Posted on by swadedavillain

Recently, video streaming platform Netflix released the new series, “Starting 5“. The series follows the lives of 5 NBA superstars, namely Lebron James, Anthony Edwards, Jimmy Butler, Jayson Tatum, and Domantas Sabonis, during the 2023-2024 NBA season. The series features a number of popular songs, but a very familiar one that originated in Jamaica made an appearance.

During episode 5 of “Starting 5”, named “The Struggle Is Real“, “Just One Of Those Days” a.k.a. “Dry Cry” by Sizzla Kalonji was played. The song was released in 2002, and was produced by “Bobby Digital” Dixon. It has been sampled a number of times over the years, and remains of his biggest crossover hits. The song was played during a segment about the Boston Celtics, and its star player Jayson Tatum. “Starting 5” became one of Netflix’s most anticipated shows in recent months, and has secured viewership in the Millions. “Starting 5” is still playing on Netflix.

.@JadaKingdom Samples A Sizzla Classic For “Those Days”

Posted on by swadedavillain

January is a month for new music, and a few highly-anticipated ones have been given the green light. Last year, Dancehall Artist Jada Kingdom previewed a single called, “Those Days“. The opening vocals instantly took listeners back in time as Reggae/Dancehall Icon Sizzla Kalonji’s 2002 classic “Just One Of Those Days” was the featured sample, drumming up a lot of requests for its release. The wait is over as Jada finally unleashed the tune.

Produced by Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor and released through Money Well Spent, Jada Kingdom shares some of her down times on “Those Days”. She asserts her value, emphasizing her need to take care of herself and people who matter the most to her. Her days may not always be the best, she holds the faith, keeps an eye on fleeting people in her life, and move forward as stress free as possible. The sampled “Just One Of Those Days” by Sizzla was produced by the late “Bobby Digital” Dixon, and is one of Kalonji’s biggest hits to date having successfully crossed over on the International market in the early 2000s. We believe there’s a remixed version of “Those Days” featuring fresh vocals from Sizzla, but we’ll have to wait and see if that will materialize. Jada Kingdom has hinted that she’s working on an album and more music with “Di Genius”, we just have to stay tuned to see what’s next. Just one of those days…
