Dancehall Singer Marcy Chin Donates Tablets To Students

Dancehall singer Marcy Chin recently donated six tablets to students from her community of Kencot in Kingston.

Concerned about the impact that the covid-19 pandemic has had on the lives of many including students, Marcy said she felt the need to give back to assist with the education of the nation’s most vulnerable.

“It has been a long time dream of mine to nourish my community in some way and I thought that contributing to the children’s educational wellbeing would be an excellent start,” she said.  “The tablets will help to keep them connected to what is happening in the world. It’s easy to carry around and it feels a lot more personal and much simpler for children to use than a typical computer.”

The six students who benefitted from Chin’s donation attend neighboring primary schools.

Marcy’s Warning freestyle, which took aim at pedophiles, rapists, and predators, was released as a song after a positive response.

“I spoke up because I am a woman and an injustice to one woman is an injustice to all women.  I, like most women, feel targeted.  The frequency of these incidents in recent times, have started to incite fear among our women and I wanted to shout from atop my lungs that we should not live in fear. Instead, we should take our protection in our own hands. Fear keeps us docile. Let us not give power to the predators by living in fear. Let us become more vigilant and protect ourselves in whatever ways that we can,” Chin said.

Marcy, whose real name is Lonique Chin, is one of Downsound Records’ newest female talents.  Her other releases include Lipstick and Nasty Love.
