The ‘Heartless’ man, given name Leshorn Whitehead. who has no mercy for crime and violence, has ended 2023 on a bang, and could reclaim his former glory on the reggae music tracks in 2024.

“All I can say is that after a break from local stage shows, it is clear as crystal that reggae fans are hungry for not only Fenda but the entire Chuck.”

“Looking back at the videos that capture my performances on stage is a testament that I am going in the right direction. Culture In The City in New York shows that reggae fans clearly want righteous music.”

On leaving the venue, there were hundreds asking when Chuck Fenda would be returning.

The Morant Bay, St. Thomas show cemented all that Chuck Fenda kept saying, that people from the four corners of Jamaica are craving for him.

“It was the Mayor of Morant Bay who called to say he wanted me to perform at their annual Christmas Tree Lighting, an event which had close to 20,000 people on December 17, 2023.”

The heavyweight deejay’s hour-long set was well received. His opening track was ‘Can’t Cool’, one he has used to whet his fans’ appetite for every show. Then he moved to ‘I Swear’ with the crowd singing along. Young and old were part of his act, singing and shouting for more Fenda. This gathered momentum as he moved to others, including ‘Hard Times’, ‘Gash Dem And Light Dem’, ‘Heartless’, and ‘Hurt Mi Heart’. He closed his set with ‘Coming Over Tonight’ and ‘The Prayer’.

It took Chuck Fenda some two hours to leave the venue which was choked with traffic and people.
Others heard about the deejay flocked Rub-A Dub Thursdays where he gave a well-coordinated 30-minute set. The songs included, ‘I Swear’, ‘Haffi Win’, ‘Hurt Mi Heart’, ‘Coming Over Tonight’ and ‘Heartless’.

Chuck Fenda was called a day before Sting’s 40th anniversary which had him performing in the Giants segment. In the end, music critics included him among the top three best performers.

Dressed in a green outfit, he could do no wrong that December 26 night. His tracks included ‘Haffi Win’, ‘I Swear’, ‘Gash Dem And Light Dem’, and ‘Heartless’. ‘Coming Over Tonight’ and ‘The Prayer’.

“In 2024, I will be promoting my ‘Eternal Fire’ album. I’m also looking forward to tour Europe, US and the Caribbean.” he added.
