Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Elephant Man is a legend, with a career that has been nothing short of impactful. We have been recognizing his greatness for years, and he deserves all the Flowers that should come his way. With hits, plaques, historic moments, and more under his belt, we know he has a lot to look back at and appreciate. Recently, he joined the good folks over at The Fix Podcast for an epic Interview.

Hosted by Naro and Ari, Elephant Man had plenty to discuss in an over 2 hour Interview. Ele spoke on his nearly 30 year career, the ascension of the “Energy God“, contributing to crossing over Dancehall in the 2000s, having a hand in the development and further exposure of some of your favourite Artists, thoughts on the impact of dancing songs in Dancehall, addressing Negus Imara and comments from fellow members of the Dancehall Fraternity, his past feud with Beenie Man, his kids, and a lot more! Elephant Man is to be appreciated, and his contributions should not be taken lightly and should be brought up in more conversations.

.@WSTRNMusic Teams Up With @Skillibeng On “Unload (Reload)”!

Posted on by swadedavillain

UK based collective WSTRN are stepping out with new music. The past few months saw them keeping their name hot with audio and visual content, and they’re looking to follow up their 2019 project, WSTRN Season, Vol. 2. They set the tone with the new track, “Unload (Reload)“.

Produced by PRGRSHN and featuring Dancehall Artist Skillibeng, WSTRN are having fun over some solid production. Paired with Skilli’s signature flow, “Unload (Reload)” sounds like a hit. WSTRN previously collaborated with the likes of Lila Ike, Alkaline, and Stalk Ashley, and with Skilli blazing every path he’s brought to, we expect this collaboration to do very well. Skillibeng has been making plenty noise overseas this year and shutting down stages, and we look forward to what other high profile collabs are up his sleeve.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Snagga Puss – “Tatie” (1994)

Posted on by swadedavillain

We’re in the 90s, where music enjoyed a season of fusions, the fashion was flashy, and the vibes were right. In Jamaica, it was a time where Dancehall and Hip Hop were always in the studio and making noise overseas, many legends just got their official start, and many dances were created. For today’s “Oldies Sunday” selection, we highlight Snagga Puss (formerly known as Dickie Ranking), and his single, “Tatie“!

Produced by Patrick Roberts for the Shocking Vibes label and released in 1994, Snagga Puss joined in on the fun and created a song for a dance called the “Tatie”. Snagga Puss’ persona and delivery were inspired by the Cartoon character Snagglepuss, and helped to make “Tatie” a hit. “Tatie” was featured on Snagga Puss’ 1995 album, “Reggae Funky“. “Tatie” the dance became popular with the youth, and joined the list of prominent dances including the “Bogle“, “Butterfly“, “Peppaseed“, and “World Dance“. Like many dances of the past, “Tatie” has been remixed and renamed a few times over the years. A music video for the track was made in support of “Tatie”, and it was directed by the legendary “BigDaddyLeo” O’Reggio, and featured the late Media Personality, Basil “Bagga” Brown.

Since the release of “Tatie”, Snagga Puss has enjoyed a career with a few hits and memorable dances. He is still active, and has been flexing his entrepreneurial muscle over the years. His distinct sound is still remembered, and “Tatie” is loved by many who were there when it made its debut.

Thank You Snagga Puss For This Classic!
