Jahmiel Keeps “Real People” Close In New Video

Posted on by swadedavillain

In a world filled with challenges, corruption, and confusion, sometimes it’s hard to find genuine people who will be there for you. Dealing with fickle and disloyal people can take a toll on you, and many have lost hope. Dancehall/Reggae Artist Jahmiel is keeping his hope alive, and like his new single, he believes “Real People” are still out there.

Over production by Sweet Music, Jahmiel shares that people have let him down many times, but he still believes that there are genuine people out there on “Real People”. He makes note of those who are there for him when he’s at his lowest, and keeps distance from fair weather friends. Some of his rifts have been made public over the years, so he knows how challenging it is to keep real people close. The single is accompanied by a music video directed by 9MileVisualz, and it finds him among some of his real people, those who have seen him at his best, and at his worst. The world is crazy, hope there are some good people in your corner.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Lord Composer – Hill And Gully Ride (1954)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s another Oldies Sunday, no matter where you are in the world. When you talk about hits, Jamaica has a ton of them spanning decades. This time around, we go back to the 1950’s to check out Lord Composer’s “Hill And Gully Ride/Mandeville Road“.

Released through Motta’s Recording Studio (Fun Fact: This was Jamaica’s 1st privately owned Recording Studio, and was owned by Stanley Motta) in 1954, “Hill And Gully Ride/Mandeville Road” was a medley Mento single recorded by Lord Composer and his Silver Seas Hotel Orchestra. “Hill And Gully Ride” was a dancing tune that had a few instructions while “Mandeville Road” was about people going to Manchester to break stones, a profession that many did in those days before the advancements in Technology. Both songs were done over percussion, strings, and a Fife solo, with Composer being lead Vocalist with backing vocals. “Hill And Gully Ride/Mandeville Road” were Folks Songs, belonging in a department called “Digging Songs“. They were included with another medley single on a Record, and sounded nothing like what was out in those times. The medley was covered by a number of Folk Singers, and two versions of it would later become the theme music for the popular “Hill An’ Gully Ride” TV series in Jamaica. The lyrics and cadence of “Hill And Gully Ride” were sampled by a number of Artists including YellowMan and Busy Signal, while “Mandeville Road” was sampled by Dancehall group T.O.K.

Lord Composer never released many songs when he was active, and only had an LP’s worth of singles since the release of “Hill And Gully Ride/Mandeville Road”. Composer passed away in 1990, and his music is celebrated to this day in parts of the world.

Thank You Lord Composer For Your ClassicS!

Ahead Of Local Gov. Elections, Christopher Martin & Valiant Share “Fight For Better”

Posted on by swadedavillain

On Monday, February 26, Jamaica will head to the polls as a part of the Local Government Elections. Things do get tense during election time, and there have been parades of political colours Islandwide thanks to various rallies. While music has always been a part of these festivities, Dancehall Artists Christopher Martin and Valiant step out with a message on, “Fight For Better“.

Released through GMR Records, Christopher Martin and Valiant seek unity in “Fight For Better”. While there have been many fights over party colours with some becoming violent over the years, Martin and Valiant are spreading a message of doing away with the politics and politrix, and unite the people for a better Jamaica. They call out corrupt Ministers and those who practice evil deeds, and in the KRE8-directed Music Video, they highlight and encourage unity in all areas, encouraging the nation to follow these examples. May these elections be safe, free, and fair. No man is an Island.

King Cruff x Runkus "Fallback" on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Canada #Dancehall #DancehallPop #MusicVideo #13thStreetPromotions #KingCruff #Runkus #KitWeyman #Fallback #BobMarleyBeach #Caribbean

.@KingCruff Takes His Music To New Levels With @RunkusInno-Featured, “FallBack”

Posted on by swadedavillain

2023 was the warmup for King Cruff, and 2024 will be the championship round! After scoring big with the StoneBwoy and Jag.Huligan-featured “SHEDOENEED“, Cruff has become quite the commodity in the months that followed. From Interviews to live performances, things have climbed a few levels in the months that followed. The Tuff Gong Collective/UMusic signee is charged up, so prepare to be thrilled with the release of, “Fallback“.

Teaming up with Recording Artist Runkus, King Cruff gives us “Heartbreak Dancehall” on “Fallback”. They deal with Women who love them like the seasons, and they deal with her accordingly. Over smooth production by Banx & Ranx, Runkus handles hook duties in his signature way while Cruff shares the saga. Great combination aside, the track is accompanied by music video directed by Kit Weyman, and it gives us the feeling of a Horror movie (Think Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”, but shot in Jamaica). The video not only features the Artists, but the beautiful leading ladies Roginea Dixon, Annaje, and Smiles Buchanan, and parts of Jamaica including the famous Bob Marley Beach (Which has been included in a series of topics and petitions where it needs to be protected, and allowed free public access). “Fallback” is expected to become one of the big hits for the year, and we expect it to become one that is widely loved on Social Media. If you still aren’t familiar with King Cruff, look here to get started.
