‘IT A STREAM?’ Beenie Man announces his own takeover of New York
Beenie Man has recognised the successes of fellow Jamaican entertainers Vybz Kartel and Buju Banton, both of whom sold out shows in New York on two consecutive days.
Reggae superstar Buju Banton performed the feat last year at the UBS Arena in Queens during his Overcomer tour, while Vybz Kartel pulled in over 39,000 fans over two days in the 20,000 capacity Barclays Center in Brooklyn over the weekend.
