Zion Marley Rules His Destiny In “Best Of Me”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Marley brand is one that transcends generations and genres. The Marley family is an organization that has tapped into various markets with much success. The new generation of Marleys, namely the grandchildren of Bob Marley, are busy branching out. From Zuri, to Skip, to YG, to King Cruff, to Mystic, there is a new wave of sounds that is making moves in various scenes. Enter Zion Marley, the latest name to emerge with music. The son of Rohan Marley and Ms. Lauryn Hill has a message to share, and it’s called, “Best Of Me“.

Released through Zion Marley Music, “Best Of Me” finds Zion Marley finding peace in the midst of turmoil, loving his enemies while acknowledging being betrayed by friends, keeping his head above the madness, knowing his worth and faith, and showing gratitude to the higher power. The track is expected to make an impact in the coming days, as the song promotes some of the same messages that his Mother, Grandfather, and other relatives have presented in their own music. The song is accompanied by a Music Video directed by Djuvii in Jamaica, and by Gabriel Twardowski in Brazil, and viewers can feel some of that peace that Zion channels through his music. The latest Marley to release music is next up to major stardom, and we will be hearing more from him in the future. Guard your heart in these crazy times.

.@JahvyAmbassador, Alkaline Take #1 Spot With “Dangerous Youth”

Posted on by swadedavillain

No matter what the detractors may say, Dancehall Music is still a dominant force. It continues to be a global phenomenon thanks to the many Ambassadors of the genre, and will stay that way for years to come. Dancehall Producer Jahvy of Tru Ambassador Ent. has been a dedicated representative of the culture, and he has enjoyed a vast amount of success over the years. He recently celebrated another milestone thanks in part to Dancehall Artist, Alkaline.

Recently, Jahvy and Alkaline teamed up for the single, “Dangerous Youth”. Another entry in the list of collaborations they have together, “Dangerous Youth” finds the Deejay in his element as one of Dancehall’s big names over solid production. The collaboration quickly gained traction on music streaming platforms, climbing to over 100,000 views on Youtube in just hours. Strong support for the single was expected, but it further solidified its place by taking the #1 spot on the iTunes Reggae Singles chart. The move was deemed monumental as it towered over Bob Marley’s classic single, “Three Little Birds”, Stephen Marley’s “You Don’t Know How It Feels”, iNi Kamoze’s “Here Comes The Hotstepper”, Shaggy’s “Angel” and “It Wasn’t Me”, and Jimmy Cliff’s “I Can See Clearly Now”. Jahvy shared his accomplishment on Social Media with the caption, “#1, doh get e figure wrong”, and shouting out Alkaline as collaborator, and longtime friend.

Jahvy continues to keep his Tru Ambassador Ent. Ship sailing, and with the success of Dancehall Artist 450, and Producers Week.Day and Falconn under his management, there is a lot more ground for him to conquer. He has hinted at a number of developments to come via his Social Media platforms, and he urges fans to stay tuned.

Jahvy and Alkaline’s “Dangerous Youth” is out now on all digital music streaming platforms.

Today (July 1) is recognized as “International Reggae Day“, and we salute the pioneers, the movers and shakers, and the talent who took this genre to every part of the world, influencing generations. One of people who made Reggae an emerging force in the beginning was the late Producer Leslie Kong. Through Kong, the career of Jimmy Cliff took off, the launch of Beverley’s Records from a small Record Shop, to a Internationally known Record Label happened, Bob Marley got to record his first single, the establishment of Chris Blackwell’s Island Records and Graeme Goodall’s short-lived Pyramid label through his early investments, and taking Reggae Music to the International market. Kong also became the Island’s leading Producer having worked with everyone from Toots and The Maytals, Desmond Dekker, and many others. Today, we salute his work with our latest Playlist, “Sampling Leslie Kong“.

For over 3 1/2 hours, “Sampling Leslie Kong” highlights some of Kong’s many hits, and the songs that sampled them. From Jimmy Cliff, to Toots and The Maytals, to Bob Marley, to Desmond Dekker, to Christina Aguilera, to Foxy Brown, to Shaggy, to Vampire Weekend, to SchoolBoy Q, to FatBoySlim, the new Playlist will entertain you, and of course educate you.

.@CrisCab Returns With @BobMarley’s “Is This Love” Cover

Posted on by swadedavillain

We’ve often said on here that Caribbean music hits different. Jamaican music is the vibe, and we know its effects when it touches people around the world. The Island is home to the legendary Bob Marley, and his music has inspired so much. One of the persons to be affected by his music is Miami-based Recording Artist/Musician Cris Cab. He first emerged on the scene in 2011, and scored an International hit in 2013 with “Liar, Liar“. He decided to go on a hiatus for some time, but recently returned to the scene with a special release. He presents his cover of Bob Marley’s classic, “Is This Love“.

With a Music Video directed by Andrew and Daniel Terry, Cris Cab takes it to the seashore and the Studio for his “Is This Love” cover. Armed with his Guitar, Cab delivers in the best way he knows to do the iconic song justice. “Is This Love” was originally performed by Bob Marley & The Wailers and released in 1978. The track was featured on the “Kaya” album, and later the “Legend” compilation album. It was certified Gold and Platinum in a number of countries, and was also covered by the likes of Rihanna, Carly Simon, Adam Lambert, and Corrine Bailey Rae, who won a GRAMMY for it in 2012. It was also sampled by Outkast, James Blunt, Toosii, and Prince among others. Cris Cab returns to music in fine style.

2024 is the year of the Marley. Bob Marley’s biopic “One Love” hit Theatres and did numbers, Julian Marley won a GRAMMY, The Marley Brothers announced a tour, Sharon Marley returned to music, and the Grandchildren of Bob Marley including King Cruff and YG Marley released music, and gained global recognition. YG Marley has been doing well for himself, his “Praise Jah In The Moonlight“, despite mixed criticism, has earned him over a billion streams, and has taken him as far the recently-held Coachella to perform it beside his Mother, Miss Lauryn Hill. The song has done a lot, and continues to make waves on Social Media, and YG adds more life to it with the release of the official Music Video.

Directed by Cole Bennett of Lyrical Lemonade, YG Marley brought the energy of the song to Jamaica with the official visual for “Praise Jah In The Moonlight”. YG takes to the streets, where he proceeds to bring light and love to various communities and individuals by offering flowers, and channels his positive energy to others. The visual also finds him surrounded by Singers in a garden (shout out Yanah who has a cameo appearance), as he performs his hit that aims to climb higher in the music scene. The video features appearances by his Marley family, Kabaka Pyramid, Jesse Royal, and Miss Lauryn Hill. Speaking on Miss Hill, we look forward to the remix of “Praise Jah” with her lyrics. Is “Praise Jah” your favourite song?
