Love can be a beautiful thing if used properly. While many use and abuse in the name of love, there are others who cherish who they choose to love. For New York/

Pablo YG Reconnects With A Friend One Last Time In “D.I.E.”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Life is just for living they say, and one day you pass away. While we can’t go back in time to relive certain memories with certain people, we just have to cherish things and people who are no longer with us. Dancehall Artist Pablo YG understands that death is inevitable, but he can’t help miss the people that played vital roles in his life. He speaks on it in the video for the track, “D.I.E.“.

Directed by Khingcam, Pablo YG is seen visiting the spot where one of his friends passed away from, only to be met with the living dead. His late friend appears thanks to being in purgatory, and Pablo gets to spend some time with him and reminisce until that friend is gone for good. Sometimes we wish we could get even 5 minutes with that special person, but all we have are memories to keep them alive in our hearts. “D.I.E.” appears on Pablo YG’s recently released “Bad Juvi” mixtape. R.I.P. to our loved ones, and may they rest well in the afterlife.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Nahki – Original Ninja (1989)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Happy Oldies Sunday! In our last post, we highlighted Artists who were influenced by Caribbean music, and today is no different. The country that our next Artist originates from has a longstanding music history with Jamaica, and the relationship is still strong today. For today’s selection, we head over to Japan to check out Nahki’s “Original Ninja“.

Produced by King Jammys and released through Jammy’s Records in 1989, Nahki stepped out with a single that helped to introduce the world to Japanese Dancehall. Heavily influenced by Jamaica, Nahki adopted Patois, and delivered with a melody and stance like he was one of the top Dancehall acts in those times. A lover of Reggae music since the 70s, it was a chance meeting with Reggae/Dancehall Icon Sugar Minott that gave him a chance to hone his skills, and make solid bonds with fellow Artists and Producers in Japan, and Jamaica. “Original Ninja” was a hit for Nahki, and the track was featured on his debut album, “Baddest Japanese” that was released in 1990.

Since the release of “Original Ninja”, Nahki went on to release a few more albums, scored more hits, maintained “Reggae Japansplash” which he helped to start in 1985, and etched his place in the history books. He is widely regarded as a pioneer in Japanese Dancehall, an Ambassador for Dancehall & Reggae, and he helped to influence generations of talent from Japan. “Original Ninja” is still recognized today along with many of Nahki’s releases.

Thank You Nahki For This Classic!

Nahki、この古典的な作品をありがとう!

Vybz Kartel & @PopcaanMusic’s “Dull Colour” Gets A Visual

Posted on by swadedavillain

A few weeks ago, we highlighted that Vybz Kartel and Popcaan reunited on the single, “Dull Colour“. The track has received praise and positive feedback since then, and people have been asking for more content from them. The request has been fulfilled as there is now a music video for the track.

Directed by Face Xpression, fans get a chance to see Popcaan perform “Dull Colour” with a few highlights to the “World Boss” through. The video also gives us a story of a young man who is ambitious, but has been having a rough time securing work in Jamaica. Later in the video he is suggested by friends to get work overseas, and life turned around for him in the end. As “Dull Colour” makes its way to more ears, the video is sure to do very well. It’s another Gaza reunion.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Kraff continues to keep his production line busy, and he is covering more ground with his live performances. The “1 Buduchop” boss recently released the visual for the track, “Julius Caesar“.

Shot in Canada and directed by The Knemesis, Kraff belts out lyrics like a mad poet on “Julius Caesar”. Over production by Droptop Records, he makes bold statements, reflects on his rise, and puts the pieces together that will make him a greater Artist over time. A clean visual to support the track, and Kraff is looking to keep things more interesting as the year progresses. He was a part of a small feud recently, but that won’t get in the way of his mission. Get familiar with him if you haven’t already.

.@MyaPlanet9 Links Up With Bounty Killa For “Whine”

Posted on by swadedavillain

US Recording Artist Mýa is a music legend. For nearly 30 years, she has built herself an impressive resumé that highlights her career as a triple threat. She influenced generations of stars, and she stays being creative. Her love for Jamaica was never a secret, and she returned to the Island some time ago to collaborate with one of Jamaica’s music icons on the track, “Whine“.

With a music video directed by Josh Sikkema and Derek Brown, Mýa teams up with Bounty Killa for a track that will have the ladies dancing up a storm. If you need a lil help with the moves, a few familiar faces including Latonya Style, DaniiBoo, and Pata Skeng are in the visual to get you on the right foot. The DJ Hardwerk production finds Mýa and Bounty having fun throughout, and it continues to show that Mýa never lost a step. For those unfamiliar, this is not Mýa’s first time doing Dancehall, remember she has hits with Beenie Man, Spice, Jah Cure, and Ding Dong! “Whine” was hinted from 2021, and was announced earlier this year, to see the Artists on screen is a good look. Get ready to dance!
