I am not a criminal, says Potential Kidd

Dancehall artiste Potential Kidd has denied police reports that he is involved in the ongoing violence in the west Kingston area.

“I am not influencing any violence in Trench Town, the police themselves say is a misunderstand g. I went to the police station on Wednesday night, and I was questioned and released, I am not involved in any shootings, or any criminal activities. I am not a criminal, ah music mi say, but ah these things happen when ghetto youths a rise,” Potential Kidd said.

Potential Kidd is known for the breakout song, A Ya So Nice. The artiste, born Dwayne Taylor, is of a Trench Town address, and was listed among 34 other persons following last week’s shooting of four people in Coronation Market, which the police say is linked to a break-in at a wholesale owned by a popular Tivoli Gardens family.

On Monday, a man was killed and a woman injured behind the Kingston Public Hospital, and the police theorise these recent incidents of crime and violence are linked to an ongoing fight in the area.
