Jah Cure Dials In with "Telephone Love!"

Before you jump to any conclusions, let me tell you that “Telephone Love” is not a cover of the hit single by Shabba Ranks and JC Lodge, BUT, Jah Cure’s song is an original HIT single.

This soon to be certified platinum single by Caribbean standards, combined a few key ingredients to make the song as great as it is.  First, Jah Cure teamed with his own Iyah Cure Records family to get the right sound.  Second, he consulted with his bag of lyrics to create the right word sequence.  Third, he tested the song with a few key DJs, one of which being New York’s infamous Pee-Wee, and voila, we have a hit … which is the first of 3 exclusive singles coming our way!

The artist sings:  “good morning / if you’re not with me then I’m calling / I need to know where you are / I would go anywhere you are / good morning / you know I’m tired of the calling / baby I need you cause I’m morning / right now I’d travel to the stars….”

Musically, you will love the roll of the drum at the intro of the song, the announcement of the horn section, and the sweet flow of the bass.  If you’re into music on a deeper level, you will LOVE the bridge, and you will love the saxophone playing authentic RnB which transitions in to Dubwise.  This record tho … Mercy! 

Family, we have a hit chune.  From Jamaica Avenue in Queens, to Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, to Eglinton Ave West in Toronto, to Askew Rd in London, to every road and avenue in Jamaica and around the world.

Reggae Star Hezron Hails a “Taxi Driver” to Take Him Home!

Imagine a great love story playing out in song.  We’re introduced to the characters, the plot and the imagery, and then gradually we’re introduced to the outcome.  Imagine all of this being performed by world class Reggae Star, Hezron!

Hezron’s new single “Taxi Driver” is a love story about a man / performing artist who has been on tour for months, and is eager to get home to his baby.  Taken from his album Life I Live (Soulful Salvation), the artist soulfully sings “taxi driver / tale me to my baby now / hey driver / take I just gotta get home / to her / so far away / but it feels so close / texting each other – who loves who the most / still I wish I was home ….”

Produced by Stone Love Productions, this Lover’s Rock track is perfect for your YouTube playlist!

Rico Vibes from Atlanta’s Da Flava Radio gives this song a thumbs all the way up as does Sunsplash Media’s Selecta Princess and Jah Prince, and Jamaica’s Irie FM.  They all say that Hezron is the Lionel Richie of Lover’s Rock and Reggae - and now we need you to agree too!  Make sure you leave your comments under the video!

Kent Jones ft. Froggy MaddSquad - I Don't Mind Remix

Yoooooooooooooooo!  Imagine a collaboration between We The Best Recording Artist Kent Jones and Real Squad Records recording artist Froggy MaddSquad.  If you can imagine that, then you can already hear the remix to “I Don’t Mind!”

Both artists are from the Sunshine State, and both artists are hot like yaaaaaz, so it’s only natural that Froggy drop these lyrics:  “so mih take her to Jamaica / and carry her on the beach and give her my jelly water / from last night in the club it’s the only thing she ask for / so me bless up ting just like a pastor.”  K-A-B-O-O-M!

Kent comes in with the catchy hook “you keep telling me this / and telling me that / you say once you take me with you I’d never go back / now I got a lesson / that I gotta teach / I’m a show you that where you from don’t matter to me…”

The way you love this remix, you are going to demand a music video – it’s that good – and a perfect balance of Yankee and Yardie vibes!
