.@ValkyrieArcadia Aims To Stand Out With “Candy Rush” Debut

Posted on by swadedavillain

When Jamaicans get into something new, we try to own it. Girl group Valkyries Of Arcadia took over screens of every kind, bring a vibe wherever they show up, and now are taking on the music scene. The group consists of Empr3ss Nile, SilverN3ko, Zuri San, Quani, and Buggie, and while they dominate the cosplay, beauty, and gaming arenas, they see music as the next big step. The group makes their debut for 2026 with, “Candy Rush“.

Released through V.O.A. Studios, the Valkyries Of Arcadia seek to stand out with their pre-single, “Candy Rush”. As the title suggests, it’s all about sweet things and treats here as the girls are just having fun on the track. With the K-Pop wave finding its way onto our shores since its debut, the V.O.A. found inspiration there, and decided to open the door for a new subgenre called JAM-Pop, a mix of K-Pop, Pop Music, and Dancehall. The lyrics may not blow you away and the overall production and direction of the track may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but when we Jamaicans try out something, there will be stumbles before it gets great. “Candy Rush” has commercial promise, as parts of the song could be used to promote products, and the ladies are no strangers to the promotion game. The track is for all ages, especially for the children as it brings a fun and exciting vibe, and for us older ones, it will take some of us back to the popular “I’m a Kool Kid” track that promoted Kool Kidz juices.

With everything sweet, “Candy Rush” was inspired by LOL Snackstop, a popular confectionery store located in Halfway Tree, and one of the main sponsors of the Valkyries Of Arcadia. The track serves as paying homage to the company, and furthering the connection as they enjoy a lengthy partnership. The track has been met with mixed reviews since its official release, but that’s just the rite of passage many Creatives go through when they’re just starting out, and the V.O.A. crew is not exempt from that. For the fans, be sure to keep this in rotation, and with the right direction, the V.O.A. will knock it out the park with the next release.

Paris Coutain Looks To Win Her Over With “Beat It”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Time to turn up the temperature, and Trini Recording Artist Paris Coutain has an interesting proposition for the ladies for the summer. He has been releasing singles over the past few months that connected with everyone, but for the hot season, he wants to get closer to the ladies. He recently released the single, “Beat It“.

Produced by Bing Bang Studioz/Studio Impact on the “Rose Riddim“, Paris Coutain wants to have fun with the ladies in a manner of ways in, “Beat It”. He’s not being shy about it, and some ladies may react differently, but once the convos are had, it’s all fun from there. He channels ‘82 MJ a little bit for the OLSTP-directed Visualizer, and he finds himself chatting with his people before pursuing a lovely lady on the street. The “Rose Riddim” has been taking up space in the music scene, and we can expect “Beat It” to do some damage.
