Mavado
The mother of Dancehall artist Mavado, Elizabeth ‘Ms. Pinny’ Gordon, died suddenly at a hospital in Kingston last night, while the sentencing of his son Dantay Brooks has been postponed to March 19 after he was convicted for murder earlier this year.
“It was sudden, she wasn’t sick, so right now, this kinda sudden so the whole ah Cassava Piece feel it. People ah go miss Ms. Pinny, is a woman everybody love,” one source told
DancehallMag.
Three years ago, Mavado released a tribute song,
Mama, on the JA Productions’ Lighthouse riddim, to his mother where he sang that “man never lef yu on a boardside on the Gully, mi tek yu out”, an admission of his humble beginnings before superstardom.
