Dropping some consciousness today are Kabaka Pyramid and I-Wayne with their new video, “Versatile“. Directed by G’Ovany and shot by Mario Francis in Cassia Park and East Kingston, we see Kabaka and I-Wayne gather with their brothers and speak about the issues in society, artists promoting the wrong things, bigging up Tessanne Chin and her talent, and how we must all be versatile. We also see scenes where a youth steals from a vendor, an old lady needing old for her lamp and of course the rasta flag waving. I liked this song the first time I’ve heard it and I’m glad a video came out for it. What do you think? Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

Today’s new video comes from I Octane. Titled “Trendsetta” and directed by Bling Blang Productions, I Octane and friends are celebrating life, avoiding negative people, and creating a following in this one. It’s all about partying, sexy ladies, liquor overflowing, high grades blowing in the air and everyone having a grand time over the Good Good Productions riddim. Great effort here and Bling Blang can add another hit to the list. I Octane has been hitting the airwaves hard and with his album “My Journey” out now, there’s no slowing down.

Accurate! Today Kabaka Pyramid released the visual for a single that has been making its rounds. The DJ Frass produced “Never Gonna Be A Slave“, which was directed by Eric Christian King and shot in Kingston, Kabaka speaks on not being a slave to the system, never selling out on his beliefs, how people suffer in the system, discrimination, and promoting consciousness. Very good video here and I like the shots where Kabaka is on top of the building and when he’s interacting with people. “The fire burning immaculate“.

Dancehall Music and Hip Hop have influenced many the world over but today Jamaican Hip Hop meets Italian Hip Hop thanks to Vaccadon, Jamil and TMO The Militant One with their new video. Titled “Zoo Bwoy“, we hear the artists talk about the lives they live (in their native tongues) and we see Vaccadon and TMO interact with others in a studio while Jamil holds it down with his crew elsewhere. While many may not be fluent in Italian, we can enjoy the visuals and the three rappers’ deliveries. Italy meets Jamaica. What do you think?

“United we stand, divided we fall” is the message singjay Jahmiel is bringing to us today with the video for his recent single. Titled “United” and directed by Ricardo Williams, co-directed by Kahlila Anderson and shot in Pinnacle and Trelawny, Jahmiel delivers a message promoting unity while showing how divided people can be at times. A good effort here as Jahmiel is one of the artists you should be checking for as he delivers some really good music. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
