Shaggy Says Tessanne Chin Highlight The Radio Bias In Jamaica

Before Tessanne Chin won The Voice season five, you hardly ever hear her music play on the radio in Jamaica.

Now not only has she been getting a lot of love from the reggae/dancehall community, but her music has been quietly added to radio rotation across Jamaica.

Speaking with Winford Williams of Onstage last weekend, Shaggy, who managed Tessanne Chin says the problem goes beyond Tessanne Chin.

“It’s a good question because it also reflect on other artists, not just Tessanne, that are struggling in that field,” Shaggy said.

“If your not in the midst of doing music that are raw in the street music, if you have somewhat of an international flare or some type of music that are clean and stuffs like that then it becomes much like a fight.”
