Following what has been described as a “resounding success” of two sold-out shows recently, with more than 36,000 concert goers at the prestigious UBS Arena in Long Island, Buju Banton, the legendary GRAMMY award-winning reggae artist, on Monday announced his inaugural Arena Tour, “The Overcomer.”

“Rightfully titled, ‘The Overcomer’ tour will feature billboard chart-topping special guest artist Fridayy,” Ronnie Tomlinson, the Brooklyn-based, Jamaican-born entertainment publicist, told Caribbean Life.

Known for his exceptional musical abilities, Fridayy, a Haitian American singer, songwriter, and record producer, “has made waves in the music industry” with his “When It Comes To You,” Stand By Me,” “Without You” and his triple Grammy nominated song “God Did” by Dj Khaled, featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z and John Legend, said Tomlinson, the chief executive officer of the New York-based Destine Media.

She said Buju Banton, backed by Shiloh Band, “captivated fans with a thrilling 90-minute performance over the weekend that showcased his unmatched talent and energy, cementing his status as the first reggae artist to achieve such record-breaking ticket sales in two days.”

Buju Banton’s manager, Joseph Budafuco, expressed “great pride” in the artiste’s accomplishments and the “monumental nature of his first-ever Arena Tour.”

He underscored the significance of Buju Banton returning to tour in the United States after a 15-year hiatus, emphasizing the anticipation and excitement surrounding this momentous tour.

Tomlinson said Buju Banton’s “hottest reggae concert ticket” is produced by Black-owned AG Touring in association with Gargamel Music, XO Management, Mammoth and Eventim.

The historical run kicks off on Aug. 24 in Fort Lauderdale, Fl at the Amerant Bank Arena, making stops across US to Tampa; Washington, D.C.; Boston; Atlanta; Houston; Inglewood, CA before heading to Brooklyn’s Barclay Center.
