Over a week ago, Jamaican Social Media was on fire. Dancehall Artist Blak Ryno shared a song that for the currently-trending “Dutty Money Riddim“, with the intention of getting it authourized by Producer Rvssian. Ryno, who already had a classic on the original “Go-Go Club Riddim“, argued online that he should secure another hit on the revamped version of the beat. Things started to go left, and after a few series of jokes about his hair (he was flat ironing it during his argument), something beautiful happened. After a few jokes comparing Ryno to a Rockstar emerged, DJs and fans started seeing Ryno in another light. Out of the madness emerged, #RockNRyno, a series of remixes that placed the Deejay’s vocals over popular Rock, Soft Rock, and Alternative Instrumentals. What started as a joke turned into a boost into Ryno’s music career, and the anticipation of an actual Rock song from the Deejay. After all that talking, the track is finally here, and it’s called, “Star Up In The Sky“.
Produced by Silverbird Records/Twelve 9 Records/Get Em Franco, Blak Ryno shared his Rock side on “Star Up In The Sky”. With ZJ Sparks, BloodlineFranco, and Chambah at the helm, we get Ryno reflecting on his struggles over the years, sharing his ambitions and current challenges, and encouraging listeners to win and go for what’s theirs in order to overcome poverty. Like a star in the sky, he will shine throughout his mission. The first Rock offering from Ryno promises to open up opportunities for more releases, and he is currently finalizing his EP for a release later this year. Tackle poverty the #RockNRyno way.

Today’s new music comes from a Jamaican One Man Band, Scotty + The DreamKillers. Titled “Keep It Rocking” and features a production from JLA, this features a great Michael Jackson sample (Rock With You) while Scotty raps about chasing his dreams, never slowing down on his work, pushing on despite challenges and keeping it rocking. A great effort here and being a Michael Jackson fan I love this production. For clarification, Scotty + The DreamKillers is really a One Man Band where “Scotty” is the rapper and “JLA” is the producer. With a mix of Hip Hop, Rock, Dub, and Reggae, look out for more work from the Band, I know I will. Check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
