Duane Stephenson, Etana, Cocoa Tea, and TJB Memeber Laverne Mattie at the
'Team Jamaica on the Road to Beijing' Reggae Charity Concert. Team Jamaica is
off to a Roots rocking start on the road to the annual Penn Relays in Philadelphia
this weekend, thanks to Reggae legend Cocoa Tea and his musical brethren who
rocked Brooklyn College’s Walt Whitman Theater last Sunday for the ‘Team
Jamaica on the Road to Beijing’ Reggae Charity Concert. Presented by Team
Jamaica Bickle and VP Records, scores of Reggae fans were treated to the drum
and bass sounds of the island, while raising much needed capital to fund
Jamaica’s track and field athletes at Penn, and on their journey to dominate the
XXIX Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, China this August.
