.@TheRoyalBlu Brings “Hype” With Substance In New Visual!


Hype unno want, hype unno a go get! Having given us the single and a stunning visualizer last year, Royal Blu returns with the official music video for his single, “Hype“! Directed/Animated by Ikem Smith, Royal Blu steps out in some bad Clarks to dominate this video game world as various villains attempt to annihilate him. They fail however, and throughout the video, it shows more and more that Royal Blu may just be too big/powerful for the scene he’s in, and needs to dominate in other lands. We also see him sharing with a Therapist his challenges, and in conclusion accepts what is laid out for him. In the end, he just has be himself, no matter what people think or say. Ikem Smith shows out in this visual, making way for more creative visuals in the Caribbean entertainment scene. It’s about time you give him a call.

Will Royal Blu drop a project this year? While we won’t give you any inside information, just know that much more music is on the way. Check out our Royal Blu Playlist featuring some of his features over the years. Check out the video below, and share with a friend.

.@Jah9 Gives Us Strong Words & Beautiful Music In “Note To Self” Short Film


When Jah 9 speaks, many will listen. With a career that has been well-regarded and respected, she continues to elevate to higher heights. With album #3, “Note To Self” seeing a release date, she gets in her creative bag to give us the “Note To Self” Short Film.

Directed by Fernando F. Hevia and Samo Kush, Jah 9 dives into the theme of self-awareness through her combination of Music and Art into a beautiful experience that runs for 13 minutes. She shares that, “Getting to know one’s self can seem like an obscure pursuit, but the study is indeed rewarding. Get intimate with your boundaries and the ways in which your essence is contained. In many ways, surviving can be like a war against a vast unknown world, it will prove invaluable having an intimate understanding of yourself and the materials, talents, flaws and gifts you are given. A proper inventory is key. The Note To Self documentary gives context to the album which I do my best to share myself in this state of consistent inventory management,” Jah9 states. “These themes and transitions are visited on the songs throughout the album, and then revisited in narrative form through this documentary. Together they present a summary of my latest effort, a self thesis.

While we all take in this wonderful showcase, Jah 9’s “Note To Self” album touches the Globe and your ears on March 13. Check out the video below, and share with a friend. Show us some love/follow us on Twitter and Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.
