Popular Jamaican Reggae and Dancehall musician, Adidja Palme, professionally known as Vybz Kartel has sent a word of advise to the youth after spending 12 years behind bars.
A widely circulated video captures the 48-year-old musician exiting the prison grounds after receiving a release order from the Jamaican Court of Appeal.
The ‘Fever’ hitmaker urged the youth to avoid criminal activities, as time spent in prison is a squandered opportunity” shortly after his release.
In the footage, he is seen being accompanied by friends to a vehicle, where he imparted his advice
“Tell di youth ‘em fi stay outta crime, it nuh worth it, a waste a life, a waste a time Breda,” he stated.
Vybz Kartel, along with three co-defendants, has been incarcerated in a Jamaican prison since their arrests in 2011 and subsequent conviction in 2014 for the murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams, whose remains have never been located.
The conviction was primarily based on circumstantial evidence, including video footage and phone records from his BlackBerry Torch, as well as testimony from a witness whose credibility has been called into question.
Recently, the Jamaica Court of Appeal mandated the release of Vybz Kartel and his three co-defendants after the renowned dancehall artist endured several years of imprisonment.
