If you thought the “Hill & Gully” agenda died, it’s just getting started. While Di Genius has been enjoying a lot of attention for the “Hill & Gully Riddim“, some of the entries were causing controversy. As with every Riddim, the music must go on. Today, Dancehall Artist Ayetian finally steps up with, “Donkey Call“.
The Caribbean culture continues to get highlighted in Ayetian’s “Donkey Call”. The song was partially inspired by the folk song, “Donkey Song“, but is more of Ayetian’s account of his time with a love interest in the countryside, and a visit of a “Nine Night“/Wake. The track is accompanied by a music video directed by Brownland Pictures, and one of Jamaica’s most popular TV shows, “Hill & Gully Ride” is highlighted here. The video features a the likes of Prince Guava, Evy Royal, Iconsage, and Pukupoo along with a number of dancers and musicians. The video showcases what happens at a Nine Night, from the drinking, to the dancing, and the eating of course. Despite the subject matter, one can’t deny that the Riddim is a chance to bring back parts of our culture that is sometimes lost in the mainstream, and an opportunity to educate listeners and viewers. When was the last time you went to a “Dead Yaad“? Remember the Mannish Wata? R.I.P. to the Goat.
