Vybz Kartel Celebrates 10 Years Of “Viking” & Birthday With “Str8 Vybz” Visual

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today, January 7, is a big day in Dancehall as Vybz Kartel celebrates his 49th birthday. The Deejay enjoys his first birthday as a free Man in over 13 years, and has already made it one of his best birthdays. Come January 13, Vybz will celebrate the 10 year anniversary of his album, “Viking (Vybz Is King)” with a special version. The anniversary album will feature new songs, and one of them will be, “Str8 Vybz“.

Produced by TJ Records/Adidjahiem Records, “Str8 Vybz” finds Vybz Kartel not only enjoying the nightlife, but the release of his “Str8 Vybz” Liquor line. Launched in late 2024, “Str8 Vybz Rum” has already made dents in the Caribbean, and other parts of the world. The “Str8 Vybz” track takes us back to the late 2000s and early 2010s when Kartel had a song for every party. The visual, directed by Shane Creative, comes off like a longform Commercial for the Liquor brand, with versions of “Str8 Vybz Rum” being consumed by not only the Deejay, but fellow Entertainers, and partygoers. The “Gaza Boss” kicked off 2025 with his much talked about “Freedom Street” Concert, and is gearing up for even more in the coming weeks. Drink up to this one, and drink responsibly.

Yannick Paul Shares A Life Changing Story On “Kvrtel CD”

Posted on by swadedavillain

For those who know, and those who don’t, Dancehall Artist Vybz Kartel will be launching his highly-anticipated “Freedom Street” Concert next week. With the year he and his fans have been experiencing, 2024 will be ending in a big way. For people like Gospel Artist Yannick Paul, he remembers the days when he would be front and center for the latest single from the Deejay. Life has changed since then, but he wants to share a story about his “Kvrtel CD“.

The story starts off in 2005 where a young Yannick Paul discovers a Vybz Kartel mixtape at a friend’s house. He would then steal it, and the story continues with him enjoying content from, and becoming a fan of a Dancehall Artist who would gradually become one of Jamaica’s top acts. During that time, Yannick was dealing with having a music career of his own, and a life that wasn’t Christlike. He admits that the music made an influence on his life then, and the same can be said for others, but things began to shift for him over the years, and life as a Christian took over, putting the Kartel music and influence on the back burner. He closes off his song with a message to Vybz Kartel, with the hopes that he gives a welcoming ear to it. “Kvrtel CD” is the follow up to “November“, which shares Yannick’s life changing story that happened over 10 years ago. 2025 will find him continuing to spread the word.

Peaches Adaba Has A Love Like Vybz Kartel & “Sidem”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Peaches Adaba is a Dancehall Artist on the rise, and she has been connecting with people through her music, and personality through Social Media content. She has covered a lot of themes in her music, but for her latest, she’s all about love. This love, is not an ordinary one, and she talks about it in, “Sidem“.

Produced by Adaba Entertainment, Peaches Adaba is loving her Man in, “Sidem”. The kind of relationship she has with him, is likened to that of Dancehall Artist Vybz Kartel, and his fiancee, Sidem Ozturk. She reflects on the good times, the not so great ones, and she looks forward to even more adventures, and memories with him. “Kartel & Sidem” take to the streets in the accompanying Music Video, and Peaches even pays tribute to “238“, a number that holds a very important place in Vybz Kartel’s freedom this past Summer, and even recreated the first video of the Deejay as a free man that went viral. Some of us yearn for a love like no other, and Peaches has one that she’ll stand by.

.@DiGenius1 Brings Dancehall Classics To Streaming With “The Recovered Files” Album

Posted on by swadedavillain

The 2000s in Dancehall Music was an era that can never be duplicated. There were local and International crossovers, the ascension of Deejays who went on to become legends, and lots of good vibes and energy. It was in the mid 2000s that the world warmed up to a young Producer by the name of Stephen McGregor. The son of the legendary Freddie McGregor was determined to carve his own path in music, and the determination won. When he got his start, there was no stopping him, and he made hits with everyone. From Mavado, to Vybz Kartel, to Laden, to Agent Sasco, to Nicky B, to his brother Chino McGregor, the world got familiar to the sounds of “Di Genius“. There’s a lot of history in that Big Ship Studio. The years that followed saw a shift in the music Industry as MP3s and CDs soon gave way to Digital Music Streaming, and a number of those Di Genius hits never crossed over. In 2024, after lots of work, Stephen has made it a reality with the release of “The Recovered Files” album.

Featuring 20 classic tracks, Di Genius restored some of our favourites from the 2000s on “The Recovered Files” compilation album. We get music from a Vybz Kartel who was in heading into a new level of prime, a young Aidonia who was venomous on a Riddim, Chino who found his pocket and cruised over his brother’s productions, the rise of the “Gully Gad” Mavado, a young firecracker that was Blak Ryno, and more. Fans will fall in love with the “Darker Shadow Riddim“, recite some Gaza Commandments, reflect on their allegiances to Gaza, Gully, and J.O.P., and enjoy the work of Di Genius over and over on their favourite streaming platform. We believe “The Recovered Files” will be the start of a series of restorations and releases in the coming months, and with Di Genius at the helm, we know it will be a celebration every time. What’s your favourite Riddim from Di Genius?
