In the face of mounting criticism and the 'Artiste Ban' domino effect currently sweeping CARICOM, Dancehall bad boy Mavado seems to be steadfast in keeping his career afloat.

Mavado who recently performed in Dominica surprised everyone by delivering a squeaky clean set, free of profanity and any incidents of violence.

According to Val Cuffy the event promoter, "Mavado delievered a very professional set and proved all his detractors wrong to the point that he even had the patrons singing every line of his songs"

"Hopefully St Vincent, Grenada, Guyana, Trinidad and all the other CARICOM countries will let sense and fairness prevail and allow Mavado to perform in those islands where he has thousands of fans." - He added

Even though many were petitioning for a ban on the artiste, Dominica's Tourism Minister Ian Douglas Friday said a ban on Mavado would not be in keeping with the spirit of CARICOM, adding that he is a CARICOM national and has not yet committed any offence in Dominica.
