Mavado and Drake for Good

Drake and Mavado

The bond between Jamaican star Mavado and Canadian singer/rapper Drake seem to be strengthening. Both artistes worked together as recently as April of this year in the music video "find our love" the hit new single from Drake with Mavado playing the villain and Drake the unfortunate good guy.
The two artiste have teamed up again this time for charity in Mavado's enclave Cassava Piece aka Gully Side. Drake donated, a couple of weeks ago, US$25,000 towards the building of a library on the gully side.
It was reported that Drake said ..."I had a great time when I was in Jamaica and the people of Cassava Piece showed me a lot of love. I just wanted to show back some love by helping out with Mavado's project on the Gullyside. It's a very positive move and something I am very happy to be a part of. Education is the key to life so to be able to assist in that process is very fulfilling."
Mavado is not new to charity ..the artiste is known to have made contributions to several charitable scenarios and obviously don't intend to stop any time soon. Since "the end" of the lyrical confrontations with his rival, his recent bike accident and the state of emergency in Kingston city..Mavado have taken a more sombre tone ..and churning out many a tunes that are of the calibre of an anthem for peace and unity. The artiste is
still without his US visa, but that does not seem to deter his efforts to make a positive impact on his surroundings.
