A media Appreciation Soiree thrown by George Crooks, Jammins Entertainment CEO, gave\u00a0us an insight as to what’s next for this amelioration entertainment company. Jammins Entertainment have been out front lately, with a series of concerts at Coney Island. The first show feathered Maxi Priest, Ziggy Marley, Steel Pulse, Ed Robinson and Beniton with Sonia Williams; it was hosted by Dahved Levy. Their latest will be “Soca Meet Reggae on the Beach,” Sunday, Sept 4, 2016, Labor Day Weekend <\/strong>at the Ford Amphitheatre on Coney Island board walk. We also learned that the up coming Beres Hammond<\/strong> show, is already sold out. The impending Coney Island show includes: Tarrus Riley, Machel Montano, Capleton, Lyrikal and the New Kingston Band.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crooks said the party was to show appreciation for the media’s effort’s that they have shown him and his companies over\u00a0 the years. The Soiree, turned into a well respected night, right down to the two cakes and the Bartenura Moscato wine, (one of my favorite Moscato wines). The nicete was held at Trelawni Place, 1440 Utica Avenue, Brooklyn NY.<\/p>\n

The room full of media personalities and some spectators listen to moderator Sharon Gordon, founder of CPR, the Correlation to Preserve Reggae; who told us why the Soiree was significant and introduced Crooks to the crowd. “A friend in need is a friend indeed,” Crooks uttered first thing. He thanked several people personally and shared stories about a few of them. Crooks said, “A dollar off every ticket of the live events goes to the American Foundation for the University of the West Indies,” for which the Director of that Foundation Ann Marie Grant, was on hand. “New York promoters don’t give no props.” “We have some serious New York artist coming up.” “Big up to Sharon Gordon,”\u00a0said Producer\/Singer Ed Robinson when he was introduced. Ed also didn’t fail to mention that Crooks paid him.<\/p>\n

The Media dined on coconut shrimps and some very tasty onion rings. I’m still trying to figure out how they made it taste like that. The media was also treated to meet some home grown local reggae artist and one international English bread, artist–Macini, who turned the house out with his acappella free style d-jing, he was really good. Thereafter, he treated all of us with sample cds of his work. The Soiree was a well attended event; Brooklyn came out, Queens came out, Bronx and as far away as New Jersey.<\/p>\n
