Jamaican music icon Vybz Kartel has recently stirred up political buzz by hinting at a possible run for Parliament in the next election. In a candid statement, Kartel shared that he possesses a vision and experiences that he believes others might never fully understand.
Vybz Kartel expressed a strong desire to be in a position where he can significantly impact the lives of those who have supported him throughout his turbulent journey.
After spending 13 years in prison for a murder conviction, Kartel was recently acquitted and released alongside his co-accused.
His time behind bars has taken a toll on his health, evident from his altered appearance due to Graves’ disease, which has caused noticeable swelling in his face and neck.
Despite these challenges, Kartel emerged from prison with remarkable vigor. That very night, he hit the party scene and has since been on a relentless media tour.
The singer also revealed plans to return to the stage, announcing his first post-incarceration concert for December, though he kept the exact date under wraps.
“The World Boss” urged his fans to prepare their funds in anticipation of the announcement. The most startling revelation came when Kartel spoke about his potential political aspirations.
“I know it is out of the blue but I am thinking about running for member of parliament in the next elections.”
“I have seen a lot; I now want to be in a position where I can change the lives of my people,” he said. This unexpected political ambition has left fans and observers alike intrigued and curious about what lies ahead for the music star.
