Chip Off The Old Block: Meet The New Kids Of Dancehall x Reggae (Pt. 3)

Posted on by swadedavillain

First they started out as the youth of the Dancehall/Reggae culture, now they’re parents with growing kids. It isn’t unusual for the child of an Entertainer to follow in their parent’s footsteps one way or the other as at times they bring a modern take on their parent’s creations, or create their own lane. Some of the most famous off springs include Stephen, Ziggy, and Damian “Junior Gong” Marley (Sons of Bob Marley), Chino and Di Genius (Sons of Freddie McGregor), Junior Tucker (Son of Jimmy Tucker), Morgan Heritage (Children of Denroy Morgan), Tarrus Riley (Son of Jimmy Riley), Queen Ifrica (Daughter of Derrick Morgan), Protoje (Son of Lorna Bennett), Chronixx (Son of Chronicle) and many more. In part 3 of a few part series, I feature more of the new set of kids on the scene whose parents have covered much ground in their respective careers.

First he let you “Syvah” with him, then “Shampoo” all over the dance floor, but what does Ding Dong have next in store? “Press Gas” as tonight on Onstage he revealed all to Winford Williams. Here he spoke about the success of his singles and dances, his performances at events like Reggae Sumfest and Dream Weekend, defying the odds when he recorded on the “Happy Hour Riddim” months after its release with “Lowe Me Nuh“, being a part of Corporate Jamaica, making it his objective to bring back dancing to Dancehall, the “Gas” trend and its popularity, and his upcoming birthday party. Ding Dong also took over the stage and performed “Gas” and of course dance with his Ravers Clavers crew. The dancing King is here and we look forward to more hits.
