This is Kartel’s second foray into the rum market. Vybz Kartel and Corey Todd had a successful partnership with Street Vybz Rum which hit the market in 2008. Bottled by KRB Lea Rums in Kingston, production was stopped in 2011 because of a disagreement between Kartel and Todd. Kartel and Todd patched up their partnership and resurrected the Street Vybz brand in 2012. But since then, Street Vybz went off market again.
