CAPLETON PERFORMS AT NEW YORK CITY’S B.B. KING’S ON NOVEMBER 12!

A wise man once said that a prophet is never honored in his own country. And so it has been with Capleton. While the veteran DJ’s words and works long ago earned him the title of “The Prophet”, the respect and honor that should rightfully be his have been a long time coming. Anytime you try to uplift righteousness and upliftment of the people them, then you ah go get a fight, says the hottest entertainer in the worldwide reggae fraternity. “Bob Marley come do it and them fight him. And when Bob Marley dead, that’s when they start to endorse him. I already aware of this, I am not unaware. So I know the more them fight I is the more I get stronger”. In the fast-moving world of dancehall reggae, fame and success are hard to obtain and easy to lose. Fans can be fickle, and trends change in the blink of an eye, leaving most entertainers with painfully short career spans. Only a rare few can remain relevant from year to year, holding their audience’s attention and leaving them crying for more. His lyrics are deep,precise, and thoughtful. His stage shows are nothing less than dynamic, explosive performances. But his remarkable staying power and longevity may be Capleton’s greatest gift.DJ Norie
Respectfully referred to as Da Reggae Don, DJ Norie was born (to Panamanian parents) and raised in Brooklyn’s East Flatbush area. Norie became familiar with raggae music by listening to coveted sound clash cassettes from the ear’s premier Jamaican sound systems. “Listening to the cassettes of Stone Love, Kilimanjaro and other sounds I knew, I wanted to be a part of that,” Norie recalled.
