Those who thought that a concert featuring controversial dancehall artiste, Tommy Lee Sparta, is off the books must think again.
The show was originally set for Sunday, February 16, in Portsmouth but Sparta was a no show.
However, main organizer of the event, Cabral Douglas, vowed that he will be performing on Sunday February 23 instead.
Douglas told DNO on Monday that Sparta had difficulties getting flights into Dominica after he was held in Jamaica on charges of taking part in a lottery scam.
“Yes the concert was postponed to next week Sunday,” He said, “Because he got out of custody very late.”
Douglas stated that he had the artiste’s flight changed three times but this despite all the effort he still could not make it in time for the concert.
According to him, the artiste has already apologized to Dominicans for not appearing and will hopefully be here on February 23rd.
He said tickets for last Sunday are valid and holders of tickets who cannot make it on the 23rd can get a refund this week.
Douglas described the postponement as “disappointing for patrons, myself included.”
The concert had sparked opposition from religious groups on the island who said Sparta’s music promotes violence and had called for a boycott.
A protest was held to drive home the groups’ discontent on the matter.
In light of the new concert date, Chairperson of the Northern Pastors Fellowship Pastorm Joseph Benjamin, said that a meeting is planned to discuss the organization’s next move.
“Well again we are standing firm against the concert and we are continuing to stand against the concert … we as pastors are to meet again together and discuss what will be our next step forward,” he said.
He accused the artiste of being in the “illuminati where one sells his soul to the devil for money and fame.”
He said such influence is not good for the young people of Dominica.
“We rejoice to the fact that God does answer prayer, and that God is working on our behalf and he will finish what he has started,” he said.
Sparta, whose real name is Leroy “Junior” Russell, has described his musical style as “Gothic Dancehall.”
Aye ah madsquad deh now!!!U don kno tommylee bigup,dem man tryin to stop ur food!!Be strong bro cause d system not easy!!!One love !!!Cya wait for d show….Remember money make enemy!!Sparta Yow!!!!!
oh please give the man a break
oh please give the man a break
I was looking forward to that show, but change of date to the 23rd, the day of so many popular activities in town. This show is a sure flop……Yu might as well cancel, plz take ma advice……
See them people make noise about Tommy Lee… I have to agree his music can SOUND a bit demonic…But that doesnt mean the man is a Lajahbless…That is juss for Entertainment…People take things wayy too literally !
You have a problem. This obviously includes your mind. You call him a good person? A man whose name means the evil one and who sings those type of songs? What does it take for you to observe that? Who is so stupid so as to invite him to D/ca and welcome him to perform among them?
You idiot. you sound like the man is your next door neighbour and you know him sooo well. Who cares what the man calls himself. Do your research and ull see its jus an act.
What about the shoot out in portsmouth on sunday night. And the suspected fire bom .
why don’t you make a gospel music night bring over some good gospel messages to the ppl of DA than after you have to case out demons fm young ppl think of it listen to the people not your mind cause you will regret after !
tommy lee came to ST Vincent bout 1yr ago and u know what happen it was the devil making probs in the youth in vincy a pastor had to case out a demon out of some young children life so that’s what you bring to the ppl of Dominica think again !
I heard about that. They do not take those things seriously. If he comes, feel sorry for those who will be attending this concert. It is obvious the organizers do not care two hoots. I hope they get caught in the melee of evil which will be their punishment.
bad mind
my question to u douglas y are u so determined for the )uncle demon( to put foot here and i know u are reading this i know roosie douglas didnt die a natural death and u should know what i mean
Please people stop crying down the man.
Understand what going tommy le sparta doing that to make his enemy fear him and creat an illusion nothing more. I agree if you say some lyrics promote some nonsense like crime.
THE MAN MUSIC AINT NUTHIN DIFFERENT FROM HOLLY FILMS THEY HAVE THE SAME DEAMON CHARACTERS AND MESSAGES
tHE SAME FILM THE SAME MUSIC THE SAME MUSIC AND ALL THE OTHER STUFF U DO DAILY HAVE DEAMON. LOL
Tommy will come and perform then go about his business and Dominica will be the same. Tommy cannot turn Dominica into no devil country. The devil is all around us everyday. If you are a real christian you would know that.
half of then is the devil with their fear mongering. They need to go pick up them bible and pray for their own inequities and stop judging the man. If you really think he will turn our youth evil and demons and devils will plague dominica now and we are doomed then Really, Poor Dominica and no wonder we cant’ get anywhere in terms of development. If this is the kind of dumbfounded backward fearful mentality they teaching all you in church or wherever you lean it and in turn teach to your children. Then Really, Poor Dominica. Not because of Tommy, but because of the people who live here and influence us to think and speak and do ignorance without clear unbiased thinking. Seems like you all have no faith in yourselves and in the God you all praise. Like this man has power over you. The man not about them sceen.
But what is that man douglas problem,man God will hold you accountable for what you bringing in the country and anyone that goes to this concert is just like tommee lee himself.so much evil in the country.ALL U WANT MORE DEMONS IN THE COUNTRY;If a man singing about demons and nobody cannot kill his soul what u think he is?Douglas it seem that you are just satanic like him that is why you will bring him down but God will deal with you.
Well said. Its one thing to have bad mangoes, is another thing to import them.
In the name of JESUS!! He shall not set foot in Dominica.
Benji hush you mouth before I tell people what you did to me, am still struggling to forgive you….SMH
do tell……….
Tommy Lee concert is the same day with our Local wet fete….People support local and come get wet and have fun.We not supporting NO EVIL in our sweet Dominica.
and wet fete is? NExt to debauchery and smut its not a preety site. thats why school children not allowed. Ive seen videos from the last one with the foreigner and the girl in the pool with everybody cheering them on. Support local? Ill be in possie
pastors you mean GOD gave us free will and you all want to take that from the people who do you all think you are.its peoples choice if they want they will go.how comes you all never protest against homosexuality.
“God is working on our behalf and he will finish what he has started,” . Tommy lee not coming no where!!!!!!!!!!
We’re really in the closing days of time. Man can’t even determine good from bad anymore they still want barabas they still reject Jesus Christ. I want you to know this that no stone will be left unturned, birds of a feather all fluck together there’s an evil motive in your head which you want to accomplish come what may you wonna give rise to satanism here but God forbid, The gates of hell shall not prevail.
But what is really wrong with cabral? You yet to realize that God just isn’t in this choice that you’ve made. How hard can your head be, how evil can your mind itself be, lkisten to God, listen to the voice of the people, we’ve got enough happening here already. Do you want God to send his judgement and wrath on this land before you realise. The way i see it is not that you don’t know that you should not invite such an artist as this to Dominica, but just that you just wonna add more salt to injuries and more burden on the poor donkies back if you don’t refrain from it you’ll surely pay for this your evil sins and for your evil compliances.
Why this man? Why invite him to Dominica, knowing his reputation? You organizers of this concert, I feel sorry for you. You are aware that this man is a satanic follower and in view of the words of his songs.
You have heard he was arrested for an illegal activity and you still welcome him? Shame on you! You are selling your souls to the devil including your country and other nationals.
Where he goes the devil follows since he is a satanic worshipper.
You who have children of your own care not for the youths of Dominica and the bad effect this man will have on them. You are others who have condemned yourselves. You will pay for this.
Lord, please hear the cry and prayers of Dominicans who oppose this man coming to Dominica and singing at the concert. Please drive your enemies far from Dominica; do not let them in.
Rebuke and punish those who should know better as Christians and who allow him to travel to Dominica to perform for the almighty dollars. You do know, Lord, the love of money is the root of all evil.
Lord, you know the organizers only care about their pockets; not fellow Dominicans while caring not who they bring into your Christian country. We beg of you, through Your Most Precious Blood to prevent this from occurring. Thank you Lord! All praise, glory and honor be to You! Amen!
“spartan angel i believe you’re my savior. in my time of needs. spartan angels tell me why the clouds of darkness are up in the sky? i see the angels he lead them to your door,no escape now, nor mercy no more.” big up tommy
Are you not a baptized Christian who has been attending church? You have badly swayed from the truth. You are certainly condemning yourself. He is your savior of the earth who is worthy of nothing.
The Savior of the world is Our Lord Jesus Christ whom you and this man will have to face for your eternal judgment.
fool
clown
Boy hush your SKIN mouth dere, what the mother I seeing dere nuh?? We badly off papa
Good for evil and vice versa it seems SMH

Yes and thats just the tip of the iceburg. Pastor Boasta Joseph. I hear they going to buy a helicopter for him to land on his castle.
God will hold aluu accountable don’t worry.Is that all u want for our country?
I hope you know God will hold you accountable too. Judge not lest ye be judged himself.

May the righteous judgement of God visit you today. The word of the Lord declares : touch not my anointing, do his prophet no harm” Let the Hig praises of God be on our lips
false prophets that living high on all you 10%. Religion is a business. they milking and brainwashing you.
Let it be known, that tommy lee Sparta will never set foot on this island of Dominica. I decree and declare that as a servant of the living God has already won the victory in this. Dominica God still answers prayers.
amen amen amen. Tommy Lee Sparta will never set foot on our land if it means that we have to pray Douglas out too we will because it seems that they are brothers.
You going and work a high science there man, you going by the lady ? lol
You sound soooo dumb!! let it be known?? lmao. IDK why all you like to use bible and god as a tool for your bad mind
AMEN!!!!! In Jesus name and may all those who speak against the men and women of God may His righteous judgement come upon them.
This is a perfect example of brainwash and slave mentality. Using God to spread their badmind. why you using god to wish bad for people.
Ala sor let take our neighhood watch to a next level. Lets seat with our youngstars to reason out. Even if we do supports his lyrics and mannerism Lets not blame hime for what is already existing. My friends home and abroad would you believe that we would ever think that all the evill that is taking place in portsmouth we should sppend time scapegoating another? We need come clean with each other. put down the weapon of mass distruction”the tongue” and embrace each family member So they may see the good that we do and give the father praise
Home,
No one is blaming the artiste for the violence that is already taking place in Portsmouth. The argument is that bringing in such an artiste whose music unleashes demonic activities should not be allowed into our country.
What we often fail to realise is that we fight against principalities and powers, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
An artiste of this nature, when he sings the songs that he has so gladly devoted to the devil, is in fact releasing negative energies into the atmosphere. What we may find as a result is that people who attend such a concert may come under demonic influence and may not even realise it; that the venue (Portsmouth and by extension Dominica) becomes becomes a breeding ground for demonic devices, since they are welcomed here.
Do you think that is the type of Dominica we would like to live in? I doubt.
so before you make any unfounded argument, give serious thought to the implications
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? Tommy Lee would unleash demonic activities in Dominica? REALLY? YOU People deserve to stay poor. Cus if this is the crap you believe and think, Jah know what you all would do if you had the money and power to really do things. Funny how religion has brain washed us here to a point where we live in complete fear. To think this jamaican artist will have such influence and power over our lives here in Dominica. We are truely lost. I hope this isnt a young person who speaking such old crap.
To: Dummynicans again
Your anme says a whole lot about you and you have confirm just that in your writing. If you were spiritual minded you would realize the power of the spoken words. The devil knows music and he understands the power of such. You have placed yourself (and many like you) in a “dummy can” this mean you lack wisdom and understand. The word of God says “My people perish for lack of Knowledge”. And you “Dummynicans again” is and will persih if you don’t come out of your state of dumbness
Really Dominicans????That you all are so foolish to believe someone can release the devil to take over the country? I thought Dominica was a Christian country, stop being so ignorant. God is all powerful, some little Jamaican artiste cannot take over God’s country.
He won’t stop blessing you
What he’ll do is keep testing you
And a begger is no less than you
Cause’ one day it could be you..
So get your folks together for some church y’all
Some good music and prayer in service won’t hurt y’all
Even if you don’t believe in the preacher
It’s bound to be a few things she could teach you.
We’ve come this far by faith
Pick up your pace and don’t you be late
I’m hear to tell ya about the good news
Somethin’ about the path that we choose y’all
Wisdom has built this house now
Integrity will bring your pride out
If you know how to pray the situation out
Prayer is the answer..There is no doubt
Im sure tommy Lee saying his prayers too.
The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 1 Corinthians 2:14 (NIV)
When one don’t understand the power of the tongue then you say what ever you want but when you know that ” Life and death are int he power of the tongue” then we all understand much better and our vision is further then just a feel good moment.
Prayer, still Works! Monday we held it together and..Wednesday we had stormy weather and..Friday we prayed it all better and..Sunday we heard the news..
Prayer still works Prayer still works Prayer prayer still works.
I am a big fan and cannot wait for the show, i saw the sign at the cinema, thank you Cabral for bringing some a great dancehall artiste to Dominica, with his new gothic dancehall style.
Wait to see, if he performs in Portsmouth, if the roof will not fall on your head.
In the name of Jesus Christ – may the power of the Holy Spirit arrest you – so that you will not ever see this man perform in Dominica or anywhere else. May the Spirit of the Most High arrest you and all others who are in support of the Devil and his plans in Jesus name. May His arrest bring you to the Cross of Jesus Christ – this i pray in Jesus name!!! Amen
skerrit 4 pm _ educate yourself seems u living in the darkness your soul already in the hands of lucifer so u cannot speak otherwise __and that goes to all who support this demon tooo
u know benji
You people need to stop judging Tommy Lee and check yourselves so u may enter heaven, stop your nonsense and leave tommy lee alone who are u to judge other people, only God can judge.
Possie for Jesus ?
When BJ ………, allyuh were praying ?
When Villas getting built allyuh were praying ?
When Haitians getting killed in the open sea like produce allyuh praying ?
Set of hypocrites. Allyuh religious people are the worst thing to happen to DA.
and now de earthquake, we are praying
May the righteous judgement of Jehovah come upon you right now in Jesus name! May your knees bow at the cross right now in Jesus name
Pastor bj accusing people lol my god lol hahhah :lol:. sir u should be the last talkin.corect me if am wrong.wasnt it that pastor that had all these acusations against him years ago and left the church and run lol
Was BJ not JB
Cabral is determine to bring that MONSTER to Dominica to really spoil our young people. But thank God our young people know better and will do the right thing boycott this show. God is in control and dose everything well.
Cabral just want to cause confusion among our people and when things start happening they behaving violently, they will want to blame the Prime Minster for this. Typical Dominicans…. what a SHAME
So what happen yesterday Sparta was not there.
Who cares what old people and hypocrites think? when sparrow come down to sing lagarance for you all, no one protests. when triple kay and the rest of the noise making bands are chosen to sing their lagarance for the nation during national festivities, no one protests. So really what is the problem? He will come, sing for us and leave. End of story. On a different note, i call for a national boycott of all religious functions that impose their religion by blasting their teachings through loud speakers and disturbing communities.
May Jehovah have mercy on you, he is good to you to give you life and sound mind – then you use it against his name and glory. But his mercy will not always thrive with you.
u got the right name dummy its a shame how some of us are sostupid
All I will say to you Mr. Dummynicans that any one who stand in the way of God will be crush including you. Before it is to late surrender your life to the one who created you before it is too late.For further information Tommy Lee will not be performing on the 23rd of February in Jesus name.
Can never ever ever go on
You will be surprised.
Amen pastors we rallying out full force, chanting out the demon possess ones, omg the devil is at work in dominica but where iniquitity abound faith much more abound. Father in the name of Jesus Christ cancel that flight, keep that tommylee from setting feet on our shores. Father please hear us and take control.
So All the crime in our sister island Jamaica we must join with the pastors there to take the demon of Why did our sister island gave him a licence? My friends What would the would do without all these characters including us? Lets unit our selves and one more thing All of us have a demon at home we seat on the couch and enjoy him. So many horror movies. Do you thing mr. walks on the streets of JA and what do his people and the Government do? what to the Religious council do? My GOD we believe These are the sign of the time.
Cabral was on the news saying that the changed the ticket and that the guy was heading to Barbados then Dominica. whatever deal he made to ensure that this man gets to Dominica will not come to pass. Prayers will continue. Portsmouth for Jesus, hear the battle cry, Portsmouth for Jesus we will fight and not give in.
In the Name of JESUS Christ of Nazareth – Cabral and the devil’s plan shall not prevail. For the prayers of the righteous availeth much. Oh! children of the Most High God arise and doh let the Devil and his Agents intimidate us. The word of the Lord say the he hears the prayers of the righteous but the prayers. Don,t respond with what we think use the sword “THE WORD” when responding
Lol look bowdelle
