Hey Blogworld! Today’s entry in Oldies Sunday comes from the late Stanley Beckford (1942 -2007) who headlined the groups The Starlites, The Turbines and The Astronauts.

Hey bloggers, today’s my first installment in Oldies Sunday where i’ll show appreciation to a old school song I enjoy and hopefully tell the story behind the song. Today’s entry is from the great Pluto Shervington with a song titled “Ram Goat Liver“. Goat soup or “Mannish Water” as it’s popularly called, is a favourite amongst Jamaicans. Mannish Water can be served at funeral receptions/repast, wakes, parties, and fun days/carnivals. It also makes a very tasty meal at any given time.

“Kingston Be Wise!” …That’s the message being displayed throughout Protoje’s newest single. Protoje explains that his single is “A short story based on the events of May 23rd, 2010, when the Jamaican government deployed its military into Tivoli Gardens in the capital city of Kingston.” Great instrumental, powerful message, only the best from a great singer. Check out the soundcloud below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

Hey blogworld, got a new video for you guys. Now I was unaware that Mya had a song out with deejay Spice, now there’s a video. Titled “Take Him Out” and directed by the legendary Rass Kassa, Mya and Spice sing about their frustrations with the men in their lives. Typical unappreciated lover anthem, and the scenes were pretty decent. Seeing Mya pinning clothes to a line was a bit funny but dancing while being surrounded by filled garbage bags and a garbage truck? Weird. Anyway by the looks of it this was shot in Jamaica and that’s a good thing. Click on the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
