Grammy winner Shaggy to perform at New York State Fair
He is among the top three streamed reggae artists of all time on Spotify, along with Bob Marley and Sean Paul.
Shaggy's first platinum album dropped in 1995 and took over radio waves with his platinum-selling single 'Boombastic.' The song marked his first appearance on the Billboard Top 100 as it peaked at No. 3 overall. His star power continued to climb in 2000 with the release of the six-time platinum-selling record 'Hot Shot.' The album boasted a pair of mega hits, including 'It Wasn't Me' and 'Angel' – both of which reached No. 1 in the United States and were certified platinum three times.
All concerts are included in the price of admission, which will go on sale later this summer.

Lady Gaga Reaches An Important Milestone For The First Time In Her Career
'Die With a Smile' doesn't sound quite like anything else in the discographies of either Lady Gaga or Bruno Mars. Both artists have looked to the past for inspiration before, but neither of them had encapsulated the exact feeling that the Grammy-winning smash conveys. Mars has come close with several of his vintage-sounding tunes, but the inclusion of a female voice makes 'Die With a Smile' not just different from the two stars' past work, but something truly special. In America, 'Die With a Smile' is still a massive hit, and this week both musicians must be celebrating its continued success as the track reaches a notable milestone. 'Die With a Smile' Finishes Its First Year As of this current period, 'Die With a Smile' has spent a full year on the Hot 100. This week marks its fifty-second on the ranking of the most consumed songs in the U.S. 'Die With a Smile' Slipped Outside the Top 10 Recently The track only recently fell outside of the top 10, where it had been living as it approached its first anniversary. This frame, the duet holds at No. 12, sitting just below the important tier. Lady Gaga's First One-Year Winner 'Die With a Smile' is Gaga's first song to make it to 52 weeks on the Hot 100. The tune became her longest-running success almost a month ago when it passed 'Just Dance,' her collaboration with Colby O'Donis, which introduced her to the world and helped reinvigorate interest in dance-pop well over a decade ago. That smash spent 49 weeks on the Hot 100 during its run. 'Die With a Smile' Remains a Radio Smash Radio is doing most of the work to keep 'Die With a Smile' on the Hot 100 and in such a lofty position. The track does fall slightly on the Radio Songs chart, dipping from No. 3 to No. 5, but that's still an impressive position for a title that has now racked up 52 stays on the all-genre airplay list. 'Die With a Smile' is a non-mover on both the Adult Pop Airplay and Adult Contemporary rankings, where it holds at Nos. 2 and 3, respectively. The Gaga/Mars hit single also makes it to 52 weeks on both of those lists. Will 'Die With a Smile' Slip Off the List Soon? Now that 'Die With a Smile' has made it to a full year on the Hot 100, it has to stay above No. 25, or else it will be removed. Billboard has a rule in place that states that after 52 weeks, tunes can't slip beneath that position. That's not a problem for most songs, which never make it to the landmark figure, and 'Die With a Smile' likely doesn't have to worry just yet, as it could continue to sit below the top 10—or even return to the highest area again—for several more weeks.

R&B Star Opens Up About Terrifying, Bloody Medical Episode: 'I Almost Died'
R&B star Tamar Braxton has revealed that she nearly died after experiencing a frightening health episode that resulted in several injuries over the weekend. The Grammy-nominated singer — one of the Braxton sisters — wrote in an update to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday that a friend found her 'in a pool of blood' with a fractured nose, some lost teeth and mobility issues on Sunday. 'I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can't even really talk anymore I'm so weak,' she wrote. She later continued, 'As the days go by the worse it is. ... 💔💔the way I look at life now is totally different. As my health is on the mend my mental journey begins… pray for me for real 💔💔💔💔I don't even know what happened to me 💔💔.' While it's unclear what led to the health scare, Braxton shared a post with the text 'Thank you God for waking me up today' just hours ahead of the update. Braxton has previously been open about her health, telling People magazine in 2021 that she 'chose to change' her life after surviving a suicide attempt the year prior. At the time, her then-boyfriend, David Adefeso, found her unresponsive while she was at her home with her son Logan (whom she shares with former husband Vincent Herbert) back in July 2020. 'That time of my life was so dark and so heavy,' she told the magazine. 'I didn't see how I was going to come out on the other side. I didn't even know that there was another side.' She later continued, 'Most people think, 'Oh, she went to a hotel, probably took a bunch of drugs, was on a binge.' It didn't happen like that. It was just everyday life, trying to figure out how to get through the day and then ...' In December 2022, she revealed that she was taken to the hospital after experiencing flu-like symptoms, noting that she couldn't breathe and her chest was 'on FIRE' at the time. She described the experience as worse than having COVID-19 before advising her followers to 'be careful' during the holidays.
