Fresh off its 35th anniversary on Dirty Sixth, Flamingo Cantina hosts its biggest act of 2026. Kingston son Keron Salmon, 41, paid his dues starting right after the millennium when he moved to Fort Lauderdale. Twin decades later in Miami, working with co-producer and collaborator Damian Marley, Kabaka Pyramid produced second long-player The Kalling, with guest spots from Stephen Marley and Buju Banton among others. The Jamaican chart-topper thus nabbed an American Grammy for Best Reggae Album. The singer’s clean, clear delivery acts almost like a human Auto-Tune, a perfectly intelligible blend of reggae, dancehall, and hip-hop. Next time you’ll have to catch Kabaka Pyramid at a festival. – Raoul Hernandez
