Beenie Man
The inspiration for Beenie Man’s latest single
Fun in the Sun came to him while he was visiting his mother’s gravesite. Beenie Man’s late mother, fondly called Mama Lilieth, died last September 2020.
Even though the Dancehall veteran was working assiduously on the album,
Simma, it seems he is still grieving for his mother. He made the revelation to the Jamaica Star during a welcoming party hosted on the social networking app Clubhouse.
He said that he constantly seeks to be in her presence and often ventures down to St. Elizabeth, where he built a two-storey house dedicated to her. Sadly, Lilieth Sewell died after recovering from a series of strokes. The two were very close and during her funeral Beenie Man, whose real name is Anthony Moses Davis, briefly lost consciousness.
