Kyle Lowry's Top 10 Pre All-Star Game Playlist!

It was just announced (Thursday January 22^nd, 2015) that Toronto Raptor Kyle Lowry will be a starter on team East for the NBA All Star game.  This honor is reserved for the best players in the NBA as voted by players and the fans.  To celebrate (Toronto is my home team after all), I decided to put together my top 10 songs for Kyle’s pre-game listening party!

P.S.  I’m a Reggae and Dancehall chick but I had to throw in some Hip Hop too.  My soundtrack for Kyle Lowry:

Kyle Lowry

10.  Stylo G – Move Back (Diztortion Remix)

9.  Gloomy Grade – Can’t Stop Me Now

8.  Snoop Lion – Here Comes the King

7.  Big Daddy Kane – Ain’t No Half Steppin

6.  Bigga Boss – Nobody Fih Ramp Wid

5.  Bobby Shmurdah – Hot Ni&&a

4.  King Ali Baba – Target

3.  Kranium – History

2.  Busy Signal – Glass Hand

1.  Demarco – Levels to This

As point guard from Villanova by way of Cardinal Doughtery High School in Philadelphia, Kyle has worked his way up from the bottom which is why the number one song comes from Demarco called “Levels to This.”  Anyone who thinks this just ‘came’ to Kyle or any other player, have no idea the training and regiment players go through.

Congrats Kyle … can’t wait to see you do us proud!

Snoop Lion's "Gangnam Style!"

So how does Psy celebrate 2 Billion views on YouTube for his song "Gangnam Style?!"  He plays pool with Snoop Lion!  And what?!

P.S.  Flashback to April 2013 and my exclusive interview with the artist about his album Reincarnated >>> http://issuu.com/l3magazine/docs/l3magazine___april_2013___no._020

HOTTT New Reggae ►►► Eddie Murphy ft. Snoop Lion – Red Light!

Greetings!

 

Music is an infection that can’t be cured, and music is a healing agent that treats all people.  Eddie Murphy’s new single featuring Snoop Lion is both an infection and a healer and this paradox is accomplished through the new song “Red Light!” 

From the time the introduction comes via the roll of the drum and the setting of the bass guitar combined with the pick of the riddim guitar, we know the message will be in the music.  Proving us right, and setting in the ‘infection,’ Eddie Murphy sings “red light / stop right / there where you are / red light / stop right / there where you are / out of the frying pan / into the fire / burning down the people’s souls / my high anxiety / is getting higher / feels like I’m gonna blow / gone is the breeze / it used to be so sweet / poison is the wind that blows / it can’t be long / till the military comes / with a knock – knock – knock on your door / alright….!

Establishing sweet balance, and acting as a healing agent, Snoop Lion adds to the song by sing-jaying “pick up the pieces / let it begin / cause this is the way that we flow / higher and higher and higher we go / through dedication / self preservation / highly I Selassie I ….” 

 

Impressing listeners’ even more, especially Caribbean listeners, Eddie hails Marcus Garvey and makes note of the fact that since our great leaders are gone, we’ve lost our way and darkness has become the day … we need our rebels and leaders to step up again; if we don’t get that back, we’ll have a ‘red light.’ 

For true Reggae lovers, this song is for you.  It is authentic sonically and lyrically; what’s more, Eddie and Snoop could have used their voices to sing about hype but instead use their voice for message music and that should be applauded and played!   

Broadcasting in amplified sound, and taken from his upcoming album called 9, catch Eddie Murphy featuring Snoop Lion and the chune “Red Light” at the links below.  You can also tweet your thoughts of the chune to Team Eddie / Snoop >>> @EddieMurphy | @SnoopLion | @L3Magazine 

P.S.  As Bob Marley once said, ‘one good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain,’ and this my friend is good music!
