After much anticipation, Rapper Nicki Minaj finally released her long-awaited “Pink Friday 2” album. Having been 5 years since her last release, she looks to take back her rightful place in music as she stepped back to have a family, dropping singles here and there. She also celebrates her birthday with this album. The 22 track album finds Nicki in her element along with some new vibes. A few of her friends show up throughout, including Dancehall Artists Skeng and Skillibeng on the track, “Forward From Trini“.

Produced by Basbeats and Melio Sounds, Nicki Minaj, Skeng, and Skillibeng take it to the Islands with their new collaborations. Armed with slick lines and their respective energies on the track, “Forward From Trini” looks to be a standout on “Pink Friday 2”. The track also sampled elements of the “Stink Riddim“, which was produced by Dave Kelly, and released in 1996. The Riddim featured hits by Wayne Wonder, Beenie Man, Baby Cham, and the late Captain Barkey. Skilli first worked with Nicki on the remix of “Crocodile Teeth” in 2021, while Skeng gained a new audience after Nicki hopped on his “Likkle Miss” single last year. Maybe we get a music video for this one. Nicki Minaj continues to show love to Jamaica, maybe she will perform her album on the Island soon. Barbz roll out!

Hip Hop legend Busta Rhymes continues to build more roads in his legacy, with his latest project being the new album, “Blockbusta“. The 19 track album finds him tapping into various sounds and influences, and is still delivering like the Dungeon Dragon he is. One thing he doesn’t leave out is his Jamaican influence. He sprinkles it throughout, but he does one better and enlists Shenseea on the track, “Open Wide“.

Produced by ANATII and featuring Chris Brown, Busta Rhymes gives us another one of his R&B-styled tunes that’s aimed at the ladies with “Open Wide”. CB gives us a few lines along with delivering his signature melodies on the chorus, and Shenseea flexes with her vocals as well as sneaks in a few slick lines as she takes on 2 giants in music. Shenseea continues to make her International run an active one, despite what the conversations have been saying about her progress. With a sophomore album on the horizon, we expect to hear even more from “Shen Yeng“. Busta Rhymes’ “Blockbusta” album is out now!

OLDIES SUNDAY: Reel 2 Real – I Like To Move It (1993)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Ready to turn up the vibes? For today’s Oldies Sunday selection, we’re throwing a party that even the pets will enjoy. Today, we go back to the 90s to check out Colombian/Trinidadian/American duo Reel 2 Real’s “I Like To Move It“.

Produced by Ralphie Muniz and 1/2 of Reel 2 Real’s Erick Morillo and released through Strictly Rhythm in 1993, “I Like To Move It” was Mark Quashie a.k.a. The Mad Stuntman a.k.a. the other 1/2 of Reel 2 Real’s showcase of deejaying over some House Music production. The high energy track was made to get the people moving and rock rooms, with Dancehall/Ragga-inspired lyrics being chanted throughout. With the line “I like to move it move it…“, listeners were in for a good time. The track was included on Reel 2 Real’s 1994 debut album, “Move It!“. “I Like To Move It” was an instant hit for ravers as it secured #1 chart placements in a number of countries including Belgium, Canada, France, Zimbabwe, The Netherlands, and the UK, and top 10 placements in even more countries. The track went on to win a number of awards over the years, went gold in Australia, France, the UK, The Netherlands, and Germany, and has been hailed as one of the best EDM, Party, and 90s songs of all time by a number of publications.

The success of “I Like To Move It” didn’t stop at just chart placements. It was remixed a number of times over the years as well. The track is one of the most frequently licensed songs, appearing on numbers of compilations yearly. It appeared in commercials for USPS, McDonalds, Durex, Jeep, Toyota, and the Fairy dishwasher brand, used in the video games “Just Dance“, “DJ Hero“, “Mario Strikers Charged“, and “SingStar Dance“, and a dance emote inspired by it appeared in “Fortnite“. It was included in a number of TV shows and Films including “American Dad!“, “New York Undercover“, and “Saving Silverman“, but it was at its most popular when it appeared in the “Madagascar” animated film franchise thanks to it being performed by the character King Julien, becoming the official theme song of the franchise. The song still holds a level of popularity to this day.

Since the release of “I Like To Move It”, Reel 2 Real went on to release more music before disbanding in 1997. Erick Morillo continued to produce and DJ until his death in 2020, while Mark Quashie continued to release more music over the years, in between performing “I Like To Move It”. Reel 2 Real owned the 90s, while their biggest hit is still making an impact.

THANK YOU REEL 2 REAL FOR THIS CLASSIC!

Rowdy Rebel Links Up With Chronic Law For “Words Of Law (Remix)”

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s no secret that Chronic Law’s music has made an impact worldwide. For a number of years, his brand of “Darkness” has touched many for better or worse, and his catalogue is filled with anthems. Earlier this year he released the track, “Words Of Law“, it definitely made an impact on US Rapper Rowdy Rebel, and made the link for the “Words Of Law (Remix)“.

Produced by MBlocc Records, Chronic Law and Rowdy Rebel trade verses on “Words Of Law (Remix)”. They share their own type of badness throughout, with perspectives from Jamaica and New York respectively. The two make for a great collaboration, and it would be a good move for them to collaborate on more tracks. Chronic Law continues to feed the streets with new music and visuals weekly, and we expect “Words Of Law (Remix)” to cover more ground. Fada Dark meets the GS9 Rebel.
