Chip Off The Old Block: Meet The New Kids Of Dancehall x Reggae (Pt. 3)

Posted on by swadedavillain

First they started out as the youth of the Dancehall/Reggae culture, now they’re parents with growing kids. It isn’t unusual for the child of an Entertainer to follow in their parent’s footsteps one way or the other as at times they bring a modern take on their parent’s creations, or create their own lane. Some of the most famous off springs include Stephen, Ziggy, and Damian “Junior Gong” Marley (Sons of Bob Marley), Chino and Di Genius (Sons of Freddie McGregor), Junior Tucker (Son of Jimmy Tucker), Morgan Heritage (Children of Denroy Morgan), Tarrus Riley (Son of Jimmy Riley), Queen Ifrica (Daughter of Derrick Morgan), Protoje (Son of Lorna Bennett), Chronixx (Son of Chronicle) and many more. In part 3 of a few part series, I feature more of the new set of kids on the scene whose parents have covered much ground in their respective careers.

Jahmiel, A Just Life, ItsJahmiel

NEW MUSIC: @ItsJahmiel – A Just Life

Posted on by swadedavillain

In life, sometimes you have to accept the fact that people will be people and today Jahmiel speaks on that in “A Just Life“. Produced by PayDay Music, the “Young Lion” shares his experiences on being there for friends and family and helping people out, only to be the victim of backstabbing and seeing the true colours of those he went out of his way for. He also shows that enemies aren’t the only people who will see your downfall. A song that will have you thinking and reevaluating a lot. Be sure to catch Jahmiel performing in a city near you!

Beniton, Rihanna, Work, BenitonMusic,

NEW MUSIC: @BenitonMusic x @Rihanna – Work (Instamix)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s no surprise when Artists cover popular singles, but Beniton made Rihanna’s “Work” his own with a unique remix. Dubbed his “Instamix“, Beniton flipped some of Riri’s lyrics and lashed at those who live for mix up, men who fail at loving their women, and lazy people. I can’t lie, this is a pretty dope take on the hit single. First premiered via Instagram and Snapchat, check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

Tifa, ItsTheTifa,

NEW MUSIC: @ItsTheTifa – Dreaming (Of A Better Life)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Some people dream of having the perfect home, others dream for an amazing partner, but for Dancehall Artist Tifa, she’s dreaming of a life without the dead weight in “Dreaming“. Produced by DJ Nicco’s SHS Records on the “Vacation Riddim“, Tifa drops notes about being free from the “waste man” and letting him know that there’s no second chance so he should stop scheming and keep on stepping. The production fits Tifa’s lyrics and delivery perfectly and I really believe this will a big single for her. Something different from the Dancehall Mermaid as she can go raw Dancehall in one song, and bring a feel good vibe in the next. One day dreams will come true, but it won’t be with you! Check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
