Mhmm, Vybz Kartel Brings An “Onslaught” With New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

From sold out shows, to the wealth increasing. From Designer threads, to music streaming in the Millions, Dancehall Artist Vybz Kartel has been gaining since touching freedom street. 2026 has  not seen him fall back, and we doubt that’s happening any time soon. All through the year, he’s bringing the “Onslaught“.

Released through Vybz Kartel Muzik and over Central Cee & JHus’ “Slaughter” Instrumental, the Vybz Kartel reflects on his wins, his milestones, and his continued elevation in the new single, “Onslaught”. For every “Mhmm” heard, he shares a win, and not many are at his level currently. The single comes after the announcement that Kartel will join Mavado at Reggae Sumfest 2026 for one night only for “Gaza vs Gully“. The announcement was needed as it was previously shared that the two will go on a “Gaza/Gully” tour starting in Malta, and it left Jamaicans upset as we all believed this tour should start at home. In some of our lifetime, we’ve witnessed the elevation of Vybz Kartel and Mavado, their feud, their reconciliation, and now their new partnership for a tour. In the meanwhile, look out for more onslaught delivered by the “World Boss“.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Grace Nelson – Namebrand (1995)

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Month of March is recognized as “Women’s History Month“, and today is celebrated as “International Women’s Day“. On “Oldies Sunday“, we highlight a number of Women who have made an impact, and significant contributions to music. We also highlight the Women who may not have been the biggest stars, but were well-loved and celebrated. Today, we reflect on the late Grace Nelson, and her track, “Namebrand“.

Produced by Jane Reid for Link Up Management & Productions and released through The Linx Label in 1995, Grace Nelson pushed through to make her voice be heard in, “Namebrand”. Stepping onto the scene with confidence and the power of Jah, Grace aims to show authenticity, raw talent, and a presence that no one can contest. She is the real deal, the top Soldier, and not a flash in the pan. “Namebrand” was a local favourite for the Singer, as her name became prominent in parts of Jamaica since starting out as a teenager performing at local events, being a part of the Clarendon-based Sonic Salvation Gospel Band, and she was steadily becoming known in parts of Europe thanks to her time in the UK, and touring with the Lynx Showcase, a group that recruited various Artists to perform. She was also affiliated with Irie Hi Fi, a German-based Record Label where she voiced a number of singles. The growing popularity of “Namebrand” along with previously-released singles provided her an opportunity to join Reggae Band Black Uhuru for their European tour.

Since the release of “Namebrand”, Grace Nelson would go on to release a few more singles. Grace was on her way to becoming a bigger name locally and Internationally, but tragedy struck in 1998 when she became the victim of murder. Her case found no leads, and to this day, is still unsolved. The St. Elizabeth-born Singer was seen as a star who was gone too soon, and a number of people still remember her and play her music, including “Namebrand”.

THANK YOU GRACE NELSON FOR THIS TRACK! SLEEP WELL.

“Jeezam Peezam”! @ChrisMalachi Promotes Unity With New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

The past few days has been all about conflict. Wars are happening, separations are happening, and a lot of tension. We need peace, we need love, and we need unity. Recording Artist Chris Malachi has been working on inspiring the people with his music, and with the new single “Jeezam Peezam“, we hope change happens soon.

Produced by Stay Nice Music, Chris Malachi calls for the people to come together in the name of goodness in, “Jeezam Peezam”. With so much conflict going on, we need songs that promote togetherness, love over hate, and pushing for combined strength over powers of negativity. Malachi’s single comes at a good time, and we hope it inspires the people to do better. Chris Malachi has been pretty busy this year. Aside from new music, he took the stage at the recently-held “Lost In Time Festival“, and has been making appearances around the Island. Get back in the right vibe, turn on your speakers, and let “Jeezam Peezam” ring out!

During this time, much love to Cuba!

OLDIES SUNDAY: La Lupe – Puro Teatro (1969)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Welcome to the month of March, and it’s the start of “Women’s History Month“. On “Oldies Sunday“, we highlight a number of Women who have made significant contributions to music. Today, we salute the Island of Cuba, and we feature La Lupe, one of the Island’s most energetic Vocalists, and “The Queen Of Latin Soul“. We check out her track, “Puro Teatro“.

Released through Tico Records in 1969, La Lupe sings about a love that wasn’t real from the start, but she fell for the charm in, “Puro Teatro (Pure Theater)”. Known for her powerful vocals, Lupe commanded the listener’s attention immediately, as she shares her disappointment in this affair. “Puro Teatro” was featured on the 1969 album, “La Lupe Es La Reina“, and is loved by many fans worldwide. Having established her presence in Boleros, Guarachas, and Latin Soul, her live performances would at times shock viewers because her voice was so powerful, but it didn’t stop her from getting bookings, and collaborations with some of the best Musicians and Artists in her time.

Since the release of “Puro Teatro”, La Lupe went on to become a big name with a number of albums and singles to her name. Her popularity went on the decline in the late 1960s/70s due to the rise of Salsa Music, and by 1980, she would retire due to religious reasons. Life wasn’t always kind to her over time, and in 1992 she passed away at the age of 55. La Lupe continues to be inspired by a number of Artists, and lives on in music and Film.

THANK YOU LA LUPE FOR THIS TIMELESS SONG!
