Macka B On The Lineup Of The 2024 Reggae Dub Nation Festival

Veteran British-born Jamaican reggae artist Macka B is one of the artists confirmed for the upcoming Reggae Dub Nation Festival happening on Friday, November 8th and Saturday, November 9th at the John Lennon Cultural Center (41 Rue de Feytiat) in Limoges, France.

The reggae-dancehall toaster is promoting his recently released single “Still Look Good,” which was published on October 4th, as well as its official video shared approximately four weeks later.

Nesbeth’s New Single “Str888 Nation” Is Already Trending!

Despite his numerous releases, most of which are socially conscious, inspirational, and catchy, when we hear the name Nesbeth, we immediately think about his 2015 breakout megahit song “My Dream.” To be precise, “My Dream” was officially released on October 5th of the above-stated year, but weeks before it came out, it was already buzzing on Jamaica’s underground music scene. 

Something similar may be happening with Nesbeth‘s latest tune, “Str888 Nation.” Although this song is already available on streaming platforms (it was published on October 4th, 2024), it is one of the many tunes that is getting a lot of spins, pull-ups, and forwards at local parties and dances nationwide.

On the record, the Rastafarian singer distinguishes himself from some of his colleagues in the industry who may be willing to compromise their integrity for fame and fortune. He sings, “All when a me alone, mi still a stay strong, the world full a hate me no deh ya fi stay long, kill me dead yu know a str888 nation, naa sell me soul, me, love me salvation.” 

The trending dancehall track can be streamed and downloaded on Apple Music, Spotify, Pandora, Amazon Music, iTunes, and all other digital music stores where reggae-dancehall is sold.

“In the summer of 1999, at 16 yrs old and with a year of sixth form ahead, I met @spraggabenz3 for the first time at Penthouse Recording Studio who jokingly told Donavan Germain, “Germain, da yute ya wah dj fi him summer holiday”. This basically signaled the start of my professional journey as an artiste and this summer makes it 25 years. I invite you to join me in celebrating that and all else that we each have to be grateful for, on December 29, literally on the banks of the Hope River. “How could I not be grateful?” #GiveThanks #SascoLive”

Introducing Six-Year-Old Adanya

A few months ago, while he was busy working on the “Land Scape Riddim,” producer and recording artist Rajah Dalla was surprised by his then five-year-old daughter Adanya, who confidently expressed an interest in voicing on the project. Unsure of what she had in mind, Rajah Dalla, who is also known as Amnon, allowed her to present her idea. The father-daughter studio session resulted in a catchy dancehall tune called “ABCDE” sung by young Adanya featuring her dad Rajah Dalla.

Due to the overwhelmingly positive feedback received about the track, they wasted no time in planning, shooting, and editing its official video. The clip, which shows Adanya at school among her peers, was uploaded to YouTube earlier this week. Everyone who has heard the song and seen the visual is already making assertions about Adanya‘s promising career as a recording artist.

“Land Scape Riddim” was released on July 30, 2024, on the Watzh You Frenz Records label. It also has music by Karamanti, Minimaxx, Wull Ferm, M.A.P., Ras Bentley, 1Nag, and Dhawlkiis. The EP is available on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, and all other streaming platforms.; it is being distributed by Blakkwuman22 Music.
