The ‘Worl Boss’ Vybz Kartel continues to show he remains at the helm of global listenership as his 2011 hit “Summer Time” reached a milestone of 100 million streams on Youtube.
The track which has been deemed a dancehall summer anthem by many in the local and international musical space, is Kartel’s second record to cross the 100 million views threshold following his collaboration with Spice on “Conjugal Visit” but first as a solo act.
Despite Kartel being incarcerated his music remains among the most in-demand from the island via the Platform.
The demand was evident in 2016 after he received RIAA gold certification for his single ‘Fever’ which logged the equivalent of 500,000 units sold in the US alone.
“Di Teacha” also gave a lesson in relevance as the track was Brit-certified silver in the UK for registering sales of at least 200,000 in February this year.
Kartel who is currently appealing his murder conviction at the Privy Council has released several projects since his detention including his most recent EP-“Numb”
He is also featured on a Rvssian’s tributary track titled ‘Sixteen’ featuring US rapper Trippie Redd.
