Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s a new week, and some of us are having a hard time adjusting for the busy days. For some of us, we never wanted the weekend to end, but life doesn’t work like that. Fortunately, there is always something or someone who is there to keep you going. For Kes, we learn about, “Cocoa Tea“.

Produced by Tano, Kes and the band come through with a dedication to that Woman who is definitely “Ms. Pick Me Up” in “Cocoa Tea”. When it comes to your person, nothing can ruin your day when they’re in it. For the sunny days, for the rainy ones, you two become a bubbling pot of fun, love, and lasting memories. Over some smooth production, the song comes at a good time as it’s getting chilly, and we’re gonna need a “live blanket“. Come 2025, Kes will be celebrating a 20 year career, and make it a moment at the IZWE 25 concert at the Queen’s Park Savannah in Trinidad. Play the new tune for your lover.

We Look At Songs That Sampled Byron Lee In Our Latest Playlist

Posted on by swadedavillain

Before the month is over, we want to show respect to an Architect in Jamaican Music. a Man who created a wave in the early years of Ska Music, and made his name prominent in other genres, that soon made him an inspiration, and Icon. His name is Byron Lee, and if there was a “National Heroes Of Jamaican Music” category, he would’ve been on the list. The late Musician/Producer/Entrepreneur took the music to new territories, and has received numerous accolades for his accomplishments. His Dynamics Sounds Studio was one of the best in the Caribbean, he produced classics in multiple genres, and he gave us “Jamaica Carnival“, popularizing Soca Music in Jamaica, making it accessible for everyone. His band, The Dragonaires, became the standard for many bands in the Caribbean, and have been in movies, on the Radio, and at an event near you. Byron Lee has done so much for Jamaican Music, but today we’re highlighting some of the music that sampled the work of Mr. Lee in our latest Playlist.

While the list is not long, we invite you to tune in to some of the hits that Byron Lee produced over the years, and some of the tracks that used his sound to make their own hits. From Ska, to Dancehall, to Hip Hop, Lee’s DNA could be found in some of your faves. Those who are not familiar, can use this Playlist as a start into discovering more from the late Icon. Long live Byron Lee!

Ozarie Calls Out The Chatterboxes In “Shut Up”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Vincy Mas is really right around the corner, and if you haven’t been preparing, then you better make something happen before it’s too late. With new music dropping frequently, we expect patrons to give their all on the road this season. With that said, Vincy Artist Ozarie Matthews drops a new single called, “Shut Up“.

Produced by Karbon Jamz on the “Road Tribute Riddim” and released through Hunttaflow Production, Ozarie calls out the chatterboxes, the tattletales, and the mouth a massy types in “Shut Up”. He shares that he has no tolerance for those who like to gossip and spread news, and he simply wants them to stay far from him, and be quiet. No matter what’s the discussion, if it’s no progressive, he has no time for it. Over production that’s influenced by the traditional Soca sound, we can expect the people to dance away to “Shut Up”, while avoiding the gossip. Ready for Vincy Mas?
