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!

Tenor Saw’s “On Top Of The World” Sampled In @GhostfaceKillah’s “Champion Sound”

Posted on by swadedavillain

When Dancehall meets Hip Hop, it’s always a vibe. Recently, Hip Hop legend and member of the iconic Wutang Clan Ghostface Killah released his latest album, “Set The Tone“. The album is the Rapper’s 12th solo studio release, and it features a number of big names, and he taps into new and familiar sounds. One of the familiar sounds dates back to the 1980s, and it highlights one of Dancehall’s classic Vocalists.

On the track “Champion Sound” off of Ghostface Killah’s “Set The Tone” album, the late Tenor Saw’s “On Top Of The World” was sampled. The track was made as a Dubplate for the Stereo Mars Sound System, which was owned by Businessman Kenneth Black a.k.a. “Skeng Don“, and was played at a PNP (The People’s National Party) Rally in 1986. Tenor Saw had a successful music career in the 1980s and was one of the most influential voices in the early digital Reggae/Dancehall era, but his potential and life was cut short in 1988. “Champion Sound” was produced by Ghostface and Danny Caiazzo, and features US-based Dancehall Artist Beniton, who holds his own alongside the New York Hip Hop legend. Ghostface Killah’s “Set The Tone” album is out now.
