Sean Paul – ‘Got 2 Luv U’ feat. Alexis Jordan (Video)


I’ve been telling people that Sean Paul is still very valid in the Dancehall community just like Shaggy and Sean Kingston. No matter how much the online media promote riddims and passa passa about the other leading artists, there are just a few that ‘ACTUALLY DO THINGS‘ properly.

Check out the world premiere of Sean Paul’s new music video for “Got 2 Luv U”, which features the beautiful miss Alexis Jordan! The video was shot at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, and was directed by Ben Mor. The Song was also featured on the ‘Face Off Fridays’ monthly promo cd passed out to fans of the monthly event. Dutty Ayeeee!

Ne-Yo feat. Mavado – I Know You Want Me (Remix) [Video]

Ne-Yo is making good on his attempts to further reggae music around the world with his new Compound Island label dedicated to breaking Jamaican artists. One of the first songs he recorded was the “I Know You Want Me” remix with Mavado. Although Mavado isn’t exactly a new artist in anyway, their collaboration is a quality start in setting the tone for the new movement.  I first heard this remix about a month ago, but I didn’t expect a video for this joint to drop. I’m not mad at it either. Ya Dun Know!

[AUDIO] Jah Prince Interview with Ziggy Marley x Sunsplash Mix Show

Ziggy Marley Interview

Today we talk to the artist Ziggy Marley about his current album ‘Wild and Free’ in stores now. We discuss to his positive promotion of ‘hemp aka cannabis’ in the title track and his comfort performing live at concerts just as much as late night television. Forward to Love is the song in rotation now and is one of the album’s universal messages. Ziggy Marley talks about the good things Jamaica has to offer with a song with Toots Hibbert.

Also the rest of the mix includes new Dancehall music:

Ziggy Marley Interview x Jah Prince ‘Sunsplash Mix Show’ + [VIDEO]

sms_0806 Ziggy Marley
I gotta give credit to Jimmy Fallon because he had Ziggy Marley perform ‘Forward To Love’ on his show a couple times so know i get a chance to interview him. One question we’re gonna ask is him is ‘Why DEA is Against Legalizing Smoked Marijuana? (YUPP)

Following the interview with his brother Stephen Marley, we now catch up with another son of the legendary Robert ‘Bob’ Marley on the Sunsplash Mix Show. This radio show dedicated to introduce the Atlanta audience to new Reggae and Dancehall music plus a steady stream of artist interviews.

We’re gonna ask him about his new album ‘Wild and Free’ and tour dates across the globe including Japan, USA and Europe when he bumped into Chuck D original Public Enemy in switzerland at the open air hip hop festival.

Mavado – “I Know You Want Me” Remix feat. Ne-Yo

Mavado links up with Ne-Yo for the the remix to ‘I Know You Want Me’ which sounds pretty dope. Found myself replaying it several times after the first listen. Apparently Ne-Yo is wasting no time in working with many established talented artists like Mavado in the reggae/dancehall community, but he’s also getting his new reggae label Compound Island off the ground & into a great start in discovering new Jamaican artists. I’ve said it before that Ne-Yo’s decision to assist in discovering & nurturing great Jamaican talent is a smart move because reggae music really is a global music genre.

Kardinal Offishall – Ol Time Killing Part 2 (Anywhere)

Ran across this banger that Kardinal posted on his twitter page & I had to keep rewinding it back! Pulllllllll Uuuuppppppppp! My favorite song from the Toronto Canada representer Kardinall Offishall hands downs down is the original ‘Ol Time Killing’, but this part 2 version produced by himself & Dready is a nice follow up to arguably his biggest tune over the years! The song is slated to appear on Kardy’s upcoming album Mr. International that’s due to drop this year. Morrrr Fiyahhhhhh!!!

Shaggy – “Sugarcane” [VIDEO]


Another high quality video out of Jamaica with the star of the show SHAGGY. As you watch this reggae video, I am sure you ALL KNOW what the reference to ‘Sugar Cane’ is but Shaggy does a great job of selling one of the reasons why female tourists visit the Caribbean islands. Shouts to team at CY Clothing Inc. on the 45 Special tee, the leading lady Chantelle, her sister Krystal and my good UK friend Nickkkkkkers who did a good cameo in the video ( @nic_kers ).
