Dancehall legend Vybz Kartel kicked off the European leg of his Worl’ Boss Tour with a historic return at Summerjam Festival in Germany—his first performance in the country in over 20 years. The “Fever” hitmaker delivered an electrifying set, thrilling more than 25,000 fans.

Dressed in a black Adidas tracksuit with black and white sneakers, Kartel later switched into a Germany national football jersey, continuing his tradition of wearing custom jerseys representing each city on the tour, a signature touch since his release from prison.

Kartel opened his set with the iconic “Thank You Jah,” backed by MC Nuffy and ZJ Chrome, drawing loud applause from the sold-out crowd. The tour now heads to Amsterdam, where Kartel is set to perform at Ziggo Dome on Monday, July 7.

Meanwhile, the dancehall icon is rumored to be among the guest features on Travis Scott’s upcoming album, Jackboys 2. As part of the promo run, Scott reportedly gifted custom Jackboys-branded Lamborghinis to several artists, including Kartel—fueling speculation about his involvement. “If you don’t know who he is, he’s a dancehall legend,” Travis reportedly said.

Beyond speculation, several sources have listed Kartel among the confirmed collaborators, alongside names like 21 Savage, Waka Flocka Flame, GloRilla, and more.
