Super Beagle & Reggie Stepper Sampled On New @FreddieGibbs & @Alchemist Project


In the wee hours of Friday July 25, US Rapper Freddie Gibbs and Producer The Alchemist released their new collaborative project called, “Alfredo 2“. The new project is the sequel to their 2020 release, and features the duo sharing street tales, and a display of lyrical exercises over solid production. Fans have anticipated this project for quite some time, but some may have heard a familiar sound on one of the tracks.

On track 5 of Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist’s “Alfredo 2” named “Empanadas“, Reggie Stepper and Super Beagle’s “Cu Oonuh” was sampled throughout. Produced by Winston Riley on the “Stalag Riddim” and released through the Techniques label in 1993, “Cu Oonuh” was one of Stepper’s biggest singles. The intro for the track, which was performed by Super Beagle, was sampled for “Empanadas”. “Cu Oonuh” was previously sampled on Rapper Logic’s “Bobby Tarantino 2” project, its most popular sampling was done on Kanye West’s 2012 track, “Mercy“. Freddie Gibbs is no stranger to using Dancehall/Reggae in his music, and has previously worked with Agent Sasco for his “Bandana” project, and sampled Dancehall music for previous projects. We hope the respective people sampled and their estates are taken care of fairly. “Alfredo 2” is out now.

OLDIES SUNDAY: A.R.P. – Selena (1998)


It’s “Oldies Sunday“, and today’s selection is for the smokers. We go back to the 90s to check out Jamaican group A.R.P., and the single, “Selena“.

Produced by Paul Henton on the “M-16 Riddim” and released in 1998, A.R.P. is all about smoking on the best of herbs, and the ladies who love them in, “Selena”. The group, comprised of Orville “Da’Ville” Thomas, Roger “Mitch” Mitchell, Collin “Leon” Gilbert, Patrick “Patchino” Hylton, and Ormando “Orand” Rose-Green, delivered smooth vocals with a flow that plays well with a smoke session, and for those times when you’re getting cozy with the special person. “Selena” became a hit for the group, and helped to place them in the mainstream.

Since the release of “Selena”, A.R.P. went on to become a prominent group in Dancehall/Reggae. They scored big with collaborations with Beenie Man, dealt with a short-lived beef with T.O.K., and released more music until parting ways in the early 2000s. Da’Ville and Mitch went solo, but Da’ville rose to becoming one of Jamaica’s in-demand vocalists for a number of years. They continued to work together through collaborations on Da’Ville’s solo projects, but never reformed. “Selena” continues to be remembered by fans and music lovers.

Tenor Blue Pays Tribute To the 80s With “Rub A Dub Stylee (Dub)”


US-based R&B/Reggae Artist Tenor Blue has been on the scene for a number of years delivering music that plays heavily into his influences. With a love for R&B, Reggae, Pop, Hip Hop, and Jazz, he experimented with their sounds to make music that’s not only unique to him, but to the listener. He has been holding his own for over 2 decades, and continues to find new listeners and spaces. Earlier this year, he made some noise with the single, “Rub-A-Dub Stylee“, and recently he took it to a different place with a Dub version.

Tenor Blue pays tribute to the growth of the Dancehall and Dub era in 80s Jamaican music with the release of “Rub-A-Dub Stylee (Dub)“. Produced by Dean Fishback, the song takes us back to the foundation Artists like Supercat, Yellowman, and Sugar Minott, Producers like King Tubby, Lee “Scratch” Perry, and Scientist, and fans of Dub will be grooving to this one. The original version of Tenor’s single continues to make its rounds music and video streams, and is ready to take the new version on the road this year.  Respect to the originators.

.@1RealMoulaUE Doubles Up With “Chess Moves” Remixes

Both Steez and Gavin have maintained a presence in their respective lanes, make Moula’s return to the scene even more official. What’s next for MoulaUE? Stay tuned.
