.@RoshReignMusic Gets Caught Up In A “Sticky Situation”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Jamaican Songstress Rosh Reign is steadily becoming a household name, and has been providing great music for the world to enjoy. She had the people talking thanks to a successful EP release and a high profile collaboration earlier this year, and has a few surprises in store that will open more doors for her. Until then, she has to get out of a “Sticky Situation”.

Working for the first time with longtime friend RomieIkon, Rosh Reign gets caught up in a tough decision-making scenario in “Sticky Situation”. With love in the mix, she is having a tough time choosing the right person for her heart. Rosh belts out sweet vocals over R&B-inspired Dancehall production, and she reels in her listeners as she contemplates on her current dilemma. “Sticky Situation” is the latest release off the “Channel 28 Riddim”, which was produced by RomieIkon and Legendary Lex, with mixing done by Sojie Vybz. The Riddim was released as a compilation on February 14, 2022, and has amassed over 3 Million streams since then. North American label King Addies Music was brought onboard for the Riddim’s global promotion. During the Riddim’s 1st anniversary celebration, it was announced that Rosh would be the latest addition for a new phase of releases. Her inclusion looks to connect with more listeners in new territories, and lead “Channel 28” to even more success.

Formerly known as Rosh Rebel, Rosh Reign has been in the music scene for a number of years as a recording, and performing Artist as she has gained notoriety for her riveting live performances. Currently managed by City Rock Entertainment, she has a handful of strong releases, and is on a mission to become a dominant force in Jamaica, and the rest of the world.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Reel 2 Real – I Like To Move It (1993)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Ready to turn up the vibes? For today’s Oldies Sunday selection, we’re throwing a party that even the pets will enjoy. Today, we go back to the 90s to check out Colombian/Trinidadian/American duo Reel 2 Real’s “I Like To Move It“.

Produced by Ralphie Muniz and 1/2 of Reel 2 Real’s Erick Morillo and released through Strictly Rhythm in 1993, “I Like To Move It” was Mark Quashie a.k.a. The Mad Stuntman a.k.a. the other 1/2 of Reel 2 Real’s showcase of deejaying over some House Music production. The high energy track was made to get the people moving and rock rooms, with Dancehall/Ragga-inspired lyrics being chanted throughout. With the line “I like to move it move it…“, listeners were in for a good time. The track was included on Reel 2 Real’s 1994 debut album, “Move It!“. “I Like To Move It” was an instant hit for ravers as it secured #1 chart placements in a number of countries including Belgium, Canada, France, Zimbabwe, The Netherlands, and the UK, and top 10 placements in even more countries. The track went on to win a number of awards over the years, went gold in Australia, France, the UK, The Netherlands, and Germany, and has been hailed as one of the best EDM, Party, and 90s songs of all time by a number of publications.

The success of “I Like To Move It” didn’t stop at just chart placements. It was remixed a number of times over the years as well. The track is one of the most frequently licensed songs, appearing on numbers of compilations yearly. It appeared in commercials for USPS, McDonalds, Durex, Jeep, Toyota, and the Fairy dishwasher brand, used in the video games “Just Dance“, “DJ Hero“, “Mario Strikers Charged“, and “SingStar Dance“, and a dance emote inspired by it appeared in “Fortnite“. It was included in a number of TV shows and Films including “American Dad!“, “New York Undercover“, and “Saving Silverman“, but it was at its most popular when it appeared in the “Madagascar” animated film franchise thanks to it being performed by the character King Julien, becoming the official theme song of the franchise. The song still holds a level of popularity to this day.

Since the release of “I Like To Move It”, Reel 2 Real went on to release more music before disbanding in 1997. Erick Morillo continued to produce and DJ until his death in 2020, while Mark Quashie continued to release more music over the years, in between performing “I Like To Move It”. Reel 2 Real owned the 90s, while their biggest hit is still making an impact.

THANK YOU REEL 2 REAL FOR THIS CLASSIC!

Posted on by swadedavillain

We all need genuine people around us. When the world has our backs against the wall, we need that special person or those persons who have our best interest at heart. While many of us aren’t so lucky to have them, 1SkiMask takes the time to acknowledge the ones in his corner. He speaks about them on the new single, “Real“.

Produced by Tru Ambassador Ent.’s own Week.Day, 1SkiMask uses the time to shout out the real friends, emphasizing the importance of love and loyalty in his life. In a time where it’s easy for people to sell out family and friends for validation from strangers and material things and relationships are broken because of deceptive ways, it’s a blessing that there are still good people around who value the importance of love and loyalty. 1SkiMask is still lighting up venues with his performances, and we know he has a lot more music to put out in the coming weeks. Be on the look out for more content from Valdomore as well. Big up the real ones.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist 450 has become one of the more consistent Artists this year, and it has been paying off with a significant growth in his streaming numbers and fanbase, and a steady increase in bookings. The hitmaker secured charting success with his recent single “Wild N Rich”, was the talk of the town in Trinidad, and is gearing up to take things to another level in the UK.

The Week.Day-produced “Wild N Rich” quickly found favour with 450 fans, and the Damaniac Visualz-directed video trended for a number of days on Youtube.

Thanks to its rising popularity, 450 followed up with an “‘Wild N Rich’ Open Verse Challenge” on Social Media, allowing fans to create videos contributing original lyrics to the hit single.

While bookings have increased for 450, his recent appearance in Trinidad & Tobago proved to be one for the books as he had fans singing his hits word for word during a headline-worthy performance. 450 will be closing off the month of November with his recently announced UK tour.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Reggae/Dancehall Recording Artist/Actress Bella Blair is back again with something new! Having made a big return to music earlier this year, she’s on a mission to put her name on more billboards and fliers, and take her music to even more parts of the world. She has the ladies dancing to “Hotty Hotty Ting“, and now she’ll have the people talking with the new single, “Desperado“.

Produced by Yo Christon, “Desperado” finds Bella Blair bringing out a lil more of her bad gyal energy, while still giving us a song to rock to. Over some blaring horns, she steps out like an Outlaw with a spliff in hand, belting out quick flows, vocals that will have your attention throughout the track, and catchy lines that will have you repeating them in no time. Bella Blair continues to showcase her various styles, and “Desperado” may just be another favourite for the listeners. Bella is not slowing down anytime soon, so expect more from her like a storm.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Laden – Time To Shine (2009)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today’s Oldies Sunday selection is a lil late, but we’re here. Today’s selection is dedicated to those who have dreams, ambitions, and a desire to win despite the odds they’re facing. We listen to Dancehall Artist Laden’s “Time To Shine“.

Produced by Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor and released through the Big Ship label in 2009, Laden provides a song that aims to uplift, and encourage. An Artist who is filled with potential and promise, he asks the question, “When is it going to be my time to shine?“. In a time when everyone is trying to make it, Laden was just looking for his big break. Formerly known as “Jim Laden“, the Deejay was a contestant in the 2006 season of the Digicel Rising Stars competition series. He gained popularity after placing at 8th place, but his career wasn’t gaining the right success at the time. “Time To Shine” came at a great time for him, and instantly became a hit. Paired with the popularity of “Di Genius” and his productions, “Time To Shine” took Laden to various parts of the world, and the song even had some commercial appeal as it appeared in a few campaigns.

Since the release of “Time To Shine”, Laden went on to enjoy moderate success, securing a number of hits over the years. He had some trouble with the law, but nowadays he’s more focused on making good music, and lending his expertise to the new generation of Artists. No matter where life takes him, “Time To Shine” remains his biggest, and most memorable single.
