This is an old photo. It was shared in Feb last year. This is a tree that was planted a long time ago and was in a school compound. It split in half and posed a threat to kids in the school they cut it down and planted 20 tree seedlings. I hope this info is helpful.

Which Chronixx? . The Grammy Nominated Chronixx? The Chronixx who was the only reggae artist to make it Rolling Stone magazine in 2017? The Chronixx who has been here 3 times and delivered amazing shows? . That Chronixx?.
Chronixx is very underrated. Mad talent there.
