.@Nardwuar Interviews DJ Kool Herc For 51 Years Of Hip Hop

Posted on by swadedavillain

It all started on August 11, 1973 in The Bronx, New York, and now it’s more than a global phenomenon. Hip Hop turns 51 years old, and the world continues to keep it alive. It’s Pop Culture, it’s an influence for generations, it’s in the Olympics, it’s everywhere, and it all started with the Jamaican DJ Kool Herc. As a part of the celebrations, Canadian Media Personality/Journalist/Musician Nardwuar a.k.a. The Human Serviette caught up with the DJ for a quick conversation.

Hosted at the Beat Street Record Store in Vancouver, Canada, Nardwuar and DJ Kool Herc along with his younger Sister Cindy Campbell a.k.a. The First Lady Of Hip Hop spoke about the birth of Hip Hop, the records that Herc would play, the Influences, Herc’s achievements, The Bronx being the mecca, Hip Hop’s 51st year, and more. Hip Hop started in the park, and 1520 Sedgwick Avenue will forever be the landmark. There have been debates, but you can’t deny the Jamaican Immigrant DJ Kool Herc’s contributions, and his position as the “Godfather of Hip Hop“. The genre continues to evolve, and we appreciate the ones who helped to build its foundation, and contribute to its legacy. Happy 51st Birthday Hip Hop.

450 & @NLEChoppa1 Team Up For “Bad Gyal (Remix)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

All the bad gyal dem form a circle, this one is for you to enjoy. Dancehall Artist 450 continues his streak of top tier singles that will not only cause a scene in Jamaica, but shake up things in other parts of the world. Last year, he made some noise for the ladies with “Bad Gyal“, but this time around he calls them out for the “Bad Gyal (Remix)“.

Featuring US Rapper NLE Choppa, 450 is rounding up all the ladies for the “Bad Gyal (Remix)”. Choppa, who was raised in Memphis, Tennessee but shares a Jamaican background, dabbles in a lil Patois with 450, and they both share their admiration for the ladies who know how to keep them entertained. The collaboration was previewed earlier this year, but the official Music Video went through a series of delays. The Damaniac Visualz-directed clip finds the Artists partying it up with the ladies at a Mansion, and it comes just in time for the Summer party season. The collaboration looks to open up a few doors for 450, and we’ll possibly hear more from them in the future. It’s 10 mins to 5, and that means more hits.

US Rapper Ski Mask The Slump God has been one of the names that gained notoriety in the Hip Hop scene since the mid 2010s. Hailing from Broward County, Florida and raised by Jamaican parents, he made noise in the underground scene, and was a part of the generation that includes the late XXX Tentacion, Lil Uzi Vert, and Trippie Redd. Today, he released his latest album, “11th Dimension“, and has brought along a friend from Jamaica on one of the album’s tracks.

On track 15 off of Ski Mask The Slump God’s “11th Dimension” called “From Yard“, Dancehall Artist Skillibeng makes a guest appearance. Produced by Max Lord and Car!ton, Ski Mask and Skilli trade bars and flows throughout the track, tapping into some Jamaican elements as well. Skillibeng continues to rack up International features, which will in turn grant him even more International bookings and features.

Posted on by swadedavillain

You know how the badness go. Harlem-based Rapper/Actor Dave East is gearing up for an eventful Summer. With a new project called, “APT 6E” on the horizon, he’s giving the people a taste of what’s to come with a number of singles. One of the singles that will peak the listener’s interest is the track called, “Dangerous Riddum“.

Produced by Mike & Keys, DJ Khalil, AC, and Dan Seeff and featuring Jamaican Music legend Shaggy, Dave East lets the listeners know on “Dangerous Riddum” that the streets can get dangerous, but he is aware of what’s going down at all times. He keeps the peace, but has a piece nearby, and a radar for when the Law is tracking him down. Shaggy steps forward with a few choice words himself, letting you know that he can be the nice guy with the multitude of hits, but if you cross him, it nah go nice. The combination of Dave East and Shaggy may be odd to some, but it works. East previously worked with the likes of Junior Reid and Popcaan, and has always made a connection with his Caribbean side (Barbados and Dominican Republic). A lil bit of melody, some New York and Jamaican badness, and a tune that will be making its rounds leading up to the release of East’s forthcoming project. NPT!
