OLDIES SUNDAY: Windel Haye – Haunted House (1979)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Every year we hear people say, “Jamaicans don’t celebrate Halloween“, yet there are Jamaicans going to costume parties and Halloween-themed events. Make up your minds. Anyway, with October 31 basically around the corner, it’s time we featured a ghostly selection on “Oldies Sunday“. Today, we feature Windel (also known as Windew) Haye, and his single, “Haunted House“.

Produced by Sir Coxsone Dodd and released through Studio One in 1979, Windel Haye stands tall on “Haunted House”. He shares that he’s ready to conquer the beast, and any evil force that wishes to step into his space. Whether day or night, he’s armed, and he’s anticipating a battle. “Haunted House” was inspired by Barnabas Collins, a TV Vampire from the 1960s series, “Dark Shadows” that gained some popularity in Jamaica. Haye’s tune is aimed at the bloodsucking character, as he details how he will eradicate him. The song gained some popularity shortly after its release, and contended with tracks like “Barnabas Collins” by Lone Ranger, which was cited to be an inspiration. It was also released in the early days of Dancehall Music, showcasing the “Toasting” style that would quickly become the wave.

Since the release of “Haunted House”, not much was heard of Windel Haye. “Haunted House” was one of two tracks released by him in 1979, but in 1980, he released “Roots & Herb Style” under the name, “Field Marshall Haye“. “Haunted House” is still mentioned by many. Happy Halloween to those who celebrate it, and those who don’t celebrate it.

Thank You Windel Haye For This Tune!

Eddy G Bomba Lives Life Like A Game Of “Jumanji”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The kind of life Dancehall Artist Eddy G Bomba lives is a fast one, but when the rewards come, they are aplenty. The Deejay has been enjoying quite the buzz this year, with a lot of viral success on Social Media. However, it’s not always good times as he has been targeted by the Police, who seek to cause a decrease in his earnings with a ban on live performances. Thanks to his management, they are trying to seek a resolution, but in the meantime, Eddy released the video for, “Jumanji“.

Directed by RB Visuals, Eddy G Bomba lives life like a game of “Jumanji”. The video finds him opening up the game from the popular movie franchise, but soon finds himself getting to the money, Women, and luxury vehicles. The track was featured on Bomba’s debut Mixtape, “Jumanji Book“, which has given the Deejay a lot of attention since its release this past June. There may be a ban on his live shows at the moment, but they can’t ban his presence. Time to roll the dice.

Grab A Bottle Of Vybz Kartel’s “White Rum (Special)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Some will say a party is not a party without some of their favourite liquor. While that may be true, but according to Vybz Kartel, a party is not a party without some of his specially-labeled alcoholic beverage. Fans will remember the days of “Street Vybz Rum” and its popularity, but the Deejay recently announced that he’s bringing back the liquor, but under a new name, “Str8 Vybz“. While it’s not officially out yet, he celebrates with the release of the new single, “White Rum (Special)“.

Released through Vybz Kartel Muzik, Vybz Kartel is in a drinking mood, and he invites you to get your cups up in “White Rum (Special)”. The new track gives fans a feeling of nostalgia, as he previously had hits that focused on liquor. If you like your drink straight or with a chaser, it’s all good in the party, as long as you’re having a good time. With the return of “Street Vybz Rum” (now named “Str8 Vybz”), there will be lots of toasting, sipping, and vibing come this holiday season. Remember to drink responsibly.

Chronic Law Moves Like A “Star” In New Video

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Chronic Law is one of the hardest working people in music right now. If you doubt that, check his output this year. From singles to videos, he has been very busy, and his fanbase is enjoying everything. He’s described as many things, but lazy is not one of them. In his journey, he is a “Star“.

Produced by Major Seven/VAS Productions/King BNJMN, Chronic Law acknowledges his status in “Star”. While fame has brought him to different levels, “Fada Dark” is still in effect, and he has the necessary tools, and people to ensure safety, and the badness when it’s time. In the Music Video directed by Shane Creative, we see highlights of the Deejay taking his talents to different places, and emphasizes that he rolls deep, and they all are on standby incase things get drastic. The Deejay started in St. Thomas, but his name is known worldwide. The “Law Boss” continues to make boss moves.

Silk Boss Channels His Pain In “Vent”

Posted on by swadedavillain

They say health is wealth, but for some of us, our mental health has been in the red. There’s a lot going on in the world, and we’re all affected by them in one way or another. Some of us have been struggling to make it to the end of the day, some have sadly chosen other paths. Dancehall Artist Silk Boss has had his share of troubles over the past few years, and he has been vocal about some of them. He fights his battles, but now he’s taking the time to “Vent“.

Produced by Rockit Muzik/Ice Queen Records/Dynasty Global, Silk Boss channels through song in, “Vent”. He’s facing demons, he’s fighting battles mentally and physically, and he’s honest about his mental health being affected, and the things he has done. From fake friends, to deceptive partners, he’s asking for guidance to overcome them all. The Saii Media Group-directed Music Video shows the Deejay sporting a Hospital gown, being bounded by ropes, and confined to a Wheelchair throughout the clip. There are times where evil lurks in his presence, but he’s doing his best to get away from it. Silk Boss is definitely one of those Artists who doesn’t hide what he goes through, even if it means getting a negative reaction to the public. We all have our battles, but we hope the Deejay finds some peace in the meantime.
