Today’s new music comes from American based singer Shie. Titled “Not Inferior“, she sings about not being inferior to another person despite a name or status. In many societies people feel they should be given more opportunities than others because of their last name or their financial status. At the end of the day we bleed the same blood, breathe the same air, and get buried in the same dirt. Treat people as you would want to be treated. Great song by Shie but what do you think?

In recognition of Jamaica Blog Day I present a post on the subject of Police brutality and abuse in Jamaica. In the Reggae/Dancehall culture the Law Enforcement has been an enemy to many and while their job is to “Protect and Serve“, many members of the Police force go against the creed and abuse their authority and make enemies out of the people who depend on them to bring order and justice in their communities. Many unlawful murders and imprisonments are the result and the tension between residents and Police increases at a rapid rate. The Police and their abuse has been a subject in many songs over the years but today I share a song by someone who experienced it including losing a family member. “Mama Cry” is a song done by singer I-Noble who resides in Trench town, one of the places where Police brutality has occurred over the years. In his song he speaks about the occurrences between residents and Police in inner-city communities on a regular basis, the effects of people that go through the situations, and how many corrupt Policemen collect accolades for their wrongdoings. Produced by Lanz and Christina Grand of Reggae Embassy, check out the song below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
In the last episode of the “Twisted Series” we saw Shawn confessing to his girl about the recent events that occurred with his girlfriend surprising him in the end. This week his girlfriend recalled her turn of events and we even see a new character named “Rick“. Less words and more watching, It’s all about a good laugh from the College Access Team. Cherish the moment for you’ll never know when it’s your last, word to Craig and his last banana chips. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
Today’s new music comes from Reggae artist Chronixx. Titled “Champion” and produced by ZJ Heno on the Passionate Riddim, Chronixx provides positive music with a mellow riddim accompanying it. Providing motivating lyrics, this is a feel good song by the young artist. No matter how bad things have become and if people you care about abandon you in the darkest hour, remember to call on Jah because he’s there.

After releasing his freestyle recently, Dreggaequickly dropped off the video treatment for “Open Letter“. Shot in Downtown Atlanta and directed by Duane G, Dre shows you how he turned Atlanta into Jamaica. Out of spite he just might flood these streets. What you think? Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
Today’s new mixtape comes from DJ Dollaz, and it promises to be a hot summer. Titled “Hip Hop N RnB Mixx“, this is over an hour worth of some of the hottest R&B and Hip Hop Music out from the likes of Wale, J Cole, Future, Miguel, and many others. While it’s a good mix to get your ready for the summer, Dollaz needs to tone down on the sound effects. What you think though? It’s been a while since I’ve heard a DJ Dollaz mix.
