It's official, Mr Twitter himself, Tanto Blacks, is gearing up for his highly anticipated mega birthday bash dubbed 'Follow Me @ Tanto Blacks On Twitter' which is slated for Saturday, March 12 on the grounds of GC Foster College, St Catherine.

Tanto who got his big break on the popular Magnum Kings and Queens Of Dancehall television series, has come a long way since making the phrase "Twitter" a local slang, and has decided what better time to celebrate his accomplishments than on his birthday.

"Right now the ting tun up, the fliers dem print and already start distribute all over. We even have some UWI, UTech, Mico Teachers College and GC Foster College girls endorsing the ting, and over the weekend we will start release the artiste drops dem too."
