Reggae Month celebrations continued at the French Embassy, which hosted the third annual Jam In France concert, presented by French reggae artiste David Cairol & Friends on Thursday, February 13. The night, a collaboration with the Ministry of Culture, Gender, Entertainment and Sport, featured the electrifying sounds of local and international artistes such as Bongo Herman, Mo’ Kalamity, Yaniss Odua, and Micah Shemaiah. Headlining the affair was legendary artiste Yellowman, who wowed the gathering with his impressive catalogue of hits. It was a night when the culture was on full display, cementing the diplomatic friendship between France and Jamaica.
