Beckford Music Group Presents: Nemo Dilinga x F.A.M – Wine Pon Mi!

Brooklyn, NY is the kind of borough where you have to sound really good for people to give you a minute of their time, much less a slot on their playlist.  Collaborations are a dime a dozen, but the right collab will make the right people nod their heads and recommend you to others.  This is the case with Nemo Dilinga and F.A.M (Forever After Money) who have merged Dancehall and Trap on their single “Wine Pon Mi.”

Both F.A.M and Nemo Dilinga happened to be in the studio in Brooklyn and got to talking, which led to story telling in which F.A.M shared a scenario that happened to him.  Nemo and the engineer said “that sounds like a song,” so F.A.M went into the booth and told the story.  Nemo added authentic Jamaican vibes which explains why ladies have a weakness for Caribbean men, and voila, in comes the musical ting called “Wine Pon Mi.”

Seducing chick lyrically, F.A.M says: “girl I love the way you wine pon me / I see you got your eyes on me / I know you wanna ride with me / bun a spliff and get high with me / you can touch the sky with me / you can live and die with me ….”  With the tempo switch up, Nemo Dilinga says: “you know me / prefer the BD / no matta / still have she sweating heavy / she never ready fih style weh me unleash / under lock and key like Jet Li ….”

Musically, the track is Trap / R&B and can easily be played between sets and is perfect for mixtapes.  Both artists appear courtesy of newly formed Beckford Music Group who is based in Brooklyn.  Connect with the artists on the Gram:  @x__fam__x | @nemo_dilinga

Honoring Biggie Smalls - We Love You Big Poppa!

Today marks the anniversary of the death of Christopher Wallace aka Notorious B.I.G., aka Biggie Smalls.

There is not a music lover alive who does not acknowledge the significance of Notorious B.I.G. His flow was the epitome of Swag meets Street, and gave perspective to the musings of a man on a mission while living in a concrete jungle.  The Swag was for the ladies, and the Street was for the men, and the two met and mingled and reached levels of understanding. 

B.I.G. was that kind of artist.

Without doubt Biggie was the King of Hip Hop, son of Brooklyn, and cultured Jamaican.  His 2 Billboard Music Awards, 1 MTV Video Music Award, 1 Soul Train Music Award and 4 Source Awards do not reflect the impact his artistry had on the masses.  They don’t tell the story of the upcoming artists who aspired to be like him, nor do they tell the story of how many people sing the punch line to his music when the DJ lowers the volume to hear the crowd.  How do you explain those moments in an award or through album sales?  You can’t! 

To commemorate today’s significance, the team at L3 Magazine created a tribute cover in honor of the Hip Hop icon.  Rest in Peace King.  We Love and miss you…
