A few days ago veteran reggae artist Lutan Fyah shared the official video for his latest single, Bad Girl, Good To Me. All his fans and supporters are loving the song and sees it as another potential hit for the Jamaican sing-jay. However, there are a few people who are expressing concern at some of the images displayed in the official video.
Because of the song’s lyrical content – which is all about him (Lutan Fyah) being with a bad girl – the director created visuals that showed women in a demeaning manner. This is according to persons in the Rasta community. If you have not yet seen the clip, click here or on the image above to check it out so that you can form your own opinion.
Singer, songwriter and producer Rod Wave must have had an extra Cold December, because he has just released a song saying the same.

A lot has changed in the music industry as a result of the corona virus pandemic. Most performers are unable to accept bookings because of the very real possibility of cancellation and the uncertainty surrounding turnout.
While some artists have decided to sit out the pandemic, others have simply adopted to the new norm by amending their overall strategy. One such artist is dancehall deejay Capleton. Though he is not doing nearly as much shows as he was before covid-19, King Shango remains very active in the business by consistently sharing new content.
His latest is an inspirational record titled Rise & Shine (done for Sponge Music). It was published on January 21st along with its official video. Click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.
Dancehall artist Karamanti and the team at Blakkwuman22 Music have just uploaded the official video for Start With A Prayer. The song is the lead single on Karamanti‘s just released Spiritual Warfare album, published in December.
All the scenes for the video were captured at Anchor Recording Studios in Kingston, Jamaica by fellow dancehall artist Mackamilli aka Macka Head (from the Innocent Crew); while the complete editing were done in house by Maria Jackson Entertainment.
As it relates to the actual song; the rhythm for Start With A Prayer was created by Old Harbour based producer Lamar Thompson, who is the CEO and owner of AudioTraxx Productions. Karamanti‘s own Blakkwuman22 Music is the executive producer, publisher and independent distributor of the entire project.
In addition to being the first song on the Spiritual Warfare album, Start With A Prayer is also one of four songs featured on the Restart Riddim; a dancehall compilation that also has music from Peppery, I-Talawah and Sherida Sharpe.
People are quick to throw out the word legend when talking about artists in hip-hop; some are deserving while most fall short. However, when you look at the career of Billy Danze all accolades are well deserved.
As both a member of the legendary rap duo M.O.P. (with Lil Fame) and a solo artist, William Berkowitz – publicly known as Billy Danze – has countless classic records.
His new single and accompanying music video, “The Chief,” is another certified banger. It’s off of his new album “The Re-Listening Session.”
