.@DAJayLegacy Collaborates With @DaleVirgo For Long-Awaited “Polarity 2” Project.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist D.A.Jay has been busy taking his talents to various parts of the world, steadily building his movement in the process. The years have been good to him and his career, and his music has inspired many, thanks to the positive and uplifting messages he delivers. Ready to take things to another level, D.A.Jay is gearing up to release the new album, “Polarity 2”.

“Polarity 2” is the long-awaited follow up to his 2018 “Polarity” album, and it will be his latest release since the 2019 “Invincible” EP. Fans can expect D.A.Jay’s 3rd album to deliver great content, with the Artist tapping into new sounds and subject matter that will surprise listeners, but make for a solid body of work. The album will be produced entirely by Dale “Dizzle” Virgo of DZL Records, further cementing their friendship, and knack for making great music together. “Polarity 2” will also feature a collaboration with Dancehall/Reggae Artist Agent Sasco, who previously appeared on his “Invincible” EP. 

“This new project is one of my favourites,” D.A.Jay shared. “I called it ‘Polarity 2’ because it’s me trying to be transparent to my fans, showing both sides of my thoughts. I was honest with myself in the Recording Booth. I know I have fans from day one who will be shocked and maybe a little confused by some of the new content, but I assure you my aspirations as an Artist remains the same. In the end, everything will all make sense. To my new fans, I say welcome. Follow me on this journey while I put together pieces of a puzzle, and you’ll get to see the big picture in the end.”

D.A.Jay started his career as a Gospel Artist, and has extended his songwriting skills for various Artists including Dancehall Artist Bounty Killa. D.A.Jay has been working with Dale “Dizzle” Virgo since 2004, and the connection resulted in numerous releases that have done well locally, and Internationally. Dale “Dizzle” Virgo is a multiplatinum Producer who resides in Kingston, and is the mind and muscle behind DZL Records. Dale Virgo has worked with the likes of Rihanna, Drake, Christopher Martin, Ikaya, and Chronixx, and has aided in the development of Artists like Kim Nain, Devin Di Dakta, Scantana, Senita Mogul, and many others.

.@BugleAn9ted’s “Toxicity (Deluxe)” Makes Strong Debut On @iTunes Top 10 Reggae Charts!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Reggae/Dancehall Artist Bugle has a lot to be thankful for, and his hard work continues to yield great results. His deluxe version of his highly acclaimed “Toxicity” album, which was released on August 26, made a strong debut on the US iTunes Reggae Album Charts placing at #10. 

The 16 track project, which includes collaborations with Dexta Daps, Heph B, Bounty Killa, Marcia Griffiths, and Ding Dong, has gained positive feedback since its release. One of the album’s tracks “Big Boy (Remix)”, a collaboration between Bugle, Heph B, and Laa Lee, boosted anticipation for the album’s release just days before its release, and has continued to enjoy streaming and radio placements around the world. “Saddest Day”, a long-awaited collaboration with Bugle and Dexta Daps, has quickly become a fan favorite as it pays tribute to Dancehall Icon, Wayne Wonder. The album also charted throughout the Caribbean’s iTunes Reggae Album Charts namely #10 in the Dominican Republic, #12 in Barbados, and #30 in Antigua & Barbuda.

Bugle has been hitting the road to support his “Toxicity (Deluxe)” project. He recently performed in New York at the annual “Angela Yee Day” event and the “Dexta Daps & Friends” concert, and he looks to announce more performance dates shortly. Bugle is also gearing up to release visual content in support of the new album, with video shoots to commence in the coming days. 

Bugle’s “Toxicity (Deluxe)” is out now on all digital music streaming platforms through VP Records, Evidence Music, and An9ted Entertainment. Check it out below, and share with a friend. Show us some love/follow us on Twitter and Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.

.@ShenYeng’s “Pon Mi” Lives Different Lives On @TikTok!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Over the past few months, users of the Social Media platform TikTok would hear the following opening line from various videos in their feeds, “P***y tight, p***y clean, p***y fresh…“. The song behind that is Dancehall Artist Shenseea’s 2018 single, “Pon Mi“. Produced by Dunw3ll, the single was an instant hit for the “ShenYeng” Artist, and it showed on streaming platforms Youtube, Apple Music, and Spotify. The original song was also loved on Instagram, but when it crossed over to TikTok, it became a different monster.

When “Pon Mi” made its debut on TikTok, the song would be used in dance videos, “fresh out the shower” selfie videos, and was even heavily used in Dog TikToker MisterMainer clips. Over the past few weeks, “Pon Mi” would enjoy a series of remixes that would make Romeich shed tears. Thanks to various Producers (including Ranvision) and DJs, “Pon Mi” was given Classical Music remixes, EDM remixes, 70s Pop remixes, Country Music remixes, K-Pop remixes, Hip Hop remixes, and just about any style you can think of. If we can predict it just a lil bit, the popularity of Shenseea’s “Pon Mi” may reflect exponentially in the streams, making it one of her most popular singles ever. With TikTok becoming the hot platform for Artists to gain major exposure, for old songs to get a new life, and for new hits to be made, we’re curious to see what will happen next.

In the meantime, keep it tight, clean, and fresh! Check out some of the TikTok clips below, and share with a friend. Show us some love/follow us on Twitter and Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.

Dancin' Dynamites 16 Jamaica 13thStreetPromotions 13thStreetPromo

“Team Overcome” Secures “Dancin’ Dynamites” Season 16 Win

Posted on by swadedavillain

They came. They Saw. They Conquered. Team Overcome secured the top prize of over $1 million dollars in cash and prizes and the bragging rights for winning the long-awaited Season 16 Charles Chocolates Dancin’ Dynamites 2020/2021 grand finale on Saturday.

The journey began for the Dynamites in January 2020 with the usual launch of the season. But everything since, has been anything but customary. Due to the pandemic, the Competition was paused to ensure the safety of the competitors and stakeholders. As the organisers geared up for the live grand finale, news came of Tropical Storm Elsa threatening Jamaica. As the trajectory for the system fluctuated, the production team was busy adjusting plans to accommodate a successful staging of the event, and that they did.

Fearless, the four finalists Team Overcome, A1 Family, Strike Team, and Team Ovadose, were ready to put their best foot forward for their chance to lift the winning trophy. The evening officially kicked off with each team’s opening performances that rocked the Excelsior Community College auditorium with high energy, and exhilarating screams from supporters who were present to witness the showdown.

When the dust cleared for the evening, and all the votes were counted, Team Overcome, which is comprised of three members – Marcel Pitter (21), Renardo Peart (26) and Paul McDermott (13), who all hail from May Pen, Clarendon emerged the winner of the Charles Chocolates Dancin’ Dynamites 2020/2021 grand finale. In an interview, the team’s leader, Marcel Pitter said the journey to the championship had many challenges.

But for the group, overcoming the setbacks from the team and then COVID-19 is a part of what makes them special. “Even when the Competition was postponed, we stayed together and pushed each other by practicing daily and entering competitions on Instagram. We never doubted ourselves and knew from the beginning that we were going to win so we would campaign daily up in the communities in May Pen until about 7pm and then practice until about 1am,” he stated.

Pitter, who entered the Competition before, but was not successful, shared that the support of the community, family and friends went a long way in making his team’s victory a reality. “The community is proud of us and they always motivated us even when we were practicing because they were happy that we were representing them so well,” he added.
