Popcaan Receive Threats From Trinidadian Promoters

The family of  Portmore Empire recording artiste Andre Sutherland, more popularly known as Popcaan, is concerned about his safety, since departing for the twin island republic of Trinidad & Tobago on Friday (January 27).

Reports surfacing from Trinidad are that five concert promoters have issued serious threats to the artiste, over money they allegedly paid to someone in Jamaica to book him for a number of shows.

However, his family is insisting that neither the artiste nor his management team knows anything about those five concerts.They argue that the only show he's aware of, is the one he was officially booked for, and hence the reason he went there to perform on Saturday (January 28).

Popcaan's mother Rhona Johnston, said her son got word that men were looking for him shortly after he landed in Trinidad late Friday.

She explained that he had to change hotel several times, to avoid being located by representatives of the promoters in question, who insisted that the artiste should return the money or face harsh consequences. She intimated that up to late Friday night Popcaan was still on the move, and not aware if he had reported the matter to the local authorities.

She's also appealing to the promoters that her son did not collect money for any other performances. Popcaan is a member of the Vybz Kartel led Gaza outfit and is best known for songs such as 'Clarks,' 'Gangster City' and more recently 'Ravin.'
