Buss A “One Wine” For @IAmKaLyra @IAmShaddoh @DBurnzMusic & @Brush1Chromatic’s New Single!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Long time we nuh have no nice time, and with the reopening of “outside” a.k.a. Jamaica’s Entertainment Sector, it’s time to have (safe) fun again! While many have been vocal about the reopening, many Artists are looking forward to reconnect with the fans, and get back on platforms that they have been away from. One Artist who is ready to get things going in upcoming Recording Artist/Actress/Choreographer Kalyra. She celebrates with the release of her new single, “One Wine“!

Produced by Dale Virgo and Elisha Ellis, “One Wine” is the energetic and feel-good combination of Kalyra, DBurnz, Shaddoh Blackz, and Brush1Chromatic. The Artists are ready to take over your speakers with this one, and we expect the track to be in regular rotation in the coming weeks. Inspired by the then impending reopening of the Entertainment Sector, a song was needed with Kalyra in mind that celebrated the reopening. The unique sounds of Elisha Eliis and Dale Virgo, along with the recruitment of Brush1, DBurnz, and Shaddoh who all brought great energy and lyrics made the collaboration an easy task. “One Wine” is expected to connect with everyone from young to old to move waistlines, and have fun throughout the year and beyond! Be on the look out for a Music Video for the single.

Posted on by swadedavillain

With “Women’s History Month” coming to a close, we’re still celebrating the Women who continue to make history everyday. While we recognize Women in Music and Entertainment, we show love to the everyday Woman. To amplify this, legendary Recording Artist Nadine Sutherland steps to the Mic with her new single, “Queen“.

Nadine Sutherland took on the Producer role for her “Queen” single, and on the track, she makes a dedication to every Queen in the world. She reminds them that they are very important, and she takes the time to fix their Crowns and show them all the love. She gave her strong lyrics a visual thanks to a Ryan Bailey directed/Gracian Christie edited music video. Throughout the video, Nadine highlights some very important Women including her Mother, a Mother and child, and a young lady who overcame her challenges and achieved success. A great song from Nadine Sutherland, and an important one.

OLDIES SUNDAY: @CeliaCruz – Bemba Colora (1966)

Posted on by swadedavillain

This March on Oldies Sunday, we recognize it as Women’s History Month. We salute the many Women who have taken big steps, and left amazing legacies. Today, we head over to Cuba to salute the “Queen Of Salsa” or “La Reina De La Salsa“, and “La Guarachera De Cuba“, Celia Cruz! We look back at her single, “Bemba Colora“.

Originally composed by Jose Claro Fumero, “Bemba Colora” was released in 1966 through Tico Records. The song possessed a strong anti-racist message, a bit of storytelling, and celebrated a proud African heritage as “Bemba Colora” meant “big red lips/red mouth“, which is a distinct feature of many Black people. The song features a heavy dose of percussion and horns, and will have anyone breaking out in dance. “Bemba Colora” was a hit for Celia Cruz, later on becoming one of her signature songs. “Bemba Colora” was featured on Cruz’s 1966 album, “Son con Guaguancó“.

Celia Cruz would become one of the faces of the then growing Latin Music movement overseas, mastering many forms of Afro-Cuban music styles over time. Celia Cruz has inspired generations of Latin Artists, and her presence is still felt to this day. She is still celebrated around the world, with special tributes being presented yearly. “Celia Cruz Day” is celebrated in San Francisco, California on October 25, and she has a few Schools and roads named after her in her honour.

thank you celia cruz!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Dancehall Artist Shenseea is still riding high, and making her name find its place in more parts of the globe. While she’s still getting a substantial buzz from her rather controversial “Lick” single featuring Meg Thee Stallion, ShenYeng is all about getting right for her upcoming debut album, “Alpha“. She takes things up a notch with the new single, “Deserve It“.

Produced by Rvssian, Shenseea is continuing her path of branching out to doing other forms of music. “Deserve It” brings forward a very poppy vibe, and Shenseea finds herself pursuing someone special on the track. The track looks to become a Billboard Pop Charts contender, and we will see over time if her star power will shine brighter than ever. The uptempo vibes here definitely encourages us to dance, and we know her fans are loving every bit of this. What else do you think Shenseea has in store for us on her debut album? Stay tuned!

OLDIES SUNDAY: The Cables – Baby Why (1968)

Posted on by swadedavillain

With “Reggae Month” coming to a close, Reggae is still constant on Oldies Sunday! Last Sunday, we highlighted what’s possibly the first ever Reggae song released called “Nanny Goat” by Larry And Alvin. The thing is, there’s another song that was released in 1968 that was debated to also be the first Reggae song, and it comes from the singing group The Cables called, “Baby Why“.

Produced by “Sir Coxsone” Dodd, the track was released through the Studio One Label in 1968. The Cables combined great vocals and sound to sing about a lover who exited the relationship for another, and they expressed the various emotions and thoughts experienced as a result. “Baby Why” was a slow burner for the group as it was strategically played on various sound systems, building its buzz for months before an official release. The single became a hit for the group, and has been debated along with Larry And Alvin’s “Nanny Goat” and Toots & The Maytals’ “Do The Reggay” to be the first real Reggae song. “Baby Why” was featured on the group’s 1970 debut album, “What Kind Of World“, and was later remixed by Dennis Alcapone and Prince Jazzbo.

The Cables consisted of Singers Keble Drummond, Elbert Stewart, and Vince Stoddart, and they recorded a string of singles for “Sir Coxsone” Dodd’s Studio One in the late 60s before parting ways with label in the 1970s. Since the release of “Baby Why”, the group went on to release many more singles and one more album before going through a series of breakups and reunions over the years.

thank you the cables for this classic!
