Mr. Vegas - Keep Your Friendship

Since we are talking about friendship, this post is appropriate. I haven't heard much from Vegas recently, but this tune is a solid tune. This tune is off the Unstoppable Riddim.

Konshens - Bring Back the Reggae

This tune is exactly what alot of people are saying about dancehall reggae nowadays. "Nowadays de tune dem a sound like nursery rhyme". In this tune, Konshens pays homage to the greats, including the recent greats like Vybz Kartel and Movado, and talks about how he misses the 90s reggae. There are two versions to this song (dancehall and hip hop). DJs, nice warmup tune for now. It is yet to be determined if it will blow up.

Rare... A.R.P. - Thats The Way I Like It

I really like this riddim and this tune. It's called the Dejavu Riddim. It never seemed to gain popularity, but I always really liked it. There are a couple other good tunes on the riddim, like "Mirror on the wall" and "Bonafied". Take a listen, what do you think?

Calibe ft. N.I.C - Bonafied

Busy Signal - Mi Love Money

What would you do for money? Off the Stainless Riddim,   (June 2009) this tune a bit dated by now, but is still a hype tune with a decent message. DJs, this is a hot or miss at parties, might be a good warmup tune.

Mavado - You a Mi Lover

Time to speed it back up a little with this Mavado tune (another "Di Genius" production). Its a nice combination of dancehall tempo and smooth lyrics. This is the radio edit, as the RAW version is ridiculous :-). DJs, this is also a must have for recent dancehall music.

Mavado - You a Mi Lover

Laden - She Like It

This is one of my favorite tunes of the week. I know a week is a short time, but still, this tune is nice. I am beginning to be really impressed with Stephen "Di Genius" Mcgregor, who produced this track and the last two tracks I have posted. Anyway, take a listen, and tell me what you think in the comment section.

Mavado ft. Genius - Can't Tek We Life

This is a great song. Not a typical dancehall tune, smoother and slower. In fact, its a bit inspirational from Mavado, but still hype. Great listen, but use with caution. Probably a good warmup tune, or if you are playing a culture set.

Smooth Tune!!! Vybz Kartel - Completely

I really like this song. It has a smooth feel to it while still getting the lyrical versatility from the "Gaza Thug". Though its not necessarily a club hit, it is still a great listen. Ofcourse, in typical Kartel fashion, there is a very raw version named "Come Breed Me", but I prefer the radio version.

Vybz Kartel - Completely

RIDDIM: Trippple Bounce Riddim

This entire riddim is really good and very popular. It is upbeat and will work well into any party, or just to listen to on your own. Almost all the songs are hits, especially Vybz Kartel - Bicycle and Tony Matterhorn - Role Out.

MIX CD - Selecta Renegade - Flames 6

The Flames series have been one the most consistently hype CD collection in dancehall music (Flames 4 being my favorite). Selecta Renegade is a master of remixing tunes (hip hop and reggae), while not overloading the CD with mixes. He is also one of the few who has appropriate culture tunes on his CDs. This iteration of "Flames" does not dissappoint. Another plus is that it is a radio edit, but you would never realize it because it is mixed so well. I rate it 9.5 out of 10.
