Recently, we at 13thStreetPromotions had the opportunity to listen to an early copy of Dancehall Artist Khaos’ “Deception EP”. With today being the day of the project’s release, we present to you the review! – SwadeDaVillain
Words By @Sef_Jo
Let me start by saying this, I sincerely appreciate Khaos for keeping 13thStreetPromotions in the loop where Deception is concerned. Very professional looks especially where promotion is concerned and I must say that I’ve definitely learnt a lot through working with him. The graphics, pics, audio, videos etc. are A1!
I notice that the theme “One Fuck” is prevalent throughout the entirety of the 5-track extended play. This keeps the theme relevant! Very good job.
REVIEW
One Fuck The original. Khaos made this into a household name and it continues to beat the streets hard. As a true “trapskull”, I have to admit that I wasn’t 100% sold on “One Fuck” after its initial release. Worse, when I heard “Make Love” [after One Fuck was released as a single] and even more recently, “Don’t Remix”. What had me completely stunned though was the reception of “One Fuck” by Khaos’ core fan base. The Deception EP’s leading single is literally a social sensation that has had much of its impact on and throughout the Jamaican Twitter community. There are threads upon threads related to the hashtag #OneFuck and for that reason, I have come to understand what makes “One Fuck” successful as a single, in and of itself. With a clean version available, Khaos has been able to market the track to hardcore fans as well as to DJs [local + international] for radio spins.
Search Fi Love
Now this… connected with me on a more personal level and just like with “One Fuck” it took me a good couple listens to fully wrap my head around the concept. I am not unfamiliar with the actual “Search For Love” but let’s discuss the immediate switch up; though the drum kit [rhythm] remains similar to the previous track, there is the sound of a harp that strikingly contrasts the way Khaos lets us know that he is in no way, shape or form interested in falling for his “One Fuck”. The contrast here depicts how sweet her touch was/is but Khaos shakes us [listeners] back to reality, this is Deception!
Repping the 876 and The 6ix is Rapper/Producer Chillaa with “Lead You On“. Featuring Co-Production from Hypnotic, this one’s for the ladies as he speaks on wanting to chill, roll and smoke a few, and have a little fun without her feeling like he’s leading her on and making things complicated. A song that you can throw on the daily playlist and build a vibe to with. For the “Babes“, “Bonafides” and “Tings“. Do your thing baby girl.

Dancehall Artiste Balino recently previewed a new single titled “Deep”. The Artiste is confident that this single will do well locally and internationally. The single, produced by DJ Kunteh of DJ Kunteh Records, has been doing exceptionally well and has been gaining steam in Jamaica and the wider Caribbean. Balino couldn’t be happier with the feedback that he has been getting.
“I have been receiving excellent vibes in street dances and the audience. Majority of the Selectors and Disc Jocks are requesting dubs and jingles.”said Balino. The single is now available on iTunes and is distributed by 21st Hapilos Digital. The artiste gets his inspirations from personal experiences. “I was inspired to write this song. It was from a personal experience with a female. As an up-and-coming Dancehall Artiste I write from my personal experiences, therefore it intrigued me to create this song.” said the Artiste.
Balino is currently working in the studio on his new single called “Sky Life” featuring Ravers Clavers. The song is being produced by New York based Black Eagle Records.
Just a few days after the release of Fever, the first single from Vybz Kartel’s “King of the Dancehall” album, the accompanying video has already amassed over 300 thousand views on YouTube. The video was directed by Jay Will/ Game Over who creatively conceptualized the masterpiece.
The video is a raunchy, sexy one that brings the words of the song to life. The lead girl in the video suffers from uncontrollable heat in her dreams, bringing on a “fever”; when she awakes she is feverish and covered in sweat. No doubt the video will continue to grow in popularity, as comments are pouring in by the minute.The song Fever comes as an instant gratification when someone purchases “King of the Dancehall”, which was made available for pre-order May 6th exclusively on iTunes.
Distributed by Zojak World Wide, the album will be available exclusively to Apple Music subscribers on June 3rd, the same day the third instant gratification track, ‘Colouring This Life’, will be offered in the iTunes store. Apple Music will offer exclusive streaming one week before the album is available for download on June 10th , a service usually reserved for major label artists.
“King of the Dancehall” contains never before released tracks from Vybz Kartel, all recorded by the prolific artiste before his incarceration. The album is a collaborative effort between Adidjahiem Records/TJ Records. Over the years Vybz Kartel has created a strong following with his creative and ingenious lyrics and he shows no signs of slowing down now.
