.@KingBeenieMan Gets Them Dancing In “Simma” Visual


It’s been a few weeks since Dancehall Icon Beenie Man released his latest album, “Simma“. The album has gotten its share of positive feedback from fans and peers alike, and it’s on the “For Your Consideration” campaign for a GRAMMY nomination. The singles are making their way to various platforms, and new content are being released including the music video for the title track.

The video finds Beenie Man entering a party where he’s greeted by a number of familiar faces, and he takes the dance floor with his Daughter Desha, and a number of dancers. The Roe Summerz-produced track finds Beenie reflecting on a career that he seen many high points, and he looks to conquer more. He has maintained a career in music for over 40 years, he is one of Dancehall’s kings, and deserves his flowers for his contributions. If you haven’t checked out the “Simma” album yet, I suggest you give it a few listens today. Salute the King.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Reggie Stepper – Drum Pan Sound (1990)


The Soundclash culture is one that many should be celebrating. The world has seen the rise of many sounds, and the derailment of some thanks to the Soundclash events where they pit their best against each other. The Dubplate is a very important tool in a Soundclash, and many of your favourite Artists have recorded tracks to be used in the wars. For our Oldies Sunday selection, we highlight an Artist who has recorded his share of dubplates that have aided many sounds. His name is Reggie Stepper, and his track is “Drum Pan Sound“.

Produced by Steely & Clevie on the “Stalag Riddim” and released through their label in 1990, Reggie Stepper gets into some Soundclash vibes on “Drum Pan Sound”. Throughout the track, he jeers the sounds who aren’t at their best, and there is no tolerance for those who can match up to his team. Stepper throws in his signature style, and it puts the listener in the audience at a Soundclash. “Drum Pan Sound” became a popular track for Stepper, and Selectors would request Dubplate versions for their respective sounds. “Drum Pan Sound” was also sampled over the years on tracks like “Wreck Shop” by Run-D.M.C., “Chief Rocka” by Lords Of The Underground, and recently on Nas’Magic 2” album on the track, “Bokeem Woodbine“.

Since the release of “Drum Pan Sound”, Reggie Stepper continued to release more music, perform in various parts of the world, and fulfilled Dubplate requests for many Selectors and sounds. “Drum Pan Sound” remains one of his more recognized tracks.

Thank You Reggie Stepper For This Track!

.@Skillibeng Gets Animated For “Bling Bling” Visual


Every time I come around your city, bling bling…

Dancehall Artist Skillibeng has a hard time taking a break. Just when you think he’s catching up on some rest from recording and performing, he’s back with new music and content. He is in a place that has given him plenty success, and he can’t slow down the hustle. This time around, he goes 3D in the visual for the track, “Bling Bling“.

Created by 3DLynk, Skillibeng gets animated for “Bling Bling”. Over production by Barrington Neil, Skilli gives us his signature flow, reminding us that he has the fire, and will burn a few microphones in the process. “Bling Bling” was originally released in July, but the animated visual looks to give it more life through the rest of the year. While many would go for the typical music video, it’s great that other Creatives are given a chance to shine. Remember Mental Chung and his animated “Dutty Bwoy” Cartoons? Remember Tommy Lee Sparta’sCaptain Sparta? Let the doors open for more creative endeavours.

Dawn Penn & @WhoIsBEAM Sampled For @OffsetYRN’s “Set It Off” Album


Earlier today, Atlanta Hip Hop Artist Offset released his sophomore album called, “Set It Off“. The former Migos member made it a mission to further prove that he can hold his own as a solo Artist, and connect with more people and markets. The 21 track album has something for everyone, but one track stood out with familiar sounds.

On track 3 of Offset’s “Set It Off” album called “Worth It“, the track starts off with the familiar sound of the 1994 classic “You Don’t Love Me (No No No)” by Reggae Artist Dawn Penn, and the rest had the sound of US-based Recording Artist BEAM and Producer ChaseTheMoney’s new single, “Understand“. “Worth It” was produced by Heavy Mellow and ChaseTheMoney, and featured Singer/Rapper Don Toliver. The classic “Wake the town and tell the people” opener was performed by the late U-Roy for his 1971 single “Wake The Town“, and was sampled for Dawn Penn’s hit, which went on to become a Gold-selling classic, and sampled by many over the years. “Understand” sampled the 1976 classic “Sweet Green Fields” by Seals & Crofts, which was also sampled for Rapper Busta Rhymes’ 1997 classic “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See“. For those unfamiliar, BEAM has been on the scene for a number of years, and is the son of former Dancehall Artist-now Gospel Artist/Minister Papa San. Offset’s “Set It Off” album is out now!
