Buju is widely considered one of the most significant and well-regarded artists in Jamaican music. Before his arrest on drug-related charges in 2009, he collaborated with many international artists, including famous names in the Hip Hop, Latin and punk rock genres.

While incarcerated his 2010 album ‘Before the Dawn’ won Best Reggae Album at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards. Buju’s career spans four decades and he has belted out numerous hits. Two of his most famous albums ‘Til Shiloh’ and ‘Inna Heights’ came after his conversion to Rastafarianism.

Its evident Buju is working on his renewed music career, releasing a couple of new tracks since he got out of jail. His singles Bagga Mouth, False Pretense, Country for Sale, Trust and Steppa released since his return may likely be part of his forthcoming, post-prison album.

In between releases of those singles, he started the massively successful ‘Long Walk To Freedom” World Tour which saw the first concert at the Jamaican National Stadium to a huge crowd in March 2019 as reported by The Sauce.

According to The Sauce, he is set to perform in the KICC, in Nairobi, Kenya on the 8th of February 2020.
