Maxi Priest Calls for Continued Support for Hurricane Melissa Relief

Following the release of his comeback single “Feel So Alive” with dancehall superstar Sean Paul, London-based reggae fusion legend Maxi Priest is continuing his mission to support his beloved Jamaica in the wake of Hurricane Melissa.

Maxi, together with his label distributor, Intercept Music, has partnered with The Bob and Rita Marley Foundation Relief Fund on GoFundMe to raise vital funds in support of Sean Paul’s foundation and Food For The Poor Jamaica. Sean Paul has pledged to match every dollar raised, up to $100,000, doubling the impact of every contribution.

Intercept Music has already made a financial contribution, and Maxi has shared a heartfelt video appeal to fans worldwide, urging continued support:

“One of Jamaica’s greatest gifts to the world has always been music. It’s how we share love, unity, and hope. But right now, our beautiful island needs us. Hurricane Melissa has left so many of our brothers and sisters in need of help and support. Music and unity have the power to heal and rebuild. Let’s all do our part to make Jamaica ‘Feel So Alive’ again.”

Ralph Tashjian, founder and chairman of Intercept Music, says, “Intercept Music is honored to join forces with Maxi Priest, Sean Paul, and The Bob and Rita Marley Foundation to assist with raising awareness and funding for the plight of Jamaica. Jamaica has given us all so much with her music, food, and culture. It’s imperative that we do our part to restore the island’s glory and her people.”

Maxi has also collaborated with The British Chamber of Commerce Guyana (BritCham Guyana) to raise additional funds for hurricane relief. The Chairman of BritCham Guyana, Faizal Khan, and Maxi Priest dedicated the networking segment of the BritCham Guyana Business Forum & Networking Event at Chelsea Football Club’s Stamford Bridge in London to a special fundraising initiative.

Donations are still urgently needed. Maxi encourages all lovers of Jamaica and Jamaican music to give what they can to The Bob and Rita Marley Foundation Relief Fund on GoFundMe at https://gofund.me/4c619748f.
