Aidonia nine-year-old son died || News

Dancehall entertainer Aidonia and his wife Kimberly Megan are mourning the death of their nine-year-old son, King Khalif Lawrence.

The shocking news of the youngster's death late on Saturday has plunged the dancehall fraternity and, by extension, social media, into mourning as persons expressed condolences to the couple.

While Aidonia and his wife have not publicly commented on the passing of their son, it is understood that the child was ill for some time. 

Aidonia, born Sheldon Lawrence in Kingston, first emerged on the dancehall scene in 2004 when he got his break as a member of Bounty Killer’s Alliance group of entertainers.

Since then, he has built a strong catalogue of hits, among them being 'Pretty Please', 'Yeah Yeah', 'Nuh Boring Gyal', and 'Tip Pon Yuh Toe'.
