Production duo Circa Eleven are getting involved in the festivities this time around, and they have a new EP for the holidays.

Featuring 3 tracks, the lineup of Recording Artists Gio Mar (son of Wayne Marshall), Jay YGT, and Rizk are celebrating a “Dancehall Christmas” with Circa Eleven on “Peppa Lights, Vol. 1“. What started out as a conversation during a TikTok live about the need for some Dancehall-themed Christmas music this past November, quickly turned into a series of recordings from a number of Artists. When approaching the creation of the EP, Circa wanted to pay tribute to classic Christmas music on the production while the Artists shared their own prospectives when it came to Christmas music. On “First Christmas“, Gio Mar shared his need for his special person for the holidays, on “Holiday Time“, Jay YGT sought to rekindle some lost love for the season, while Rizk was in a festive mood as he parties away on “Jolly Dolly“.

In a video directed by Ruppi for Now Or Never, it’s a celebration in Masicka’s “Trophies”. The video finds him in the Studio putting together his song while recognizing his recent achievements. The video later moves to him delivering some of his plaques to his Grandmother, and highlighting “Lil Sicka” who has ambitions for success like him. The “Lil Sicka not only symbolizes the Deejay’s sons wanting to follow in his footsteps, but the young fans who look up to him like he did to various Dancehall legends in his childhood days. Masicka followed through on his dreams, and all that has happened for him is a part of his destiny. May the Deejay have many more years, and may his new year be filled with more blessings.

.@DevinDiDakta Shares Harsh Realities In “Truth Hurts”


Dancehall Artist Devin Di Dakta has been one of those Artists who spoke his mind. When he takes podium, he speaks on people and situations that are sure to ruffle feathers. He has engaged in numerous conflicts because of his words, but they didn’t deter him. On his new single “Truth Hurts“, he’s not backing down.

Produced by Qvarismatik, Devin Di Dakta gets harsh and direct in “Truth Hurts”. He addresses the nation, and puts the spotlight on individuals who have contributed to the downfall of society, calling out any and everyone who played their part in the harshest way possible. No one is safe on this track, and Devin’s care meter has gone dry as he steps on corns, toes, necks, and hearts. He speaks on the realities of the world, and exposes many who were supposed to do the right things, and play positive role models. Those who support the individuals mentioned are not spared either, and Devin gets loud on them with no fear. Will “Truth Hurts” cause a rise of more truth music? Only time will tell. Devin Di Dakta’s mind has spoken.

OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas): The MerryMen – Drink A Rum (1974)


It’s December, and that means it’s Christmas time! No matter what has been happening in the year, we all look forward to this holiday season. With the holidays come time off for the schoolers, and for the older crowd it’s party time in every way, or an extra payday. For today’s Oldies Sunday selection, we head over to Barbados, who just celebrated their Independence Day, to check out The Merrymen’s version of, “Drink A Rum“.

Produced by The Merrymen for Merry Disc and released in 1974, “Drink A Rum” is a cover version of Trini Calypso legend Lord Kitchener’s 1959 track of the same name. The Merrymen group, which is consisted of 5 members, all performed the track, blending harmonies and instruments for a song that celebrated the drinking part of the holiday season. Rum in various forms are consumed, and they are sure to bring the joy, warmth into the chilly time, and “kick” into the joyous occasions. While the original “Drink A Rum” was a popular Calypso song, their version did well in Barbados, throughout the Caribbean, and other parts of the world, and became a song that enjoyed radio airplay around the Christmas season. The track was released on their 1988 Christmas album, “Caribbean Christmas Party“. The group have been enjoying a considerable amount of fame, and they performed the song on the road.

Stay tuned for another Christmas classic on “Oldies Sunday”!
