The dancehall artist Positive Vibes is going on a southern tour. It’s
news because while Belizean artists are known to release album’s one-one,
they very rarely tour. But this southern boy from Georgeville Village is going
back to his home area with a tour that starts on March sixth in Independence
Village. He and his tour mate Berne told us why it is called the “no sense”
tour.
Positive Vibes,
“The reason why I call the tour ‘No Sense’ is because
majority of the things the youths are doing, especially the youths don’t
make no kind of sense, especially the looting, the killing – those things
don’t make no kind of sense so we are trying to make this nationwide.
We are starting the tour down south, the destination is Independence at Third
Base Dugout – four days straight through no rest because we need to spread
the message to people.”
Berne,
“This is the ‘No Sense’ tour and like the man said crime
and violence in the streets of Belize City right now is crazy, out of the world.
So we had to come up with something that would just target our youths and get
at them to win back our youths. So we’re going door to door. We going
town to town, we going city to city campaigning like politicians to win our
youths back. ‘No Sense’ – you got to get it right. We putting
real professional sound, packaging it correctly and deliver to the people so
the people get an opportunity to say let me take a listen and when they listen
we’re going to win them back because it is good music, good material,
positive vibes, and something everybody wants to be a part of.”
The tour goes for four nights in a row from Independence, Dangriga,
Punta Gorda, and ends in Georgetown. They will be joined by a number of other
artists.
