OLDIES SUNDAY: Daddy Screw & Donovan Steele – Kerry (1994)

Posted on by swadedavillain

In music, there are names that are immortalized in song. You know plenty of those songs, but when you own one of the names, it’s really special. Today’s “Oldies Sunday” will be special for the Women who own this name. Today’s selection comes from Daddy Screw with the track, “Kerry“.

Produced by Dave Kelly on the “Car Crash Riddim” and released through the Mad House label in 1994, Daddy Screw had “Kerry” on his mind a lot. Featuring Singer Donovan Steele, the song finds the Artists making their dedication to Kerry, assuring love and loyalty, dismissing other Women, and of course making her feel like the only girl in the world. All the Women named Kerry quickly owned this song when it was released back in the day, and it definitely boosted their confidence. Aside from them, the song became one of Screw’s hits, securing high positions on local charts, and finding its way into the International market.

Since the release of “Kerry”, Daddy Screw went on to release more music over the years. He migrated to the US in later years, but the musical output slowed since. He supported the career of his son Tyrello a.k.a. Chedda Da Medalis, who had some success in music over the years. “Kerry” continues to be played to this day, along with his many hits. Big up all the Kerry dem.

Thank You Daddy Screw For This Hit!

Did You Go To “Such Man Party”? @BujuBanton Asks

Posted on by swadedavillain

While the world is still reeling off of news stemming from the recent US Elections, there have been developments in regard to another topic of interest. There have been new reports against this person we call, “Such Man“, that may mean that he will not see freedom any time soon. The topic is a popular one, and there have questions and conspiracy theories. Dancehall/Reggae Icon Buju Banton has been aware of the developments, but he asks some important questions in his new single, “Such Man Party“.

Produced by Dutty Rock Productions on the Dave Kelly-sampled “Dutty Showtime Riddim“, Buju Banton doesn’t want fluff, he wants the truth about “Such Man Party”. Over the past few years, there have been many celebrities who have attended, and partied away at his many events, but since the accusations and arrest, some have remained silent about the matter, or have made public statements about not being a part of the dark side of those parties. Buju warns those who have been a part of these events to make sure they haven’t been doing sinister things, because when names are called, there won’t be any time for excuses, and no forgiveness. “Such Man” has been living a terrible life behind closed doors, and slowly but surely he’s being exposed through documents, videos, and witnesses. Detective Buju is on the case.

“Say Yes” To @ItsTheTifa’s New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

On International Women’s Day, we highlight the Women who took risks, and made bold steps to make a difference in the world. Many Women have become game changers in music, including Dancehall Artist Tifa. Her career spans well over a decade, and she has quite the discography, and place in Dancehall has been secured. Earlier, she released the new single, “Say Yes“.

Produced by Kemar McGregor, Tifa makes a dedication to all the Women in “Say Yes”. For the Women who are successful, who are standouts, and who are disruptors, this one is for you. Tifa knows what many go through in everyday life, so she took the opportunity to big them up when they’re winning in life. “Say Yes” also pays tribute to a couple Dancehall stalwarts as she borrows lines and cadences from the classic “Hol’ A Fresh” from the late Red Dragon, and the production samples the “Bounce Riddim“, which was produced by Dave Kelly for the Xtra Large label and released in 2000. Big up all the ladies, and much love to T-I-F-A. Keep this one in heavy rotation.

After much anticipation, Rapper Nicki Minaj finally released her long-awaited “Pink Friday 2” album. Having been 5 years since her last release, she looks to take back her rightful place in music as she stepped back to have a family, dropping singles here and there. She also celebrates her birthday with this album. The 22 track album finds Nicki in her element along with some new vibes. A few of her friends show up throughout, including Dancehall Artists Skeng and Skillibeng on the track, “Forward From Trini“.

Produced by Basbeats and Melio Sounds, Nicki Minaj, Skeng, and Skillibeng take it to the Islands with their new collaborations. Armed with slick lines and their respective energies on the track, “Forward From Trini” looks to be a standout on “Pink Friday 2”. The track also sampled elements of the “Stink Riddim“, which was produced by Dave Kelly, and released in 1996. The Riddim featured hits by Wayne Wonder, Beenie Man, Baby Cham, and the late Captain Barkey. Skilli first worked with Nicki on the remix of “Crocodile Teeth” in 2021, while Skeng gained a new audience after Nicki hopped on his “Likkle Miss” single last year. Maybe we get a music video for this one. Nicki Minaj continues to show love to Jamaica, maybe she will perform her album on the Island soon. Barbz roll out!
