REVIEW: @TaZzHTG – “Savage” EP

Posted on by childoflaluna

It’s taken me a little while to get around to checking this project out but i’m finally hip. First Coast Jamaica describes aficionados like myself who are obsessed with paving the way for an underground movement which clamors for a mainstream boost.

Words By: @Sef_Jo

Montego Bay native/South Florida based Daley has compiled Savage EP as a way of communicating this whole idea that Kingstonians cannot call all the shots where the game is concerned. With only a couple months since “Know My Intentions“ by MoulaUE [featured on the project], Savage was released at an ideal time to get the place lit right before Summer ’16. I would personally call this 8-track project a smooth spin on this wave of future trap. It comprises of elements that TDE fans might enjoy with a production vibe which reminds me of SABApivot’s work. Without further adieu…
  • MANTRA
    The seamless Introduction to the project features the alluring vocal essence of Rosh. “One time for your mind..” is the message invoking a mindful meditation wherein listeners are asked to sit back listen and enjoy for the next 28mins~ Success, wealth and health for all.
  • CITY SAVAGE
    Clever metaphors and punchlines; sonics are on point too as we jump right in. Get used to the sound of Daley as his entire flow is switched up. At this point, I’ve made up my mind to refrain myself from too much comparisons. As we know, Mobay is the city Daley reps; I want to assume, however, that living in Pembroke Pines has had some influence on the Rapper’s creative experience. MoulaUE’s booming rhymes and OneLoveTheo final verse reminds us that we have got to keep it savage. This is the ultimate rule and trap culture is reiterated.
  • IGNITE
    As an audiophile, I always love when Artists choose singles that will get me hype. This is what made me interested in giving the project a listen. From the Instrumental to the energy presented here, I’m hardly regretting my decision to compare Daley to some one else. The mystery box that is First Coast Jamaica is that just as it in every other corner of the world, you never know what you will find. Ignite allows me to experience the full versatility of Daley, solely. Don’t care how you feel about it, this joint slaps.

@IAmMalakhi Promotes “I Alone”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Revolutionary spirit I Am Malakhi is currently promoting his latest song “I Alone”. The song is a reflective piece that was produced by renowned label, Music Tower Production. The track has garnered a lot of attention on both the local and International market and so far the feedback has been positive. “I Alone” was entered into the “What’s the Verdict Saturday” show on Roots FM and won by popular demand. The song has also been in regular rotation on stations like RJR, Suncity Radio and ZIP FM.

I Am Malakhi is elated about the positive response that he has been receiving so far and had this to say, “Every fibre of my being is about positivity and upliftment and I use my music as the medium to spread my message. I am happy that my music has been reaching the ears of many and I am forever grateful for the great responses that I have been getting. My journey continues and I will be putting out more songs of this nature for my growing fan base.”

The multifaceted recording artiste performed a magnificent set at the JAM Fest Show in Birmingham on August 6 and even though he wasn’t scheduled to close the show, the task fell on him when headliner Luciano was a no show. “I was grateful for the opportunity to close the show. Luciano was advertised as the main act, but I had to step up to the plate when the organizers learnt that he had missed his flight.”

I AM Malakhi performed at the annual Birmingham Sports and Cultural Day on the 28th of this month. “I have few shows to look forward to for the rest of the year. I want to use this avenue to thank everyone who has been supporting my music and especially for cheering me on at my shows. Look out for more to come from I Am Malakhi.”

@DonAndre Explains Meaning Behind New Single “In It (Ain’t It)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Hot newcomer, Don Andre is keeping his momentum on a high with a brand new release titled, “In It (Ain’t It)”. The track premiered earlier this week on Jamaica’s popular radio station, Zip FM.

Don Andre explained what the song was all about, “The term “In It (Ain’t It)” is just an English figure of speech that is frequently used amongst youths aging from as young as five years old. People outside the UK are usually fond of this slang, so I thought it would a great idea to make a song about the term, “In it”.”

“In It (Ain’t It)” was produced by prominent radio personality, ZJ Dymond’s Full Chaarge Records. The single will be available via all major music outlets for pre-order on September 9th, with an official release on September 23rd. The track is distributed by 21st Hapilos.

Don Andre came to prominence via his remake of the Shabba Ranks classic, “Needle Eye”, which peaked at #1 in Costa Rica. He has been nominated as Best New Artist of the year for the prestigious IRAWMA, among other awards. His ”Tom Cruise” single and dance move are also top contenders in their relevant categories.
