FROM the inner-city community of Seaview Gardens in western St Andrew that raised him to conquering the global dancehall stage, Rodney “Bounty Killer” Price returned home Tuesday to receive the Keys to the City of Kingston and the renaming of a road in his honour.

“It’s official, the king of Kingston with the keys to Kingston,” a jubilant Price declared as he accepted the city’s highest civic honour during a ceremony at Seaview Gardens Primary School.

In a further tribute to the dancehall icon, Wenchman Road — where Price spent much of his youth — was officially renamed Rodney Price Drive, following a petition from Seaview Gardens’ residents and approval by the Kingston and St Andrew Municipal Corporation (KSAMC).
