Busy Signal is
dealing with a serious case of “Blurred
Lines” and I think this case has come due to overwhelming demand from Mixed
format DJ’s on Radio and who produce Mixed Tapes.The HOTTT-ED one has remixed his HOTTT
singles “Bedroom Bully” and “Same Way” to the hit “Blurred Lines”
riddim.
Both chunes are hits; the original versions can easily take
you from Throwback Dancehall to Hardcore Dancehall, and now with the remixes,
you can move to or from uptempo R&B / Throwback Funk.I’m looking at my crystal ball, and I think
these remixes are a clear sign of some of the projects coming up soon for
Busy.Looking at the chronology, the “All
in One” chune implemented Funk and Hip Hop, now the “Blurred Lines” remixes …
yup!My crystal ball doesn’t lie!No matter what, you can’t contain the
versatility, creativity or direction of the HOTTT-ED!
Let me put this chune into context before I go into the meat
of this eblast.There’s money, and then
there’s stoooooooooopid money.There’s
Joe Public kind of money, then there’s Oprah, Carlos Slim Helu, and Bill Gates kind
of money.Good.The brand new chune from Wayne Marshall caters to the latter … the people who are working
for “Stupid Money!”
Produced by Damian
Jr. Gong Marley, this new chune is the second single from Wayne’s album
called Tru Colors, and features vocals from Wayne’s 7 year old son Giomar whose
voice is heard singing the chorus.Adding spice and grit to the production is Agent Sasco who DJ’s some tough lyrics.
Riding the piano keys, Wayne sing-jays:“cheddar cheddar / genuine leather / from
bully beef to lobster bruschetta / jet setta / shopping in Vienna / custom
Louis V with the shades and the sweater / define the treasure / a dub beeper / I
got better / focus / tru that mih better / now I’m a master / money getter /
rich forever / have some new fans that look like Ke$ha ….”Kaboom!
The chune has an international feel (and will still appeal
to the Caribbean dancehall market) and ambition which resonates with listeners
urging them to do more and aim higher for that ‘stupid money!’Adding spice and grit, Agent Sasco DJ’s “me
ah tell yuh bout stupid money / dunce funds / me ah talk Bill Gates – Donald Trump
funds / nah talk bout lunch money / no lunch funds / we talking lump sums /
trust funds for mih great, great Grandsons sons / stupid money / mih dollars
have no sense / mih buy ah Benz dealership because Mommy wants a Benz….”Double Kaboom!
If ‘strings’ is your thing, you will appreciate Gong Zilla’s
sonic use and placement of stringed instruments which complements the prominent
piano riff.The way the strings are
used, you hear the maturity, class and money in the chune … point well made!

As we journey on life’s road, we come to a point where the
fighter in us must come out because if it doesn’t, we are either not going to
get what we want, or we are going to be bullied.Cham
and Jr. Gong make sure that these
circumstances don’t reach their fans by recording this undeniable street heat
chune, “Fighter!”
Produced by Dave
Kelly for Madhouse Records, Mr.
Kelly finds the right notes to get the attention of the youths by introducing
the chune with an electronic sounding base and a militant drum pattern.This is the perfect opening for Cham to
state:“we made it but we did things our
way / gotta give thanks and praises each day / we hustle real hard so we
control our future / tun it up ….”These
words make way for Jr. Gong as he sing-jays:“like a beacon on the mountain / shining through like the rising sun /
so shall it be for the faithful / the ones who never stop till the work is done
/ we grind cause the system / does not favor the common man / but he shall reap
the riches / plentiful like the grains of sand….”
Not stopping there, Cham brings home his point to the chune
by DJ’ing:“we nuh quit when we ah
struggle / man ah fighter from we born / wifey haffi hot so from a hustling we
gone / bruk and touch dih road / me nah come een till dawn / so when me say
‘on’ / yuh betta sen it on / screw the mutha lova’s who use we like a pawn /
it’s all about the money / now ah dat we ah demand / ain’t lookin for no
trouble / but ah years dat ah gwaan / so mek we tun it on….”
The significance of these words is that they are true to
Cham’s heart and career.Going back in
the pages of time, Cham tells us of producers who over looked him as an artist
because his tone was nasal and not like most other artists.Dave Kelly saw the passion in a young 16-17-18
year old Cham and worked with him, and now look at where he is today.The “Fighter” in Cham came out, and still
comes out every time he hits the recording booth and the stage.He fought so the world can know his talent …
the words he DJ’s comes from experience so this record is a special gift from
Cham to fans as he says ‘I understand.’
There is nothing about this chune you
won’t love which is why you’ll have it on repeat from the iPod to the computer
to the car and all other points in between!

Earlier this year, I introduced Kardi Tivali because of his performance
on the chune “Dark and Stubborn”
produced by Canada’s Puddy Suspectz.That performance got Kardi play on radio and
in Dancehall’s worldwide … everyone who hears his voice gives the stamp of
approval.
A few months ago, Kardi released chunes that showed off
finesse when working the females, so chunes like “Let Me Love You”
and “Like a Knot” set them good like ice in a freezer.Today, Kardi drops by to deliver his newest single
called “Fresh & Clean Out!”
Set to a Hip Hop beat, and making it the perfect chune to
use as a segue from Hip Hop to Dancehall, or Dancehall to Hip Hop, Kardi rides
the beat like how a Honda CBR hugs the asphalt, and takes you on a ride that
you want to do again and again.
Riding the riddim, Kardi sing-jays:Dancehall ah gwaan / whole heap ah girls inna
dih land / look how the DJ ah perform / rock and come een yah / every massive
every crew / maxfield to seaview / sipping brew and ah smoke sensimenia / no
dote / mih fresh clean mih note / Isimiaki cologne / give me / good good
support / wet up the reasoning / no dry throat / Dancehall party alone ah get
my vote …”
If you like hearing an artist measure an bend every word to
fit a riddim, then Kardi Tivali is definitely the artist for you.Trust me when I tell you, he is
HOTTT-ER!Big up DJ Naz Gurl Power for her unwavering support of this artist!
