    The Last Time Marsheezy Came to NYC the Whole Ghetto Youths Crew Came Along

    Wayne Marshall celebrates the Release of his latest album TRU Colors in NYC tonight at the Delancey. Packed with hits  like “I Know,” “Stupid Money,” and the mega-posse cut “Go Hard,” TRU Colors is easily Marshall’s greatest album yet—a must have for reggae and dancehall fans worldwide. Here at Boomshots, we’ve been rocking with Marshall since 2000 and better—so we’ve anticipating this particular project for quite a while.

Go in. Video After The Jump…

    Ghetto Youths Presents The Maddest Collaboration Of The Summer—Seven The Hard Way
