“ I am not overworked or stressed. I just give thanks for life, God is great! ”

If you were to attend a street dance, the club or any type of reggae concert you are bound to hear either “Murderer” or “I’m Broader than Broadway” permeating the air. Renowned for his distinct, melodicand captivating sounds, these are just two of the countless hits Buzzz Magazine’s featured artiste, Barrington Levy has in his extensive catalogue.

Speaking exclusively to Andre Wellington at the Jamaican Pegasus hotel, the harmonious hit-maker discusses his new album, relationships and current affairs; he also shares his opinion on the state of Jamaican music.

Dapper to the bone, decked out in casual wear with a fitted cap and some fancy jewellery to add accent; he sat with us on a beautiful Saturday morning and the conversation went as follows:

Thank you Mr. Levy for taking time out of your busy business international schedule…..

I try to eat right, consume lots of fruits, vegetables and fish.
