Rani Rastaciti Turns Police Encounter Into “Black Belt” Single



Over the weekend, Dancehall Artist Rani Rastaciti had an encounter with the Police. During his travels, he was stopped by some Officers in Manchester. What could’ve been a routine stop turned into a moment for the Deejay, and fans of the Deejay witnessed the scenario via his TikTok livestream. Fresh off of the ordeal, he turned it into a song called, “Black Belt“.

Produced by Chippy Beatz Recordz/Giva Damn Records, Rani Rastaciti relives his encounter with the Police in, “Black Belt”. He also paints the picture of the incident going into another direction, and it sounds like something out of an action movie. The Deejay has been enjoying success throughout the year, including a few viral moments. The Police and Jamaican Entertainers are always at odds, and Rani’s incident is just another day in the series. It’s good that this didn’t turn into an arrest, or violence. Rani can have a laugh today, and make content out of it. Stay alert as always.

Tony Matterhorn’s “Dutty Wine” Sampled On @RoyWoods’ New “X” Album



Jamaica has been the topic of discussion these past few days. From celebrating her 64th Independence, to New York hosting its first Jamaica-themed day parade, to her exports making things happen in music, sports and more, Jamaica is always a vibe. Toronto Recording Artist Roy Woods knows she’s a vibe as well. Recently, he released his latest album, “X“. Released through Drake’s OVO Sound, the Singer looks to take back his spot with 10 new tracks that aim to keep the listener in a groove. Having a Caribbean background, he tapped into a sound for one of the tracks, and many of us would instantly recognize it.

On track 7 of Roy Woods’ new “X” album called “Set Fire“, Dancehall Selector/Recording Artist Tony Matterhorn’s classic single “Dutty Wine” was sampled. Produced by Di Genius, a sample of the track’s Instrumental dominates the uptempo selection along with references to the “Dutty Wine” dance and lyrics. “Dutty Wine” was produced by SupaHype on the “Smash Riddim” and released through Hyperactive Entertainment in 2006, and is Tony Matterhorn’s most successful single as it broke ground on the International market, and never left. The dance caused quite the controversy over the years, but was adopted by many, including US Recording Artist Beyonce, who performed in a number of her routines.

Roy Woods’ “X” album is out now.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Louie Lepkie – Fi We Country (1982)


August 6 is recognized as Jamaica’s Independence Day. On that day in 1962, Jamaica made the separation from being a British colony, to being its own Country. We’re still celebrating 64 years later, and on “Oldies Sunday“, we bring you the music that taps into that vibe. We go back in time to check out Louie Lepkie’sFi We Country“.

Produced by Niney The Observer on the “Heavenless Riddim” and released through Hit Bound/Channel One Records in 1982, Louie Lepkie paid tribute to his Island home in, “Fi We Country”. Listeners then would enjoy the references to some of the Jamaican products and resources, including the then JBC TV, the Nation’s official Television station which is now known as Television Jamaica (TVJ), and shouting out the late Bob Marley and the late Barry G. “Fi We Country” gained attention when it was released, and was well-received. The track was featured on Lepkie’s 1982 album “Willie Red“.

Since the release of “Fi We Country”, Louie Lepkie went on to release more music, and perform with various Sound Systems. He would tragically lose his life in 1987 in New York, but his music would live on. Many still remember “Fi We Country”, and many of his other releases.

THANK YOU LOUIE LEPKIE FOR THIS HIT!

Jamaicans Cover Classic @TheBeatles Music In Our New Playlist


On May 8 1970, the famed British group The Beatles released their final album, “Let It Be“. Beatlemania was a huge moment in music, and has influenced generations of Musicians and Artists. Consisting of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison, The Beatles connected with many worldwide, including Jamaica. Competition was brewing on the Island as well, as there were Artists who believed they could take The Beatles’ place including The Zodiacs, who were once propelled to be a threat to the group in the media. Today, the music is still respected, and tributes from some of your favourite Artists have been performed and recorded. For our latest Playlist, we share the many times Jamaicans covered The Beatles.

In our new Playlist “Jamaica Sings The Beatles“, we feature the many Artists who recorded covers of some of The Beatles’ many classics. From Ernie Smith, to John Holt, to Pat Kelly, to Bob Marley, to Phyllis Dillon, to even Vybz Kartel, you’ll hear covers that you’ve either never heard before, or haven’t heard in a while. It has been 56 years since the group’s final album before splitting up, and their influence is still very strong. You’ll hear their music in different styles and vibes, from Reggae to Dancehall, from back in the day, to more recent times. Get your speakers ready for this one.

We Pay Tribute To The Late Rhiya Luna In Our Latest Playlist


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 ❤️.

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“.

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“.

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


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 the latest Caribbean gaming App developed by Kenardo Smith through K.I.S.S. Games. The App follows up Smith’s “ABC Fast Or Slow”, which was released in January 2020, and was widely success as it gained thousands of downloads between the iOS and Android platforms, and received praises on Social Media, and on 13thStreetPromotions.com, and TheDigitalJamaica.com. “Two Of Cards” is the digital version of the “Strip Me” card game from Jamaica, or the “Suck The Well” card game from Barbados and Trinidad & Tobago, and requires two players alternatively playing various cards with one having the better card, and the other rewarding that player till either party’s hand is empty, deeming the rewarded the victor.

 “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.
