The brand new single from Trench Town recording artist Hugh English is official out today: Friday, May 13th. Produced by Big Feet Records and distributed by VPal Music, Evil Con Evil is a steady one-drop reggae tune that laments on the wrongful and immoral actions taken by some.

English wrote the song while the pandemic was at its peak in 2020. He said he felt led to pen the words after seeing so many wicked things happening in the world. Persons who are familiar with Hugh English will know that he likes to create songs that are based in reality; as is the case with Evil Con Evil.

For this one, producer Josh Harris (the CEO of Big Feet Records) reached out to Claude Richards for keys (keyboard), JoWayne Campbell for guitar, Santa Davis for drums and Torch – another roots reggae artist – for harmonies.

This is the second collaboration between Big Feet Records and Hugh English. The first was Youth Inna Street, published in July, 2021. Based on the success of that record, both Harris and English are anticipating great things from this new release.

Recorded and mixed by Paolo Baldini DubFiles, at the Alambic Conspiracy Studio in Pordenone, Italy, I And I Chant (Remix) is now available on all digital platforms.

Kerry Starr, the Jamaican singer who was formerly a member of the international reggae group Groundation, is currently promoting her latest single: Mi Ex. The song, which was inspired by actual events, came out at the end of 2021. 

On the record, Starr proclaims her separation from her ex-boyfriend, who is also the father of her only child. She wrote the tune after ending what she describes as a long and destructive relationship with him. 

The producer of Mi Ex is Cantroman, the CEO and owner of Studio 99 Music (the label on which the track is presented). He and Kerry Starr have known each other for some time, as they both once resided in the Hermitage Community concomitantly.

Dissociating from her intimate partner is just one of the major changes Kerry is making. She is also actively trying to get her career back on track after what she says was a ruff couple of years. Apparently the pandemic affected her badly! It cancelled out a tour she was working on; and upended her living situation.
