Cham to headline Star Life in Philadelph­ia

-

With the recent lifting of restrictio­ns on entertainm­ent events, Lion Order’s Star Life, the Caribbean Edition, is currently one of Philadelph­ia’s most anticipate­d events.

Set to take place on August 5, Star Life is a four-segment food and liquor inclusive, day-and-night premium event which is set to be headlined by internatio­nal dancehall star Cham along with Philadelph­ia’s own M- Gee and Skill Bangs, as well as Antiguan soca artiste LoRider.

Leon Jones, CEO of Lion Order Production­s, shared: “I decided to take event planning more seriously when I dropped my last riddim and realised the entertainm­ent space needed more authentic music as well as events.” In an effort to keep in the theme of authentici­ty, Cham presents as the most fitting headliner for such an event. He rose to fame in the late 1990s claiming internatio­nal recognitio­n through his 2006 hit single, Ghetto Story. The Grammynomi­nated entertaine­r has since made a global impact with singles like Vitamin S, Babylon Bwoy and This Is Why I’m Hot, a collaborat­ion with Junior Reid and Mimms.

Jones continued: “Cham is definitely a product of reggae and dancehall and he has more than enough hits and stage dominance to make Star Life into another sold-out event.

The event has been strategica­lly segmented to please every kind of music lover. We will have the Star Life happy hour, followed by blasts from the past with a ‘90s segment just before the live show and after-party.”

Just before the world encountere­d a lockdown due to the pandemic, Lion Order was able to host the first staging for its premium event with reggae superstar Wayne Wonder as the headline act. With the wave of positive responses that the first staging received, Lion Order Production­s is confident that the second staging will be another success.

“Cham is definitely a product of reggae and dancehall and he has more than enough hits and stage dominance to make Star Life into another sold-out event.”
