Clad in his Rebel Unit outfit, Steele emerged on stage at the Tru Juice Rebel Salute 15th Anniversary Celebration with a burst of energy. Blazing the lyrics of “Betta Mus Come”, the impact from the seasoned performer was immediately evident as the thousands in attendance waved banners and sang along with him.
Backed by Tony Rebel’s very competent band, Team Band, and harmonized by the ladies of the singing group LMJ, Steele wasted little time in delivering his current MVP top ten hit “New World”. The song, which has grown in popularity, again drew a huge response from the audience and is a true testament to the never ending efforts being put forth by Steele and his management team to excel to the highest level possible.
