Di concert advertisement weh did post pon line had noted dat Chronixx and The Zinc Fence Redemption Band wud mek “their highly anticipated, Brooklyn Mirage debut on Sept 6th”.

It also noted dat “this is an outdoor event and therefore proof of vaccination is currently not required for entry. This is subject to change, pending any additional guidelines from the city or health officials”.

Chronixx did not elaborate furda, but some of him fans dem assumed dat him witdrawal had sinting fi duh wid dem COVID-19 restrictions, one fan surmising dat even if him event did not require patrons fi be vaccinated, di city had shut dung di event “because NYC as a whole is requiring vaccines to attend any event”.

@itsjustkuroi the show was outdoors and didn’t require proof of vaccine or masks,” themattkelly10 said but dis was countered by mossbycre8tion, who wrote: “@themattkelly10 they’re still requiring proof for some outdoor events in nyc” and aneda comment weh noted dat: “I saw that initially too but they also mentioned that guidelines could be subject to change. I guess they did.

Thank you tor standing against mandates and madness!! Big upp and big love,” itsjustkuroi wrote.

Oddas argued dat Chronixx wud have a hard task performing in di US or elsewhere in di world as vaccination was now a requirement globally. [JUS Muse: What a ting doh eeh?!]


He’s free to perform anywhere else he wants. Yet everywhere else is also requiring vaccines. Stay home and do nothing if that’s what you want,” fromwestindies said, before adding: “Go elsewhere if you don’t like vaccine mandates. He can’t even perform in JA. If he wants to perform here, he must follow the rules. Love Chronixx and reggae overall, but Jamaica is going wild with its anti-vaccine stance“.

No vaccine no New York,” aneda fallowa, chamalak_ wrote.

In April 2020, Chronixx did declared pon Instagram, among adda tings, dat him was highly skeptical of di international going-ons relating to di COVID-19 pandemic weh him label a ‘circus’, and in defiance, wud not be doing any online concerts.

Him lata relent and perform him first online concert inna August 2020, weh toast him genre-bending song Cool As The Breeze/Friday and was live-streamed pon YouTube and Facebook.
