This prestigious appointment comes as a recognition of Nesbeth's remarkable contributions to reggae music, which serves as a cultural cornerstone for the Caribbean diaspora worldwide.
With his captivating lyrics, soulful melodies, and powerful performances, Nesbeth has not only made a significant impact on the music industry but has also shaped socio-political norms in his country, being named by Rolling Stones Magazine as one the 60 most influential artiste in the Jamaica’s since Independence, his song “My Dream” having a “bridging impact” on the political landscape.

His music embodies the indomitable spirit of the Caribbean people, celebrating its rich cultural heritage and advocating for social justice and unity.
Nesbeth's selection as the Musical Ambassador for National Caribbean American Heritage Month cements his position among Caribbean icons whether in the area of music, sports, or academics. So great is his impact that he has been honored by members of both political parties at different times over the last eight years – being invited by the Prime Minister to perform during his inauguration ceremony and being immortalized on a bill board erected by the Opposition Minister Mark Golding in his constituency, Arnett Gardens. His journey from humble beginnings to international acclaim serves as an inspiration to millions, re-enforcing the limitless potential of Caribbean talent.
With hits like "My Dream," "Taste Victory," and "Success Story," Nesbeth has garnered widespread acclaim and international recognition.

His music reflects his personal experiences and the struggles of everyday people, resonating with audiences worldwide. Nesbeth lives by the principle of the 4D’s –Discipline, Determination, Dedication and Desire. His love for humanity is brought to life through The Nesbeth Outreach Foundation – a charity dedicated to uplifting the confidence and consciousness of youths through music education. The Artiste is a firm believer in hardwork and believes that, once it is ordained by God, he will achieve his goals “with or without the assistance of anyone”. At the same time, Nesbeth is a firm believer in the connectivity, reciprocity and the inter-dependence of humanity. “I will not take anything from anyone if I cannot give something to that person in return” is his abiding motto.
In her endorsement of Nesbeth, Dr. Claire A.
