Dancehall deejay Skillibeng was a guest artist at Drake’s 36th birthday bash on Monday, October 24.
In a clip making rounds on social media, the entertainer who has become one of the most sought-after acts out of Jamaica in the last two years, was heard performing Crocodile Teeth to a packed audience at Sexy Fish in Miami.
Interestingly, the nightspot’s owners changed its name to ‘Sexy Gyal’ to accommodate the shindig.
Popular Jamaican Soundsystem Stone Love played at the event, and Drake recounted how one of their mixes changed his life.
“It changed my life, I listen to it everyday of my life. I listen to it to calm me down, I listen to it to reflect. Stone Love. The legendaray sound. Big up,” Drake said.
