Kong also became the Island’s leading Producer having worked with everyone from Toots and The Maytals, Desmond Dekker, and many others. Today, we salute his work with our latest Playlist, “Sampling Leslie Kong“.

Ai Milly Shares “Superstars” While Finalizing Upcoming “PGLT” Album

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Ai Milly is gearing up a busy few months as he finalizes his upcoming album, “PGLT“. Fans have been anticipating the project for some time, and is expected to be heavily supported when released. Having shared a number of singles this year, he keeps it going with the release of the video for the single, “Superstars“.

Directed by KD Visuals, it’s all about loyalty in Ai Milly’s “Superstars” video. What started as a Police stop, took a turn for something bad as Milly had to entrust his lady to take possession of his Firearm so that he doesn’t get arrested. The move got him out of hot water, but his lady had to take the fall, and had to do time in Prison. While she sports the orange jumpsuit, Milly keeps in touch with her on the outside, ensuring that she’s taken care of while he awaits her return to freedom. “Superstars” was produced by Krush Flo Records, and is expected to be included on the upcoming “PGLT” album. Ready for new Ai Milly?

OLDIES SUNDAY: @MarcAnthony – You Sang To Me (2000)

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Month of June is recognized as “Caribbean American Heritage Month“, and today we close the Month on “Oldies Sunday“ with a Singer who has solidified himself as a legend. Today’s selection comes from Puerto Rican-American Singer/Actor Marc Anthony with “You Sang To Me“.

Co-Produced with Cory Rooney and released through Columbia Records in 2000, Marc Anthony was all about falling in love in “You Sang To Me”. Sometimes the person you want to love and make a solid foundation was in front of you all this time, and this song taps into that scenario as Anthony shares his connection with that person, and the first time he realized he was falling in love with her. Anthony delivers with smooth vocals over a solid production, and it was bound to command the listener’s attention in the first few seconds. According to a couple Interviews, “You Sang To Me” was inspired by Anthony’s relationship with Singer/Actress Jennifer Lopez as he fell in love with her while being married to another Woman. Eventually they became an item with Marriage and children, and divorced after 10 years. “You Sang To Me” was featured on his 1999 self-titled 4th Album, which went on to sell 4 Million copies. “You Sang To Me” was success for Marc Anthony as the single went #1 on Music Charts in the US, Canada, and Croatia, and was nominated for a GRAMMY in 2001. The song was certified Gold in Austria, Norway, and Sweden, but went MultiPlatinum in Jamaica as it is on almost every R&B/Souls Mixtape, and has lived on Jamaican Radio for a very long time. A number of remixes of “You Sang To Me” was released in 2000, and a Spanish version was released in 2006 on a compilation project.

Since the release of “You Sang To Me”, Marc Anthony went on to become one of the highest selling Salsa Artists of all time, earning a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records. He has sold over 12 Million albums worldwide, scored 4 GRAMMY awards, won 8 Latin GRAMMY awards, is a 29-time Lo Nuestro Awards winner, appeared in a number of Films, TV Shows, and Stage productions, is a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins, and has been involved in a number of Philanthropic activities and organizations. Marc Anthony has accomplished a lot over the years, but “You Sang To Me” remains one of his biggest hits.

Thank You Marc Anthony For This Classic!

Things Get Exciting On The Worksite In Laden’s “Construction”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Everyday is a working day, but sometimes there needs to be a break. The 9 to 5 can bring on a different type of fatigue, so rest and relaxation in various forms are needed. For Dancehall Artist Laden, his work day suddenly turns into a party in the video for the single, “Construction“.

Directed by Top Shootah, the worksite gets exciting for Laden in “Construction”. Construction work is one of the hardest jobs to do, but thanks to the appearance of some lovely ladies (including emerging Video Vixen Zho), Laden finds himself getting to work on their beauty sensual features, and their enticing dance moves. “Construction” was produced by Slyda Di Wizard, and is one of a number of tracks Laden has prepared this year directly for the ladies. No matter your position on the worksite, when the ladies come around, it’s break time.
