Walk good, Lieutenant Stitchie. 🇯🇲🕊️

Jamaica said farewell today to Dr. Cleveland Aman Laing, the gifted lyricist and cultural ambassador whose music carried Jamaican wordplay to audiences around the world.

Relatives, friends, fellow artistes, members of the clergy and political leaders gathered at the Louise Bennett Garden Theatre at the Ranny Williams Entertainment Centre in St. Andrew. Richie Stephens, Carlene Davis, Goddy Goddy, Papa San and Tivoli Gardens High School were among those who paid tribute.

Stitchie died in September at 60 after a prolonged illness following a stroke.

What’s the Stitchie song or lyric you’ll always remember?
