It’s Time For @Bawse_Dawg To “ELEV8” With New Album

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s been a long time coming, but Dancehall/Reggae Artist Bling Dawg is finally taking his career to the next level. Breaking out in the early 2000s armed with a aggressive raspy flow and a commanding presence, Bling Dawg had everyone saying, “If anuh me a who” and “A Ricky Rudie! A.k.a. Bling Dawg!“. While he has a respectable amount of hit singles to his name, he never gave his fans an album. After a few transformations in his personal life and career, Bling Dawg’s vision is clearer than ever. Today, Bling Dawg releases his album, “ELEV8“.

Featuring 19 tracks, “ELEV8” is released through US/Guyana based label Creative Titans. The album finds Bling Dawg on a journey to expand his mindset, deliver music with a message, and still show that even after 20+ years, he still can make great music. This is Bling Dawg’s world, and he shares his perspective on various topics, provides some consciousness when we need it, tackles every production thrown his way, and stays sharp on every line. When you have sounds from Damian “Junior Gong” Marley, Dawg House Productions, Baby G, Ferdinand “Young Boy” Maynard Jr., Bobby Digital, Dameon Gayle, Bulby York, and Starplayer Music Group are on board, you’re in for something special. Bling’s not alone on “ELEV8” as he brings along friends like Popcaan, Christopher Martin, Tanya Stephens, Romain Virgo, Morgan Heritage, Bounty Killa, and Busy Signal for this new uplifting journey. “ELEV8” is a solid release from an Artist who despite the odds, emerged more focused than ever, never chased trends, and showed that his work is not done. It’s time for something new.

Bugle & Nation Boss - "Experience" music video on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Reggae #BugleAn9ted #NationBoss

“Experience” @BugleAn9ted & @1NationBoss’ Collaboration In New Visual

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s been close to 2 months since Reggae/Dancehall Artist Bugle released his latest album, “Toxicity“. The album has been doing well since its release, with fans sharing their favourite selections, and praising Bugle for another great body of work. The grind continues as Bugle has been putting out quality content in support of the album. While many were thrilled with the Nation Boss collaboration called, “Experience“, you can now enjoy it even more with the release of its music video.

Directed by KhingCam and done in collaboration with Cooriya Bikes, Bugle and Nation Boss ride through the Kingston streets bringing their track to life. The single was highly anticipated before its summer 2021 release, and helped to drum up even more buzz for the “Toxicity” album. The Cooriya Bikes have a buzz though, we may need a couple of them with our branding (who can make that happen? 🥺). The visual for “Experience” is a clean one, and shows some well needed unity, and some fun thanks to the bike riding. Look out for more Bugle content.
