AFTER FOUR YEARS of scheduling conflicts R&B songstress Keyshia Cole is coming to Barbados on December 5th for the Hennessy Artistry show at Kensington Oval.

Yesterday at the launch, Fas Entertainment, along with 7Star and sponsors Hennessy (in the form of distributor Brydens Stokes) and FLOW, officially announced the eclectic line-up for the seventh annual local show.

“Hennessy Artistry Barbados is the biggest one worldwide,” boasted Al Gilkes, of FAS. “From Japan, to China to Australia, none can brag of the calibre like we have. Hennessy Artistry is ten years old and Barbados leg is top of the line.”

Since it is all about blending, this year for the first time ever there will be the addition of soca – with a medley from King Bubba FM, Kirk Brown and the Energy Band, Damian Marvay, Don Trent and Leadpipe and Saddis.

The headliners are Cole, women’s favourite Jah Cure with his lovers rock, fire brand Anthony B and dancehall prince Popcaan. Hosts will be Vanye and Peter Coppin

Milestones were also toasted on the night with Hennessy Cognac celebrating 250 years.  FLOW will be partnering with Hennessy Artistry Barbados for the next three years. (NS)
