Derrick Scott Ends 2021 At #3 On New York’s Reggae Chart & #9 on South Florida’s Reggae Chart

Posted on December 28, 2021 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

The reggae-gospel man who is always on a mission, Derrick Scott, has had an amazing year. 2021 saw him re-sharing a couple of previously released singles: God Answer Prayer and Hello Jesus. Both have enjoyed good rotation on gospel platforms and in some instances, have even crossed over to secular networks.

Such is the case with God Answer Prayer, which is – at the time of this writing – sitting in the #3 spot on New York’s reggae chart and #9 on South Florida’s reggae chart. In addition to Derrick‘s songwriting and vocal skills, the success of this record within the reggae community can also be attributed to Neville Martin‘s My Leader Born Yah, which was a huge hit in Jamaica back in the day.

Scott re-made the song for his Gospel Truth album by changing the message while keeping the flow. This is also why the official video for God Answer Prayer places a lot of emphasis on Jamaica, from the island’s independence to present day.

Paul Patmore Production Shares Official Video For “Rooted & Grounded”

Posted on December 17, 2021 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Since it was released at the beginning of September, Rooted & Grounded – the upbeat dancehall song performed by Terry Linen and Dipmatik – have been getting heavy rotation on radio, as well as consistent feature on music platforms.

The overwhelmingly positive feedback led Paul Patmore, the producer, to create some visuals, hoping that it would give the record even more exposure.

That said, the video was filmed in Falmouth, Trelawney (Jamaica) approximately two weeks ago. It was subsequently edited and have since been released. It tells the story of a drug pusher turned Christian after being robbed and almost killed on the streets of Jamaica.

The visuals were directed, shot and edited by Maria Jackson.

Minister Marion Hall (Formerly Lady Saw) Releases New Music ‘If I Was Famous’

Posted on December 17, 2021 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Minister Marion Hall (formerly Lady Saw) is in a reflective mode with her newest single, “If I Was Famous.” The self-produced track, which dropped today, December 17, 2021, paints a stark contrast between her present life as an ordained minister and her past career as a Dancehall artiste.

As she describes, the beat was sent to her by God and she met with Clarky from Chromatic and several musicians that he had worked with before to lay down the track. From that, the lyrics flowed and resulted in a high energy, enticing track.

Distributed by Zojak World Wide, “If I Was Famous” is available for purchase and streaming on major digital platforms online.
