Jah Patriot's new single, "Dream" on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Music #Dancehall

Jah Patriot Gives The Ladies Some Loving On “Dream”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Following the release of the singles “Keep The Faith“, “Crown”, and “Oh Gosh” this year, US based Reggae Recording Artist Jah Patriot is making all the necessary moves to keep the musical spotlight shining his way. He has been gaining great feedback locally and internationally for his releases, and has been showing that the veteran still has the power to make great music. When he’s not making songs that command a certain level of consciousness, or music that provides a positive message, he’s making something for the ladies like his new single, “Dream“.

Produced by Reggae Capital, Jah Patriot calls the ladies over as he spins clever lyrics to entice them. Flipping a Dancehall flow, “Dream” may surprise many, but those familiar with his career, knows that he always has a few tricks up his sleeve. The veteran Reggae Artist has been hinting that a new project is on the way from him, and we look forward to it becoming a reality hopefully later this year.

General B ft. Ghost - Mr. Boasy & Friend on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Dancehall #13thStreetPromotions

OLDIES SUNDAY: General B X Ghost – Mr. Boasy & Friend (1998)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Happy Sunday! Today’s Oldies Sunday selection is for those who like to show off, stunt, keep up appearances, and look down on people, but their priorities aren’t in order. The World is filled with them, but this man chose to call them out many years ago. His name is Dancehall Artist General B, and the track is called, “Mr. Boasy & Friend“.

Produced by Colin “Fatta” Walters on the “Top Shotta Riddim” and released through Colin Fat Records/VP Records in 1998, General B calls out those who always have the most money, have all the high end fashion, driving the latest vehicles, and who carry on like rich snobs. While some may say he is hating, the fact is those same people don’t have their priorities in order to the point where they don’t own anything outside of the fancy things, and one false move may find them homeless and flooded with bills causing embarrassment to themselves and their families. General B shares that he may not have the best of things at the time, but he is confident that at the end of the day, life is more in order than theirs. Fellow Dancehall Artist Ghost makes an appearance on the track by providing the chorus, and compliments General B’s deejaying well. “Mr. Boasy & Friend” was a hit for General B, and was one of many as he was a part of the legendary Monster Shack Crew with Ghost and Roundhead. The single was also featured on the group’s 1998 “Monster Party” album. General B is still active in the Dancehall circles, and has solidified himself as one of the contributors to some of the best years in Jamaican music.

THANK YOU GENERAL B!

Usain Bolt and NJ release the "Country Yutes" album on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #UsainBolt

The “Country Yutes” @UsainBolt & NJ Made An Album!

Posted on by swadedavillain

He dominated Track & Field, and he became a global Icon, and a household name. Usain Bolt has done what many aspire to do in a short amount of time, and he’s from Jamaica! Now retired, he sought to dabble in music, and has seen some success. He takes it a step further with the release of the album, “Country Yutes“.

Featuring his friend and collaborator Nugent “NJ” Walker, “Country Yutes” shows that everything Usain Bolt touches, will eventually turn into gold. While there are naysayers who doubt his foray into music, you can’t deny that the party boy will make songs for people to enjoy. He brought a few friends (“Bibi” Gardner, Kamal Evans, Jae Xo, Karanja Nelson, and NJJ) along for the ride, and gave us 14 tracks. Usain Bolt is not the first Athlete who fell into the music lane (“Bibi” Gardner is a Footballer), and that line is a long and historic one. You know the Schweppes, Bolt is bringing the A-Team Lifestyle to your speakers. Here’s to hoping he makes a small return to the other track as he’s missed over there (crossing fingers).

Just a few hours ago, International Recording Artist/Producer/Entrepreneur Kanye West released his tenth studio album, “DONDA“.

Shenseea represents Dancehall on the album via the track, “Ok ok Pt. 2” and “Pure Souls“, while Buju Banton steps in for Reggae on the track, “Believe What I Say“. Shenseea steps in “Ok Ok Pt. 2” with a verse along with Rapper Fivio Foreign and she sings on “Pure Souls”, while Buju shares a few bars along with some words of wisdom over a Lauryn Hill sampled track. Kanye West is no stranger to having Dancehall/Reggae sounds and Artists on his albums as Agent Sasco, Beenie Man, and Capleton appeared on his “Yeezus” album in 2013. Yeezy SZN is here, and we know many listeners will be making the most out of the album today.

.@DevinDiDakta Takes His Lyricism To The “PsYcH wArD”!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Devin Di Dakta is an Artist you can’t deny when it comes to making songs. His lyricism is both hailed as great, and underrated as he’s at times left out of the Dancehall conversations. Regardless, he continues to release fiery tracks, and level up his brand. For his latest release, he makes bold statements that he has made the longest and most lyrical Dancehall song in history, and has released Jamaica’s “First 1 Track EP” in the form of, “PsYcH wArD“.

Produced by Slaybad Musiq and with a video directed by Yaadboiiz Films, Devin Di Dakta gives viewers an epic showcase of lyricism for 10 minutes straight from a Padded Room. Having a few years in, Devin doesn’t show a sign of slowing down, and proceeds to have your attention with punchline after punchline. You can say his style is crazy, and he may be a mad genius, but he’s not losing it on this track. The 1 track EP isn’t the first time Devin has been stretching his creativity as he released the “iAMe001-003” Visual EP series in 2020, and commanded attention with the content behind his “Bare Meds EP” from earlier this year. Devin is still thinking outside the box with the “PsYcH wArD EP”, get familiar.
