Beenie Man is going to be performing in East Africa in Dar-Es-Salaam, Tanzania, and Kampala, Uganda. Unfortunately for the folks in Kenya, no shows are scheduled. His performance in Uganda is slated for June 30 2009.
Hemdee Kiwanuka, the CEO of No-End Entertainment is the person instrumental in bringing Beenie Man to East Africa. Although no shows have been scheduled for Kenya, there is still a possibility that he can perform in Kenya, if a Kenyan promoter would be interested in partnering with Kiwanuka.
Kiwanuka is confident that the fans will not be disappointed by the Beenie Man’s performance.
Beenie Man is very popular in the UK and the Diaspora in general. 1996 gave birth to Beenie Man official album “Maestro”; this was produced by manager Patrick Roberts. This album was very rich in content and featured an array of different songs each with a unique mood. The album was a huge success in Britain and the following year Beenie Man’s collaboration with Chevelle Franklin was climbing the UK charts with his latest single “Who I Am” following rapidly behind. It was not long before the songs took over the number one spot on the UK chart consecutively.
He has been gaining ground rapidly and, in 1998, released his third album, “Art & Life” which went on to win a Grammy. To learn more about him, visit his Myspace page.
