Busy Signal “HOT HEAD! HOT HEAD!”

HOT HEAD HOT HEAD

HOT HEAD HOT HEAD

Busy Signal had a huge year in 2008 and he is already gaining steam in 2009. The Jamaican deejay has incredible flow and it seems this guy has a million different styles.  Growing up in the notorious Cassava Piece ghetto of Kingston he has come from the “gully side” as he would put it.  Busy has that unmistakeable authenticity to what he is singing about and you cant help but listen when he delivers his verses with bone chilling sincerity.

Check out his sophomore album “Loaded” released in 2008.

Also have a listen to his latest drop on the ‘Can’t Believe It Riddim’———>               Busy Signal – Smoke Some High Grades

And finally I have to drop his massive release on the ‘Baddazz Riddim’——–>         Busy Signal – Hustling

BADDAZZ RIDDIM MIX

The Baddazz Riddim is the latest dancehall creation from Christopher Birch. Some are claiming this riddim to be a re-work of the classic Joyride Riddim.  Re-work or not, this is definitely a dancefloor smasher as the catchy upbeat bassline is just going to make you move, plain and simple.

I put together a 10 minute riddim mix showcasing what I feel are the strongest artists on the riddim.

Frankie Gunns Live @ Thymeless (Jan.20/09)

Frankie Gunns has been a staple in the Toronto Drum and Bass community for well over a decade now.   Few people in the city can rival the selection of vinyl that this man has at his disposal.  As a long time manager of Play De Record (a legendary Toronto record shop) he has an infinite supply of vinyl at his fingertips.  Last week the Dubslingers crew had him roll through Thymeless for an exlusive reggae set.  Gunns brought the heat with his little box of rare 45’s and had the crowd vibing to some sweet classic reggae mixed with a few recent hits.
