Dancehall artist Shawn Storm has vowed to do whatever it takes to remain physically present in his daughter’s life following her success in this year’s Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) exams.

Shawn Storm, who was released from prison on July 31 after spending 13 years behind bars in connection with the murder of Clive ‘Lizard’ Williams, has been making the most of his freedom with his child. He has shared highlights of them having dinner together, and she has even gotten him to participate in a TikTok trend.
Shawn Storm’s fans and other well wishers have been sharing in his daughter’s academic success.
Some took the time to send congratulatory comments.
“Well she make you proud for all the years you missing out. Congratulations to you both 🔥🔥🔥🔥,” said one Instagram user.
“Wow congratulations to you and your Princess. This melts my heart,” another said.
Meanwhile, another person said: “Congrats baby girl keep it up, and Shawn continue being the great dad you are. Bless ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
