Padrino covers Gregory Isaacs' "Stranger In Town" on 13thStreetPromotions.com

Padrino Channels “The Cool Ruler” Gregory Isaacs On New Cover Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

Bahamian born Recording Artist/Producer Padrino may be a modern Artist, but he has the soul of an OG. While he grew up listening to some of the greats in R&B, Soul, Reggae, and Dancehall, he took inspiration from them to give his music a different sound and feel. An example of that was his recently released “Right Here”, which taps into US R&B group SWV’s “Right Here” from 1992. Expanding his Artistry, he looks to tap into more classics, including the likes of the late Jamaican Icon Gregory Isaacs for his latest single.

Covering Gregory Isaacs’ 1982 hit “Stranger In Town”, Padrino gives us “The 2021 Cool Ruler” as he steps out channeling the late Lovers Rock crooner. Padrino gives us his signature smooth delivery, and does justice to the classic song. Gregory Isaacs released “Stranger In Town” in 1982, and it was featured on his classic album, “Night Nurse”, which was released through Isaacs’ African Museum label along with US based Mango label, and UK based Island Records. Padrino cites Gregory Isaacs as one of his Idols growing up, and it was only right that he paid tribute to him by covering his music. In addition to the “Stranger In Town” single, a Music Video directed by Brucie Bruce and Jason Bevans has been released.

.@BugleAn9ted & Jahmiel Stay “Connected” With Loved Ones On New Single

Posted on by swadedavillain

Reggae/Dancehall Artist Bugle usually has a few tricks up his sleeve when it comes to his music releases, and he knows when it’s the right time to strike. Ahead of the release of his “Toxicity” album, Bugle changes the tone with the album’s latest single, “Connected”.

Produced by Juke Boxx Productions, the single finds Bugle collaborating with Reggae/Dancehall Artist Jahmiel. Together, they speak about staying connected with loved ones, and no matter the distance and circumstance, the love they possess for that special person remains as solid and as intact as ever. The song comes at a time when the global pandemic has forced many relationships to become distant, but it also tests how strong of a bond they have. Love will find a way through many situations. “Connected” is just one of the many collaborations on Bugle’s “Toxicity” album, and follows up the previous released “Prenup”, “Experience” with Nation Boss, “Toxicity”, and “My Life”. Bugle and Jahmiel have collaborated numerous times before, their previous effort, “Sign Of The Times”, was released in 2020.

Bugle’s “Toxicity” album is set to be released on October 22 through his A9nted Entertainment, and Evidence Music, and is now available for pre-save. Check out the Lyric Video below, and share with a friend. Show us some love/follow us on Twitter and Instagram at @13thStreetPromo.

Kyoka - "Hurt People" for 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Dancehall #Kyoka

.@Kyoka_Donn Prays For Better Days On “Hurt People”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Life is filled with ups and downs, and our experiences shape how we conduct ourselves and journey through life. Some may have had beautiful moments for most of their lives, while others have experienced pain and hardships. Upcoming Artist Kyoka has experienced a lot in her lifetime, and she speaks on some of them in her debut single, “Hurt People“.

Featuring production by Zimi Ent., Kyoka gives us lyrics we can all relate to. We get hurt, especially by people we love and care about, but that hurt may linger and cause us to hurt others, and it moves on to others and creates cycles. In Kyoka’s eyes, people are fake, and are only here to use and abuse so she is very cautious of who shares her energy with. Many of us are broken one way or another, but is there a fix? May we pray for better days. Kyoka takes our thoughts and channels them well in her song, and accompanying it is a well shot music video directed by Ruption of RD Studios. Kyoka comes out strong for her debut, and we believe she’ll be around for a long time.

Koffee - West Indies for 13thStreetPromotions.com #Jamaica #Dancehall #Koffee

.@OriginalKoffee Returns To Party In The “West Indies”.

Posted on by swadedavillain

The last time we heard Recording Artist Koffee, she wanted to get into some “Lockdown” loving. Sadly, since the advent of the Covid 19 pandemic, our lives have experienced a series of lockdowns, but not of the loving kind. Some have said that the song jinxed us, but we’re still here dodging Covid, and trying to live our lives. Over a year since Koffee’s last single, she returns with her new single, “West Indies“.

Produced by iotosh, Koffee expresses her desire to enjoy her life in the great West Indies. She wants to have fun, she wants to party, and she wants to be around the people she loves. We feel the same way too, and for some of us, we have to live vicariously through those who are enjoying fully vaccinated lives without lockdowns, restrictions, and dangers thanks to the Coronavirus. Accompanying the single is a music video directed by Meji Alabi, Koffee, and JM Films that promotes family, friends, fun, and that amazing Island life. We’re treated to cameos from some very familiar faces as well, and the video has us missing all the “outside” has to offer. Koffee is back on the scene to run the place!
