OLDIES SUNDAY: Asher D & Daddy Freddy – Summertime (1988)


It’s been a while, but Sundays are for “Oldies Sunday“! Summer is officially here, and that means lots of outside activities for many. One key addition is music, and we have an Oldies Sunday selection for you to check out. Tune in to UK-based duo Asher D & Daddy Freddy’sSummertime“.

Produced by Simon Harris and released through Music Of Life in 1988, Asher D (not to be confused with UK Rapper & “Top Boy” Actor Asher D) & Daddy Freddy gave us a Jamaican style cover of the classic single, “In The Summertime“. “In The Summertime” was originally recorded by British Rock Band Mungo Jerry in 1970, and was huge hit. “Summertime” not only borrowed elements from the original track, but focused on the beautiful ladies from Jamaica, New York, London, Germany, and Italy who would catch the attention of the duo. The song celebrates the summer holidays, beautiful Women, and paid homage to a classic song.

Asher D & Daddy Freddy were the originators of the “Raggamuffin Hip Hop” subgenre, a fusion of Ragga and Hip Hop, and found success with “Summertime” and previously released music. Since the release of “Summertime”, the duo were temporarily split up due to Asher D’s imprisonment in the late 1980s, but reunited in early 1991 before splitting up again indefinitely. Daddy Freddy (who became the World’s Fastest Rapper in 1989 and was inducted in the Guinness Book Of World Records) is still active as a solo Artist, but Asher D has been absent since the 90s. Fans of “Summertime” still play it to this day, reminiscing on the summer holidays in their younger years.

Thank You Asher D & Daddy FreddY For This Tune!

.@FiveSteez, @SonRaw Release “Simple Man” Ahead Of Upcoming Collab Album


For those who’re unaware, Jamaica has a Hip Hop culture that is very active. Some of your favourite Dancehall/Reggae Artists started out as Rappers, or have been heavily influenced by the music. While some of the output reflects on some of the trendy singles and Artists out, there is a sector that respects the elements of the culture, with emphasis on the lyrics. Enter Five Steez who is no stranger on this platform, and has been active on the scene for close to two decades. With a new album on the way, he fires off a single called, “Simple Man“.

Produced by Son Raw, Five Steez does some reminiscing on “Simple Man”. He reflects on some of the experiences good and bad, but also shares some aspects of his day to day life. At the end of the day, he wants to be better, be in better situations, and just live well at that. He taps into his signature delivery here, and the Jazz-influenced sample helps him to get his points across. Five Steez and Son Raw’s “Simple Man” is a track off of their upcoming collaborative project called, “re:DEFined” which is set to be released on July 11 on Bandcamp, and on July 25 on all digital music streaming platforms. Tune in!

Produced by Johnny Goldstein, the uptempo track brings out rapid deliveries from the Artists, with Skilli sprinkling some of the E-Syde badness throughout. Skillibeng continues to keep his name relevant overseas thanks to live performances and collaborations, and on Sunday (June 25), he joined Hip Hop legend Busta Rhymes on stage at the 2023 BET Awards.
