We Survived Hurricane Melissa!

Posted on by swadedavillain

As the title says, we survived Hurricane Melissa! October 2025 will be a month to remember as we’ve been on Hurricane Watch for a good part of the month, till Hurricane Melissa’s Category 5 ascension on the Island, and the aftermath that we’re currently dealing with. While this is not your typical post from us, we give thanks on behalf of many who have lived to tell the tale in not only Jamaica, but The Bahamas, Cuba, Hispaniola (Haiti/Dominican Republic), Turks & Caicos, and Bermuda, and we mourn those who passed away due to the event. The week before and after October 28, 2025 hasn’t been smooth sailing.

We are thankful for those who have been making efforts in the recovery process. Jamaicans locally and abroad have been rallying for help in cash and kind to support those who have suffered losses, and rebuild. We ask that you lend your support to the likes of SupportJamaica.gov.jm, and initiatives by the likes of X Users @BrayForJade, Jodi of WheresTheFoodJo’s “Cups Up“, Emma, @JsCallMeTee, Better Help, and many more. As power and certain resources are still major things in various parts of Jamaica, we’re also trying to help out a few families/individuals in our communities with necessities including Power Banks, Power Stations, Water, and even Supermarket Vouchers so they can secure a few items. If you wish, you can make a contribution to our Paypal here. Wherever and whoever you support during this time, THANK YOU in advance, a little goes a long way.

Before we head out, we thank those who have been hitting up the Website and checking out the content. Feel free to click on the Ads, and if you need promotion or any service provided by us, do make a contact, and we’ll get back to you. We’re not officially back online, but we’ll make it happen until we’re 100% again.

Valiant Makes It A “Bimma Summer” With New Release

Posted on by swadedavillain

To have fun in the sun is the mission when it comes to the Summer season, and that fun can be had in a variety of ways. For Dancehall Artist Valiant, he wants to take over the streets. If you’re not understanding his motive, he’ll let you in on it in the video for the new single, “Bimma Summer“.

Directed by Top Shootah, Valiant has ambitions of burning rubber in the video for, “Bimma Summer”. Whether you have a taste for the 5 series, have a need for speed with the M4, or you prefer taking on the road in a X series, Valiant has his eyes on a BMW this time around, no need for the other brands. The RKTrap/ProdByTarick-produced single is bound to catch the ears of the Bimma enthusiast, and we can expect this one to be loud in the streets in the coming days. Whether your domain is at the party or the racetrack, parry hard, but drive safely.

J’Calm Pursues Love In Visual For “Tempted” Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

With all that has been happening in the week, we’ll take it down a notch a lil with this new release. An Artist who has been putting in the work for a while, Recording Artist/Producer J’Calm is steadily gaining a footing in the music scene. He recently stepped out with the Summer single, “Tempted“, and is now following it up with the official Music Video.

Shot in Kingston, Jamaica, we see a story unfold in “Tempted” where J’Calm pursues a love interest. The video finds him reaching out to her at the famous Artwalk in Downtown Kingston, and after a few conversations, they meet up at a house party where they got to know each other better. Simple but clean visual, and listeners can enjoy “Tempted” in more ways than one. The 5K Records/Sony Music Ent. UK release has been gaining traction over the past few days thanks to TikTok, it even caught the attention of former US President Barack Obama who added it to his official Summer Playlist (The Playlist also featured Toots And The Maytals, who have been regulars on there). J’Calm may become a bigger name in the coming months, so be on the lookout for more releases. She pretty like a night in Memphis.

Baaba J "Okay Baby, Let's Do This" EP on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Ghana #AfroSounds #Music #13thStreetPromotions #BaabaJ #OkayBabyLetsDoThis #EP #TWI #Africa

.@Baaba_JJ Gives Us The “Okay Baby, Let’s Do This” EP

Posted on by swadedavillain

Ghanaian Musician/Recording Artist Baaba J has been blessing the world with her melodies and sounds for a number of years. What first started as dream during her younger years have now turned into a full fledged career, scoring a following globally, and providing her various opportunities. It has been a while since she released her debut project, “Lumumba St.“, and she now steps out with her sophomore effort, the “Okay Baby, Let’s Do This” EP.

Featuring 7 tracks, Baaba J gives the world a reintroduction on “Okay Baby, Let’s Do This”. The project is filled with words of motivation, positivity, and it taps into the Ghanaian culture as you can hear Twi spoken throughout. The Afro-Fusion production on OBLDT was made possible by MERK, 4Play, NiiQuaye, Loudaa, and GuiltyBeatz, and they help to amplify Baaba’s words and melodies throughout. With two EPs in, we can expect her debut album to be one of those monumental moments that will really have the world’s attention. Until then, tap into the sounds of Baaba J. Who knows, maybe we’ll hear her collaborate with one of our Jamaica Artists in the future.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Louisa Mark – Caught You In A Lie (1975)

Posted on by swadedavillain

In recognition of Women’s History Month, we take the time out to feature Women who have made great contributions to our music culture. While we celebrate the Women all year over here, we recognize some through our Oldies Sunday section. For today’s selection, we stop in London to check out the late Louisa “Markswoman” Mark and her track, “Caught You In A Lie“.

Produced by “Sir Coxsone” Dodd, “Caught You In A Lie” was released through Safari Records, and the Gussie label in 1975. The track was a cover of US Singer Robert Parker’s 1967 single, “I Caught You In A Lie“, and Louisa Mark owned it with beautiful vocals and delivery as she spoke about catching a cheating lover, and discovering what he was up to. The song was performed by a 15 year old Mark, who was a big winner at various talent shows, and was a result of  her first recording session which was given to her by Dodd. The song became an instant hit and was well loved by listeners in Europe and other parts of the world, and was considered the first Lovers Rock single.

Since the release of “Caught You In A Lie”, Louisa Mark followed up with a couple more hits, and released her only album “Breakout” in 1981 (“Caught You In A Lie” would be later added in a remastered version of the album). She enjoyed a career in the 80s that saw the release of some singles, but life happened, and she didn’t put out anymore music until 2004. Sadly she passed away in 2009, but she left her mark (no pun intended) on music with kicking off the official Lovers Rock movement.

Thank You Louisa Mark For This Classic!
