.@KyngTavii Looks To Start A Revolution In New Video!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today, August 1, is celebrated as Emancipation Day in a few Caribbean countries. In Jamaica, it marks the day of the Emancipation Declaration in 1838, and many Jamaicans recognize it in through a series of events. Comedian Kyng Tavii wanted to do his part through content creation, and he gives us a new video called, “Bad Slaves“.

Kyng Tavii reenacts a day of Slavery where he and fellow slaves were toiling in the cane fields. With freedom on their minds, Tavii tries to put together a plan where he and the slaves can escape the Plantation, and join revolutionaries like Paul Bogle in Morant Bay to set Black people free. The plan quickly backfires when Tavii was abandoned by the fellow slaves, and when they were caught, he was given the task to watch over them. Will Tavii find success with his plan this time around? The video was not made to offend, but to show many to never forget their name and roots, and it also showed the sad reality that many will be quick to sell you out when times get tough.

Emancipate Yourselves From Every Form Of Slavery!

OLDIES SUNDAY: Merciless – Mavis (1995)

Posted on by swadedavillain

On July 19, Dancehall lost a lyrical legend who went by the name, “Merciless“. Born Leonard Bartley, Merciless was known to take over the scene with a barrage a lyrics that will thrill the listener, and let other Artists know that he’s ready for anything. Nicknamed “Warhead” and calls himself the “Warring don from Clarendon“, Merciless had a few hits over the years in addition to his wins as a lyrical contender. For today’s Oldies Sunday selection, we highlight one his hits, “Mavis“.

Produced by Robert Livingston and Shaun ‘Sting International’ Pizzonia, “Mavis” was released through Big Yard Production in 1995. On the track, Merciless is all about the ladies here as he shares that he has what it takes to make them come back for more. He spoke about the various ladies who come his way, and warns that if the Man cannot fulfill a Woman’s request of satisfaction, she will go elsewhere. “Mavis” was featured on the “Boombastic Riddim“, and Merciless name dropped Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, and Chuck Norris, sharing that the ladies don’t need the “tough guy“, but rather a Man who can “Wuk har good“.

“Mavis” became a hit for Merciless, and opened the door for a career that found him scoring a few more, and providing him a lane that made him a formidable opponent in Dancehall clashes. The one night Dancehall event Sting would find Merciless in attendance yearly to add notches to his belt. His most famous Sting was in 2000 when he went up against Bounty Killa, Beenie Man, and Ninja Man, becoming the victor in the end. Merciless solidified his space in Dancehall, and he will be missed by fans, family, and members of the music fraternity.

Thank You Merciless For This Classic! Walk Good.
