It’s always good to hear some of our favourite songs in TV and Film, especially when you’d least expect to hear Dancehall, Reggae, or even Soca music in them. Known as one of the most sampled Dancehall track, Sister Nancy’s “Bam Bam” is still doing its rounds. This time around, it has made an appearance in Netflix’s newest series, “Maid“.

Featured in episode 3 of “Maid”, “Bam Bam” was produced by Winston Riley and released in 1982. It created history as it put Sister Nancy on the map for being the 1st Female Dancehall Artist, and the first to tour internationally as one.

Posted on by swadedavillain

In 1970, the duo known as Dave Barker and Ansell Collins a.k.a. Dave & Ansell Collins released their single, “Double Barrel“. Produced by Winston Riley, the song went on to become the second Jamaican produced track to top the UK music charts. From there it went on to sell numerous records, charted in the US, and introduced the world to a young Sly Dunbar, who played drums on the record. It became a classic, and was immortalized by many Artists through the technique of sampling. Today, for our latest #13thStreetThrowback Playlist, we highlight “Double Barrel”.

Featuring 50 tracks, the “Double Barrel” Playlist highlights a few covers, and songs that sampled the 1970 hit.

Chase Soundz kept his word that for the month of September, he would release a new song every Friday. Unfortunately he missed out last week due to reasons beyond his control, but today he returns to close off the series with his “9-3 Freestyle“.

For almost 2 minutes, Chase Soundz gets into his “no pen, no pad” mode to drop off a few bars over a beat produced by Ratfooshi that pays tribute to Rapper Isaiah Rashad’s track of the same name. Chase Soundz has plans to release more music in 2021, but we hope he drops a follow up to his 2020 “BearWithMe EP“. If you’re liking what you’re hearing, check out Chase’s previous offerings.

.@CapellaGrey Recruits @PopcaanMusic & @ChrisBrown For The “Gyalis (Remix)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

2021 has been a great year for US based Artist Capella Grey. His “Gyalis” single was everywhere from parties, to becoming a Social Media fixture, to even being featured on a few of your favourite Podcasts and Playlists. While it had some controversy thanks to his Genius “Verified” feature not sitting well with some members of Jamaican/Caribbean Twitter, “Gyalis” is still a hit. On a mission to grow the song to new levels, Capella recruited Popcaan and Chris Brown for the official remix.

While Chris Brown brings his signature vocals and energy, Popcaan steps in like a true gyalis with his verse as “the ladies crown him King“. “Gyalis” gets some new life on the remix, and if you haven’t been familiar with the song, now is the time to take a listen. 3 different Artists, 3 different types of Gyalis, one dope song. Capella touches base with his Jamaican roots in some of his music, and promises to be one of more prominent names for years to come. Popcaan on the other hand has been pretty busy these past few weeks, when he’s not buying sneakers in the UK, he’s hopping on plenty songs. The Unruly Boss continues to thrive no matter what’s going on.
