Upcoming dancehall artist, GABRIEL

Gabriel, a young and promising artist surfaced the dancehall scene in 1999. Equipped with a powerful voice, he has put out several good hits and delivered excellent stage performances.
His well known recording 'Long, Plain and Straight', although controversial did very well in Kingston's dancehall. “ It was looked at as a song that disrespected the government of the day” said Gabriel and it therefore did not get airplay. He believes that his lyrical delivery is by no means meant to offend the public, as it is an artistic expression of life experiences. In the Bible, Gabriel was a prophet and I see myself as doing the same by talking about things that are going on now," he said. (Jamaica Gleaner June 4, 2002)
