitive is set to perform at the prestigious 2024 Reggae Sting Concert, sharing the stage with some of the biggest names in Reggae and Dancehall, including Tommy Lee, Jamal, Jamiel, Yaksta, Turbulance, and more. This marks a significant milestone in Inpha’s career, as he takes the stage at one of the most iconic events in Jamaican music history.
Reggae Sting, often referred to as “the greatest one-night Reggae and Dancehall show on earth,” has been a cultural cornerstone since its founding in 1984 by Isaiah Laing under Supreme Promotions. Established during a time when Dancehall lacked a major stage in Jamaica, Laing’s vision was to create an event that could unite communities and showcase the heartbeat of Jamaica’s cultural identity through music. Over the years, the event has launched the careers of countless superstars, including Shabba Ranks, Buju Banton, Vybz Kartel, Bounty Killer, and Sizzla, while also hosting international icons such as Busta Rhymes and Maxi Priest.
For Inpha Reblitive, the opportunity to perform on the Sting stage alongside a lineup of Reggae legends is a testament to his rising status in the industry. Known for his innovative fusion of Dancehall and modern influences, Inpha is rapidly becoming a voice for a new generation of Jamaican artists. Fans attending Reggae Sting 2024 can expect a performance that highlights his creativity, passion, and commitment to pushing the boundaries of the genre.
This year’s event marks a return to its legendary home at Jamworld in Portmore, a venue synonymous with the golden moments of Reggae Sting’s storied history. After undergoing renovations, Jamworld is once again ready to welcome thousands of music fans to experience the unmatched energy and cultural vibrancy of Sting.
As Reggae Sting prepares for the future, the event is undergoing an exciting transformation. The Sting team has also embraced technology, introducing a revamped ticketing platform, a new online music distribution division, and a dedicated streaming network to enhance the experience for fans around the world.
Inpha Reblitive’s performance at Reggae Sting 2024 is set to be a highlight of the event, further cementing the show’s reputation as a launchpad for rising stars and a celebration of Jamaica’s unparalleled musical heritage.

Amos K Returns With The 2nd Chapter of His Groundbreaking EP Series
That’s the mantra versatile Ghanaian Rapper and Producer, Amos K is standing on as he officially releases the second instalment of his successful extended play (EP), “Tell Them, We Are Coming.”
“Tell Them, We Are Coming 2” just like the first one is a five-song project that highlights grim persistence, rebellion against tradition, and breaking of convention, a recurring theme in Amos K’s projects. On the opening track, the skilled rapper returns from the underworld as a “Zombie” – a song where he talks about putting in the work and letting rationality prevail over emotions. There’s no fear in his voice, he raps boldly in two verses disbanded by a melodious hook.
Any rapper eyeing the Best Rap Song of the Year award must buckle up because they have nothing on track two of the project. Crafty word smith Nii Black joins Amos K on “Nothing On Me” as they deliver the best rap song of the year.
The rappity-rap record produced by Kel Beats and 85 Savage is pure flames and hardcore rap for over three minutes. Legend has it that the “booth turned into a furnace” during the recording session. Ride on into the middle track as “Stallion” featuring S.I.N District duo Boi Mack and Spoonz follows. The Hip-Hop track, produced by Bxndit, is a three-verse open mic session where all three artistes take turns to spaz and tell personal stories of pain, struggles, and eventual triumphs.
On “Tell Them, We Are Coming 2” there is “Bad Boy 2.” The themes of rebellion, unconventional, and preaching against conformist behaviors heighten in the second edition of the self-produced record. Amos K taps Yung Demi, Nana OT, and Dess, who all bring different perspectives of being a “Bad Boy.” That hook could not be changed.
But does the rapper regret being a “Bad Boy,” find out on the final track as he sends a reflective letter to his younger self on “13-Year-Old-Me.” The song was produced by the rapper and Kel Beats. Amos K has refined his craft over the years, and “Tell Them, We Are Coming 2” presents a more mature Amos K with a better perspective and sound.
All the songs were mastered by Emunah except track 3, which was mastered by Dab Beatz.
The versatile Amos K mixed every song on the EP. listen here
