PLAYLIST: KUSH MORNING RIDDIM MIX - VARIOUS ARTISTS


I love this riddim along with every song on it.  Thank you for DJ Kenny's Culture Mix that put me on to it.  For a matter of fact, that whole DJ Kenny mix was hot, so if you want to download it, click here!

I think this riddim brought out the best in my favorite artists.  Jah Vinci's "Real Woman" and I Octane's "Run Me Out" are great songs, I just can't stop playing them.  Then there is Capleton in "Fire Fire", I just love how he mix it up with some singing and a little bit of DJ'ing.  But let's not forget Ikaya in "Brand New"!! I couldn't get enough of this song, it reminds me dat mi nuh need NO BADMIND people 'round me!!  I'm just living my life like it's DECEMBER 25!!

PLAYLIST: SPRAGGA BENZ & SEAN PAUL - CALL UP ON JAH JAH [OFFICIAL VIDEO]


The highly anticipated release is finally here!!  Check out Spragga Benz and Sean Paul as they premiere the video for their hit single, "Call Up On Jah Jah"!

Each and everyday, the Most High should be the first person you speak to when you wake and the last one to you talk to before you go to sleep at night.

Too many of us put MAN before the LORD.  Some people can't go one night without talking to their man/woman but can go a week without praising the most high.  Not acceptable!!!!

Jah Almighty knows what's in our hearts and touching base with him only when you're in the midst of a crisis is not enough.

Tell dem Spragga,  Ah meditation time!!

PLAYLIST: CAPLETON AND YAMI BOLO - PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON

YAMI BOLO





I remember this song from back in the days and I've loved it ever since.  Capleton alongside Yami Bolo is a great combination.  I don't hear too much from Yami Bolo these days but the message is clear... and always have been.

They've been singing the message for a while but I don't see much of a difference from the way things were to the way things are now.  Everyday we talk about how things have gotten worse, the crime rate, the spread of disease, the death toll, the economy, the environment, the politicians, the corruption and the list goes on and on.

We hear about it on the news, we talk about it to each other but what has changed?  We pray for a better tomorrow but when will tomorrow arrive?

Now that we have spread the word, now that we know what needs to be done, whose turn is it to put in the hard labor?

It was a gun that killed Trayvon Martin, a gun that assassinated Martin Luther King Jr.  It is the sound of a gun that I hear through my apartment window. I'm tired of the real life horror stories.  The ones where babies are shot, by mistake.  The ones where our local small businesses are robbed at gunpoint.  The ones where our soldiers don't make it back home to their families.

We see it so often in the movies that we've become numb to the reality, but this is real.  This is the story of our lives.

MIXTAPE DOWNLOAD: FIRESQUAD REGGAE PARADISE CULTURE MIX - SPRING 2012


Spring is in the air!!!  Aside from allergies, Spring is surely becoming my favorite season.

As the warm weather creeps up on us, I'll be watching the flowers bloom while burning a spliff and listening to tunes from my reggae favorites like Lutan Fyah, Beres Hammond, Capleton, I Octane, Bugle, and so much more.

All I need now is a hammock and a cool glass of rum punch to make my meditation session complete.  Yes, I take my relaxation seriously...... and you should too!  There's too much stressors in this world and I prefer to wake up 50 years from today feeling (and looking) forever young.

So here's my suggestion, download this mix, cut off everything and everyone that stresses you, turn off your phone and spend the next hour and a half listening to the sweet melody of real reggae music.

This one is called Reggae Paradise for a reason!!

Click here to download!!  Hint: Look for the light blue box that says, "Click here to start download from sendspace."

LIVE PERFORMANCE FROM KONSHENS AT THE WATER PARTY IN NEW KINGSTON - APRIL 14


Konshens is making massive strides within the industry.  When he first started out he made it clear that he was meant to be a "Winner", and a champion in his field.  With hard work, great talent and determination, his dream and passion is coming into fruition.

Right now, he is one of the hottest acts on the scene.  Definintely one of the most sought after musicians to be listed on any upcoming lineup of stage shows, concerts and special appearances.  Whenever his songs are played on the radio or in the clubs, girls can't stop gyrating their bodies, especially when they hear tunes like, "Gyal A Bubble" or my favorite, "Bad Gal"!

But his talent doesn't just stop at music, it was recently released that Konshens revealed his latest project which is a female clothing line called, Oh'K which shows his diversity as well as his entreprenuer spirit.  Konshens is becoming a household name and the journey has just begun!!

RAGASHANTI IS NOW ON LINKUP RADIO IN NYC - 93.5 FM TING TUN UP!!!


TAMBAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!!

Ragashanti is one radio host who nuh fraid fi talk up di tings and starting today (April 16th) he will be on NYC airwaves!

After a collaboration with Linkup Radio, the King of Mixup will be highlighting our mornings from 6-10am on 93.5 FM.    Even if you're not located in New York City, you can still catch the live streaming on their website, www.LinkUpRadio.com !

It's no surprise that the name Ragashanti is synonymous with controversy.   Not everyday will you find a radio host who will keep it real, it's the key ingredient that keep listeners coming back for more so expect Linkup Radio ratings to soar through the roof with "Drive Time With Ragashanti Live" taking the lead.

I'm going to start waking up earlier just so that I can hear RAGASHANTI in the mornings because only on his show can you hear almshouse like this:

IS BRITAIN BOOTLEGGING PICKAPEPPA SAUCE??


Yes, ladies and gentleman.  It's THAT GOOD!!

Here is just another example of how the creations of our fellow Jamaicans are extorted and reproduced for the masses!  I'm kind of kidding when I say this, but in reality, it's true.

When the food firm WANIS lost their rights to import the delicious pickapeppa sauce they thought outside of the box by recreating their own version of the recipe, printing fake labels and selling about 30,000 bottles of the counterfeit sauce over the course of 16 months throughout Britain.

It wasn't until a devout fan of the sauce complained to Pickapeppa's Jamaican producers about the change in taste, wondering why it seemed sweeter than usual.

Upon investigation, they found WANIS guilty of concocting fraudulent sauce and bottling for resale.  The British food firm was fined over $80,000 pounds ($127,000 USD or $11 million JMD)

Now, I wonder if the authentic producers of the Pickapeppa sauce received damages for their loss...?

VISA COMPLICATIONS PREVENTS BEENIE MAN FROM PERFORMING ON '106TH AND PARK' WITH NICKI MINAJ






There was a big hype going on about Nicki Minaj featuring Beenie Man on her upcoming album "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded".  As part of the promo tour Nicki Minaj is expected to stop by BET's 106th and Park for an exclusive performance alongside Beenie Man's for their hit single, "Gunshot" but there seems to be a glitch!

Unfortunately, Beenie Man will not be able to perform because he does not have a work permit in the United States.  Currently, he is in the US on a visitors visa and would be violating terms if he continued with the performance.  As a result, Beenie Man's management team refuses to put their client at risk.

At this point, it's better safe than sorry so Beenie Man will sit this one out and wait for his work visa to be reinstated.

In the mean time, get familiar with the Nicki Minaj & Beenie Man's latest collaboration entitled, "Gunshot"!

PLAYLIST: ROMAIN VIRGO - I KNOW BETTER (w/LYRICS)


Big up to Romain Virgo who has only one month to go before the official release of his second album entitled, "The System".  This tune, produced by Shane Brown, is called "I Know Better" and will surely take the lead once the official album drops.

The Wickedest Time was able to interview this artist on a rise which gave us a deeper insight on his personality and his road to stardom.  To check out the interview, click here!  I'm proud of his achievement and happy that he's still in the players circle bringing us hits like this one.

Listen to the song and check out the lyrics, I feel it's something that a lot of youth man should pay attention to.  Even though the opportunity is there to do wrong, you need to just recognize that your mother taught you differently and that you have common sense, you know better!
