In celebration of the diversity of the Brooklyn music scene, Jammins Entertainment presents the 5th Annual Brooklyn Music Festival. This year's festival is sure to please the Caribbean massive, featuring reggae, ska, rocksteady, and soul. Featured artists include Jamaica's Gully God, Mavado, perhaps the hottest dancehall artist to date, with hits like "One by One", "Delilah", "Gangsta for Life", and more. Also performing is the Queen of the Dancehall, Lady Saw, who collaborated with No Doubt in 2003 on the Grammy-winning "Underneath It All." These two stars will be joined on stage by their friends from the soca and dancehall worlds, including soca's leading lady Denise Belfon, carnival sensation Blaxx, reggae upstart M-Gee and Kuttra. There are also a few surprised in store for those who make it out for this night of hot tunes at the Pulse48 outdoor complex.

I have never in my life been to such a poorly organized, horrible event..and for a person who is very patient and easy going,,Trust..this means it had to be terrible. Forget a refund..I wish I could get back the 6 hours of my life I spent waiting for a performance I never saw. The flyer promoted multiple artist who were not present . Only one artist showed up , who finally hit the stage at 2am..so I heard because after 1am I finally felt tortured enough. I will never in life attend any event that that even resembles this hott mess! Do yourself a favor and skip it! For a event that's in it's 5th year they should get it right by now. What a nightmare.

I just want too say I will never attend that event again.... The flyer said it will start at 5pm ( which was a joke) cause NO ONE GOT ON STAGE UNTIL 2AM!!!! YES!! I SAID THAT 2AM!!! They had us waiting around the place, with miss info... We got there at 8ish.. The guy at the door said Movado is not coming iam like ok.. But its when the guard was like show wont start til 10 or 10:30 (what a dayum lie)!!! Lady Saw came on at 3:10AM!!!!!! She did her thing but we didnt need too wait that long!!! Very disappointed with the way this concert was put together...

It was a complete disaster. The people that were supposed to come never showed up, Mavado never showed up. After saying that gates open at 5pm, nothing really got started until after midnight!!! And that was only a few amateur performances, and a few 'dancers'. It was also disturbing to see little children performing almost at 1am. Unacceptable. Because it was standing room only, after a while my feet started to hurt. After 1am when Lady Saw still dIid not arrive and endless hours of waiting I had to leave. I couldn't take it anymore! My friend decided to wait and said that Lady Saw did not show up til 3am!!!!!!!! I really wished that Goldstar would give refunds because I saw absolutely no performances, wasted my time, and was tortured by endless waiting. Two words: NEVER AGAIN.

If I could rate this event a -0 I would. The gate at cpac was due to open at 5pm and due to the weather the staff moved the event inside. Then we were told we could go inside at 7pm, that didn't happen. To make a long story short the staff posted a message on the doors saying that" Movado would not be appearing because of management issues". Then an hour later they took the signs down. Needless to say we came all the way from Westchester to Brooklyn and did not see any artist. We left the cpac at 11pm after waiting 7hrs. I'm going to look into getting a refund and writing a complaint.
