Beres Hammond and Buju Banton on the same stage would be one for the ages.

Buju Banton is a few months away from being released from prison and several local promoters are already gearing up for his return to the musical scene. Ane thing is for sure, his first concert will be a k thing. Reggae fable Beres Hammond has already indicated that he wants to share the stage with the Gargamel and he doesn't care where the show will be.

Beres and Buju have collaborated on a number of singles over the years including "Pull It Up" and "Who Sey (Big Man Don't Cry)." The two singers have remained airtight friends outside of working together musically. Buju Banton, whose existent proper name is Mark Myrie, is currently in the concluding yr of his 10-twelvemonth prison sentence in Florida for drug trafficking. He is slated for release in December of this twelvemonth.

The last time Buju performed at a concert was in 2011 at a testify in Miami during his high profile drug trial. The Grammy-winning reggae singer was convicted on three counts of drug trafficking charges in 2011 and sent to federal prison for 10 years. He appealed the conviction several times over the years but lost on all of his attempts. Since his incarceration, Buju has not released any new music and sources say he has been writing behind bars so you can wait some new music afterward this year or early on next year.
