The canceled event, which had been dubbed Tape Measure, after one of the tracks from her Emancipated sophomore album, was set for November 25 and was to be staged by promoters, Start Di Fun Entertainment.

Two weeks ago, Ray Alexander of Khool International Spice’s booking agency, had announced that the company would be “taking bookings for 2023 for Spice.

Yesterday, Start Di Fun Entertainment which had announced the postponement of the Tape Measure show on November 8, due to a “recent occurrence, which is beyond our control”, but that there would “only be a change of date”, excitedly shared the news of Spice’s return for the new show dubbed Start Di Fun Music Festival: Tape Measure Edition.

“Full excitement, Fully Anticipated🔥🔥🔥🔥 The Queen Will Be Here November 25th Get Your Early bird tickets now dm for more info or online on Tickets Plus,” the promoters noted.

Spice, whose given name is Grace Hamilton, had written about the Cayman event in an Instagram post following her hospitalization in November.

“Cayman I Know you was up next, for the 25th of this month however I’ll see you at a later date. Any further information needed there’s always a contact in my bio. THE QUEEN LOVES YOU ALL,” she had noted.

The 40-year-old had also joked that based on her condition there would be “no more jumping off speaker boxes” which, for many years, had been a feature of her stage show performance routine.

The Jim Screechy artist had also used the opportunity to apologize to event promoters whose shows had been postponed in order to facilitate her recovery.

“To all the promoters that has a confirmed booking with me please accept my humble apology,” she had stated.
