The Gleaner – 13th Street Promotions

On January 25, 2014, Jamaicans were treated to the staging of “Pay Attention“, a Hip Hop concert series held at Club Indulge (South Beach Cafe). Hosted by The Sickest Drama, performances included The Rush, K John, Five Steez and Kabaka Pyramid. I’ve previously posted about the event but today The Gleaner has released a video of the event and interviewed the performers who spoke about the Hip Hop culture, Pay Attention, and how Jamaican Hip Hop is on the rise. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

Veteran Journalist Ian Boyne was one of the few guests on tonight’s episode on Onstage. Here he spoke about his new book “Ideas Matter: Journey Into The Mind Of A Veteran Journalist“, Dancehall Music and it being a huge influence, Dancehall lyrics, and many more. Great Interview here, lots of debating between the two men. Be sure to get Ian Boyne’s latest work and read his articles in the sunday Gleaner.
