.@TheRealMrLexx Shares A “True Story”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Since the late 90s, Dancehall Artist/Media Personality Mr. Lexx has built his name in the Jamaican music scene, and took it to speakers and stages around the world. You know his hits, and he has expanded his career to the point where he’s known for more than just music. Despite it all, he deals with challenges, and he speaks on his journey in, “True Story“.

With a Music Video done by Royal Crown Entertainment, Mr. Lexx takes centre stage on “True Story” to reflect, share commentary, and express some gratitude. It’s no secret that Lexx wasn’t always respected by some of his musical peers and fans, but he managed to keep his name afloat, and get love from many. He’s aware that he may not be everyone’s cup of tea (and he name drops Gen Z and their not so subtle ways), but he has been a pillar of support for some, and he thanks the creator for bringing him this far in life. His journey was never an easy one, but he knows how to manoeuvre himself amongst negativity, those who practice evil, and the challenges that may come his way. Have a listen to Mr. Lexx’s story.

Posted on by swadedavillain

“The Big Cigar” is one of the latest additions to the growing Apple TV streaming platform. Starring Andre Holland, Alessandro Nivola, and Tiffany Boone, the series focuses on the late Activist Huey P. Newton and his Black Panther Party in the 1970s, and his escape from a manhunt from the FBI to Cuba. The series features music from a number of stars from the 1960s and 70s, but a familiar sound from Jamaica was featured in one of the episodes.

In episode 3 of “The Big Cigar” called “Guns & Matzah“, Jamaican Icon Jimmy Cliff’s “Wonderful World, Beautiful People” could be heard during a scene. Produced by Leslie Kong and Cliff and released in 1969 through Trojan Records, “Wonderful World” is a vision by Cliff on what the world could be if things were done different. The song was a top ten hit for Cliff in various countries (was Trojan Records’ 1st hit), and was featured in his self-titled 1969 Reggae album (Sometimes known as “Wonderful World, Beautiful People“). “Wonderful World” was sampled by Cutty Ranks, and was covered by the likes of Sasha, Chuck Bennett, OreSkaBand, and Amazulu. “The Big Cigar” is now available for viewing on Apple TV.

.@KiloKeemzo1K Shares A Story Of “Junior” In New Short Film

Posted on by swadedavillain

In a time when things are increasingly difficult, employment is on a decline, the cost of living skyrockets, and people are easily corrupted, many have found themselves doing all manner of things in order to survive. Recording Artist/Creative Kilo Keemzo seeks to highlight some of the realities in this world through Film, and sheds a small light on it in his new Short Film, “Junior“.

“Junior” is an 8+ minute story of “Junior”, a young Man who is raised in poverty in the Spanish Town area of St. Catherine. Living with a Mother who has seen what the streets can do to the young, she tries her best to guide her child in the best way possible as to not be caught up in crime and violence. Junior, while being aware of his Mother’s teachings, the temptation of fast money has found him dodging his daily education to become a part of a collective of Scammers. The street life can look enticing, but it can get dark quickly when you get caught up in it. Produced by KontrolTheTown/NetworkNetworth, the Film shares what can happen when things go left in the streets, and it’s a reality that many have faced. The Film features appearances by Tajshaun Rowe, Young Ganga, Stats, Nose, Simone Reid, and Nicole Watson. Short but effective, this is a must-watch.
