International Theme Song ►►► Levi – Make Peace!

Every now and again a theme song comes along; a theme song that gives the world lyrics to sing to; lyrics that connect with the soul on such a level, consciousness becomes enlightened again, and a change is destined to come.  The song with that theme comes from Levi, and it’s called “Make Peace.”  

Levi - Make Peace

Levi and I met today, and I can tell you he is a humble man who is not looking for stage fame, instead he is looking to influence the world to make a change.  As he said “we can’t do it alone, but we can do it together.”  He is from Toronto and travels to Los Angeles regularly as he is one of the most sought after song writers for some of the best artists in the world.  He is so good, a few of his songs have held residence on the billboard and top 100 charts.  Why am I telling you this?  Levi is not looking for fame, he is looking to create peace … he needs you to play this song on the radio, to play it on mixtapes and to talk about it on social media, that’s why I’m talking about this!

The timing of the release tells you how in sync he is with the global vibration in need of Love and not war.  A Malaysian Airlines plane was recently shot down by a rocket (as reported in the news).  Imagine if that young soldier heard these lyrics before he pulled that trigger:  “you know we can’t go on like this / we should be standing together / one love one fist / cause we all be the same / but together / we can be the change / cause killing the youths is not the answer / we need to find the cure to this cancer / and leave it in the hands of the almighty Jah….”  The message is simple, stop killing and start loving one another.  #YesJah!

When you play this song, or recommend this song, please tweet Levi the writer @levisingit and @rastaleeves which is Levi’s Alter Ego (the artist)!  Let’s “Make Peace!”

Fast Fact:  Levi’s album #AlterEgo will be out in 2015!

Vibes and Ting ►►► Busy Signal – Here & Now!

In 1989, Luther Vandross (rest in peace), teamed with David L. Elliot and Terry Steele, and created history with the song “Here and Now.”  That song peaked on the Billboard top 100 chart, and helped to solidify Luther as the man with the golden voice, and the right lyrics whose music would be played forever.  Busy Signal, has now affirmed his placement in that ranking with the release of his song with the same name “Here and Now.”  

Making the song exceptional with a Caribbean twist (as only Busy Signal can), the artist recreates lyrics that are meaningful when he sings:  mih gyal me have you inna mih arms yuh feel so warm just like a comforter / nuh worry bout yuh bread mih gyal because yuh know it dun butta / telling yuh straight I’m not like some bwoy wah make dem tongue stutter / and the least likkle ting dem box yuh dung and tool dem run go fah….”  He goes on to reinforce confidence in his girl, and reassure her that she is #1 and he desires no other.  These are the lyrics that every woman needs from her man!

Musically, you will appreciate the easy juggling between the bass line, top hat and synthesizer which act as the perfect ‘bed’ for Busy to lay his lyrical ‘comforter.’  Whether you’re playing on the radio, for a wedding, a nice Sunday drive in the country, or as part of a mixtape, you cannot go wrong with this chune as a feature.

Broadcasting in amplified sound, and ready to infect the world with its beautiful vibration is Busy Signal and the chune “Here and Now” at the links below!

HOTTT + New! Exco Levi ft. I-Octane - More than a Freind!

The release of the HOTTT new collaboration “More Than a Friend” by Exco Levi and

I-Octane marks a second significant milestone for Exco which is, this is the second time we hear the artist on a Dancehall riddim, and we LOVE it!

Produced by Kheilstone Music, we hear multiple award winner and Dancehall Superstar I-Octane set the pace for the chune by telling fans “mih change mih life for a reason / change it for a cause” in reference to how wicked ‘friends’ can be and why we should be mindful of the fact that we have enemies ‘more than a friend.’

Exco compliments I-Octane’s lyrics by saying “nuh need no new friend round paddee / if yuh nuh family / do nuh call me / say dem real – dem nuh real charg-ee / and dem fuss fih sell yuh out fih front seat ah Audi / dem get me cross like Taliban sadi / and yuh conquer the globe with the turf army….”

Apart from the fact that this recording is a hit record, this record is also historic because of the teaming of Exco and I-Octane.  This is the first major collaboration between a Canadian based artist and an internationally recognized Dancehall / Reggae Superstar.  I-Octane doesn’t collaborate with just anyone, so this is HUGE! 

Enjoy the vibes with Exco Levi and I-Octane, and make sure that you tweet with them when you play their chune on your listening device! >>> @Excolevi | @Realioctane

I'm Going to Party with Sean Paul!

Following the announcement of its first wave of programming unveiled last month, conforming the participation of Marcia Griffiths, Maxi Priest, Sanchez, and Percy Sledge, the Montreal International Reggae Festival is proud to confirm the participation of three other major stars of Jamaican music:  Sean Paul, I-Octane and Demarco!

Collin Demarco Edwards embodies a new era of avant-garde artists combining songwriting, music production, recording and live performance.  Over the past five years, Demarco has delivered a solid string of memorable hits, such as “Duppy Know Who Fih Frighten,” “Fallen Soldiers,” “True Friends” and “Show It.”

For the past 2 years in Jamaica, you can see and hear I-Octane everywhere!  The handsome young singer with the sweet warm voice has been recruited as a spokesperson for Digicel, Busta beverages and Guinness beer.  Discovered by brilliant producer Donovan Germaine (Penthouse Records), I-Octane has been touring constantly on the international circuit since the release of his debut album Crying to the Nation (Tads Records) which fuses Roots Reggae and Dancehall.  Fans look forward to the artist performing hit singles “L.O.V.E. Y.O.U,” “Jah, Jah Warrior,” and “Mama!”  This will be the artists’ first appearance at the Montreal International Reggae Festival and it is one not to be missed!

Headlining the festival this year is none other than Sean Paul!  Saturday evening will experience Full Frequency along the lines of the energy experienced in the artists 6^th syudio album of the same name!  Blending Jamaican and Caribbean culture with a splash of pop, cross over hits such as “Other Side of Love,” “Entertainment” and “Want Dem All” will have fans rocking in unison!  Montreal is about to get LOUD!

In addition to live entertainment, Montreal International Reggae Festival hosts an innovative series of workshops and conferences at O Patro Vys on August 12, 13 and 14.  The programming, complete schedule of events, as well as confirmations of additional performers and headliners will be announced at a press conference on July 14^th, 2014.
