Singer Tabeta Cshae was touted as one of the best cameo performances at Reggae Sumfest two years ago. After a brief hiatus, has returned to the spotlight with a spanking new music video aptly titled, “Memory Lane.” The video is directed by Ricardo Williams of Sky High Films. Producers, Antay Muziq have made the single available via iTunes and all major music stores via Zojak worldwide, effective today.
The singer is jubilant about her fresh projects, yet focused. She’s determined to achieve her life long aspiration, to leave her own impression on the music industry, as her icons Mariah Carey and Sizzla Kalonji have already done.
Tabeta believes, “A lot of people are familiar with the voice but not the face. They know the song, “Spartan Angels” done with Tommy Lee. My voice has been apart of projects for Sly and Robbie, Barrington Levy, Handel Tucker, the beautiful Etana and many more.”
Her new management team headed by Marlon Baugh of City Rock Entertainment has already began rolling out plans to achieve more prominence for the vocalist’s image. One of the many steps includes Fi Wi Media’s, “Artiste Jamaica – Island Tour 2015”. This is a month long tour covering all major towns throughout Jamaica where Tabeta performances live. She will then move on to a US promo tour that begins on September 19th.
I will be in the states next month to promote a hot new track,” Tonight” for YE Productions. The video is on it’s way with a projected release date of late October. There are lots more in the pipeline, production-wise; it’s a good look for me at this point. The aim is taking it to the next level”, Tabeta declared.
Forming like Voltron with each member having their own lethal dose of bars are the likes of Five Steez, The Sickest Drama, Nomad Carlos and Inztinkz a.k.a. The Council. Titled “Council Arts” and produced by Inztinkz, the members of the newly formed clique reintroduce themselves in the best way they know how effortlessly over a hard hitting production. Having heard their solo works prior, this collaboration screams “Get a EP/Mixtape out now!”. Fortunately they’re working on one so get ready. Jamaican Hip Hop is still on the rise, pay attention!

“Nah Sell out Mi Fren Dem” Deejay Khago delivered a fiery set at Flow Skool Aid. He added a sweet surprise, for three lucky audience members. “Jamworld me want see three kids weh just pass them exam. Me want give them something to go back to school. Where the kids weh a start high school September?” Khago asked, as he looked through the thick crowd.
In no time he was flocked by students in need of the opportunity for financial assistance. He quizzed his applicants to confirm they qualified. This resulted in three students, each receiving the extra treat of a laptop computer for the new school year.
Khago’s performance continued on a high note with non-stop ferocity. He delivered hits such as Tun Up The Ting, Energy and Dolla Bill. The performer recently merged forces with Heavy-D Promotions, as his official booking representative. His management team includes Diamond Ink and Sky Records.
Today was a day of premieres for Safaree. Not only did he premiere his new website and music video, he premiered his collaboration with ZJ Liquid and Ishawna titled “Try My Love“. Here SB and Ishawna get raunchy over a head bobbing ZJ Liquid’s production. I believe a music video would make this track even better as I believe it’ll get lots of spins. What do you think?

Hopping on Ward 21’s “Volume” wasn’t enough, so he had to shoot a video for it. Directed by Jay Parpworth and shot in Jamaica, SB and the lunatics of Ward 21 each drop bars and give the early 2000s Riddim new life. Pretty cool seeing all members of Ward 21 (except Kunley) in the video with SB, looking forward to more work with them. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
