Skippa Joins The “Hill & Gully Riddim” With “Service”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully” agenda continues, and Di Genius is busy cooking up new selections. Whether it’s daytime, or “Nighttime“, Skippa will appear with something new for the people. He’s next up on the “Hill & Gully Riddim“, joining Govana, Elephant Man, Masicka, and Valiant who have shared their official releases. Today, we get, “Service“.

With a video directed by Ruppi for Now Or Never, Skippa finds himself down by the river, and later at the dance in the video for, “Service”. Tapping into fond memories on the countryside, Skippa could be seen doing some fishing, and at the same time admiring some lovely Women who show off their dancing, and washing skills. Things get more fun when Skippa shows up at the dance, and more people get to dancing, and having a grand time. This new video calls for some whites with ice, a Kangol or Fedora, and some slacks with the Clarks. The old school styling throughout fits well with the new Riddim, and we look forward to more releases. While there have been a few who complained about the Riddim this week, we’re just looking forward to this being another cultural moment, and start a new wave like the “WYFL Riddim“. Never heard a Trap Dancehall Artist on an old school Riddim? Tune in.

The single is accompanied by a music video directed by 1Loco Prod. and shot in St. Catherine, and it finds Summerz connecting with the people, taking himself from the city and appreciating nature, and utilizing his space to share a strong message.

When “Gyal Good”, @TheAlkaline Has To Put Them In A Music Video

Posted on by swadedavillain

It has been over a month since Dancehall Artist Alkaline released his new album, “NPT“, and it’s still doing numbers. With a few of the album tracks securing places on charts, Alkaline is going nowhere anytime soon. He’s also gearing up for more live performances, so that the album gets more love. One of the album’s tracks, “Gyal Good“, has been receiving a lot of attention, and it’s only right that there’s an official music video.

Directed by Damaniac Visualz, Alkaline takes it to the street with his Women in, “Gyal Good”. He uses the screen to showcase a few Women who are guilty of having the good good, and the colourful visual is bound to be on repeat, further boosting the single’s reach. With a number of visuals already out in support of “NPT”, maybe Alka will go further and just drop videos for the rest of the album. The fans would love that. In the meantime, keep the video busy, and show your love for the music at Alkaline’s next live show.

Govana Takes On The “Hill & Gully Riddim” With “Itsy Bitsy” For The Fun-Loving Women

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully Riddim” has become a monster! With Di Genius giving a number of singles the green light, there have been a slew of upcoming and established Artists creating their own music to the Riddim in hopes of gaining an official authorization. Valiant had his turn with “Woii“, and now Govana enters the chat with, “Itsy Bitsy“.

Govana has a thing for the Women who possess certain qualities, and know how to have fun in, “Itsy Bitsy”. The track borrows from “Day-O“, which was made famous by the late Harry Belafonte, and “Fat Beef” by The Tellers, and the “Strikeforce Boss” delivers slick lyrics throughout for the ladies who live on the “grippy” side of life. With a video directed by Ruppi for Now Or Never, we get a colourful visual filled with unique fashion (provided by Shampagnex for Seora Clothing), the Jamaican flag, and nuff vibes that you’ve come to know and love. Di Genius has his hands full with the “Hill & Gully Riddim”, and with Ayetian, Busy Signal, and Nigy Boy on the way, things are going to get even more interesting.

Gio Mar Wants To Break Free From “Soda”

Posted on by swadedavillain

She has the love that’s sweeter than a Fanta, but she burns like a cold Pepsi on a hot day, and Singer Gio Mar has a dilemma! The Recording Artist has been busy making new music recently, but is dealing with a situation that sounds great to be in, but really hard to escape from. He talks about it in, “Soda“.

Released through GioVio Productions, Gio Mar finds himself in a love situation that has some complications in, “Soda”. Like your favourite fizzy drink, it can be the best thing in the world, but when it doesn’t mean you well, it can be the hardest thing to put down. Gio Mar has been dealing with a Woman that got him addicted to her, but she has some ways that suggests that the entirety of the relationship will be filled with hurt. He feels the burn from this union, but her Coca Cola bottle shape and bubbly charm has a hold on him. What a carbonated predicament. Outside of that, Gio Mar has been hitting a few stages in between recording, and has more music to hit the streets this Summer. What’s your choice of Soda?

Fee Fi Foe, Yaksta Releases “The Return” Ahead Of New Album

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist Yaksta has been very busy these past few weeks. From Media appearances to music releases, he’s building on his rollout for his new album, “The Microphone Saved Me“. With “Roar” connecting with more people, it’s only right he delivers more music to build more anticipation. He follows up with the new single, “The Return“.

Produced by Track Starr, Yaksta makes bold steps on “The Return”. He doesn’t bite his tongue here, and he’s calling out the colonizers, the deceivers, the snakes, and the oppressors. He has seen too much corruption happening, and he’s letting the fire blaze, and the chants ring out, and his sword slice through the screens. The energy he brought in “Roar”, is amplified on “The Return”, and will be greater on “The Microphone Saved Me”. Yakst continues to showcase his diversity, emphasizes that he lives his life with a certain order, and encourages us to seek out the right in this crazy world. Keep the fire burning, and “NPT” the “Bush Lawd“.

Valiant Makes The Women Say “Woii” On The “Hill & Gully Riddim”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully” agenda continues. Di Genius struck gold when he made this Riddim, and we are tapping into not only Dancehall culture, but even more of our Jamaican culture and heritage. The Producer unleashed his Riddim for more Artists to get busy with, but today, Valiant is next up to bat. Yesterday Elephant Man dropped “Hold Him Gyal“, now Valiant drops “Woii“.

Directed by Zise x Top Shootah, Valiant brings the Women down to Emmanuel Road in the video for, “Woii”. As previously mentioned, Vali shares inspiration from the Folk Song “Dung A Emmanuel Road“, and the video brings us to the Market, with a healthy sprinkling of Jonkunnu and Kumina throughout. The “Hill & Gully Riddim” has been a part of the conversation since the preview, and we look forward to what’s next (Maybe Ayetian?). Galang gyal!

Directed by Rizzy for Now Or Never, Jada Kingdom channels Damian “Junior Gong” Marley in the video for “Still Searching”. Having sampled the original Yami Bolo-featured 2001 classic, Jada takes it a step further by recreating the original music video as a part of paying tribute. Junior Gong’s original was featured on his 2001 GRAMMY-winning album, “Halfway Tree“.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Over the weekend, the legendary Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor premiered the first installment in his new “Hill & Gully Riddim” called, “Slip & Slide” by Masicka. The Riddim taps into Jamaica’s Folk Music and Mento culture, paying homage, while making something new at the same time.

Today, we get the premiere of, “Hold Him Gyal“.

Directed by King Simeon Di Great, Elephant Man takes it to the farmland in the video for, “Hold Him Gyal”. From Donkey riding, to overalls, to tending to the crops, we’re taken back to simpler times, but with that modern vibes, and the Women putting on their best moves, all powered by the “Energy God” and Di Genius. “Hold Him Gyal” shares inspiration from the popular Folk Song, “Hold Him Joe“, and it is fitting with the concept of the Riddim. We even got some duppy, Jonkunnu, and our traditional Plaid in the mix! The “Hill & Gully Riddim” is growing in presence, and with Valiant and Ayetian onboard, this compilation is gonna be another one for the books, and promote more of our rich culture. Ele is as busy as ever thanks to consistent bookings, and if you’re in Atlanta this May, you can catch him on the ReggaeFest Tour. Poco Man Skank to this one.

Dennis Brown’s “Revolution” Featured In New “Apex” Film

Posted on by swadedavillain

Over the weekend, streaming giant Netflix released the much-anticipated Film, “Apex“. Starring Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton, the Film revolves around a Woman who goes on rock climbing excursions in Australia, becoming the target of a Hunter. The survival Thriller quickly found fans, and rang up the numbers over the weekend. The Film features a soundtrack that blends well with some of the action scenes, but for the not-so-action parts, a familiar sound from Jamaica made an appearance.

During a small scene of the new Film, “Apex”, Reggae Icon Dennis Brown’s “Revolution” was featured. Produced by Sly & Robbie and released through the Taxi label in 1983, Brown called for the people to stand up and fight for what is right. If you want a life that’s peaceful, a life that is good and filled with love, you have to join the ranks and fight. The track was featured on Brown’s 1985 album of the same name, was sampled by Bounty Killa and Public Enemy, and covered by Bad Brains. “Revolution” is also one of Dennis Brown’s most popular singles.

“Apex” starring Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton is out now on Netflix.

We Pay Tribute To Jimmy Cliff With New “Sampling” Playlist

Posted on by swadedavillain

On November 24 2025, the world mourned the loss of one of Reggae’s most legendary Ambassadors, Jimmy Cliff. One of the pioneering Artists of the genre, he took Reggae to places that have never heard of it, and solidified himself as one of Jamaica’s true Rockstars. He scored big in music, and in Film, and has influenced generations. Despite him not being here physically, his musical legacy, name, and family live on. We send our condolences to his family at this time. We pay tribute to the Icon with our latest Playlist, “Sampling Jimmy Cliff“.

While Jimmy Cliff’s catalogue has been off limits in the case of sampling, there were a few Artists who were allowed a chance to, who then managed to treat the music with respect, and paid tribute through their own creations. Featuring the likes of Rebel MC, Cutty Ranks, FatBoy Slim, Afroman, and Kris Kross Amsterdam, you can tune in to some of the sampled works, and the original hits from Dr. Cliff himself. If you aren’t familiar with our Playlist selections, check them out here. Thank you Jimmy Cliff for your work and life, and may you continue inspiring many for years to come. Sleep well, legend.

Posted on by swadedavillain

This post is dedicated to a Mother, a sister, a very unique talent, and a friend. She was born Shaneika Martin, but the music scene first knew her as “Shie“, then later on, Rhiya Luna. We lost this dear individual on March 2 after a long battle with Illness, and it has really left a dark cloud over many who received the news. She was a longtime friend and supporter of this platform, and she was destined to do great things. It’s never easy when you lose a loved one, and one can only keep their memory alive through previous interactions, and their works and hobbies. Today, we pay tribute to Rhiya Luna with a tribute Playlist titled, “Long Live Rhiya Luna“.

For over an hour, listeners can tune in to some of the tracks that Rhiya Luna shared with the world over the years. From Dancehall singles, to R&B and Pop-inspired tracks, to songs with positive messages, she was on her way to doing even more, but life had other plans. She got to share the stage with some great talent, and when there were doubts, she was backed by many who truly believed in her and wanted to see her win. She leaves behind a family who will honour her name, and listeners like us will ensure that the people heard her. Long live Rhiya Luna, sleep well my friend ❤️.

GyalKapone Stays Locked & Loaded On “Syko”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist/Creative GyalKapone returns with new music! Still new to the field, she’s still developing and working her way to becoming a name to know. She has been recording, and is ready to take on the world! She recently released her new single, “Syko“.

Produced by Jingo Hol On Deh, GyalKapone goes into “John Wick” mode her as she’s out for blood. Locked and loaded, she has a few rounds for those who dare to step in her way with an intention to bring harm. Backed by good production and a melodic delivery, GyalKapone makes her “Syko” lyrics hit hard, so wear a vest and brace for the impact. She first came on the scene with “Never“, then followed up with “Mission” and “Mission (Remix)“, and even launched the “Enz Off Podcast“. While it’s too early to ask for a project, we believe GyalKapone’s breakout moment is just around the corner. If you haven’t been familiar with her yet, today is the day that changes.

Jamaican Software Developer Turns Classic Card Game “Strip Me” Into New App!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Growing up in the Caribbean, playing outside was the order of the day. Before the advent of the Internet as we know it, ring games, sports, and many other activities would dominate a child’s life, and would be remembered fondly. With the increase of technology, many of our pastimes have been fading away from regular use, and online activities have taken over. While many would show their displeasure, Jamaican Software Developer Kenardo Smith takes utilizes the power of modern Tech to incorporate some of our favourite pastimes.

 “Two Of Cards” is a Freeminum App, which means it’s ad-supported, and offers in-app purchases that will enhance the user’s experience. The App is available on iOS, MacOS, and Android platforms, requiring users to have iOS 11.0 and up, MacOS 11.0 or later, or Android OS 5.0 or later installed on their respective devices. Kenardo Smith will be updating the game through a series of App updates in the future.
