Vybz Kartel Celebrates 10 Years Of “Viking” & Birthday With “Str8 Vybz” Visual

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today, January 7, is a big day in Dancehall as Vybz Kartel celebrates his 49th birthday. The Deejay enjoys his first birthday as a free Man in over 13 years, and has already made it one of his best birthdays. Come January 13, Vybz will celebrate the 10 year anniversary of his album, “Viking (Vybz Is King)” with a special version. The anniversary album will feature new songs, and one of them will be, “Str8 Vybz“.

Produced by TJ Records/Adidjahiem Records, “Str8 Vybz” finds Vybz Kartel not only enjoying the nightlife, but the release of his “Str8 Vybz” Liquor line. Launched in late 2024, “Str8 Vybz Rum” has already made dents in the Caribbean, and other parts of the world. The “Str8 Vybz” track takes us back to the late 2000s and early 2010s when Kartel had a song for every party. The visual, directed by Shane Creative, comes off like a longform Commercial for the Liquor brand, with versions of “Str8 Vybz Rum” being consumed by not only the Deejay, but fellow Entertainers, and partygoers. The “Gaza Boss” kicked off 2025 with his much talked about “Freedom Street” Concert, and is gearing up for even more in the coming weeks. Drink up to this one, and drink responsibly.

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

Posted on by swadedavillain

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”!

Gargamel Looks To Bring Out The “Rum Head” This Vincy Mas

Posted on by swadedavillain

The Carnival season is still in full effect, and the Caribbean has many events lined up in different Islands for you to be a part of, and enjoy to the fullest. St. Vincent & The Grenadines is gearing up for another memorable “Vincy Mas“, and Soca Artist Gargamel is ready for the vibes. He gets things jumping with, “Rum Head“.

Produced by Strike Mode Music and Boss Raw Records on the “Roll Start Riddim“, Gargamel is calling out all the drinkers in the Mas for “Rum Head”. When the Rum hits you in the Road March, the vibe intensifies, and Gargamel is a proud supporter of that. Whether your Rum of choice is Sunset, Wray & Nephew, Mount Gay, Angostura, Tortuga, or Clark’s Court, there’s nothing like a bit ah Rum to keep the energy up. Speaking of energy, the accompanying Music Video directed by Boss Raw Media finds Gargamel and his friends using the Rum as a part of their work at the Garage. Fixing cars can be stressful, but add some spirits in the mix, and the work gets done in no time. Ready for Vincy Mas?

Since breaking out a couple years ago, he has been on a run that earned him millions of Youtube views, heavy rotation on Radio, online, and at your favourite events, continuous bookings locally and Internationally, and success that gets better every time.

Recently, Worthy Park Estate, the company behind the popular Rum-Bar brand and Rum-Bar Rum, secured 450 in a multimillion-dollar endorsement deal. The brand has been busy recruiting some big names over time, and the high profile Artist was the right pick for their latest acquisition. Possessing the charisma, personality, and looks along with a heavy presence on the scene, Rum-Bar believed in 450’s marketability, and they look forward to making him a part of many projects in the coming months. He was introduced along with fellow Dancehall Artist/Ambassador Vanessa Bling in the just-released “Vibes Of Jamaica” campaign, and the feedback so far has been positive. 450 is gearing up to release more music in the coming weeks, and will be performing at a stage near you.

Accompanied by shades, rum and the Fugees’ “Ready Or Not” beat, Dreggae and K Don started off their summer with a set of freestyles. Here they show you that Jamaicans have talent and how they handle business off the stage. Not a bad effort from the duo, I hope there will be more of this with even more artists before the season ends. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

OLDIES SUNDAY: @PuppaChezidek – Leave The Trees (2006)

Posted on by swadedavillain

In recognition of yesterday’s “420” celebrations, today I feature a song from Reggae artist Chezidek. Titled “Leave The Trees” and produced by Hugh “Bunny Dan” Miller for Our Promotions in 2006, Chezidek warns us about the effects of drugs and alcohol while proclaiming that Marijuana is beneficial to the people and should not be discarded by the law enforcement as burning it harms the environment. He also sings about the positive effects of Marijuana where it is medicine and can be made into clothing and proceeds from selling it could support families.
