We Take A “Quick Throwback” Look At @Ishawna’s “All Over Again”!

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s Thursday, so that means another post in our “Quick Throwback” series! Before being a controversial figure in Dancehall, before emphasizing some “Equal Rights & Justice” and encouraging ladies to be a “Cheerful Giver“, Ishawna Smith was on the grind trying to be heard. Today we go back to the year 2008 to check out her track, “All Over Again”. Released through Foota Hype Music, Ishawna speaks about falling in love all over again with her lover. With looking back at the good times playing a big part, Ishawna is determined to make things right with him and make their relationship stronger than ever.

Under the guide of Bounty Killa and an affiliation with DJ Foota Hype, Ishawna moved on to being one of the popular figures on the Dancehall scene, and one of the more controversial ones thanks to the various subject matter in her lyrics.

Hear the track below and check us out next Thursday for another feature in our “Quick Throwback” series.

Posted on by swadedavillain

How are you all doing today? Feeling good? How about some new music? Today we deliver to you some “Irie” vibes all the way from New Orleans courtesy of Reggae/Hip Hop Artists Ayotemi and Sam Wyse of the IRIE Collective! On “Back N’ Forth“, the duo take turns dropping a favourable amount of bars over some 90’s inspired production (done by Wyse) that you can’t help but rock to, and want to add a few bars to. The video was shot by Jake Meyer of Carthage Films, and gets right to the point. “I&I Reflects Interconnected Eternity“. Check out the video below, and follow us on Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.

We Feature The New Kids Of Reggae/Dancehall In Our New Playlist!

Posted on by swadedavillain

In previous articles, we’ve highlighted Child Stars and dedications to the youth, but in closing of May being Child’s Month, we’d like to remix a series. A couple years ago, we highlighted the offspring of some famous names in Reggae/Dancehall in a 5 part series called “Chip Off The Old Block“. Today, we want to offer a playlist featuring some of the offspring that made their names known within the past few years. We urge you to not only play the songs, but support them as they continue their journey of carrying on the family name/reputation, or carve their own paths. Fi di yute dem! Check out the articles and playlist below, and follow us on Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.
