.@TheAlkaline Handles Things Like A “Boss” On New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Alkaline may not drop music as often as some of his peers, but best believe the fanbase shows up when he drops something new. Still making moves and still owning a huge following, it may be time for a new project from him. While we wait, he lets go the new single, “Boss“.

Produced by Autobamb Records and Sart Out Records (R.I.P. Dane Sortie 🙏🏽), Alkaline lets you know that he only makes boss moves, and is calling all the shots. Don’t take him for a simple person, and it won’t go bad. Still throwing shots here and there, but Alkaline still holds his own. “Boss” is the 4th single released in recent weeks, and we look forward to see what’s next from him.

OLDIES SUNDAY: @GloriaEstefan – Coming Out Of The Dark (1991)

Posted on by swadedavillain

In recognition of Women’s History Month, we take the time out to feature Women who have made great contributions to our music culture. While we celebrate the Women all year over here, we recognize some through our Oldies Sunday section. For today’s selection, we head on over to Miami to check out Cuban-American Pop Artist Gloria Estefan’s “Coming Out Of The Dark“.

Produced by Emilio Estefan Jr., Jorge Casas, and Clay Ostwald, “Coming Out Of The Dark” was released through Epic Records in 1991. The track finds Gloria Estefan overcoming challenges, and emerging it a triumphant person. The song is the first release for Estefan since recovering from her near-tragic accident on March 20, 1990. The accident was a result of her Tour Bus colliding with an 18-Wheeler Truck. It left her with a broken back that had to go through delicate repair, and the event left many in deep shock as Estefan was at the height of the success of her Debut album, “Cuts Both Ways“. “Coming Out Of The Dark” was featured on her sophomore album, “Into The Light“, and secured #1 placements on the Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemporary charts, #1 placements in Canada, and top 10 charting in various charts around the World. the track also won BMI and ASCAP Pop Music Awards in 1992. A Spanish version the track called, “Desde La Oscuridad” was released soon after, and was well received in Latin America.

Since the release of “Coming Out Of The Dark”, Gloria Estefan went on to secure more hits in her career. She also received stars on the Hollywood and Las Vegas Walk Of Fame respectively, awarded the Presidential Medal Of Freedom, was inducted in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame, and has inspired many Latin Artists, and people around the World. Gloria Estefan remains a champion, a survivor, and a powerful Woman.

Thank YOU GLORIA ESTEFAN For This CLASSIC!

450 Shares Life Lessons On “Live N’ Learn”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist 450 has been regarded as one of the more consistent Artists in recent years. From his generation of Artists, he has managed to deliver songs that will make you think about life and its many challenges, but still have songs that cater to the ladies, and those all about having a good time. Despite the positives in his life, he has experienced his share of pitfalls, and he looks to educate the listener on “Live N’ Learn“.

In video directed by Damaniac Visualz, 450 gives us life lessons on “Live N’ Learn”. He lets us in on some of the times he has been let down people who he thought cared about him, and shows gratitude for putting them behind him so he can enjoy life. He’s living and learning, and in the video he buries his past self, and warns viewers to be careful in the world. “Live N’ Learn” was produced by Sponge Music on the “Forgiven Riddim“. Along with new music, 450 has been busy with live performances in and outside the Caribbean, and securing new connections which would later turn into collaborations. 450 is focused, and just like the comments that we see all the time on Youtube, he hasn’t disappointed his fans yet.
