It’s been a while since DJ Vee from the YG Sound has dropped any mixes but that all changes tonight. For the hardworking folk who want to kick back and the party animals who are ready for whatever, Vee presents “Dancehall Live & Direct“! For little over an hour we are treated to some of the best in current and older Dancehall tunes from the likes of Vybz Kartel, Jahmiel, Aidonia, Gaza Slim, Mavado, Ding Dong, Alkaline, Demarco and more! Just stepping in from a long day? Then check out the mix below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
It’s no surprise when Artists cover popular singles, but Beniton made Rihanna’s “Work” his own with a unique remix. Dubbed his “Instamix“, Beniton flipped some of Riri’s lyrics and lashed at those who live for mix up, men who fail at loving their women, and lazy people. I can’t lie, this is a pretty dope take on the hit single. First premiered via Instagram and Snapchat, check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
First they started out as the youth of the Dancehall/Reggae culture, now they’re parents with growing kids. It isn’t unusual for the child of an Entertainer to follow in their parent’s footsteps one way or the other as at times they bring a modern take on their parent’s creations, or create their own lane. Some of the most famous off springs include Stephen, Ziggy, and Damian “Junior Gong” Marley (Sons of Bob Marley), Chino and Di Genius (Sons of Freddie McGregor), Junior Tucker (Son of Jimmy Tucker), Morgan Heritage (Children of Denroy Morgan), Tarrus Riley (Son of Jimmy Riley), Queen Ifrica (Daughter of Derrick Morgan), Protoje (Son of Lorna Bennett), Chronixx (Son of Chronicle) and many more. In part 2 of a few part series, I feature more of the new set of kids on the scene whose parents have covered much ground in their respective careers.

The Wutang Clan is for the children, while Five Steez, Inztinkz, Nomad Carlos, and The Sickest Drama who make up “The Council” are for the Hip Hop heads. Today 3/4 of the group hop on the Clan’s “Triumph” Instrumental for a quick freestyle. Here they shed light on fake Rappers, show how sharp they are when it comes to the bars, and how their upcoming projects (Five Steez – Momentum Vol. 3 and The Council’s “Nothing Else Matters“) will separate them from the common folk and will be what you need to hear. I bomb atomically, check out the track below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
