.@KesTheBand Delivers A “Masterpiece” On The “Hill & Gully Riddim”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully” agenda grows, and Di Genius has even more up his sleeve in the coming days. From the hills and gullies, to the city streets, the Women are everywhere, and their beauty continues to strike many. Trini star Kes finds himself wherever the Women are, and he admires them like works of Art. You can say, “Masterpiece“.

Kes gives the “Hill & Gully Riddim” some extra spice with the release of, “Masterpiece”. A Woman’s beauty is the reason for many songs, and this new single is no different. With a music video directed by Shane Creative, Kes finds himself in the thick of things, with his eyes wandering at all the beauty he sees. We also see some of the beauties in action during the recent Jamaica Carnival event, and the footage makes for some great additions. Di Genius teased that Aidonia will be joining the compilation, and we hope it’s this week for the official premiere. She pretty like the Carnival costumes!

Nigy Boy’s “Wah Mi Money” Is Next Up On The “Hill & Gully Riddim”

Posted on by swadedavillain

For today’s entry, you’ll be taken back to those moments of your childhood when the Sunday evening programming on TVJ (or JBC) featured very familiar sounds. The “Hill & Gully” agenda continues, even on a Sunday, and Di Genius continues to grow the monster of a Riddim. Yesterday Skippa stepped out with his single, and today we finally get Nigy Boy. Check out, “Wah Mi Money“.

In “Wah Mi Money”, Nigy Boy states clearly that nothing is free, and it’s a shared experience in his world of gift giving. The “Blind Casanova” is aware that the ladies may want something from him, and his love for the ladies ensures that they get it. Just remember, he’s not a claffy, and he wants a return on the supposed investment. The accompanying music video was directed by Rizzy for Now Or Never, and Nigy shows off a few dance moves in between getting close to a few beautiful Women throughout. The visual may not be as jam packed as the locally shot ones, but Nigy’s single still reigns throughout. Who’s next on the “Hill & Gully Riddim“? Stay tuned as some more heavy hitters are on the way.

Skippa Joins The “Hill & Gully Riddim” With “Service”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully” agenda continues, and Di Genius is busy cooking up new selections. Whether it’s daytime, or “Nighttime“, Skippa will appear with something new for the people. He’s next up on the “Hill & Gully Riddim“, joining Govana, Elephant Man, Masicka, and Valiant who have shared their official releases. Today, we get, “Service“.

With a video directed by Ruppi for Now Or Never, Skippa finds himself down by the river, and later at the dance in the video for, “Service”. Tapping into fond memories on the countryside, Skippa could be seen doing some fishing, and at the same time admiring some lovely Women who show off their dancing, and washing skills. Things get more fun when Skippa shows up at the dance, and more people get to dancing, and having a grand time. This new video calls for some whites with ice, a Kangol or Fedora, and some slacks with the Clarks. The old school styling throughout fits well with the new Riddim, and we look forward to more releases. While there have been a few who complained about the Riddim this week, we’re just looking forward to this being another cultural moment, and start a new wave like the “WYFL Riddim“. Never heard a Trap Dancehall Artist on an old school Riddim? Tune in.

Govana Takes On The “Hill & Gully Riddim” With “Itsy Bitsy” For The Fun-Loving Women

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully Riddim” has become a monster! With Di Genius giving a number of singles the green light, there have been a slew of upcoming and established Artists creating their own music to the Riddim in hopes of gaining an official authorization. Valiant had his turn with “Woii“, and now Govana enters the chat with, “Itsy Bitsy“.

Govana has a thing for the Women who possess certain qualities, and know how to have fun in, “Itsy Bitsy”. The track borrows from “Day-O“, which was made famous by the late Harry Belafonte, and “Fat Beef” by The Tellers, and the “Strikeforce Boss” delivers slick lyrics throughout for the ladies who live on the “grippy” side of life. With a video directed by Ruppi for Now Or Never, we get a colourful visual filled with unique fashion (provided by Shampagnex for Seora Clothing), the Jamaican flag, and nuff vibes that you’ve come to know and love. Di Genius has his hands full with the “Hill & Gully Riddim”, and with Ayetian, Busy Signal, and Nigy Boy on the way, things are going to get even more interesting.

Valiant Makes The Women Say “Woii” On The “Hill & Gully Riddim”

Posted on by swadedavillain

The “Hill & Gully” agenda continues. Di Genius struck gold when he made this Riddim, and we are tapping into not only Dancehall culture, but even more of our Jamaican culture and heritage. The Producer unleashed his Riddim for more Artists to get busy with, but today, Valiant is next up to bat. Yesterday Elephant Man dropped “Hold Him Gyal“, now Valiant drops “Woii“.

Directed by Zise x Top Shootah, Valiant brings the Women down to Emmanuel Road in the video for, “Woii”. As previously mentioned, Vali shares inspiration from the Folk Song “Dung A Emmanuel Road“, and the video brings us to the Market, with a healthy sprinkling of Jonkunnu and Kumina throughout. The “Hill & Gully Riddim” has been a part of the conversation since the preview, and we look forward to what’s next (Maybe Ayetian?). Galang gyal!

Elephant Man Brings The Energy To “Hill & Gully” With “Hold Him Gyal”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Over the weekend, the legendary Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor premiered the first installment in his new “Hill & Gully Riddim” called, “Slip & Slide” by Masicka. The Riddim taps into Jamaica’s Folk Music and Mento culture, paying homage, while making something new at the same time. While we knew “Slip & Slide” was going to do some damage, we anticipated for Dancehall Icon Elephant Man, who hinted that he was working with Di Genius. Today, we get the premiere of, “Hold Him Gyal“.

Directed by King Simeon Di Great, Elephant Man takes it to the farmland in the video for, “Hold Him Gyal”. From Donkey riding, to overalls, to tending to the crops, we’re taken back to simpler times, but with that modern vibes, and the Women putting on their best moves, all powered by the “Energy God” and Di Genius. “Hold Him Gyal” shares inspiration from the popular Folk Song, “Hold Him Joe“, and it is fitting with the concept of the Riddim. We even got some duppy, Jonkunnu, and our traditional Plaid in the mix! The “Hill & Gully Riddim” is growing in presence, and with Valiant and Ayetian onboard, this compilation is gonna be another one for the books, and promote more of our rich culture. Ele is as busy as ever thanks to consistent bookings, and if you’re in Atlanta this May, you can catch him on the ReggaeFest Tour. Poco Man Skank to this one.
