Reggae luminary Beres Hammond is addressing a social media security breach head-on, issuing a public apology after his official Facebook account was hacked and used to circulate content he says does not reflect his values, brand, or beliefs. The veteran singer moved swiftly to reassure supporters, confirming that while the digital setback is being handled, preparations remain firmly on course for April’s highly anticipated Love & Harmony Cruise.
The disclosure came on Sunday after Hammond became aware of unauthorised posts appearing on his Facebook page without his knowledge or consent. In response, the reggae icon turned to his verified Instagram account to clarify the situation and calm concerns among fans. “My family! It has been brought to my attention that my Facebook page has been posting content that does not align with anything I believe in nor stand for. The page has been hacked, unfortunately,” he wrote, offering a heartfelt apology to supporters affected by the confusion.
Hammond confirmed that his team is actively working to regain control of the compromised account, adding that Instagram will serve as his sole official social media platform in the interim. “This will be my only active social media account for the time being,” he noted, thanking fans for alerting him to the breach and for their continued support. The incident follows a broader wave of reported security issues across Meta platforms, with users flagging suspicious login alerts and attempted credential breaches.
Despite the disruption, Hammond’s musical calendar remains untouched. The reggae great is set to headline the Love & Harmony Cruise this April, joined by an all-star lineup including Busy Signal, Romain Virgo, Tanya Stephens, Max Priest, Pinchers, and Agent Sasco. As his team works to restore his Facebook presence, fans are encouraged to rely on verified Instagram updates—while counting down to an unforgettable celebration of reggae music at sea.
