At least two of the major acts who were schedule to perform at the 'Reggae In the Valley' show left the venue without performing after a being disrespected by another artiste.

'The Messenger' Luciano and Anthony B left the venue after comments made by Lutan Fyah during his stint on stage.

During his performance, Luton Fire, who is a fairly young artiste in the music business, said "Big up Bounty Killer, yuh turn a lot of young youths into millionaires, and the Rastas are not doing anything for the youths."

However, shortly after he came off the stage and left the VIP area it was obvious that his statement angered other Rastafarians such as Capelton who left the VIP area along with his followers after Luciano and Anthony B.

But after much pleading and begging by promoter of the event, Fantan Mojah, for Capelton to grace the stage, the fireman agreed to the delight of the patrons.

During a break for a band change Fantan Mojah, told The STAR that he was not daunted by the slight hiccup and that he intends to turn the show into a yearly event.

Prior to turning down an offer for an interview with this reporter, 'the fireman' Capelton described the statement made by Lutan Fyah as a disrespect to Rastas in general.

"This is a rasta event and no man should come here to dis Rasta. Rastas are loving people so how a man fi come ah seh Rasta no do nothing fi nobody," the fireman was overheard saying to some of his followers.
