Sia’s “Cheap Thrills” Featuring @DuttyPaul Gets Featured In @Marvel’s “Black Widow” Film!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recently, Marvel Studios released their long awaited Film, “Black Widow“. The movie finds the Comic Book heroine going through some quests between the “Captain America: Civil War“, and the “Avengers: Infinity Wars” Films. Directed by Cate Shortland, the Film has a terrific score thanks to Lorne Balfe, but one of the highlights in the Film came in the form of the inclusion of Pop Artist Sia and Dancehall Artist Sean Paul’s “Cheap Thrills“.

Produced by Greg Kurstin, the Synthpop/Dancehall track was released in 2016, and was the second single on Sia’s “This Is Acting” album. The song was originally made without Sean Paul and was shopped to Rihanna for her album “Anti”, but was rejected. The Sean Paul featured version peaked at #1 on the US Hot 100 Billboard Charts, and was certified multiplatinum. “Cheap Thrills” was played in the scene before Black Widow encounters one of the Film’s antagonists, “Taskmaster“. “Black Widow” is available for streaming on the Disney+ platform.

Krys Evans Makes Her Dream A Reality With Sizzla Featured, “Over Everything”

Posted on by swadedavillain

There are some of us who believe in destiny, and making things happen. We may have visions, or we trust a higher power with our hopes and dreams, or we just put in the work to make them come true. Sometimes they manifest immediately, or they never happen, or they take a longer than usual time to unfold. For Queens, NY Recording Artist Krys Evans, she’s making her dreams a reality through her new single, “Over Everything“.

Produced by Dennis “Jah D” Fearon for JAHLEP Records, Krys Evans’ “Over Everything” single is a dream come true as she collaborates with one of her musical heroes, Reggae/Dancehall Icon Sizzla Kalonji. The song goes out to all the couples who have weathered many storms and faced numerous challenges, but are still strong together, inspiring others in the process. Krys and Sizzla share not only great vocals, but lyrics on what it takes for couples stay together, and making that relationship last. While many speak about “Relationship goals” on Social Media, it takes a lot of work, and two people who genuinely are about each other.

“Growing up, I listened to a lot of Sizzla, and he has influenced the way I do music.” shared Krys Evans. “Years ago, I used to work as a Bartender at BB Kings (in New York), and Sizzla was a featured act one night. Although his appearance wasn’t during my shift, I traded shifts with a coworker just to witness his performance while I worked. Fast forward a few years, I had this song, and it needed a male Artist who would take it to the next level. In my head, I wanted Sizzla to be that guest feature, and I wasn’t gonna let this song go until it happened. We made it happen however, and it’s a blessing! I’m eternally grateful to Sizzla Kalonji and his team.” “Over Everything” is Krys’ first release since her debut album, “Resilient” in 2020, and will be following up the single with a music video in the coming weeks. A Dancehall single titled, “Get The Money” is set to follow the single later this year. Keep working on your dreams.

Deeclef Spreads Love To All The Women Through His “Agape” EP

Posted on by swadedavillain

Mandeville born/US based Recording Artist Deeclef is seeing his brand rise in a drastic way in recent months. Having gained a following thanks to singles like, “Bull Inna Pen”, “Constancy”, “Guide My Path”, and “Go Hard”, he aims to cover all bases, deliver more quality music, and become one of the top Dancehall/Reggae Artists of the new decade. While his music connects with people from all walks of life, he has the ladies on his radar for his debut EP, “Agape”.

Inspired by the Greek origin of “Agape” that means the undiluted love of God, Deeclef sought to add a sensual element to the word, but focuses on offering his love, time, talents, and energy to all women on the project. In a time where the headlines speak on women going through abusive and violent situations, Deeclef’s “Agape EP” brings forth positive music that uplifts, entertains, and reassures women that they are loved, they deserve every good thing, and they should be treated with nothing but love and respect. The “Agape EP” consists of 7 tracks, and features production from Sartout Records, Shyheim Entertainment, Collaboration Recordz, SC-21 Productions, and Halcyon Music who all helped to provide a great ambiance. Dancehall Artist Fully Bad is the sole featured act on the “Agape EP” on a track called, “Dutty Love”. In support of the EP, Deeclef released the single and video for the track, “Sexy Physique” in early 2021, and has plans to release more music videos, and specialized Social Media content in the following weeks after the EP’s release.

“They say that Chivalry is dead, and I wanted to step forward and debunk that statement” shared Deeclef on the making of the “Agape EP”. “I still believe that good gestures are performed for women, and there are some out there who have yet to experience good love. With my project, I wanted to bring forward that unconditional love that women deserve, and enforce that they are protected from all manner of evil some have been facing through abuse, and domestic violence. Me and my team carefully put this project together through brainstorming sessions as we wanted to provide an air of love, let the listener feel the sensual moods throughout the EP, and have them see the pictures that we’ve painted for each track. We believe that the ‘Agape EP’ will be warmly embraced by everyone when it’s released, and will be a contender for one of the best projects of 2021”.

.@RyginKingO Covers The Classic “Stop That Train” With The Late U-Roy!

Posted on by swadedavillain

In February 2021, the world lost a Music legend, and a Jamaican Icon named Ewart “U-Roy” Beckford. A man who has greatly contributed to the ever changing musical landscape, you can call him the Originator of how you put the lyrics together. While the world misses him, there were talks about putting together a final album for the great U-Roy. It was revealed with the title, “Solid Gold U-Roy“, and one of the singles that made the album features one of Dancehall’s hottest acts, Rygin King on a cover of the classic single, “Stop That Train“.

Produced by Sharna Liguz, Youth, and Zak Starkey, we see two Artists from two great generations join forces to give us something different. The single covers the 1967 version of the Keith & Tex Rocksteady version of “Stop That Train”. The 1967 version is cover/remake of The Spanishtonians’ 1965 Ska original that speaks of a woman whose boyfriend is leaving her via train, and she wants to join him on board. U-Roy also released a cover version in 2009/10. Both Keith & Tex and U-Roy & Rygin’s versions speak from a man’s perspective however. While many are familiar with Rygin King’s style of music, they’d be surprised to know what he enjoys in his downtime, and seeing this collaboration is just a fraction of what can happen. With the late U-Roy’s signature toasting/deejaying, this an “OG meets the Young General” moment, and we know the posthumous U-Roy album has a lot more gems. This could pave the way for a lot more collaborations like this, and we’re here for it! Call us up so we can be a part of it. For more U-Roy, check out our special U-Roy Playlist here. “Solid Gold U-Roy” is now available for pre-order through Trojan Records, and will be released on July 16, 2021. Continue sleeping in peace, Daddy U-Roy!
