Shaggy in Tanzania part 1: Zanzibar Film Festival

Zanzibar Film Festival
Shaggy performed at the Zanzibar International Film Festival (ZIFF) in Tanzania and he treated patrons to a hot show. The attendees loved the concert! Dailynews writes: “Throughout the entire performance Shaggy was able to keep the audience under his spell”! The Citizen writes: “Shaggy’s sold out concert [saw a] ground breaking first time performance in Zanzibar by Shaggy!”

As Nell Hamilton writes:

“The gig was fantastic. I haven’t danced so hard in years. I was sure I’d have a good night anyway, but I had an exceptionally brilliant night. He [Shaggy] was such a great entertainer – seemed surprisingly down to earth… I had an absolutely fantastic evening and feel a little flat now it’s over!”

Zanzibar Film Festival press conference
Shaggy gave a press conference upon his arrival at the Zanzibar International Film Festival. Wearing a cool coconut leaf hat, he answered questions about his off the hook new single Sugarcane, his upcoming album Summer in Kingston and more!
