Mikey Dread diagnosed with a Brain Tumor Saturday, October 27, 2007
For months now, many of you have made inquiries about the Internationally acclaimed Jamaican Reggae Legend Mikey Dread. Mikey believes that it is important that his fans/friends/ and supporters know about his current health condition and the treatment he is currently undergoing, and what has happened to him since July, 2007 There is certainly good news coming out of the DATC camp. The good news is that Monika's and Mikey's son was born healthy and strong on October 12, 2007 and he will run "Dread at the Controls "in the future.
The bad news is that Mikey Dread has been diagnosed with a Brain Tumor. He is in the care of the best Doctors at Duke University in and is undergoing chemotherapy. Mikey is working towards recovery and does not give up his faith in God. God is watching out for him.

Thanks Jagga. Knowing Mickey dread, I can only wish him and family all the best. I remember him at JBC and coming to Portland with his Cortina back in the days. I remember his "dread at the control days" when he would spin the wicked music with Mikey White and Ralph Mckenzie etc. I remember the rave when Barber Saloon and them tune did buss.
I say him a few years ago at a Titchfield reunion and he remained a very cool and grounded person. I hope he get's throught this.
