Posted on August 8, 2015 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Westmorland based Reggae/Dancehall Gospel artist Da Counsellor has just released another video from his latest album, ‘You Going To Lose.’ The video is for the second single which is entitled ‘Lend Out Me Money’ and it deals with the issue of subtle theft. In both the song and video Da Counsellor is constantly lending money to persons he considers to be friends, but when it comes time to repay the money they all go to great lengths to avoid him.

The video was conceptualized and shot by the MJE team at different locations in and around the Parish of Westmorland while all the editing was done by Ramon Lindsay. Persons may watch the video here: and Gospel DJs can email mariajacksonent@gmail.com for a promo download link of the entire album.

Major Jamaican Networks Refusing To Play The Video For ‘Fake Rasta’ Due To Its Content

Posted on July 30, 2015 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

A few TV stations in Jamaica are refusing to add Karamanti’s video for the song ‘Fake Rasta’ into rotation unless changes are made. Their concern lies with the word OBEAH which is used in verse two on the track. Although the word is not considered a curse word many gate keepers to the various networks have made it clear that they are not comfortable putting the video on air and have gone as far as to advice Karamanti to edit out the word and resubmit the video.

Per the request of the artist, Ramon Lindsay, the video editor has made the necessary changes and so the video will be resent to all Jamaican networks. Anyone wanting a copy of the video with the word OBEAH edited out may download it from the link below. Watch the original video here:
