.@JadaKingdom Samples A Sizzla Classic For “Those Days”

Posted on by swadedavillain

January is a month for new music, and a few highly-anticipated ones have been given the green light. Last year, Dancehall Artist Jada Kingdom previewed a single called, “Those Days“. The opening vocals instantly took listeners back in time as Reggae/Dancehall Icon Sizzla Kalonji’s 2002 classic “Just One Of Those Days” was the featured sample, drumming up a lot of requests for its release. The wait is over as Jada finally unleashed the tune.

Produced by Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor and released through Money Well Spent, Jada Kingdom shares some of her down times on “Those Days”. She asserts her value, emphasizing her need to take care of herself and people who matter the most to her. Her days may not always be the best, she holds the faith, keeps an eye on fleeting people in her life, and move forward as stress free as possible. The sampled “Just One Of Those Days” by Sizzla was produced by the late “Bobby Digital” Dixon, and is one of Kalonji’s biggest hits to date having successfully crossed over on the International market in the early 2000s. We believe there’s a remixed version of “Those Days” featuring fresh vocals from Sizzla, but we’ll have to wait and see if that will materialize. Jada Kingdom has hinted that she’s working on an album and more music with “Di Genius”, we just have to stay tuned to see what’s next. Just one of those days…

Nigy Boy Releases Highly-Anticipated Single, “Continent”

Posted on by swadedavillain

He has been called the new Jamaican Ray Charles, the new Jamaican Stevie Wonder, and Dexta Daps’ brother (lol), but he’s known to everyone else as Nigy Boy with the golden voice. He emerged on the entertainment scene years ago with his captivating vocals and made his official debut in 2021, but many were wondering why he wasn’t a bigger name. That is all to change this year as he steps out with what could be his breakout hit, the highly-anticipated “Continent“.

Produced by Rvssian on the popular “Dutty Money Riddim“, Nigy Boy speaks on being global Gyalis on “Continent”. With lyrics about his love for the ladies all over the world, he lets them know that he has enough for all of them as “sharing is caring“. He may not have the gift of sight, but when it comes to the lovely ladies, we can see his vision is 20/20. Accompanying the single, is a music video directed by Rizzy for Now Or Never, and it finds Nigy in various rooms including a classroom getting close with the ladies. Nigy Boy is the latest Artist to receive authorization by Rvssian to voice on the “Dutty Money Riddim” after going viral with his lyrics over the beat. With his name being a part of the conversation, we can expect even more from him this year.

Dancehall Artist Intence starts off his year on a positive note with the release of the video for the single, “Year Of Gear“.

Directed by KD Visualz, Intence gives a helping hand to some people in the video for “Year Of Gear”. While he has shared a few “New Year” songs over time, the video finds him with a giving heart as he is seen giving dollars to those in need.

Intence is gearing up to release his album, “Voyage” later this month, and is available for pre-order.

OLDIES SUNDAY: The Paragons – Wear You To The Ball (1967)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s New Year’s Eve, and many are out and about, preparing to ring in 2024. Some will be staying home, some will be going to Night Church, and others will be partying it up. For today’s final Oldies Sunday of 2023, we highlight a classic that has found its way in sets of many DJs at the NYE party. We check out The Paragons’ “Wear You To The Ball“.

Produced by Duke Reid and backed by Tommy McCook & The Supersonics, The Paragons’ “Wear You To The Ball” was released in 1967 through the Treasure Isle label. The single was a blend of great harmonies and powerful Instrumentation as the Singers Bob Andy, John Holt, Howard Barrett, and Garth “Tyrone” Evans sang about taking their lady to the Ball. Ballroom events usually bring out the stars, the song suggests that the lucky lady will be a standout all night. “Wear You To The Ball” quickly became a hit for the quartet, and is recognized as one of their most successful ones. The single was covered by the likes of UB40, Horace Andy, Johnny Clarke, and sampled by Anthony Malvo.

As 2023 comes to an end in a few hours, we hope 2024 brings more good than bad. Many of us faced some of our worst times this year, may the new year bring something positive. Here’s to more wins.

Thanks for being a part 13th Street Promotions in 2023.
