Why this recording

Capleton was on the bill at the Dutch Sun Splash Reggae Festival on July 13, 2025, the same day as Alpha Blondy and Teejay, according to Reggaeville. The 42-minute video, posted by the Reggaeliveconcerts channel, credits Team Reggae Live Concerts for the footage and Frits Panday for mastering the live sound. It also folds in extra footage supplied by Viral Media, making it an edit drawn from several sources rather than a single shot from the crowd.

Live concert film of Capleton at the Sun Splash Reggae Festival, captured by Team Reggae Live Concerts with sound mastered by Frits Panday. Nicknamed “King of Fire” and “King Shango,” the Jamaican artist is one of the most fiery voices of conscious reggae and dancehall: since the 1990s he has championed a militant, spiritual roots reggae marked by his scorching stage energy. This capture documents a high-intensity festival performance in which Capleton rallies the crowd with his Rastafari anthems and recognizable flow. A valuable live full concert for fans of reggae, dancehall and festival captures, it conveys the fervour of one of the great ambassadors of the Jamaican scene in Europe. A reference document for understanding the live power of contemporary roots reggae.
