Nov. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- West Palm Beach, FL-Internationally renowned reggae super star Papa San, who achieved worldwide fame for his DJ skills and his dancehall lyrics, will grace the stage of Royal Palm Beach High School on November 19th in a benefit concert for Sonshine Family Ministries in West Palm Beach. Papa San’s (aka “The Marathon Man”) rise to world acclaim began in the 1980’s as a teenager. His fame skyrocketed with the release of such international chart topping songs like, ‘Legal Rights’, ‘Strange’ and ‘Maddy Maddy Cry’. With hits holding notable positions in the top 10 spots longer than any other Reggae artist to date; San gained international notoriety as one of dancehall reggae’s superstars.

In the late 1990’s Papa San’s musical direction changed as life’s experiences directed his desires to develop a truly personal and a deeper relationship with God.

Today, Papa San now known as Papa Son is on tour promoting his new Album “My Story Revolution”, featuring the hit single, “Devotion”.
