Mavado LIVE IN CONCERT at Six Flags on August 12, 2012 with TriniFly Promotions


MAVADO
Mavado, "the Gully God," will perform on August 12, 2012 at the largest theme park in Northern America at the Six Flags Caribbean Concert with TriniFly Promotions. 
A reggae singer influenced by the likes of Bounty Killer and Cutty Ranks, David Constantine Brooks, aka Mavado, was born and raised in one of Kingston, Jamaica's more dangerous ghettos, Cassava Piece. Church and a desire to deliver a socially conscious message to the people kept Mavado out of serious trouble. Encouraged by a friend, Mavado visited Junior Reid's recording studio in Kingston, where he met his hero, Bounty Killer. The reggae star recognized the young singer's talent and introduced him to the likes of vocalist Predator and manager Julian Jones-Griffith. In 2004, Mavado released "Real McKoy," his breakthrough single recorded over the Daseca crew's Anger Management riddim. Two years later, the Red Bull and Guinness riddim and the song "Weh Dem a Do" would give him his next big hit, and the successful "Dreaming" and "Bawl Dem a Bawl" singles would follow soon after, but the momentum was almost brought to halt when his father was murdered in Switzerland.
After that tragedy, he decided to resolve the feud between Vibez Kartel and himself.  Over the years, his focus has been on his career, having the ability to out-do himself every time with hits we love such as: "Top Shotta Nah Miss" and "Dying" plus "Real McKoy with a Full Clip," His talent transcends to other arenas, he was one of the few dancehall reggae artists to be included in a video game, Grand Theft Auto 4: Liberty City.  His lyrics could also be heard on 50 Cent and G-Unit’s album T.O.S: Terminate On Site
