Masicka ready for Sumfest

After delivering consecutive superlative performances at BRT Weekend in the United States (US) and the legendary Wireless Festival in the United Kingdom, dancehall heavyweight Masicka is set to bring the same high energy to the Reggae Sumfest stage as he makes his highly anticipated return to the festival this weekend.

His global dominance continues to rise following a show-stopping performance at Bounty Killer’s US return concert at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, and special guest performance at Vybz Kartel’s massive Atlanta show, cementing his status as one of dancehall’s most in-demand artistes.

Now recognised as one of the new faces of reggae on Apple Music, Masicka is carving out a distinct space at the intersection of raw dancehall energy and lyrical finesse.

His single, Mute, continues to dominate playlists, while Rich Sex, produced by Rvssian on the ‘Story Book’ riddim, has garnered major industry recognition. The track was recently named one of Billboard magazine’s June Reggae/Dancehall Fresh Picks.

Speaking about his upcoming Sumfest performance, Masicka shared, “I’m bringing the same flame to the stage”.

With hit records, international recognition, and a string of high-impact performances behind him, Masicka’s return to Reggae Sumfest is primed to be one of the festival’s most unforgettable moments of 2025.
