“There is an ongoing saga going on between Sting and Vybz Kartel show,” she said before detailing that in the past, there were multiple shows at the end of each year locally and all of the events usually “sell off” in the past hence there is enough room for both shows.

In the video uploaded to her TikTok channel, Macka Diamond expressed that because of the ongoing controversy between Alkaline and Vybz Kartel, having Alkaline as the headliner on Sting would cause excitement and people would turn up to both shows to judge the performances.

“Mi feel seh that wudda work!” said the ‘Bun him‘ artiste.

She also pointed out that Mavado should perform at either one of the shows if possible, however, she is not sure how it would work because Vybz Kartel and Mavado are on good terms nowadays while Mavado and Alkaline are known as longtime friends.

As things stand, Sting is scheduled to take place at JamWorld from December 26 to 28 while Vybz Kartel’s show which is yet to be given a name will be on December 31.

In a recent OnstageTV interview, Shawn Storm asked if “Sting still a keep”, on the other hand, Sting associate MC Nuffy took to social media recently to share a lengthy message detailing why Laing should cancel Sting for 2024.

Tahheer Laing who is currently the main face of the show responded to MC Nuffy, stating that the show will still go on as planned and prospective patrons should look out for more info about the show in September.

Laing was also asked about the possibility of Alkaline performing on the show to which he replied stating that he won’t comment on Alkaline at the moment, hence he did not rule out the possibility of the Vendetta Boss appearing on the show this year.

With that said, about four shows are in anticipation for the end of the year locally, Popcaan’s Unruly Fest, Vybz Kartel’s Shows, Sting, and Alkaline’s New Rules, however, only two of the four have been confirmed so far.
