PRESS RELEASE: @ListenMiCarib News Signs On For Season Two With @CVMTV

Posted on October 16, 2015 by swadedavillain

The fast-rising digital media content start-up, Listen Mi Caribbean has officially signed on for Season two of ‘Listen Mi News’ on CVM Television. The programme was first aired online in 2013 to rave reviews and found itself by the summer of 2014 as a part of the World Cup Championship coverage on CVM TV. Its high ratings resulted in the network creating a permanent slot for the show on the station. Listen Mi News, in essence is a summary of current affairs or specific news topics delivered in the form of music and visuals. This concept made what many people found to be a mundane way of broadcasting the news, much more interesting and entertaining.

Recording artiste Bay C known for being a member of platinum selling quartet T.O.K. works alongside fellow Listen Mi Caribbean Co-founder and music producer Icon, Reggae singer Chase and Deejay Hodari each week to deliver Listen Mi News. The company has since secured their place in history by producing the first programme of its kind in the Caribbean. Bay C said, “It was a concept that came out of a conversation with a friend on tour in Europe. I loved the challenge of it, the fact that it was never done before in this side of the world and also it allowed me to showcase my skills of making music around any topic. Once I returned to Jamaica I shared the idea with the directors at Listen Mi Caribbean, and the four of us as founding partners fleshed it out”.

As they prepare for Season two on October 16th, 2015, Icon promises to deliver more creative content. He shared, “I want Listen Mi News to be the Voice of the People so we will be visiting several communities and schools to give persons the chance for their voice to be heard”. Bay C added that the reason behind this interactive move is based on the feedback received from children and teenagers alike, sharing that ‘Listen Mi News’ makes the news more “appealing to the younger generation”.

‘Listen Mi News’ premieres on CVM Television on Fridays at 8:55 pm (immediately after News Watch) with repeats on Saturday at 7:00pm, Monday at 10:00pm, Tuesday and Thursday at 1:55pm and Wednesday at 6:55 pm.

PRESS RELEASE: @RasXtr3me Celebrates Rastafarians In New Single

Posted on October 14, 2015 by swadedavillain

Ras Xtr3me is celebrating his belief in the Rastafarian culture with his new single ‘Shaat Locks’ produced by Audiotraxx Productions on the ‘Shaat Lox Riddim’. The single speaks about the authentic levity of Rastafari and speaks to youths who have an interest in the movement. Ras Xtr3me sang, “Shaat Locks no tats no glass chain no Gold watch, Xtr3me roll the Rasta way, Natural bead head wrap” which is a clear indication that Ras Xtr3me is not here for the ‘fake Rastas’.

With strong beliefs, Ras Xtr3me said “I am a cultural Reggae artiste who believes all musicians should travel on a path of truth and righteousness. Our music should be a reflection of positivity and strength”. Reigning from Old Harbour, St Catherine, Ras Xtr3me grew up with the influence of music from veterans such as Flick Wilson, Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, Third World Band, Nina Simone, Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaac, Garnet Silk, and Buju Banton. When asked about his proudest moment he shared “Mutabaruka is one of the radio personalities I admire and to hear him play my single, it was truly appreciated. I hope to influence a positive change through embracing roots and culture among our youths and he basically created the medium for me to do so”.

Ras Xtr3me is set to perform on several stages in Jamaica and is eager to start his promotional trail for the new single. The single can be found on Soundcloud.

PRESS RELEASE: Oska’s Message To The Prime Minister!

Posted on October 12, 2015 by swadedavillain

With many Jamaicans awaiting the announcement for the next general elections, up and coming artiste Oska is speaking out through his new single ‘Please Prime Minister’. The single produced by 10 Star Records acts as a social commentary that pleads to the government to invest more into the music industry in particular Reggae and Dancehall music. He said “When I go to Germany and see the love I get there for my music I am so overwhelmed. I think music is a good thing and it can be a solution to a lot of the problems Jamaica is now facing”.

Oska described in his song the power of positive music and urges government to use it in campaigns to create change. He also expounds on the importance of Jamaicans embracing their musical culture and not be so concerned about the negatives often times affiliated with Dancehall but to encourage further change. In what seems to be a controversial single also has the upcoming artiste being vocal about the drop in the quality of the music produced by top producers and the hope that this will change.

Oska shared “The truth is a lot of producers have been solely concerned with just getting material out to the public because of monetary gain and not so much to create a legacy and to garner international awards and attention. As a young artiste, I would like to see more producers putting out quality music that can help break barriers for all Jamaicans”. The single on the ‘Stop Mash Up Jamaica Riddim’ has been garnering a lot of comments online and has become a strong topic with the present political unrest. The single is featured on recording artiste Marr’s mix tape ‘Rebellution’ and has been receiving air play in Germany, France, Zimbabwe and the UK.

Oska is set to commence his Jamaican media runs in December of this year. ‘Please Prime Minister’ can be heard on Soundcloud and is available for download on iTunes and Amazon.
