Black Lantern has been keeping things busy this summer! Hailing from Westmoreland Jamaica, the Reggae, Dancehall, and R&B artist has been hitting stages in Winnipeg including last month's Soca Reggae Festival and the recent City Legends 4 as well as events hosted by Creative Side Entertainment Group and the RAW Artists Canada showcases in Winnipeg and Toronto earlier this year. He's also been singing and dancing a long list of events in support of Black History Month and with the Jamaican Association, Afro-Caribbean Association (Folklorama), and many more. Coming up next, you can catch him live at the Black Mic Mac Festival on July 20 and 21, The Beer Can on August 5 for a music and dance event and then at the second annual Afro Fall Festival on August 31 at the St. Norbert Art's Centre. For you this week we've got his new single "In the Ghetto", released at the beginning of July... press play and don't miss out on seeing Black Lantern live!
