Elephant Man Gives Us Retro Vibes With “Bad Gyal” Single


Shizzle, Summer 2024 is about to sizzle! Dancehall Artist Elephant Man is bringing the energy this season, and he has a lot in store for the people. Earlier this month, the Deejay released a new EP called, “Back To Basic“. The project features a number of dance-ready tunes, and a vibe that only the “Energy God” can provide. One song in particular that will make its round is the single, “Bad Gyal“.

Produced by Energy God Productions, Elephant Man aims for the ladies with “Bad Gyal”. Tapping into some retro vibes, Ele takes a journey back to 2003 to revisit the “Coolie Dance Riddim“, and to 1980 to revisit the legendary band Queen’sAnother One Bites The Dust“. For those unfamiliar, the “Coolie Dance Riddim” was produced by Skatta and Eva Burrell, and Ele scored 3 hits off of the Riddim namely, “Head Gawn“, “Genie Dance“, and “Jook Gal” that took off Internationally with US Rappers Twista and Young Bloodz, and Dancehall Artist Kiprich. “Bad Gyal” finds Ele in one of his sexual escapades here as he encounters a Woman who gets a dose of his energy, and she can’t get enough. The Deejay borrows the cadence of the Queen hit single to share his adventure, and the production will take listeners back to the early 2000s. Another track to make the people dance, and another selection as Elephant Man kicks off Summer 2024.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Clint Eastwood X General Saint – Another One Bites The Dust (1981)


Hello everyone! We hope you’re staying safe out there. Today’s Oldies Sunday selection comes from Dancehall Recording Artists Clint Eastwood and General Saint with their track, “Another One Bites The Dust“! Released in 1981, the track was produced by Henry “Junjo” Lawes, and it was distributed through Greensleeves Records. The duo display great synergy here with their chanting, commanding presence, and wordplay that borrowed from various sayings and proverbs like “Kiss kitty K.Y. you minus plus…“, “You bend down Guava, you lick up syrup“, “Nothing done before its time“, and “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust…“. (Ask your Grandparents for meaning of these sayings. – Editor)

“Another One Bites The Dust”, which was inspired by the track of the same name by British Band Queen, was featured on Clint Eastwood and General Saint’s 1981 album, “Two Bad D.J.“. The track became a memorable one for them, and gives nowadays listeners a feel of a time when Dancehall was growing up. Today’s selection was inspired by news of the Saharan Dust making its way around the world, and Jamaica getting a fair share of it this week. With word that a second wave is near, we urge everyone to stay masked up just the same, and prevent getting sick from it, and also the Coronavirus.

BLACK LIVES STILL MATTER
