Abdul Wahab Lafta/UK Apache Deejays On @IslamChannel’s Living The Life (Throwback)

Posted on September 22, 2016 by swadedavillain

Reggae Music has done some amazing things worldwide. From turning frowns upside down, to building lifelong relationships/friendships, to influencing many sub genres, it’s incredible how all this came from the small Caribbean Island called Jamaica. Today, we go back a couple years to an Interview with the Ragga Jungle Artist formerly known as UK Apache, Abdul Wahab Lafta. Firstly, Ragga Jungle is a genre of music that was popular in the 1990s UK which was pioneered by Michael West (Rebel MC, Congo Natty), and was a fusion of Reggae, Dub, Old School Jungle and Dancehall.

Being interviewed on “Living The Life“, a Programme found on the Islam Channel in the UK, Abdul spoke on renewing his Islamic faith, his popularity in the 90s as he had hit singles including “Original Nuttah” with Shy-FX, coming back with new music including his new single “Assalamualaikum“, performing at the 1EID Festival, and closing the show with a live performance of “Assalamualaikum“. Many thanks to Videographer Tyrone Simms who contributed to this post. Check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

@KyngTaj Faces A Dilemma With @ShxneSavage_ & @Asha_Green In “Don’t Answer The Phone”

Posted on September 19, 2016 by swadedavillain

Comedians Kyng Taj and Shane Savage are back at it again in a brand new skit. When it comes to your phone, don’t leave it around Shane as he’ll put you in hot water. In “Don’t Answer The Phone“, Taj has been playing hide and seek with a young lady (played by UK based Vlogger Ashalishous) by refusing to answer his phone when she calls. Shane on the other hand, made matters worse when he was given possession of Taj’s phone and was instructed not to answer it as Asha may be on the receiving end. Couple things to note, Taj has a history of being physically abused by women, and Asha has a temper. What trouble Shane will cause? What will happen to Taj? Watch the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
