Yemi Alade and Patoranking are two musical giants currently representing Africa on the world stage. As such, it goes without saying that if both of them are on the same record the song is going to be a hit! This is the case with the track “Temptation,” which is featured on Alade‘s last album, “Empress.”

The team at Innovation Muzik are celebrating today after learning that their single, “Be Great” which is performed by Tarrus Riley, is now sitting in the number 5 spot on the iTunes Reggae Chart. On the day of this post, the chart of the best selling and most popular reggae songs on iTunes was last updated on Monday, April 12th, 2021.
The newly formed reggae-dancehall record label, Innovation Muzik – owned and operated by both Garfield Lewin aka Kool G and Selector Matches – released the song at the end of January. They also recently shared the official video, which has already racked up over a hundred and fifty thousand views on YouTube.
The men have chosen Tarrus Riley‘s “Be Great” as the ideal song to introduce both their new label, Innvovation Muzik, as well as the soon to be released rhythm-driven album, “21 Greatness Riddim,” because of the powerful messages in Riley‘s lyrics.
On April 12th, 2019, American independent record label Reach Records, which specializes in Christian hip-hop, announced the addition of female MC Wande to their roster. Her introduction came with the release of the single “Blessed Up,” which, along with her other releases, brought a lot of secular listeners to the company. This is primarily because of Wande‘s lyrical prowess.
Fast-forward to April 12th, 2021 and Wande has just shared a brand new mix of that song. The remix features the founder of Reach Records, Lecrae, as well as Mike Todd. Click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.
A day after their appearance on the popular music show ‘Verzuz‘, legendary pop group The Isley Brothers released their new song and video “Friends & Family.” The feel-good record features both Ronald Isley and Snoop Dogg.
