Straight outta Portmore today is Dancehall Artist Hazard. Dropping “World Revolves Around Me“, Hazard borrows Desiigner’s “Panda” Instrumental and delivers some bars to keep his fans in the loop as he gears up to release more music. A part of the Lee Milla Productions camp, he was recently featured on Milla’s “Memory Lane Riddim” which also featured Vershon and Alkaline.

Recently, US Rapper/Chef Action Bronson took to a trip to Jamaica. Known for his love of the Jamaican music, food and culture, he filmed an episode of his popular “F**k That’s Delicious” series there. During his time here, he also recorded a few tracks including today’s “Mr. 2 Face“. With guest appearances by fellow Rapper Meyhem Lauren and Reggae Artist Jah Tiger, Bronson and Meyhem traded bars while Jah Tiger breathed new life into an old track (unsure of the date he recorded it). An interesting collaboration from the trio as they mix Hip Hop with some good Reggae and deliver a chill vibe. You can catch Bronson, Meyhem and Jah Tiger in the latest episode of “F*ck That’s Delicious” on Viceland this week. Off Bronson’s upcoming “Blue Chips 7000” Mixtape, check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
The Dancehall Dark Angel and Spartan General Tommy Lee Sparta is back with a brand new visual. Titled “Soul Reaper” and directed by Pang Pang, Tommy gives viewers a glimpse into his world while dropping dark lyrics about making “duppies” and name dropping various communities in Jamaica that make it their practice. One thing that I liked about Tommy Lee Sparta was that in the past couple years he was dropping music videos at a reasonable pace. I hope this year sees more of them.

Dropping a new visual today is Jamaican Hip Hop Artist, Imije. Titled “Rankins” and directed by Kemstyle Studios and featuring T.M.O., the two Rappers kicked the flow up a notch and drop commanding lyrics over a hard hitting Mordecai Beats production that was blessed with a Shabba Ranks “Respect” sample. Respect the Red Block hustle. Off Imije’s “Immortals EP” (available here), check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
Is this a preview of Kill Bill 3? The Jamaican Karate Kid? No my readers, this is the latest music video from Dancehall Artist, Tifa. Featuring her singles “The Champ” and “Big Bumper“, this was directed by RD Studios with cameos by Dancer/Media Personality Schoy Stewart as “Sensei“, and Dancehall Artist Chi Ching Ching as “The Judge“. In “The Champ“, Tifa is on a mission to prove that “when gyal good“, she is the greatest with help from Schoy. In “Big Bumper“, Tifa plays host to a “Big Bumper” contest where women present their derrieres to three judges in hopes that one will be crowned a winner. Not one to miss with her videos, Tifa has always worked with creative minded people to bring us very unique and enjoyable visuals over the years. From sword wielding to booty (real and fake) shaking, check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
