Following his performance at Black on Black in Tortola, British Virgin Islands, on March 15, Vybz Kartel is back in the United States and hit the gym ahead of his New York City show.
The artiste took to social media on Tuesday to show his first workout session. Kartel commenced his fitness journey after he was released from prison last year and used social media to showcase his preparations in the gym ahead of his Freedom Street concert.
However, of late, the busy artiste and businessman has not been frequently posting gym content. In his new video, Kartel can be seen jogging on a treadmill and using a leg extension and curl machine.
In addition to producer Linton ‘TJ’ White, the Summer Time deejay was also joined by producer and party promoter Skatta Burrell at the gym. Captioning the post Kartel wrote, “DAY1 KYM SESSION IN 🇺🇸 USA! FULLY FOCUSED ON…..GOD, FAMILY, MONEY & ME! GODISTHEGREATEST #POSITIVE ENERGY AROUND HERE!”

In a separate post in which he also expressed that he is staying focused, Kartel gave a better look at the Range Rover he drove to the gym in.
“Not even two months in America. Stacking up these millions. Staying focused. God is the greatest,” Kartel stated in the short video clip in his Instagram Stories.
The deejay also shared an inspirational message, writing, “Seek purpose and abundance, hate won’t get you far.”
Kartel’s performance at Reggae Fest in New York City is scheduled for April 11 at the Barclays Center. His concert in New York will be his first performance in the United States in over 20 years.
It is not clear if the artiste will be staying in the country until his performance. Since his departure from Jamaica in February for the Grammy Awards, Kartel has not yet returned to the island.
This trip overseas has been his longest trip away from the country since his prison release.
