By Villij News Staff | June 12, 2025 

LOS ANGELES — Reggae icon Buju Banton delivered an electrifying set at the BET Experience Fan Fest on Saturday, June 7, thrilling fans with a high-energy performance that highlighted the cultural power of dancehall and roots reggae. 

The performance, held at the Los Angeles Convention Center as part of BET Awards Weekend 2025, drew thousands of music lovers who sang along to hits like “Champion,” “Wanna Be Loved” and “Til Shiloh.” With his unmistakable voice and commanding presence, Banton proved once again why he’s a global ambassador of Jamaican music. 

But let’s be honest — Miami got the real Buju experience first. 

Just weeks earlier, the Grammy-winning artist took the stage at Best of the Best Music Fest at Bayfront Park in downtown Miami, performing for a packed crowd waving Caribbean flags and dancing to every beat. From “Untold Stories” to “Driver A,” his Miami performance was a spiritual, sweat-soaked celebration of Caribbean pride — and Villij News was there to capture it all.

Villij Tip: If you’re ever in the same city as Buju Banton, don’t think twice. His live shows are more than just performances — they’re moments of movement, memory and meaning.
