Vybz Kartel Rings In The Holidays With “XMas Buddy” Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

December is the last month of the year, but to many people, that means Christmas is here. Starting November (sometimes October), we’d see decorations being laid out, and some are heading to the stores to lock down Christmas presents. In Jamaica, there was a time where a number of Artists would come out with Christmas-themed music, with Dancehall Artist Vybz Kartel being one of the go-to Artists. Seeing an absence due to him being incarcerated for a number of years, he returns with holiday cheer for the ladies in the form of the new single, “XMas Buddy“.

Produced by Greedy Lion, Vybz Kartel has a present for the ladies called, “XMas Buddy”. Listeners are taken back to the 2010s when the “World Boss” would have a song for every occasion, with Christmas being heavily anticipated. The Deejay remixes “Little Drummer Boy” to spew a few raunchy lyrics, ensuring the ladies get filled with joy, and holiday cheer lights up their faces. For this holiday season, ensure you celebrate in the best way, and keep a bottle of Str8 Vybz Rum nearby.

Ziciano’s “Come Over” Enjoys Viral Love

Posted on by swadedavillain

While we were experiencing a Hurricane in Jamaica and parts of the Caribbean a couple weeks ago, an upcoming Dancehall Artist was making his way up to becoming a viral sensation. Based in Paris, France, Dancehall Artist Ziciano stepped out with a new single called, “Come Over (Possibly)“, and was not expecting the wave that would follow soon after.

Produced by Tcoplinks, Ziciano gave the ladies a few reasons to be in his space for some good times in, “Come Over (Possibly)”. The bilingual track (French and Patois) along with Ziciano’s melodic delivery and solid production quietly made its way onto the scene, but started to catch on thanks to the catchy (and aggressive) “Back it up, back it up…GYAL” line on the chorus. Editor’s note: Ziciano sounds a little like Jamaican Dancehall Artist Kalado. Maybe there’s some influence there, or just coincidence. With people now paying attention, the single started to gain attention on Social Media platforms like TikTok, with users from many countries not only sharing their interest in the song, but find themselves dancing or lip-syncing it. Since its release, it has gained close to 200,000 plays on Youtube, over 400,000 streams on Spotify, and Millions of plays on Social Media. Fans of the Ziciano and “Come Over” are looking forward to a Music Video for the single, and its follow up. May he keep this up, and secure a solid spot in the music scene.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Mavado – Weh Dem A Do (2006)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today is a celebration. Today marks the birthday of one of Dancehall’s giants, Mavado. Why not give him an “Oldies Sunday” feature? Today, we go back in time to check out, “Weh Dem A Do“.

Produced by Delly Ranx and released through Di Ranx Productions on the “Redbull & Guinness Riddim” in 2006, Mavado came out swinging with “Weh Dem A Do”. Armed with a gritty and melodic delivery, Mavado stepped onto the scene showcasing the dark environment he’s from, and made for a song that not only had the gangsters’ attention, but the ladies as well. The Riddim’s upbeat sound made a good fit for the “Gully Gad“, and with a catchy hook (“Weh dem a do, weh dem a try…”) intact, it quickly became one of the Deejay’s first hits. “Weh Dem A Do” was featured on his critically acclaimed debut album, “Gangsta For Life, The Symphony Of David Brooks“, which went on to become a hit on the International market.

Since the release of “Weh Dem A Do”, Mavado not only became a household name in the Caribbean, but became a known figure Internationally, and secured his place as one of Dancehall’s legend. He ushered in his “Gullyside” movement, scored multiple hits, participated in one of the biggest beefs in Dancehall history (Gully vs Gaza with Vybz Kartel), and recently returned to Jamaica for the first time in several years due to legal issues. Mavado still holds the position as one of Dancehall’s top acts, and “Weh Dem A Do” still gets the crowd going. Check out our “Gully Forever” Playlist featuring a number of the Deejay’s hits over the years.

Thank You Mavado For This Classic!
