Posted on by swadedavillain

Toronto’s DJ Blkluos continues to stay busy with the music, and grows his brand. While he stepped out with some of his own bars earlier this year, he still gives the platform to other talents in his circle. Recently, he teamed up with Ryan Whiskey for the 2nd volume in his “Early Spring” series titled, “West Coast Whiskey“!

Consisting of 2 tracks plus an interlude, the EP follows up their 2016 collaboration titled, “Thank You“. Ryan Whiskey and Blkluos trade bars here and get to the point over some serious production. This is another in DJ Blkluos’ long line of EP releases this year, and is a prequel to Ryan Whiskey’s upcoming “Burning Rope & Shooting 7” EP that will be released next month. Putting it in the work, even during a pandemic!

OLDIES SUNDAY: Lady Patra – Queen Of The Pack (1993)

Posted on by swadedavillain

There are many Queens, but there is only one Queen Patra! Today she celebrates Lady Patra’s birthday, and we honour her on Oldies Sunday by highlighting her classic “Queen Of The Pack” single!

Produced by Clifton “Specialist” Dillon and Tony “CD” Kelly and released through Epic Records in 1993, “Queen Of The Pack” was Patra’s way of promoting female empowerment as she showed that she can stand on her own, is strong, smart, and beautiful, and she runs things! Patra had no problems standing out in a male dominated Dancehall scene, and it paid off for her. “Queen Of The Pack” was one of Patra’s most memorable singles, and was featured on her 1993 debut album of the same name. It was later remixed by Producer Salaam Remi, and covered by Dancehall Artist Destiny Sparta in 2016.

Since “Queen Of The Pack”, Patra went on to release more singles, took some time off from music to complete her degree in History & Political Science, returned with more music, and flexed her entrepreneurial muscle with her Chateau 7 restaurant in Kingston. You can shuffle the deck all you want, but the “Queen Of The Pack” will always be on top! Big up Patra, and Happy Birthday!

OLDIES SUNDAY: The Chosen Few – In The Rain (1972)

Posted on by swadedavillain

While the Caribbean and parts of the world are experiencing rainy days, today’s Oldies Sunday focuses on a different type of rain. Today’s selection comes from the Reggae Band The Chosen Few with the track, “In The Rain“!

Produced by the late King Sporty and released through Micron Music Limited in 1972, this is a cover of The Dramatics’ 1971 hit, and one of a few Reggae versions done. With many references to actual rain, The Chosen Few are speaking about heartbreak and needing to go out in the rain so no one can see them crying. A song for those who have been experiencing breakups and hurt, The Chosen Few delivered something that comforts the listener. King Sporty’s production on this blends Reggae, Funk, and Soul for something really special. The track was featured on The Chosen Few’s 1976 “Night & Day” a.k.a. “The Chosen Few In Miami” album. We featured it last year in our Youtube video titled, “Rainy Day“, feel free to check it out below.
