There are Kings, and then there are Dancehall Kings. Beenie Man is one of those Dancehall Kings, and fresh off of his US Visa being reinstated, he made a visit to the Drink Champs Podcast platform for an Interview.

With nearly 50 years in music, Beenie Man joined Rapper Noreaga, DJ EFN, Media Personality K Foxx, and Director/Producer iRossta to speak about a lot of things. For well over 3 hours, Beenie shares his musical journey, how some of his hit singles came about, his thoughts about some of his peers, his musical impact, the “King of the Dancehall“, the meaning of “Zagga Zow“, his classic Verzuz with Bounty Killa, past beefs including with Bounty, his achievements, and a lot more.

Editor’s Note: Drinking Game: Take a shot for every time Beenie Man says “WHAT?!”

You can’t deny Beenie Man’s impact and contributions to Dancehall Music, and he has earned his place as a “Column” in the culture. The Interview shares a lot, and minus the “twanging“, listeners will have a good time tuning in to this one. Who do you think could play Beenie Man in a Biopic?

The new year expects more content from him, and he’s fulfilling orders already. Earlier, he released the video for the track, “Rita’s Revenge“.

Directed by Ian Simon and Neil-Anthony Watson, King Cruff steps out for the family with “Rita’s Revenge”. Featured on his debut EP, Cruff gives the people a delivery that lets listeners know he’s gonna be here for a long time, and do his part in branching out with the Marley name. Taking cues from his grandparents, he’s not holding back in his lyrics, and the flashy visual highlights more of the creativity that we’ve been paying attention to. King Cruff looks to hit the road this year, and he will be making his debut appearance at the popular SXSW Music Festival this March in Austin, Texas. Roll with the Tuff Gong.

.@MrVegasMusic Stays Positive For 2025 With “Alive”


When you hear the name “Mr. Vegas” sometimes, you’re hearing about some commentary from him on Social Media, or some drama. The other times, you’re hearing that he released some good music, and for 27 years, he has released a number of great singles. Showing that he still has it, he starts the new year on a good note with, “Alive (Year 2025)“.

Released through MV Music, Mr. Vegas starts the year with a positive vibe, and an energy to keep you dancing and staying uplifted in “Alive (Year 2025)”. Vegas looks back at the past year that had a few negative patches, and encourages us all to make this year our best one. In the accompanying Music Video, he promotes staying healthy, and encourages us to look out for one another as he is seen helping a number of people. One of the persons he has helped out recently, was former Jamaica Popular Song Contestant Clive “Snowball” Brown. He gained popularity for his 1994 entry, “Chiquitita“, but years later fell on some hard times. Vegas played a part in helping him out, and the video highlights them interacting and having a happy moment. No matter what they can say about Mr. Vegas, he’ll drop a really good song. Tune in fi di new year.

Witty Shares Visual For “Louis V”


2025 may just be Witty’s year. The past year found the public proclaiming the Deejay to be someone unworthy of the coveted “Buss“, but he has been putting in the work, getting their attention in the process. That’s still a win, but the hit song to put him in the mainstream is pending. Nonetheless, while his name is being called in posts, videos, and tweets, he’s releasing content like the Music Video for the track, “Louis V“.

Directed by Bussweh Visuals and starring emerging Video Vixen Zho, Witty busy at work in the garage in “Louis V”. He has his eyes on the bad gyal dem, plotting and scheming on getting to the money, and of course rocking some Louis Vuitton gear. The naysayers may come along, but Witty is busy building a catalogue that might become valuable in the future. “Louis V” was released through Pharmacy Records/Questimes, and was previewed a number of times on Social Media. This may be his last year of being “Unknown“.

.@MicalTeja & Coutain Celebrate “Riddim” In New Collaboration


Today (January 24), we celebrate 13 years since our first official post on this platform. Thanks to those who have been here from the start, and we look forward to doing even more. We’re also celebrating new music, this time it’s from Trini Acts Mical Teja and Coutain as they share their new collaboration called, “Riddim“.

Co-Produced by Mical Teja, Tano, and Supayouth, “Riddim” is a celebration of the music, and its many forms by Teja and Coutain. Whatever your flavour of music, it is sure to call your name wherever you are, and you have to answer it. Teja and Coutain share melodies throughout, and deliver a song that is bound to ignite something great in you. The accompanying Music Video, directed by Captain Plexx, features two characters who come from different backgrounds and stories, with them being connected by the Riddim that calls them throughout. The video highlights the Steelpan, the Tassa Druma number of Mas characters including the Jab Molassie, the Midnight Robber, the Moko Jumbie, and the Dame Lorraine, and traditional East Indian dance, all of which are a part of Trinidad’s culture, and should be preserved. This visual is for the culture, and should inspire more Artists to tap into their respective cultures. We hope that our readers/viewers tune in to this, and be inspired.
