“Is It Them, Or Me?” Asks @Skiifalls In @JorjaSmith-Featured Single, “Her World”

Posted on by swadedavillain

When you’re all about someone, and they’re focused on other things, it can be a frustrating experience. St. Vincent and The Grenadines-born/Canada-based Recording Artist Skiifall finds himself in a dilemma in the new single, “Her World“.

Produced by Kenny Beats, who taps into some classic Reggae sounds, “Her World” features an appearance by UK Songbird Jorja Smith. On the track, Skiifall finds himself questioning his lover if she’s about being with him, or is she going with her options in the streets. The situation is a painful one as Skii has been let down by her before, but he believes they make a great union, and he’s not accepting defeat. Jorja plays the lover on the track, and she tries to let him down easy as she wishes to see what else is out there, leaving him behind. Many can relate to this song here, and the scenario is played daily by various characters. Skiifall has been on the scene for a while, and is gearing up to release his new EP, “Lovers Till I’m Gone” later this year. To the lovers out there, guard your heart.

Posted on by swadedavillain

When the holidays come around, many look forward to reuniting with loved ones, and making memories together. On the other side of the coin, there are many who mourn the absence of loved ones. Whether they’re lost through breakups or death, the holidays hit hard for some. For UK Artist Konan of Krept & Konan, not having certain loved ones around is painful. On “Delroy’s Son“, he has a conversation with one very special person.

In a video co-directed by Konan and Don Prod, Konan pulls up to have a conversation with his late Father, Delroy Wilson in “Delroy’s Son”. The video starts with Konan visiting his Father’s community, then sharing some words at memorial service, and during a Therapy session. He expresses how life is without his Father and how much he means to him, but shares that he has found success for himself, gives him his flowers, and assures that he will do in part in continuing the Wilson legacy. For those unfamiliar, Konan is the youngest son of Delroy Wilson, who was Jamaica’s first child star, and a legend in Ska, Reggae, and Rocksteady. Wilson was known for the hits, “Have Some Mercy“, “Better Must Come“, “Cool Operator“, “The Last Thing On My Mind“, and a cover of The Wailers’ “I’m Still Waiting“. “Delroy’s Son” is featured on Krept & Konan’s “Young Kingz 2“, which will be released on February 7, 2025. Long live Delroy Wilson.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Love Joys – All I Can Say (1981)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s a new month, and we’re glad to be here providing music for you to enjoy on “Oldies Sunday“. Since its inception, we’ve highlighted classic singles, guilty pleasures, underrated hits, and allowed our audience to get familiar with music they’ve never heard before. This Sunday is no different as today we feature UK-based Reggae duo Love Joys, and their single, “All I Can Say“.

Produced by Lloyd Barnes a.k.a. Bullwackie for the Wackie’s label and released in 1981, Love Joys were all about making the world a better place in “All I Can Say”. The cousin duo of Sonia Abel and Claudette Brown encouraged listeners to live a better life, call out those who do wrong, and hope and pray that things get better for us all. Over some solid production, the pair deliver conscious messages along with some melodies. “All I Can Say” was featured on their 1981 album, “Reggae Vibes“, and their official 1982 debut album “Lovers Rock (Reggae Style)“. The song became a hit for the duo, and became known in Jamaica, and various parts of the world. It was sampled in 2024 by Texas Rapper BigXThaPlug for his track “Havin Freestye“, which featured Ro$ama and Yung Hood, and produced by Tony Coles. “All I Can Say” was also featured on hit Video Game “Saints Row” through the in-game radio station.

Since the release of “All I Can Say”, not much was heard from Love Joys. The duo was recognized as one of the first all-Female Roots Reggae groups, but they disbanded in the 1980s. In the 2000s, Sonia Abel (now Sonia “Marla” Allen) would create the duo Natti Love Joys with her Husband Anthony “Jatti” Allen. “All I Can Say” is still remembered by fans, and “Saints Row” gamers.
