.@MichaelBrun Scores A “Touchdown” With @JBalvin, Tasan, Bounty Killa, & Beenie Man

Posted on by swadedavillain

Haitian DJ/Producer Michaël Brun has been doing very well these past few years, and he continues to do so this year. During the Covid era, he reached out to Colombian star J Balvin, Dancehall giants Bounty Killa and Beenie Man, and Singer/Songwriter Tasan (Daughter of Gospel Dancehall legend Papa San) for the track, “Touchdown“. In 2024, the track was made public through a promotional video for the NFL, and the people have been asking for its official release. Earlier, Brun premiered the official Music Video.

Directed by Jenzar and shot in multiple locations, “Touchdown” is a fun track from Michaël Brun, Bounty Killa, J Balvin, Tasan, and Beenie Man. With a focus on connecting cultures through music, the video for “Touchdown” highlights a mix of fashion, fun, dance, good vibes, and the Island lifestyle. The Artists brought together their a-game, and we feel the energy throughout the clip. We look forward to even more collaborations featuring these Artists (and we hope Creative Titans makes it happen). It’s not a basket, it’s a touchdown!

OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas) Yole Derose – Tonton Nwèl Cheri (1989)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Bonjou, hope all is well with you all, and the holiday spirit is active. We have another Christmas selection for you for “Oldies Sunday“. For today’s selection, we head over to Haiti to check out Yole Derose’s “Tonton Nwèl Cheri (Dear Santa Claus)“.

Produced by Ansy Derose and released through Les Producteurs Artistiques in 1989, Yole Derose shares a special message to jolly ol’ St. Nick in “Tonton Nwèl Cheri”. Awaiting his arrival with much eagerness, the Derose takes the role of a child who wishes for gifts on Christmas as her parents are poor and unable to provide them. She makes a request for a doll, but later adds on more items to her list. She also shares of the misfortunes in her household as her parents are unemployed and unable to afford basic necessities, her brother is sick, but pleads that if Santa cannot give toys, at least send something that’s of major importance to the household. The song sheds light on some of the realities that people are facing during the holidays, as it’s not always cheerful singing and gift giving. “Tonton Nwèl Cheri” became a popular Christmas song in Haiti, and was featured on the album, “Quand Mon Cœur Bat La Mesure“, which was released in 1989. Over the years, it has received a number of cover versions, and remains a well-remembered Christmas song in Haiti, and other parts of the world.

STAY TUNED FOR ANOTHER CHRISTMAS CLASSIC ON “OLDIES SUNDAY”!

Sarina Desir "What U Didn't Know" on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Haiti #Maryland #PopMusic #Music #13thStreetPromotions #WhatUDidntKnow #HaitianAmerican #Caribbean #Sarina #WhatUDidntKnowEP

.@SarinaDesir Is Looking For The One In “What U Didn’t Know”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Tensions may be rising, but we’re enjoying new music over here. Get familiar with Sarina Désir, a Haitian-American Singer based in Maryland who has been steadily emerging with her sound that consists of R&B, Pop, and Hip Hop Music. Recently, she released her new EP, “What U Didn’t Know“, and she now keeps the ball rolling with the title track.

Produced by Cherry Beatz, Sarina is looking for “the one” in “What U Didn’t Know“. Over thumping production, Sarina gets melodic as she shares the requirements when it comes to finding a partner. In a time where selfishness and deception are rampant, she seeks to give and receive unconditional love, find someone not so typical, and a connection that is more than physical. “What U Didn’t Know” gives off great energy that is bound to have listeners dancing and singing alone, and may just be an instant favourite for some. The track is a part of the Singer’s 6-track EP that is filled with even more goodness, and we urge you to get familiar with her.
