Mr Vegas featuring Teairra Mari 'Boy Shorts'

Another week, another American jumps on the dancehall wave. I tweeted about this song after hearing it on Robbo Ranx's 1Xtra Dancehall show (a must listen for the biggest tunes). Then the next day there's a remix. Thankfully I tweeted it before the remix. No bandwagon hopping around here.

Teairra Marie is the girl that was sisgned to Roc-a-fella just as Jay-Z had taken over Def Jam, came out the same time as Rihanna and Neyo. Her first song wasMake Her Feel Good followed No Daddy. Rihanna killed off all her chances with Pon Di Replay. Neyo had So Sick and Sexy Love. All dancehall inspired beats. Now Teairra's on it? Realisation maybe?

Anyway here's the tune:



Big up Snocone, riddim mad

Last week we had the hottest female rapper in the game Nicki Minaj tweet the lyrics to Ricky Blaze's Just You and I, and stating she wants Vybz Kartel for her album Pink Friday (not forgetting frequent use of Jamaican patois), Estelle on Wayne Marshall's My Heart, Americans like Neyo (if you have proper ears and a brain, Miss Independent was a rip-off before Kartel jumped on it), Rihanna and Sean Kingston's imitation dancehall beats, Drake loves it... It's crazy how often they fight against the music yet every time it rises back again. Sign of great music. Don't sleep

Marvin Sparks x Raekwon interview

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

Why Cheetah Woods, whhyyyy?!?!?!

We must all know about the predator nyamin woman (no bowcat reference intended - or am I lying? *shudders*). Anyone heard the voicemail he left for the girl he's been PARrin (there was a golf reference there) his wife with? Easy now my selekta as we rinse some tunes for di one name Tiger. Man like him doesn't know how to play. (By The Endz not Ruff Sqwad) How you gonna leave a voicemail for a girl with your real name at the beginning? Do you want to be held to ransom? Man from 'the ends' know (in the words of Kano) "That's slippin'!" And when isht hits the fan (like it has) he's buggered. Not something I deal in but surely the point of cheating is for an assortment of ladies. All his ones look the same; blonde, no breast nor batty.

Remember When Riddims Were King

Before you read, thank you for your interest and hope you enjoy. I actually fleshed it out into a book. You can get your copy from www.nolongstories.com   Now for what you came here for... When Riddims Were King 23rd May 2020 will be remembered in history for one of the most epic events in one of our universe's darkest times. We will never forget the night dancehall kings and former extremely heated rivals, Beenie Man and Bounty Killer, battled on the Verzuz platform built by hall-of-fame producers, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. An unfiltered, 360-degree view on Jamaican dancehall events was showcased; DJ’s and dancing (Beenie Man’s daughter Desha Ravers) to deejay’s clashing on the same riddims. The latter elements provided the jewels in the night’s highlight reel, and undoubtedly the best thing to happen on the Verzuz series. Word spread like guava jelly within the dancehall community and Jamaican diaspora upon announcement. Not only was it a clash between the longest and fier
