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.

For their 3rd episode, Dancehall star Intence takes the spotlight.

Seeing one of his biggest years yet, Intence has been blazing everywhere thanks to his massively popular single, the Countree Hype produced “Yahoo Boyz”. He is building a solid catalogue of hits, and has solidified his place as one of the top acts of the new generation of Dancehall. Armed with an unorthodox flow and clever wordplay, it was only right that he was selected to “Bless The Yaad”. Born Tashawn Gabbidon in the Kingston 6 community of Tavern, Intence made his official debut in 2017 with the single, “Jett Life”. Since then, he has accumulated a large following, and found success with the singles “Yeng”, “Dry Eye”, “Go Hard”, and “Through The Gate” to name a few.

“Bless The Yaad” is the Caribbean version to the popular Audiomack series, “Bless The Booth”. The series is executive produced by Tanya Lawson, with audio by TGUT and Flaire, and video by Sage English. The series premieres every Wednesday with a new featured Artist, and is filmed at the Reggae Legends Villa in Kingston, Jamaica.

Salim "BruceLim" Brown x Robert "Dubwise" Browne - "My Mind = Made Up" on 13thStreetPromotions.com

.@SalimxBruceLim Rocks Out With Dad @RobertDubwise On “My Mind = Made Up”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Musician/Producer Salim “Brucelim” Browne like many musicians, has been channeling his feelings through his Instruments. The Bassist has been crafting beautiful sounds for quite some time, and may be the secret weapon you need in a Studio session. With a handful of releases showcasing his production prowess, he takes a task that finds him collaborating with an Icon. That person is legendary Musician/Producer Robert “Dubwise” Browne, also known as his Dad! Together they make a beautiful moment called, “My Mind = Made Up“.

Armed with their many analog and digital Instruments, Salim and Robert Browne give us the father/son tag team with a diverse range of sounds. Originally an Instrumental with an Artist in mind, Salim scrapped the idea after not seeing any progress, and extended the beat with the help of his Dad. If you like the production, you may want to reach out for a chance to rap/sing/deejay over the beat. The father/son dynamic is no stranger to the music scene, as we have seen collaborations with Vybz Kartel and his sons Likkle Addi and Likkle Vybz, Burro Banton and Leno Banton, Buju Banton with his sons Jahazeil and Markus Myrie, and most recently Tommy Lee Sparta and his son Skirdle Sparta. We hope this opens the door for more father/son collabs, and we look forward to more from Salim “Brucelim” Browne!

(Editor’s note: Big up the Browne family! Generations of talent. Check out this classic.)

.@RootsLewis Is Saving Lives With @JLLProd Produced Single, “Ups And Downs”

Posted on by swadedavillain

A few years ago we did a weekly segment in honour of “Women’s History Month“, and one of those Women we honoured was the late Singer, Barbara Jones. She blessed the scene with her lovely voice, gave us beautiful music to remember, and left a solid legacy. Carrying on her legacy and carving his own lane, is her son Hector “Roots” Lewis Jr. He is a Musician, a frequent collaborator with many of your favourite Artists including Chronixx, and is now fully stepping out as the first Artist signed to Chronixx’s Soul Circle Music label. He puts his best foot forward with his much anticipated single, “Ups And Downs“.

Teaming up with acclaimed Producer J.L.L., Hector “Roots” Lewis gives listeners healing, upliftment, and all around good vibes with “Ups And Downs”. He encourages listeners to never give up when there is failure in their life as “you can never rise if you never yet fall down“, holds his ground as he knows he’s built for the challenges that life has in store for him, and reminds us to always have Jah in everything you do. “Roots” Lewis steps out strong with “Ups And Downs”, and we’re confident that his new journey will be very fruitful.
