Veteran dancehall deejay Bunny General, who has been active in the industry since the late seventies, is once again rising to prominence. Prior to the covid-19 pandemic the artist was very active on the European scene: headlining shows, while simultaneously recording new music for Euro-based producers.
One such single is Love Reggae Music Bad, a song done with France’s Iron Dubz. The record was officially released at the beginning of September and it is has been getting nothing but positive reviews since it came out. Bunny General, who is known and respected for his lyrical prowess delivered an old school roots flow that is absolutely captivating. On a laid back reggae beat he expounds on his passion for the musical artform created on the small island of Jamaica: reggae music.
With all the attention that he is currently getting, Bunny is making it clear that he is ready to get back to work; whether it’s shows, tours or new music, local or international. His next project is the Restart Riddim; a dancehall juggling that will be released via the Blakkwuman22 Music label this Fall.
Approximately one week ago international recording artist Anthony B released the official video for his song Pretty Girls. Unfortunately, because the online space is now so crowded I fear that a lot of people are not aware of this stunning video in which Anthony delivers a strong performance.
Though he is known mostly for his reggae hits, Anthony B handled this dancehall riddim like a boss. If you have not yet seen the video, click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.

In 2012 Paul Patmore, the CEO and owner of Patmore Funeral Home, ran and won as an independent councillor for the Lorimers division in the Trelawny Parish Council (Jamaica). Despite not being affiliated with any of the two major political parties, Patmore was an effective councillor who was even given the Governor General (GG) Award for his contribution to community development.
Although his tenure was successful by all accounts, Patmore decided not to seek re-election; choosing instead to focus his attention on his businesses, one of which is his record label: Paul Patmore Production.
While running his funeral home and working as a politician, Paul has always simultaneously created music. Initially it was done as hobby but as time passed he began to see it as an actual revenue source.
Consequently, Paul Patmore is now gearing up to release what he considers to be a very powerful rhythm-driven project. He shared the first single a few days ago: “Rooted and Grounded,” performed by Terry Linen and Dipmatik. This is an inspirational dancehall record that has been well received by reggae-dancehall enthusiasts all over the world.
Paul, who has previously worked with prominent artists like Louie Culture, Pinchers and others, is intending to publish the Rooted and Grounded dancehall compilation before the end of the year. In addition to the aforementioned song, Paul has also recorded new music from Little Hero and Tony Curtis for this project.
