https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2025/12/11/shaggy-sean-paul-jamaica-strong-benefit-concert/87718336007/

A star-studded lineup of musicians is coming together to raise money for Jamaica, after Hurricane Melissa devastated the country in late October.

The Jamaica Strong Benefit Concert will kick off Friday, Dec. 12, at the UBS Arena in New York and stream live on YouTube at 9 p.m. ET. Fans watching online will be able to donate directly on YouTube.

"Jamaica is a land defined by its extraordinary strength and spirit," a release announcing the concert said, adding of the event: "The global heartbeat of Reggae and Dancehall will unite for an unforgettable night of music, culture, and compassion."
