.@MainlyMali Throws A Dance Party For “B**bo” Visual

Posted on by swadedavillain

Last month, New York-based Recording Artist Alex Mali released her new “Sweet & Spicy” EP. Adding to a great Summer, Mali brought some extra vibes with the project, setting up to close off the year in a big way. She has been making content in support of the EP, and earlier she shared the visual for the track, “Bumbo“.

Co-directed with CAREESE, it’s a dance party going on for Alex Mali’s “Bumbo”. Along with her dance partners in a Studio, Mali kicks off a bunch of moves to the fiery single that was produced by ianoBeatz. The track samples Lady Saw and Spragga Benz’s “Backshot“, which was produced by Rookie Production on the “Superstar Riddim“, and released in 2001. The song also borrows an element from the late Peter Tosh’s “Oh Bombo Klaat” from 1981. You may see a few familiar faces throughout the video, and you might find yourself getting in the dancing mood as well. Alex Mali is known to the bring the Caribbean-tinged vibes with the music, and if you aren’t familiar, you can tune in to the “Sweet & Spicy” EP which is out now!

Titled “Bob Marley: One Love”, we shared that a number of prominent names in Jamaican music will make their acting debuts as key characters. One name, who will also play a key character, wasn’t announced until recently. His name is Alex Gallimore, but the music scene knows him as Alexx A-Game.

Alexx A-Game will make his acting debut in the long-awaited “Bob Marley: One Love” Film. Playing the role of the legendary Peter Tosh, A-Game knows that his role is very important as the late Tosh was a founding member of The Wailers along with Marley and the late Bunny Wailer, and an iconic figure in Reggae Music. “I’m still searching for words to express the feeling,” shared an ecstatic A-Game in a recent Instagram post. “I’m more than honored to be a part of the telling of the legendary story of BOB MARLEY. It has been a life changing experience. Thanks to Avy Kaufman, Reinaldo Marcus-Green, Ziggy Marley, and Paramount Pictures and the rest of the team for trusting me with the role of an iconic and legendary figure such as ‘Peter Tosh’. I got a chance to work with some of the most amazing people in Film/Production who are now family.“

Alexx A-Game, a former member of the Blu Print Band, has been an active as a solo Artist since the early 2010s, releasing a number of singles including “A-Game Everyday“, “Double” featuring Tory Lanez, “Rise Up Now“, “Go Harder“, and a couple Mixtapes including “Real ‘N’ True Vol. 1“.
