OLDIES SUNDAY: Kukudoo – King David (2009)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s a new month, and that means new content on “Oldies Sunday“! Today’s selection will shake up a few rooms, halls, and streets. We look back at Gospel Artist Kukudoo’s track, “King David“.

Produced by World Shock Media and officially released in 2009, Kukudoo made everyone rock to his “King David” tune, even the dead. Originally a song performed at Nine Nights/Wakes, the song was a mix of Revival Gospel Music, Bible stories, dancing, and Jamaican culture, and shared a few memorable lines like, “King David sit up on the heavenly throne, hallelujah…“, and “See people business and leave it alone, hallelujah…“. The backing production was regularly performed at Nine Night/Wake events, and it was only right to use for the official recording of “King David”. The song quickly gained popularity locally, and secured its place in being a highly requested song to play everywhere to this day. If a song could earn Platinum and Diamond certifications just be playing it in the streets, “King David” would own many plaques. “King David” was also performed at the “Jamaica 56” Grand Gala in 2018. It gained an big endorsement from Media Personality/Lawyer/Anthropologist Dr. Kingsley “Ragashanti” Stewart as he would play it during episodes of his “Tambourine Radio” and “Ragashanti Live” shows in the 2000s, and related shows in the future. He was also recruited to appear in the “King David” music video, which was directed by Tinman (of SwagTVFilmz) for Creative Vibes Production. The song would go on to gain notoriety on Social Media platforms Instagram and TikTok, giving it even more life through trending content.

Since the release of “King David”, Kukudoo went on to release more music and albums, and became one of the most booked Jamaican Gospel Artists. He is still active today, taking his music to various parts of the world. “King David” remains a classic.

Thank You Kukudoo For This Classic!

Yannick Paul Shares A Life Changing Story On “Kvrtel CD”

Posted on by swadedavillain

For those who know, and those who don’t, Dancehall Artist Vybz Kartel will be launching his highly-anticipated “Freedom Street” Concert next week. With the year he and his fans have been experiencing, 2024 will be ending in a big way. For people like Gospel Artist Yannick Paul, he remembers the days when he would be front and center for the latest single from the Deejay. Life has changed since then, but he wants to share a story about his “Kvrtel CD“.

The story starts off in 2005 where a young Yannick Paul discovers a Vybz Kartel mixtape at a friend’s house. He would then steal it, and the story continues with him enjoying content from, and becoming a fan of a Dancehall Artist who would gradually become one of Jamaica’s top acts. During that time, Yannick was dealing with having a music career of his own, and a life that wasn’t Christlike. He admits that the music made an influence on his life then, and the same can be said for others, but things began to shift for him over the years, and life as a Christian took over, putting the Kartel music and influence on the back burner. He closes off his song with a message to Vybz Kartel, with the hopes that he gives a welcoming ear to it. “Kvrtel CD” is the follow up to “November“, which shares Yannick’s life changing story that happened over 10 years ago. 2025 will find him continuing to spread the word.

Prince Saj Takes Gospel Music In A Fun New Direction With “God With Us”

Posted on by swadedavillain

When it comes to Gospel Music, it has birthed a number of people who have played vital roles in bringing their audience closer to Christ. There have been numerous iterations of the Gospel sound, and they have each won over their audiences, and strengthened the genre. In Jamaica, the Gospel sound expanded to Reggae and Dancehall, with some acts taking it to higher levels, but its reception met negative pushback by many in the Church as they prefer the “old fashioned” style of the music. Enter Saja Smith a.k.a. Prince Saj, an award-winning Gospel Artist who believes in bringing people closer to God by utilizing the sound the Lord permits him to use. He is the founder of the “Fully Jesus” movement, and has been steadily spreading the Gospel with numerous singles over the years. He believes in impacting the nation with a refreshing, vibrant sound which is available for all with the single, “God With Us”.

Produced by DaJourney, “God With Us” is Prince Saj’s way of spreading the truth to the world. Saj’s image is not one that readily identifies him as a Christian to some, but God speaks through him, and it’s emphasized with this song. Many tend to believe that dressing up in suits, fancy hats and dresses make for the right attire for the Churchgoer, but the song shares that it’s not about what you present yourself in that makes you a Christian, it’s about your intentions, belief in the word, and actions. The song is readily available for people of all ages, and tastes, and highlights an individual who takes God everywhere he goes and is quick with the word of God. With a rapid delivery, the usage of modern production that’s inspired by Afrobeats and Dancehall, and solid lyrics, “God With Us” has been enjoying positive release since its release. The song was featured on his 2023 award-winning debut EP “Conquest”, and has been going viral on Social Media recently. A Music Video is in the works for “God With Us”, and plans take the single to more territories in the coming weeks. Prince Saj continues to use his platform keep the Gospel prominent on Social Media, and not only win over new listeners, but new souls for Christ.

Prince Saj has been on the Gospel Music scene for a number of years. With a more modern take on the genre, he allows God to use him as a vessel to spread positive messages. He is the recipient of a Sterling Award for “EP of the Year” with “Conquest”, started the “Fully Jesus” movement in the Caribbean and parts of the world, his music has received cosigns from many in the Gospel fraternity, has performed at a number of prominent Gospel events, and the music has been highlighted by the likes of popular Twitch Streamer Kai Cenat, and former NBA Player/Media Personality Shaquille O’Neal. Prince Saj ushers in a new wave of Christian music, and he invites everyone to join in and spread the Gospel.

Prince Saj’s “God With Us” single is out now on all digital music streaming platforms. His “Conquest” EP is out now on all digital music streaming platforms.

Posted on by swadedavillain

Tech giant Apple has always been one of the leading companies when it comes to new devices. From the iPhones, to Macbooks, to Airpods, the company has contributed to the way people consume content, and made tasks easier. Earlier today, they launched new devices as a part of their “Wonderlust” September event. While the public will have new tech to spend money on, Apple launched a new campaign for their Apple Watch line featuring a familiar sound. It was none other than Gospel Artist Jermaine Edwards, viral sensation Rushawn Ewears, and Production duo Trinix’s “Beautiful Day (Remix)“.

“Beautiful Day” was originally recorded and released by Jermaine Edwards in 2014, but was given new life when a 2017 video of a young Rushawn Ewears reciting the song made a series of appearances on Social Media in late 2022/early 2023, and numerous remixes were made which included a version done by Trinix. To date, Trinix’s version of “Beautiful Day” has surpassed 45 Million views on Youtube, and the popularity of the viral videos and remixes helped to secure a Sony Music UK deal for Edwards, and opportunities for Ewears. Apple’s new campaign highlights the many times the Apple Watch has helped people who have had health issues, sharing a few stories throughout, and them celebrating birthdays in their respective homes. The “Beautiful Day” remix was used for the soundtrack, and will definitely boost the profiles of everyone involved.
