OLDIES SUNDAY: Apache Scratchy – New Year New Law (1991)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Happy New Year! We’re officially in the year 2023. May it be one of your best years yet. We’re kicking it off with Oldies Sunday! Today’s selection comes from Apache Scratchy with the track, “New Year New Law“.

Produced by Oret Smith and released through Godfather Records in 1991, Apache Scratchy had a lot to share on “New Year New Law”. With positive vibes to share all around, Apache wanted things to be better for everyone. With the economy making it harder for people to live everyday, he called out the Government to make things right. With a strong faith, he encouraged everyone to seek Jah and live better lives, and that’s law. Apache Scratchy had a strong stance on “New Year New Law”, and it went down as one of his singles that did well, and good selection to start off the new year. Apache was considered one of the top lyricists and 80s and early 90s Dancehall, and  he held his own with whatever was thrown his way.

Since the release of “New Year New Law”, Apache Scratchy went on to release more music including singles, and albums including “Father & Son“, which was released through Super Cat’s Wild Apache label. Now living overseas, he still makes appearances, performing at various events around the world. Make 2023 your year!

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s Christmas Day all over the world, and whatever the reason, may you find love, joy, and rest during the season. While some may have done away with the gifts and matching PJs, it’s time for a lil music. While you sip on the Sorrel, tune into Oldies Sunday to hear Johnny Osbourne’s “Christmas Stylee“!

Produced by Sir Coxsone Dodd and released through Studio One in 1980, Johnny Osbourne gives us a special selection that gets listeners excited for the Christmas season. Paired with great production and performed with The Family Group, Osbourne shares the news of the birth of King Jesus, and gets us all into the groove. You couldn’t help but dance and singalong to this track, and it became an instant favourite for many. “Christmas Stylee” was featured on the “Sir Coxsone’s Family Album: Christmas Stylee” Compilation Album and “Reggae Christmas From Studio One“, and are just some of the many Jamaican Christmas compilations that have been released over the years.

We hope you have a great Christmas. While feelings and moods may vary throughout, we hope you have at least one smiling moment. Bless up!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Christmas Day is almost here, and the parties have already started. Christmas is celebrated by all sorts of people from different backgrounds, but what about the Scammers and Choppas? While they use the other days of the year to relish in their spoils from various activities, how do they celebrate Christmas? Well, while we can’t answer that, we made a Playlist just for those who want to pretend to live like a Choppa during Christmas for a while.

With the “12 Days Of Choppa Christmas” Playlist, we’ve compiled 12 Chop Dancehall hits that instantly shut the place down. From Squash to Valiant, we hope you enjoy the tracks, and be sure to rock Polo, Aeropostale, American Eagle, Gucci, and Psycho Bunny while listening.

13th Street Promotions does not endorse scamming activities, but some of the songs are cool to listen to.

In case you see this before or after the day, we wish for you a great Christmas, and may it be all you wanted this year.

.@FeezyDat Steps Out With New Album, “Rekanize”!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist D-Feezy returns with new music just in time for the holidays. The Deejay stayed busy in the early part of 2022, and took a break to deal with a few things. Still ensuring that he represents Jamaica to the fullest in Indianapolis, his catalogue has shown various sides of him, and his ability to extend his skillset through collaborations. Readying up for a new year of new possibilities, he keeps moving with the new album, “Rekanize“.

Featuring 10 tracks and 2 years in the making, D-Feezy brought forward plenty music to enjoy at the Christmas and New Year parties, and everyday after that. While Dancehall is his primary sound, Feezy has been tapping into the Afrobeats sound for a number of years, and it reflects on “Rekanize”. The production featured on the album compliment D-Feezy’s deliveries throughout, and guest features from the likes of Terapy, Afrorolls, Playbwoii, Ms. Monies, and Mr. Duke give the album’s experience even more support. D-Feezy has given a number of years to the music, and his rewards for all his work have been steadily coming his way. Keep “Rekanize” in heavy rotation.

Squash & Bobby 6ix Unite For “Times Like These”!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Squash was having one of his best years yet that was filled with hit singles, viral moments, and a rapid growth in his fanbase. What also happened was a variety of controversial moments, and tragedy. While it may have taken a toll on him mentally, he is taking it a day at a time. He is still showing his strengths, and has released the visual for, “Times Like These“.

Directed by DirectorBadz and featuring Bobby 6ix, Squash is facing each day with fire in his eyes, and despite his down times, he’s not letting them get the best of him. Bobby 6ix supports his brother with hard-hitting lyrics, and together they show that they’ll continue to get stronger over a Hemton Music beat. “Times Like These” will have listeners becoming more cautious, and being more aware of their surroundings, who and what they give their energy to, and overcoming troubles. 6ix is still real.
