.@Kris_Karz Returns With New Single, “Gush”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist/Musician/Producer Kris-Karz is back with new music. Fresh from a short hiatus, Karz looks to stay consistent with new content, reconnect with old listeners, and solidify new relationships. His return brings out a new focus, and he makes things interesting with the release of, “Gush“.

The self-produced “Gush” single was released through Kngly Studios, and Kris-Karz aims to have the attention of the ladies for this one. He sets the tone with the opener, “Get sexy to this…“, and from there, it’s all about breaking the tensions, things getting hot and heavy, moans, and dirty talk. When it’s all over, there will be pillow talk, blown minds, and whatever stress that was there before, will cease to exist. Kris-Karz has been catering to the ladies with his selection of tunes over time, and we can expect “Gush” to make waves (pun intended maybe?) in the coming weeks and months. We encourage you to reach out to your favourite DJ or Radio platform to keep this one in rotation. Ladies are encouraged to make videos dancing to, lip-syncing to, and being sexy to the new single. Be on the look out for content in support of “Gush”, and more offerings from the US-based Recording Artist/Musician/Producer. If you haven’t been familiar with Kris-Karz, click here.

.@DemarcoDaDon Stays Cautious On “White Sugar Look Like Salt”

Posted on by swadedavillain

They say seeing is believing, but in some cases your eyes can betray you. When it comes to people, you don’t always see and know their true intentions under the smiles and charisma. Dancehall Artist Demarco has had his share of people being deceptive towards him, and he speaks on it in “White Sugar Look Like Salt“.

Produced by Xtreme On The Beat/CashFlow Records/True Gift Ent., Demarco stays cautious on “White Sugar Look Like Salt”. There are people in the world with an inviting exterior who deep down have cruel intentions, and won’t hesitate to do you harm. In Demarco’s words, “Me nuh trust dem a bl***cl***!“. He is aware of the people who spoke ill of him when he worked to make his life better, and he has experienced the times when the people he helped wanted to end his life. Be careful of the paths you trod, and the friends you keep. Stay safe out there.

With his strong presence in Dancehall, the Deejay looks to make this Summer his with the Afrobeats-tinged production. The year already found him burning up the scene with a number of singles including “Lumbah“, “Love Problem“, and “Bubble Gum“, and he is not letting the energy die down no matter what. In a PR statement released through Signal Records, he shared, “Flava is about living large, chasing that paper and staying true to yourself. When I hit the studio for this one, I wanted to capture that vibe of ambition and confidence, and I think we nailed it. Flava is like an anthem for anyone hustling and grinding to make it big.“. A Music Video in support of the single is in its final stages. Look out for more from Fada Dipo.

Natalie Bergman’s Cover Of The Slickers’ “Johnny Too Bad” Featured In @RoadHouseMovie

Posted on by swadedavillain

Jamaican Music and Pop Culture will always go hand in hand. From TV Shows, to Film, to a way of life, Jamaica’s influence is strong. Recently, the Amazon Prime Video platform released “Road House“. A remake of the the 1989 cult classic that starred the late Patrick Swayze, the 2024 Film stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Conor McGregor, and it finds the character Dalton (Gyllenhaal), an ex-UFC Fighter, who gets a job as a Bouncer in a Florida Keys Road House, and the trouble that finds him there. The Film features a soundtrack that is filled with a number of Bands who play Rock and Pop, but a familiar song, covered by Singer Natalie Bergman of Wild Belle, could be heard in a scene.

During an early part of “Road House”, Natalie Bergman and Wild Belle covered Jamaican Rocksteady/Reggae group The Slickers’ “Johnny Too Bad“. Produced by Byron Lee and released through the Panther Label in 1970, “Johnny Too Bad” was about a Gunman who was known to committing various crimes. The song highlights his crimes, but was given a warning that when it’s his time for his activities and life to end, there will be no escaping them. The single quickly gained popularity after its release, and was included in the soundtrack for the 1972 Jamaican classic Film, “The Harder They Come“, which starred Jimmy Cliff. The song was covered a number of times before Bergman’s, and included versions by UB40, Sublime, Dennis Brown, and Bunny Wailer. “Road House” is out now on Amazon Prime Video.

“Check Yourself”, And Tune In To Motto, Arthur Allain, & French Man’s New Tune

Posted on by swadedavillain

St. Lucia Carnival is around the corner, so now is a good time to get familiar with the tunes. Recording Artist Motto is on the job with new music, and you know he will be bringing the energy. Recently, he released the new single, “Check Yourself“.

Produced by Team Foxx and EN Production, Motto’s “Check Yourself” features Arthur Allain, and French Man. Together, they call out the energy drainers, the spies, the gossipers, and those who study badmind to keep their business to themselves, and go stay far away from them. In other words, gweh, and mind your flocking business. The Artists make for a great combination, and we can expect this one to be played at high volumes everywhere. “Check Yourself” is the latest in the batch of new “Dennery Segment” music to be released, and we can expect the vibes to turn up even more as we get closer to Carnival season in St. Lucia. Tell badmind to go the other way, it’s your moment to shine!

OLDIES SUNDAY: Heavy D & The Boyz – Mood For Love (1989)

Posted on by swadedavillain

On “Oldies Sunday” we celebrate the classics and the underrated gems, and we aim to bring listeners back to a time when they first enjoyed the selection, and introduce new listeners to something they’ve never heard before. Some of our Artists are Caribbean-born, some are born overseas but highly influenced by the Caribbean. For today’s selection, we highlight a Jamaican-born Artist who grew up overseas, but never left his Caribbean background behind. He is the late Recording Artist/Producer/Dancer/Actor Heavy D, and we feature the track, “Mood For Love“.

Produced by the cousins Heavy D and Pete Rock and featuring Eddie F, “Trouble” T. Roy, and G-Whiz who form “Heavy D & The Boyz“, “Mood For Love” was released through MCA Records/Uptown Records in 1989. It’s all about love on “Mood For Love”, and everything good that comes along with it. The song finds Heavy D draws inspirations from Reggae/Dancehall, R&B, and Hip Hop, and delivers in a Deejay cadence with melodic parts throughout. The song also sampled Yellowman’s “Zungguzungguguzungguzeng” and Pat Kelly’s “I’m In The Mood For Love“. Heavy D encourages love to flow on through his song, and it quickly gained popularity from many listeners. While it wasn’t officially released as a single, it was featured on Heavy D & The Boyz’s Platinum-selling sophomore album, “Big Tyme“.

Since the release of “Mood For Love”, Heavy D and his “Heavy D & The Boyz” collective went on to release more music, and enjoy more success. “Trouble” T. Roy passed away in 1990, and was the inspiration for the classic Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth track, “They  Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)“. Born in Mandeville, Manchester and raised in Mt. Vernon, New York, Heavy D become an important figure in Hip Hop, played a role in the development of a few Artists including Soul for Real, never turning his back on his roots and collaborated with the likes of Super Cat, Frankie Paul, and Buju Banton, acted in a number of Films and TV Shows, performed the Theme songs for “In Living Color” and “Madtv“, and even made hits with Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, and B.B. King. Heavy D passed away on November 8, 2011, and despite the reports, his death has been a part of a few conspiracy theories in relation to Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, who has been the target of a number of investigations over the years. “Mood For Love” remains one of Heavy D’s more memorable tunes.

Thank You Heavy D For This Classic! S.I.P.
