OLDIES SUNDAY: Wilkins – Margarita (1987)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Break out the outfits, it’s “Hispanic Heritage Month” on “Oldies Sunday“! Hispanic Americans continue to make significant contributions to entertainment, sports, and pop culture, and we have highlighted a number of them over the years. For today’s selection, we go back in time to check out Puerto Rican Artist Wilkins’ “Margarita“.

Produced by Michael Sembello and Randy Waldman and released through WEA in 1987, Wilkins sings for the love of his dreams in, “Margarita”. Armed with uptempo production, Wilkins shares that he desires her greatly, and despite seeing her in his dreams, those are moments he needs to relive. The Salsa single earned the Singer popularity since its release, earning him chart placements, and gold certifications in Latin American, the US, European, African, and Asian markets. The track was also remixed a number of times over the years. “Margarita” was featured on his 1987 album “Paraiso Perdido“, and the 1988 Film, “Salsa“.

Since the release of “Margarita”, Wilkins went on to continue a very successful career. He released over 40 albums before retiring in 2007, but has “unretired” a number of times through tours. Wilkins has built a legacy that will inspire generations, and he is to be celebrated. “Margarita” remains one of his greatest hits.

THANK YOU WILKINS FOR THIS TRACK!

Wayne J Spreads Knowledge About The “Atlantic Trade”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Rt. Excellent Marcus Garvey once said, “Up, you mighty race. Accomplish what you will“. Those words were said nearly 100 years, and still resonate with many people today, including Dancehall/Reggae Artist Wayne J. Recently, he stepped forward with the new single, “Atlantic Trade“.

Produced by Crossfire Entertainment, Wayne J shares a History lesson, and words to get the people going in, “Atlantic Trade”. For those who missed the classes, Wayne shares the timeline dating back to the time of the Tainos in the Caribbean, the invasions of the Spanish, Portuguese, French, Dutch, and English which lead to genocide, colonization, and the Atlantic Slave Trade, to Black people overcoming great oppression, to accomplishing so much today, and fighting to get back what is owed to them from the Colonizers. The Deejay handles the lessons well with his delivery, and ensures that the listener is tuned in to the kind of music that needs to be in more places. It’s all about militancy, and we look forward to more Wayne J like this in the future. Wise up, Black people. The time is now to revolt!

Tommy Lee Sparta & Skeng Triple Up With “Protocol 3”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Nearly 5 years ago, two worlds collided. Spanish Town’s Skeng and Montego Bay’s Tommy Lee Sparta joined forces to make one of the toughest collaborations in the 2020s called, “Protocol“. The duo brought raw energy and a lot of badness to the track, and it became an instant favourite. 2022 saw they recreate magic with “Protocol 2“, and it still possessed that sting from the previous release. Now with “Protocol 3“, can they still produce venom?

Produced by Uncle Recordz, Tommy Lee Sparta and Skeng lock in once again for the release of, “Protocol 3”. We get their signature flows and melodies, and they bring even more aggression here, along with tons of artillery. When the Spartans and Ratty Gang members step forward, it’s a mad and mean situation. They recruit Ink Drops for the official music video, and the visuals did not disappoint here. Both Artists compliment each other with their styles, it’s a surprise that they haven’t released a project together, much less toured together. Maybe this is the precursor to those events. Trouble deh deh.

Future Fambo Gets The Streets Dancing With “Beg You Pardon”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Nowadays, when you hear the name “Future Fambo“, it’s all about funny moments on Social Media, and catchy singles. Having well over 30 years in music can be one thing, but maintaining a presence is to be respected. The past summer saw the Deejay going viral, and being booked and busy, and they aren’t stopped anytime soon. Ready to take on the street dances again, he delivers, “Beg You Pardon“.

Produced by Supa Hype and Ram Jam, Future Fambo keeps it mannerly and eloquent with the release of, “Beg You Pardon”. With a catchy vibe that calls for the Dancers, he emphasizes that disrespect won’t be tolerated in his circle, nor the communities he resides in as they will be dealt with the right fashion. He also shouts out prominent Dons throughout the track. The single was previewed over the past few weeks, with Dancers taking to the streets with new moves, and fans demanding its release. You can catch Fambo at the Airport heading to his next destination, but don’t approach him the wrong way, or else you’ll hear “I beg your pardon?“.

Malie Donn & @Digga_CGM Bring Out The Guns For “Badder Than Dem”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Malie Donn had a great summer, and now it’s time to dominate the rest of the year. With his debut album connecting with many around the world and his recent performance in the UK becoming a viral moment, his confidence and focus are definitely through the roof. Speaking of the UK, he made some connections there, including linking up with Digga, and it resulted in the release of, “Badder Than Dem“.

With a video directed by IJD Films, Malie Donn, Digga, and the crew congregate in the name of badness in the video for, “Badder Than Dem”. The two Artists blend Dancehall and Hip Hop vibes, and stay cool throughout their barrage of aggressive lyrics. Digga has been tapping in with his Jamaican background, and he looks to release even more Island collabs as he was previously on tracks with Masicka, Skillibeng, and Vybz Kartel. Malie Donn is still reeling from the release of “The Golden Child“, and fans can stay tuned for more from him.
