No matter where he is, Vybz Kartel has always represented where he’s from and this new single is no different. Titled “Represent Portmore” and produced by Short Boss Muzik, Kartel drops a few punchlines to have your attention, how he lives his life, and makes sure you know that he’s from Portmore over a retro Dancehall riddim. A good one as always from the World Boss and I like that old Dancehall/Reggae riddims are creeping back on the music scene. This week the world will know if Vybz Kartel will either see years in a prison cell, or freedom for the first time in a couple years. Check out the song below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

Starting the new year on a high note is Tommy Lee Sparta with his new single. Titled “Free Your Mind” and produced by Head Concussion Records, we hear Captain Sparta encouraging the ladies to free their minds and release their stress when they’re around him…just don’t tell his wife! Not a bad effort from Tommy Lee as he took on a high tempo beat which gives it a pop sound. It also has a hook that can quickly catch on. I can picture this song getting many plays in nightclubs and I wouldn’t mind hearing him on more beats like these. Check out the song below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
Looks like we’ll be getting more Gaza songs for 2014! Today’s new music comes from Vybz Kartel and Gaza Slim. Titled “Wickedest Ride” and produced by So Unique Records and Simon Howden, we hear Kartel speaking on being with many women but is giving it up to the one girl that never left his side despite hurting her. Gaza Slim handles the chorus by letting him know that he gives her the best loving and she’ll be loyal because other women will come and go. Is this another hit by the duo? To be honest they always fit when doing collaborations but I do think the chorus could’ve been mixed better. Check out the song below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

After becoming a finalist in the Magnum Kings & Queens of Dancehall competition, Stylsyh managed to make a name for herself with a few moderate hits. Tonight on Onstage she had a talk with host Winford Williams about a few things. Here she spoke about Vybz Kartel being an influence in her career, being a part of Tommy Lee Sparta’s crew, owning a Nightclub, her first hit single, her upcoming album, leaving the corporate world for music, Sting 2013 and other things. Stylysh also premiered her music video for the single “Rave“. I know her single with Vybz Kartel is still doing its rounds so I hope her upcoming projects are successful.
