OLDIES SUNDAY: Irene Cara – Flashdance…What A Feeling (1983)

Posted on by swadedavillain

We’re celebrating “Hispanic Heritage Month” on Oldies Sunday. Hispanic Americans continue to make significant contributions to entertainment, sports, and pop culture, and we have highlighted a number of them. Today’s feature comes from American Singer of Puerto Rican and Cuban descent Irene Cara with her single, “Flashdance…What A Feeling“.

Produced by Giorgio Moroder and released through Casablanca Records in 1983, Irene Cara had the people moving with “Flashdance…What A Feeling”. The Dance-Pop single shared lyrics of believing in yourself, letting the music move you, and doing something great to be a success even when the odds are stacked against you. “Flashdance” was a single on the soundtrack for the 1983 Film of the same name and it was used in a pivotal part of the Film, and went on to become a #1 Billboard Hot 100-charting hit, a Gold certification, a GRAMMY award for “Best Female Pop Vocal Performance“, and Academy and Golden Globe awards for “Best Original Song“. In 2023, it was chosen by the Library Of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry. It also pushed the soundtrack to go 6x Platinum.

Since the release of “Flashdance…What A Feeling”, Irene Cara went on to release more music, acted in numerous Films and Broadway productions, and collaborated with a number of Artists before passing away in 2022. “Flashdance…What A Feeling” remains one of her most successful singles.

.@KyngTavii, Kevin2woKrayzee Share “History Of Bloodc***”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today, we’re having a History lesson, and this one you will be want to stick around for. Jamaica possesses a Vocabulary like no other, and the world has had a good share of being influenced by it. Today, History is being taught by Kyng Tavii, and Kevin2woKrayzee on the “History Of Bloodclat“.

The word “Bloodclat (correctly written at ‘Bloodclaat’)” is a popular curse word in Jamaica, but not many are aware of its History. The word originally was slang for Sanitary Napkins, and it grew legs to be used in a manner of scenarios, and extended to other variations. Kyng Tavii and Kevin2woKrayzee took us back to the days post-Slavery with their new skit to provide their own origin story on the word, with a cast that includes Lando DMajorr, Jimbo Dee, YRN Javel, Jermaine Hall, and Transporter. If you’re squeamish about curse words, this one will make you even more uncomfortable. Tune in for the laughs, another quality clip to enjoy.

Likkle Addi & Vybz Kartel Run The League In “M.O.T.M (Man Of The Match)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Dancehall world has been enjoying the day to day life of Vybz Kartel, and the inclusion of his many co-stars. Plenty of these co-stars have been heavily campaigning for his release over the years and kept his name alive, and those include his sons Likkle Addi, Likkle Vybz, and Aiko. The sons have been busy with their own music as well, and they’ve managed to build their respective fanbases. With the release of Kartel, there will be a lot more collaborations, including “M.O.T.M (Man Of The Match)“.

Featuring Likkle Addi and produced by Uptown Gaza Records, “M.O.T.M” is a “like father like son” track that finds the duo solidifying their presence in Dancehall, and while Vybz Kartel is an enigma, he believes his sons will be just as great, if not greater than him. The accompanying Music Video, directed by CVE, finds Kartel, Addi, and Likkle Vybz ruling the pitch as “Gaza City FC” to adoring Cheerleaders, enjoying the spoils of their labour, and we even see Kartel suiting up like Marlon Samuels for a game of Cricket. Good to see the World Boss physically present with his children, and the Palmers boys are up to something, so stay tuned.

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s Friday, and even though it took a lot for us to get here, we’re about to get hyper. Dancehall Artist Tommy Lee Sparta, fresh off of a few lie performances, is still feeling the buzz. He aims to charge us up with the new single, “Active (Energy Up)“.

Produced by Zipjock West’s Yo West Productions, Tommy Lee Sparta is in turbo mode on “Active (Energy Up)”. He promotes being as active as ever whether you’re on the job, at the party, hustling in the streets, or achieving specific goals, he encourages us all to never stop the vibe, and keep moving forward. Yo West gave the “Sparta Boss” the right production that matches the Deejay well, and if it doesn’t get the people moving, we don’t know what will. Use this one for the Gym/Kym, and for times when you need a jolt of energy. Get active.

Compass Releases “She” Fi Di Bad Gyal Dem

Posted on by swadedavillain

No matter the weather, no matter the season, a hot girl is a hot girl all year round. Dancehall Artist Compass has been on the scene for quite some time, and has been gaining recognition on Social Media thanks to some of his musical releases. One thing for sure, he loves him a bad gyal, and he has his eyes on one in the video for the single, “She”.

Directed by One Rizzo, Compass finds himself a beautiful Woman who he can’t stay far from in, “She”. Their initial meeting up in the Neighbourhood quickly turned into a dancing session, with the featured beauty showing off the moves that have Men going crazy. They take their adventures further into the Supermarket, and make for a fun and quick visual. “She” was produced by Izlam Records, and Compass borrows a little from the hit 1990 single, “Gun Inna Baggy” by Little Lenny. Expect a lot more from Compass later this year, but he encourages his supporters to keep “She” busy in the streets, and on the streams.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Life is about making good things happen. Sadly, when you have ambition, and you’re trying to do good, there will be forces that aim to stop your progress. Dancehall Artist Charly Black has experienced his share of detractors and “badmind” activists, and he aims to overcome them all in, “Mind Game“.

Produced by Sponge Music and featuring Dancehall Artist Avanzce, Charly Black soars over badmind, envious, and jealous individuals, and uses his time to not only better himself, but to help others, and be a beam of motivation. Avanzce uses his time to celebrate life and his accomplishments, and gives the people the belief anything is possible. Both Artists have emerged from deplorable circumstances, and have found success in their own way. Their words are further emphasized with a Music Video directed by KD Visuals, and we see them enjoying the spoils of their hard work, even though agents of negativity are present. It’s all about leveling up, and be unstoppable like Charly’s brand.
