Da Real Thing – 13th Street Promotions

UK Hip Hop duo Young T & Bugsey are ready for the next stage of their careers where they conquer more territories, and connect with new listeners. They enjoyed viral and platinum success in the early 2020s with the single, “Don’t Rush” and platinum success with “Strike A Pose” and “Ay Caramba“. They seek to take the Summer by storm, and they take to the Islands with “Rio Grande“.

With a Director Kay-directed Music Video, Young T & Bugsey take a trip to Jamaica for some good vibes in “Rio Grande”. Living it up as Tourists, they enjoy the Sun, the sea, the atmosphere, and the herb as they find themselves in various locations. “Rio Grande” was produced by Young T, and it samples Sizzla Kalonji’s “Solid As A Rock” single. The track was produced by Bobby “Digital” Dixon a.k.a. “Digital B”, and was featured on the 2002 album, “Da Real Thing“. “Solid As A Rock” was previously sampled by Jay-Z, Ja Rule, Papoose, 50 Cent, and The Jacka. Young T & Bugsey are currently campaigning “Rio Grande”, and we can expect even more from them later this year. Time for some vibes.

“Oh she cute eeh?” are the opening words to Reggae Artist Sizzla’s “Woman I Need You” single from his critically acclaimed 2002 album, “Da Real Thing (Get It Here)“. At the time, Sizzla was on a blazing trail thanks to his “One Of Those Days (Dry Cry) single, but today he has another high point in his career. Today marks the release of DJ Khaled’s 10th studio album, “Grateful“, and Sizzla is both featured and has his 2002 single sampled on the album. “Woman I Need You” was produced by Bobby “Digital” Dixon for Digital-B Records on the “Dem Gone Riddim“. The sample appears on the track, “It’s Secured” which features Rapper/Producer Travis Scott, and Hip Hop Icon Nas, and produced by DJ Khaled, Cool & Dre, and 808-Ray. This marks the second time the track has been sampled as it first appeared on Rapper Cam’Ron’s 2004 “More Gangsta Music” which featured fellow Rapper Juelz Santana. Digital-B Records has been a part of many successful singles from the likes of Shabba Ranks, Coco Tea, Morgan Heritage, his son Giark, the late Garnet Silk, and was the Producer of Sizzla’s “Black Woman and Child” album. DJ Khaled’s “Grateful” album also features Dancehall Artist Mavado with production from Jamaican Producer Troyton. The album is now available on iTunes, and all streaming services.
