.@Runkusinno Extends His Catalogue With “SUPERNOVA” Album

Posted on by swadedavillain

Recording Artist Runkus has been brewing up something good for a while, and he’s ready for the world to indulge in it. Known for his unorthodox wordplay and a flow that always stands out, and his consistency in song creating has resulted in people moving their feet, and getting their knowledge up. He takes his music to a higher level with the new “SUPERNOVA” album.

Featuring 13 tracks, Runkus aligns with Bahamian Conceptual Artist, Tavares Strachan for the new “SUPERNOVA” album. A follow up to the well-received “IN:SIDE” and “OUT:SIDE” albums, Runkus returns with more thought-provoking content, and extends his catalogue that has been lauded by many. Stratchan’s involvement in the album comes in the form of its cover titled, “A Map of the Crown (Fulani Red)“, which was inspired by Eve, the first Woman of creation.

Production on “SUPERNOVA” features production from the likes of Prodj, RiddimBoss, Chopstix, KaleX, A Guy Called Purple, and Runkus himself, while Sean Paul, and vocals from the late Peter Tosh grace a couple tracks. The Lyricist returns to his arena with something powerful.

Posted on by swadedavillain

RajahWild – Trophy Front

(DIRECTED BY RUPPI FOR NOW OR NEVER)

RajahWild "Trophy Front" on 13thStreetPromotions.com

Remember growing up on Disney cartoons? Well, for Rajahwild’s “Trophy Front“, the timeless “The Beauty & The Beast” was the inspiration for his Music Video. While members of the public interpreted this as Rajahwild endorsing Satan with his makeup, others saw through the controversial takes, and saw a beautiful Woman being captivated by the beastly character. Ruppi of Now Or Never handled the direction for this one.

King Cruff x Runkus "Fallback" on 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Canada #Dancehall #DancehallPop #MusicVideo #13thStreetPromotions #KingCruff #Runkus #KitWeyman #Fallback #BobMarleyBeach #Caribbean

.@KingCruff Takes His Music To New Levels With @RunkusInno-Featured, “FallBack”

Posted on by swadedavillain

2023 was the warmup for King Cruff, and 2024 will be the championship round! After scoring big with the StoneBwoy and Jag.Huligan-featured “SHEDOENEED“, Cruff has become quite the commodity in the months that followed. From Interviews to live performances, things have climbed a few levels in the months that followed. The Tuff Gong Collective/UMusic signee is charged up, so prepare to be thrilled with the release of, “Fallback“.

Teaming up with Recording Artist Runkus, King Cruff gives us “Heartbreak Dancehall” on “Fallback”. They deal with Women who love them like the seasons, and they deal with her accordingly. Over smooth production by Banx & Ranx, Runkus handles hook duties in his signature way while Cruff shares the saga. Great combination aside, the track is accompanied by music video directed by Kit Weyman, and it gives us the feeling of a Horror movie (Think Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”, but shot in Jamaica). The video not only features the Artists, but the beautiful leading ladies Roginea Dixon, Annaje, and Smiles Buchanan, and parts of Jamaica including the famous Bob Marley Beach (Which has been included in a series of topics and petitions where it needs to be protected, and allowed free public access). “Fallback” is expected to become one of the big hits for the year, and we expect it to become one that is widely loved on Social Media. If you still aren’t familiar with King Cruff, look here to get started.
