President of The Showdown Mas Camp Frederica Riley says her organization “supports and fully endorsed the Cadence – Lypso Tribute Festival on Friday, July 29, 2022, Saturday, July 30, 2022, and Sunday, July 31, 2022, organized by Creole HeartBeat.”
According to a release from the Show Down Mas Camp, “the staging of these events this weekend is considered as a positive initiative of bringing our great artists together and to honor them for making Dominicans proud through their talent and music production as well as keeping that aspect of our music genre alive. It also provides a perfect opportunity for others particularly the young people to come forward to play their part and to help build a stronger music industry in our beloved country.”
“The Showdown Mas Camp has canceled its emancipation tent carded for Friday, July 29, 2022, in support of the Cadence – Lypso festival and encouraged the public to attend in large numbers. We wish to compliment Mr. Leroy Charles (Prince Wadix) and his team for their work in putting this festival together and keeping the Cadence – Lypso alive in Dominica,” Riley stated.
