September 1, 2026

Tarrus Riley is sending condolences to the family of a 93-year-old fan whom he serenaded with his hit song, “She’s Royal,” in the Cayman Islands last year.

The touching encounter happened after Marlena requested a money pull-up during Riley’s performance at the Roots Rock Reggae Concert last March.

Via his Instagram Story, Riley shared a clip from the performance while reminiscing about their memorable encounter.

“She’s Royal” is featured on Riley’s debut album, Parables. To date, the 18-year-old track has amassed more than 153 million views on YouTube, cementing its status as one of reggae’s enduring classics.
