.@LilaIkeJa Remixes A “Romantic” Classic With Masicka


How many of you grew up in the Caribbean in the 90s? Do you remember the days of being on the landline for hours conversing with your love interest? For the 2000s there were “Free Nights” and “Free Texts“, but being on the home phone was something different, until the phone bill came. While we’re here, Recording Artist Lila Ike has cooked up something for us to enjoy. She takes us back with something “Romantic“.

Produced by Juls and Dunw3ll and featuring Masicka, Lila Ike takes us back to the 90s with the single, “Romantic”. Sampling Lady Patra’s 1993 classic “Romantic Call“, Lila gives us some new with respect to a classic that even Dancehall Royalty co-signed. The single has us reminiscing about simpler times when you had a crush on someone, and when you get the digits, you’re conjuring lyrics to win over that person (sometimes participating in a “3-Way” phone call to seal the deal). In the Shane Creative-directed video, we get retro fashion, Lila’s signature energy, Masicka’s vibes and nostalgia throughout. Recently, Lila Ike announced that she will be releasing her new album, “Treasure Self Love” in August, and with her track record of infectious singles, we know this project will be a hit. Time to dust off the landline.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Prince Oret – Ghetto Youth (1989)


In life, there are many ups and downs. Some succumb to the downs, while others find ways to overcome them to live positive lives. Today’s Oldies Sunday selection highlights an Artist who like many, overcame negative circumstances, and lived a positive life from thereon. His name is Prince Oret, and we look back at his single, “Ghetto Youth“.

Produced by Little John on the “Give Me The Right Riddim” for the Romantic Label in 1989, Prince Oret reflects on his challenges, and sharing his message of overcoming them in “Ghetto Youth”. A victim of homelessness in his younger years, Oret turned his circumstance into song at the age of 14, with lyrics sharing his hardships, encouraging listeners to not be discouraged, and make efforts to have a positive impact on their lives moving forward. “Ghetto Youth” gave Prince Oret some recognition when released, and while it didn’t make him a huge Artist at the time, the song received some love over the years and made him a name to know locally and overseas.

Since the release of “Ghetto Youth”, Prince Oret released more singles over the years, and made positive strides in his life. He found success as a Producer, owning his own Record Label Godfather Records, dabbled in Real Estate overseas, and made sure never to experience any of the hardships he faced in his younger years again. “Ghetto Youth” is a song of turning a negative into a positive, and is still played around the world.

Thank You Prince Oret For This Song!
