Dropping another one of his mash ups is Toronto based DJ Fella. Titled “Plans Fi Yuh“, this utilizes Singer Kim Kelly’s “Plans Fi Yuh” and Alkaline’s “Touch You“. A good effort here from DJ Fella as these two songs have been quite popular in Dancehall circles. Looking forward to more Mash ups. What do you think?

Switching up the gender role today is Deejay Spice with her new video. Titled “Like A Man“, Spice speaks on the gender inequality in Dancehall and asks if she would be respected more if she was a male deejay and dropped different lyrics. She also introduces “Splice“, the male version of Spice which was rather hilarious and shows her on camera diversity. If she deejayed like Vybz Kartel or tatted her eyes like Alkaline, would she be respected more? Interesting music video from the deejay.

Dropping sexually explicit lyrics is the “Problem Child“, Alkaline. Titled “Everyday” and produced by Ever Strong Records on the “Gal Kraze Riddim“, Alkaline speaks about the lady who’s on his mind often, how she affects him and how he wants to do crazy things with her. This single will do its rounds thanks to the hook and despite the controversies, Alkaline still has a great following. What do you think of this song?

Accompanied by a snippet of Vybz Kartel’s incriminating voice note and a Kris Beatz production, Khaos released a quick freestyle for the listeners.
