We Remember The Late Frankie Paul In Our “Cover Kings Vol. 3” Playlist

Posted on by swadedavillain

On October 19, music lovers celebrated the 60th birthday of the late Jamaican Vocalist, Frankie Paul. Having made his transition in 2017, Paul was one of the go-to Singers in Dancehall and Reggae. Dubbed the “Jamaican Stevie Wonder” due to visual impairment, but a brilliant talent as a Singer, he became a star since his younger days, piling on hits, singles, and albums in his solid career. Today, we remember his exceptional talent, but also his knack for knocking out a Cover Song. Tune in to our new Playlist, “Cover Kings Vol. 3 – Frankie Paul“.

With the new “Cover Kings” Playlist, we highlight some of the many cover songs Frankie Paul released over the years. From covering Guy, Lionel Richie, Loose Ends, Bobby Brown, to covering fellow Jamaican Artists Dennis Brown and John Holt, Paul was a 1 of 1 talent. Listeners can reminisce on the first time they heard these songs, and for a moment forget about the stress of the world. We miss Frankie Paul on the scene, but he left behind a legacy that’s unmatched. Thank you Frankie Paul, and continue to sleep well.

.@ChrisMalachi & @JobyJayMusic Give Love A “TRY” For New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

Someone once said, “The World needs love…“, and while that may be true, it’s a challenge nowadays because sometimes the wrong person gets that love. Heartbreaks, lies, deceit, and stress come with giving love to the wrong person. Despite that, there are some who still believe in their pursuit of finding that right one. Recording Artists Chris Malachi and Joby Jay believe in love, and like their new single, they give it a “TRY“.

Produced by Paris LaMont, Chris Malachi and Joby Jay speak for those who are afraid to give their hearts another chance, to take that leap of faith in “TRY”. We get a song where two hopelessly in love people look back at their experiences in the pursuit of love, and despite their fears, they’re willing to give it another shot. Chris and Joby join in melodies throughout, providing encouragement through music, and we expect this one to do well with listeners. The Artists have been staying consistent this year, when they’re not recording, they’re showcasing their skills at live events. Love is lovely they say, if you’re afraid to give it another go, listen to Chris and Joby’s new single, and make that move forward.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Little Roy – Columbus Ship (1981)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Every year around this time for the past few years, we aim to put down the name of the once-famed Italian Explorer, Christopher Columbus. Whether through playing music that spoke against him, renaming locations that once shared his name, and getting rid of statues made in his likeness, people are doing more to put down a wicked Man who has been celebrated for so long. Tomorrow (Oct. 13) is celebrated as “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” in North America, which was originally “Columbus Day“, and we salute the original natives. Today’s “Oldies Sunday” selection comes from Little Roy, and we check out, “Columbus Ship“.

Released through Tafari/Copasetic in 1981, Little Roy sheds light on the experience of the Black Man during Slavery in, “Columbus Ship”. The song speaks on his experience from being held in captivity against his will, taken to new lands on a Ship belonging to Christopher Columbus, and being forced to slave on Plantations, and suffer through it all. The song is just one of many that pulled the wool from over the vision of the people who idolized figures who exploited nations, oppressed people of colour, and committed various crimes of Humanity. “Columbus Ship” was featured on Little Roy’s 1981 album of the same name, and was well-received by listeners over the years.

Since the release of “Columbus Ship”, Little Roy continued to have a successful music career, releasing more music, and performing on stages around the world. He is still active in some parts of the World, where tracks like “Columbus Ship” is still played to this day. Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day when it comes.

Thank You Little Roy For This Tune!
