SOPHIA BROWN CRYING OUT FOR "CHANGES"


We all know her name and we love to hear her sing, it's Reggae songstress Sophia BrownSophia is making it known in her latest collaboration featuring Ginjah that they are both ready to see some "changes" in our country.  

Even though this is a very emotional song which speaks to the times we are in, it was very easy for Sophia Brown to write mainly because of all the hurt and pain our brothers and sisters are currently experiencing, so she felt a sense of responsibility to represent for them by giving a voice to those who may consider themselves voiceless. 

"There are so many things I would like to see change. The way human beings treat each other is very big on my list. The youths to have better leadership from their home manners is lacking in the way we are raising our children. More jobs for young people, so we don't have to see so many of them rubbing out their hand middle day by day and drinking, feeling like that, is their only solution" Said, Brown.

In addition Brown also had this to say;  "Education needs to be more accessible for the youths the vision of our leaders should be inspired by our young people in mind. Because they will soon become the victim without vision. without proper systems in place for us to overcome the challenges, there will be no changes". 

Sophia Brown wants all her supporters to know that she is back and better than before. Brown took 18 months away from her music as a result of a car accident she experienced back in 2017 "I am ready again to make this work my business my life all over again 
So expect to see the work from me as I am ready to go one hundred %".

"Changes" is now available on all major digital platforms distributed by Zojak worldwide I also have very high hopes for the song reaching international heights. To keep up with Sophia Brown follow her on all her social media platforms.

IT'S A "SPICEY" WORLD

Known for her verbal assaults, on and off the rhythm, the metaphoric genius dominates stages worldwide.

Grace "Spice" Hamilton is a modern female force to be reckoned with. Since her first major hits "So mi like it" and the unforgettable collaboration with Vybz Kartel "Romping Shop", which allowed her to tour the world gaining millions of fans worldwide, out of respect for her hard work and dedication to the dancehall gave away to natural progression dubbing her the new Queen of Dancehall.


She then took dancehall to primetime television joining the cast of the hit reality TV show Love and Hip Hop Atlanta, exposing dancehall to more than 5.3 million viewers per week, as the new Queen of dancehall she has set the bar higher than any before her in this age of new media. Whether you understand the power of new media or not queen Spice does and has been using this power to build an empire.

Grace like others did not come from much; and had to fight through hunger, homelessness,
heartbreak, racism, tragedy and more only to become an alpha entrepreneur rising against all odds. Beaten but, not broken young Grace started selling candies at school which soon became lunch money and taxi fare she even managed to open a small restaurant soon after. Determined to win Grace opened her successful woman's apparel "Spicey Couture" in Kingston in 2009, followed by a sports bar in 2010 in her hometown of Portmore. Just when most thought she was done she used her world visibility to launched her own brand of Moscato (wine) "Sperone".

Never forgetting her people, spice understood the challenges of life; In 2018 she launched the "Grace Hamilton Women Empowerment Foundation". The foundation mission is geared at uplifting young women sharing keys to success, understanding how to see and execute on opportunities through education and grooming them towards success. At the launch of the foundation, she was supported by powerful women from all walks of life. Through the foundation, Spice has already begun to assist a young woman in the goal to attend college.


With success, this diamond in the rough despite all odds has made her name a house whole name with no signs of slowing down.

BUSY SIGNAL THE VOICE OF MEGA BRANDS

From Pepsi to LG major brands are after Busy Signal's vocal samples to sell their product. LG is currently running a major international campaign with Jason Statham that features vocal samples from Busy Signal that is currently connecting with the market and driving sales for the new LG G5 that eating into the Samsung’s Galaxy S7, also convincing the Jamaican market to take a second look at the G5; with data like this that leads directly to the dollar it seems inevitable that Busy Signal will get a shot at mega endorsement deals and with mogul Robert Livingston at his side he is in the right hands. Robert Livingston is best known for Managing the Career of the pop star Shaggy and grossing over $150 million dollars for Universal records.

It’s time to keep an eye out for Busy Signal as he launches into the pop world and support his efforts, with a download of a song, click and view, or simply like a picture on social media. It’s time to show the world that as Jamaican we unite around our musicians and push them up to the stars.

SHOCKING PREGNANCY REVELATION

Amina Buddafly has gracefully confirmed speculation that she is pregnant with Peter Gunz's child, but was this planned to get back at Tara Wallace? who was pregnant at the time when Amina aborted her baby in the middle of season on  VH1 'Love & Hip Hop New York'

While his ex Tara Wallace recently delivered his ninth child almost a month ago, Peter Gunz’s wife, Amina Buddafly felt like it was time to reveal that she is pregnant and Tara Wallace would not be carrying Peter's last child as we all know Peter recently did a vasectomy. This isn’t the first time the ladies would have been pregnant at the same time. Here comes baby number 10...WOW!

Fans of VH1 "Love & Hiphop" have beeing commenting on the issue, pointing fingers saying that Amina got pregnant to get back at Tara, Amina addressed those comments; She wrote, “I Gotpregnant again because I made love to the man I love…Now y’all can debate on why we did it until ya hair turns grey…I feel good knowing that WE know and you just ‘think’ you know…”
She went on to say that a baby is not the answer when it comes to trying to keep her family together.
“This is not a game! This is my life. But No matter what the circumstances were and are, I now feel happy to be expecting again and even happier to know I have the best baby daddy I could ask for. [Peter] I love you 4ever and I will never be scared to show or say it because of people.”

Congratulations to Amina having a baby is a blessing, but with Peters history and how he has treated both Amina and Tara in the past, It is time they start taking better care of themselves.

Canadian Sensation Sielle releases "Easy Mistake" featuring International Superstar Sean Paul



Toronto-based chanteuse, Sielle, has collaborated with Sean Paul on her recent release entitled, Easy Mistake.  Laced under a heavy dancehall crossover rhythm, Sielle's silky voice delivers smooth lyrics, melodies and harmonies.  Interwoven throughout the record, Sean Paul rides the rhythm with catchy hooks and verses. The synergy between Sielle and Sean Paul is a chemistry designed to make a world hit. 

Produced by hit-makers, Matthew “Esco” Thompson; 957 Muzik and Smokin Acez Media, Easy Mistake is an appealing tune that will have the summer buzzing.  The song, written by Sielle, captures a love story based on a couple engulfed in a steamy relationship. Captivated by her man, Sielle wants to make amends. But she must move on, because love becomes a burden.  She knows that loving him is such an easy mistake, yet Sean Paul tries to sway her direction. Easy Mistake is a record that most people can relate to. 

From the age of 5, Sielle has been trained in classical music and attended performing arts schools.  Her passion for music led her to produce, write and perform, honing her own sound.  This has allowed her to claim a presence across different genres of music to include pop, reggae, folk, classical, opera, and R&B. 

Growing up in Little Burgundy, Montreal and being exposed to a plethora of cultures, Sielle is
bilingual and sings in French. She has performed at Nappa Valley’s Bottlerock Festival 2014 and in 2015, where Jim Peterik featured her on hit song Eye of the Tiger.  She also did Montreal Reggae Festival two years in a row, smaller festivals and clubs throughout Canada. Previously released songs, include Little Girl, Change You, Runaway and Together which was penned by the legendary David Pack of Ambrosia.

Although Sielle's sound is characterized as alternative soul; this collaboration has allowed her a chance to tap into her Jamaican roots to deliver a masterpiece.  "I want to touch people with my music, my music is a dairy, what I feel, what I have been feeling throughout my life," explains Sielle with hopes of changing lives through her music.

However, working with Sean Paul on Easy Mistake, has had a major impact on Sielle.  This collaboration has allowed her to go into her Jamaican roots with all of her life's experience as an artist to deliver a masterpiece.  The goal is to propel into the international market that is ready to accept another musical star named Sielle.

Sielle ft Sean Paul now available on Cdbay for download http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/sielle1 follow Sielle on her social media @siellelive

HOW "PUM PUM" SHUT STING DOWN




In tune with tradition Sting unleashes a new comer to open the morning; raring up for the big guns, enter female Dancehall hopeful Starface; at 6:10 Mc Nuffy gives the young artist the million dollar intro as he gave Gully Bop the year before, Starface seem to have no fair in her eyes as she stood backstage ready for her first appearance on the greatest one night reggae show on earth, anyone who understands the Sting brand knows that to take the stage early in the morning the artist has to deliver big, like her predecessors Lady Saw, and Spice. Starface took the crowd with a Christmas remix called "PumPum” bringing the crowd to a roar, then drew for a classic in honor of the Queen Lady Saw called “If the man Lef”, but this time it wasn’t just the crowd screaming for more, as the Police rush to the stage urging the promoters to shut the event down because of the profanity, bring the show to an abort end make history, as Starface becomes the first female act to close the Mega show.

Road Show Ja reached out to Starface “Mr. officer I did not know Sting was a PG event the ticket said 18 and over so I have no clue how my little Pum Pum song shut the show down,  its Sting and the world was watching, I was ready to make my mark, all I know is I have a year to go before Sting 2016 and I will be back with a vengeance. I want to say thank you to Heavy D and Mr. Laing for supporting young talents. I don’t think there is another event in Jamaica where a young artist can leave the stage and get a booking backstage;. So tell the police they hurt the artists, the promoters, and the people by shutting down the show, but don't blame Starface, because you need an excuse”.

Is It time for laws to change, it takes millions of dollars to present major events like Reggae Sting is it fair to the promoters if city officials, can just shut an event down siting their own reasons, we are in a tough economy, and patrons may have saved up for months to enjoy the big event. We believe if this keeps happening eventually a promoter will sue a city for damages from lost revenues and commitments.

We also brought on board Los Angeles Based Smokin Acez Media Consultants who have offices in Jamaica, led by Debbion Smith to present brand Radijah to the world this is not just about music for us and with this team we plan to change how Dancehall makes money forever.

Radijah stated I’m grateful for this once in a life time opportunity, I still can’t believe it. They understand me and are willing to let me grow, this week alone we joined forces with Jay z’s Tidal, which is already making history around the world I can’t wait till it hits Jamaica.
