The night included rhythm specialist Sly and Robbie, Marcia Griffith, Rita Marley and Erica Newell who all helped kicked the night off in Shepherds Bush.
However while performing ‘Pull up to my Bumper’ Grace turned around and showed her fishnet cover bumper to the audience !!! I know, I know but she’s got a sense of humour LMAO!!!!
