On Friday, April 23rd, the king of the dancehall, Beenie Man, will grace the Bold stage to perform all his hits. The performance will stream live via Berger Caribbean’s Facebook page and YouTube channel. Starting time is 7 PM (in Jamaica) and 8 PM (in Trinidad and Barbados).
Jamaican reggae singer Warrior King is generating a major buzz in the music industry with his most recent single, ‘African Love’ – a collaboration with West African superstar MzVee. The afrobeat track, created by popular producer Jermaine ‘Crawba Genius’ Henry, infused with a Latin undertone, has been deemed a contemporary take on Warrior King’s authentic reggae sound.
The 2021 project, released on digital platforms on April 9, is a sample of the 1990s reggae hit single ‘Hello Mama Africa’ by Garnett Silk.
The ongoing pandemic was not a deterrent for the two music sensations. Vocals for MzVee and Warrior King were recorded separately – in Ghana and Jamaica.
‘African Love’ also features the musical skills of Keneil DeLisser on drums and Almondo Douglas, on guitar. The project is the second collaborative effort between Warrior King’s Rootz Warrior Productions and Crawba Productions; the first being the song ‘Moonlight Bright’ from the singer’s ‘Rootz Warrior’ album released in April 2016.
Earlier this year Nashville recording artist GRW collaborated with Jamaica’s Junior Reid on the single “World Upside Down.” The record began trending on most, if not all music platforms, shortly after it was released. It received major media coverage in Jamaica, with both artists appearing on some of the top entertainment TV shows, as well as in the national newspapers.
A few weeks after the audio was shared, the men followed up with the official video. Sadly, because of all the online noise many people may have missed it. That being said, click here or on the image above to check out the video and remember to like, comment and share.
At the end of the 90s and into the early 2000s one of the hottest hip-hop record was “Whoa!,” a club banger performed by then Bad Boy recording artist Black Rob. The song became somewhat of an anthem as it reached the Billboard Hot 100 and propelled Black Rob to instant stardom.
Sadly, Black Rob has passed away. He died in the hospital on Saturday, April 17th after a reported battle with kidney failure.
Since last year, dancehall artist Jahmiel has been giving us songs loaded with inspirational messages as he tackles the crime and violence happening on the island. “Too Late,” his newest release, which is on the Tropical Depression Riddim by Damage Musiq, is another powerful record from the deejay.
Although it’s done in collaboration with Navino, it is Jahmiel‘s verse that really stands out. Click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.
This Summer, specifically on June 11th, reggae singer Turbulence will be releasing his new album, “The Remedy.” As such, last week the he shared the official video for “Mountain Top,” one of the tracks that is featured on the project.

This past week, Hezron and the team here at Maria Jackson Entertainment began capturing visuals for his version of The Hollies’ “The Air That I Breathe.” The reggae remix was released in the last quarter of 2020 via the LTK 20 Records label, and the consensus from everyone who have heard it is that Hezron‘s rendition is much more heartfelt and captivating.
As soon as it came out, it began getting heavy rotation on reggae platforms all over the world; with music critics making predictions of its imminent success. Months later, the song continues to do well, particularly in parts of Europe and Africa.
The video, which is being done by Maria Jackson, is a three-day shoot that features local actress Shernette Williams – who plays the role of Hezron‘s love interest – and emerging actor Carl Parker – who appears in the video as Hezron. With two days of shooting now behind us, we will do the final shoot approximately one week from now, providing Hezron‘s schedule permits.
