Double Dancehall with Jah Prince : Face Off Fridays Promo Mix

Face Off Friday Jah Prince Cooyah

Yes I know, I know that it’s been a minute since I uploaded the monthly mixes but here we go… Straight shouts to the UK crew who listens straight from here on this blog. As Face Off Fridays moves into our 7th Year, gotta ‘Give Thanks’ to JayForce_ and the staff here at the blog! This is the link to the October 2011 Promo Mix.

And this is the link to the November 2011 Promo Mix.

Reggae: I-Wayne – “Life Teachings” (Documentary)

I Wayne’s now classic “Can’t Satisfy Her” & “Living In Love” are two of his joints that I never get tired of hearing. Those were two big hit tunes that crossed over into many mainstream urban clubs & also launched him into international stardom. Despite some of the critical success of his debut album Lava Ground, I Wayne hasn’t done a gang of interviews with the media that I feel could have catapulted him a little farther. His publicity & interviews seemed very limited even for a reggae artist with a hit that was crossing over. This documentary comes at a good time with I Wayne’s third album ‘Life Teachings’ that just dropped in October.

Elephant Man x Bounty Killer – “Survivor” (Video)

Another good HD video featuring the Energy God Elephant Man and The General of the Alliance Bounty Killer. This song has some good lyrics and the video does have a good storyline. But just to see the fun in Dancehall and images of ladies on a boat can never get old!

Produced by Stephen ‘Di Genius’ McGregor @diGenius1 + also follow Bounty Killer @GrungGaadzilla + Elephant Man @ElediEnergyGod

Khago Interview with Jah Prince ‘Sunsplash Mix Show’

sms_1105 Khago InterviewVery anticipated interview with Khago and he did not hold back to answer the questions submitted by the fans from as far as Gambia to Kenya, UK to USA. We speak on him being underrated by many people in the music industry, even in Jamaica and then about him singing more music for females even if he does not actually pen the lyrics himself. We speak on his Reggae Sumfest performance in Jamaica and also when Beenie Man called him out on stage in New York City during the ‘Reggae Rhythm & Blues‘.

We talk about his song ‘Tun Up D Ting‘ on the Overproof Riddim, one of the hottest dancehall riddims of the Summer 2011 produced by Justus.

Protoje – ‘No Lipstick’ (Video)


Take it from me, THIS IS JAMAICA, as we view another high quality music video shot in Jamaica at the wonderful property of Great Huts Resort. This tells a simple story from the chorus, ‘She puts her lips to my blunt and kiss it’ very clever without being explicit. This single is from the 7 Year Itch album released early this year and is another banger for all crews and was the first single off the CY SUMMER REGGAE promo mixtape.
