It’s A Full Circle Moment For @TheRoyalBlu & @Protoje With “Life From Kingston” Release

Posted on by swadedavillain

The 2010s saw the rise of Reggae Artist Protoje, and he helped to usher in what some would call the “Reggae Revival“. His music not only connected with the people, but inspired others to want to be a part of the new music revolution. One of those aspiring Artists was Royal Blu. The Spanish Town native entered the scene with his own style, and built a following. He became a part of a new class, and he continues to keep his fire burning. This year, he looks to release his debut album, “Spain Root“. Recently, he fueled the rollout with the release of, “Life From Kingston“.

Produced by RiddimBoss and featuring Protoje, it’s a full circle moment for Royal Blu with the release of, “Life From Kingston”. Blu was one of a number of young Artists Protoje had under his wing, giving him guidance, and showcasing his talent to a new audience in the early years. One of those times was at the event called, “Live From Kingston” in the 2010s. There were times where they should’ve collaborated, but now is the right time for just that. The song speaks on the Artists’ history together, recognizing their respective journeys, and giving thanks as their have made their own impact on the world. The two would join forces in a Shane Creative-directed Music Video, and viewers familiar with both can finally witness them in their element on the new collaboration. Royal Blu’s “Spain Root” album is expected to drop on June 27, while we’re on the lookout for Protoje announcing a new album sometime this year.

OLDIES SUNDAY: @BustaRhymes – Woo-Hah!! (1996)

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Month of June is recognized as “Caribbean American Heritage Month“, and on “Oldies Sunday“, we want to highlight a few Artists who are a part of this. Today, we highlight Jamaican-American Hip Hop legend Busta Rhymes with the single, “Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check“.

Produced by Rashad Smith and released through Elektra Records in 1996, Busta Rhymes made a crash with the single, “Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check”. This was his debut as a Solo Artist since his departure from the “Leaders Of The New School“, a Hip Hop group that was formed with himself, Dinco D, Charlie Brown, and Cut Monitor Milo in 1994. The track’s opening was a burst of energy from Rhymes, and it gave many listeners an introduction of an Artist who would dominate the scene. “Woo-Hah!!” was inspired by Funk legend George Clinton of the Parliament-Funkadelic, Hip Hop group The Sugarhill Gang, and Dancehall’s style and delivery. Given Rhymes’ Jamaican background and the energy that Clinton’s music delivered, those were essential in the creation of this song. The song featured what would be described as the Rapper’s manic delivery with a bevvy of rhymes throughout, and it was instantly well-received. The single was followed up with a Music Video directed by Hype Williams.

“Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check” was successful for Busta Rhymes as it gained high chart placements on Billboard in the US, UK, New Zealand, Sweden, and The Netherlands. The single was featured on Rhymes’ debut album, “The Coming“, and would go on to receive Platinum certification, selling over a Million copies. There was also a remix that was released shortly after featuring the late New York Rapper, ODB.

Since the release of “Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check”, Busta Rhymes would cement himself as a Hip Hop legend, a Global Ambassador of Music, and a New York Hip Hop King. Born in Brooklyn, New York to Jamaican parents, he always recognized his Jamaican background and upbringing, and it would show in a number of songs he released, collaborations, and Media moments. He would release a number of albums and singles that would earn him high sales, worldwide popularity, and high-profile accolades, and he is still active in music. He is recognized during “Caribbean American Heritage Month”, and “Woo-Hah!!” remains one of his classic releases.

Thank You Busta Rhymes For This Classic!
