HOTTT New Dancehall / Pop / Hip Hop ►►► Melodic Yoza – Countri Bunkan!

For those of you who have been asking for more of a mix between Dancehall and Pop / Hip Hop, you are going to appreciate the current release from Melodic Yoza called “Countri Bunkan.”  

The only Dancehall / Reggae heard on this track are the vocals of the artist and the enunciation of his words.  The music is 100% Pop / Hip Hop making it infectious and easy for fans and music lovers to follow.  With that said, what is the big deal about people who come from ‘country’ and people who come from the city?  Why are country people discouraged and city people encouraged?

Melodic sings:  “Hold on tight don’t let go / this is the life that I know / from ah likkle and ah grow / they used to be like ‘bwoy know where you ah go’ / hey County Bunkan whap’m where you come from talkin bout yuh gun man / that is such a dumb plan / run go beat drum pan try and be someone / you didn’t pass your common entrance / couldn’t get an entrance….”

The song goes on to share the conversation between a ‘country’ yute and Melodic who encourages the yute to strive for more.  He also intersperses scenes of growing up flying kites and playing with gigs to show that he understands where this man is coming from.  I truly endorse this chune!

Broadcasting in amplified sound, here are the links for download.  Make sure you let Melodic know what you think about the chune via Twitter >>> @MELODICYOZA and get in touch for dubplates / jingles / features via frazahclection@gmail.com

P.S.  This chune is DJ Bigga Boss endorsed!

The ILLIONNaires – Good Girl + Not Around Remix!

Looking at the name The ILLIONNaires, figuring out who they are and what they represent won’t be so easy.  As soon as you hear their music, not only will you be moving (head bob at minimum), you’ll be singing along to their punch line “I think I gotta good girl….” 

Based in the UK, the duo, are best described as fusion where R&B / Pop meets a pinch of Dance with a dose of Caribbean flavor.  They are producers and song writers as well as vocalists which gives them a unique perspective on music, and a unique performance.  Unique in this case is good!  

The first single I received from them is called “Good Girl,” which, if you believe music starts with the bass line, is definitely the song for you!  The sugary bass determines the pulse of the song and gives off a visual effect of a couple enjoying each other’s company on a rainy day.  One thing leads to another, and another, and another…! 

Appreciating good music as much as you do, you’re going to appreciate this song from the UK’s ILLIONNaires!

Tha Vor Gives Them ‘What They Want!’

Without dispute, Tha Vor is one of my favourite artists because this dude has swag locked.  No, I’m not one of ‘those’ chicks who wants a dude dressed in brand this, or brand that pushing a whip on Asanti wheels and rims.  Instead, I’m a chick who’s turned on by the lyrics an artist throws to me in hopes I can catch.  I’m a catcher! 

So Tha Vor has released the video for “What They Want” which is a Reggae infused Hip Hop track that is a juxtaposition between the spiritual (good overcoming evil) and the physical (relations with a young lady); and the concept works! 

Peep the video, and vibe to these lyrics:  “yo Joe / my voice taking the world ova / yo dude / I thought I was just here to kill cobras / got heavy rollers / mic / army of angels on my shoulda / caught up in the star wars / I rip the force like Yoda / but soddering ah weh dih young gyal want / getting hysterical / ain’t even flipped that / green / already she calling me incredible / flow / on point ….” 

 

P.S.  Big up Smoke Shop Productions on the beat which is dirty, rude, lacks manners and has no behavior.  In other words … it’s our kind of music!  J
