Recording artiste and songwriter Bugle easily stands out in the very crowded dancehall fraternity. With timeless lyrics and songs that play on the emotions of listeners, Bugle’s catalogue isn’t one that can be easily dismissed. One of the frontrunners of the DASECA Production label, Bugle’s soulful voice has been on fixture on the airwaves since 2007. Born Roy Thompson, he was introduced to music from an early age by his now deceased brother. However it was in 2000 that would begin his professional journey when he met international dancehall artiste Elephant Man where he would later pen a number of hits for the self styled Energy God.
Said Bugle “I got my musical exposure touring with Elephant Man. At first I started traveling to the Caribbean and then the United States where I made an appearance on BET’s 106 and Park show, as well as the BET Awards among other places.” Being the man behind the music however wasn’t enough for the ambitious singer who in 2007 was introduced to singer/producer Serani from DASECA. “Serani told me that he wanted to do some work with me, but he didn’t want to give me the idea. So I went out and thought about it and came back with the idea for Exercise and the rest is history.” The socially conscious Exercise (What I’m Gonna Do) became a massive hit and topped the charts in Jamaica, New York, South Florida and many other Caribbean countries. The song not only showed off Bugle’s writing abilities but his melodious and deep voice. From there the hits flowed like a river.
Songs including Doh featuring Serani, Love Reigns featuring reggae singer Tarrus Riley, What Have I Done to You, Journey, Supremacy, Scotch Bonnet, Pearly Gates and Summer Break featuring Chevaughn and Razz and Biggy kept Bugle’s name on the musical radar for an extended period. Apart from the Daseca production team, Bugle has worked with a number of producers including TJ Records, Chimney, CR203, Notice, and Frass Records among others. Performance wise, Bugle has toured Japan, the United States, Europe and the Caribbean.
He has performed at some of the biggest reggae music festivals including Jamaica’s Reggae Sumfest and Sting. Some of his most recent recordings include There For You for DJ Frass, Streets for Notice Productions, Loving Memory for Troyton Music, and It Mek Yuh Get Richer on DASECA’s ‘Exodus’ rhythm. “I have lots of music working on right now, the greatest challenge for me is that because of the fact that I'm doing real deep music, sometimes I don't get justice but hard work over comes all difficulties so I’ll continue to do good music and work hard.”
Bugle is currently being managed by Daseca and Major Links Entertainment out of the United States. In the summer of 2012 Bugle released a mix tape entitled Psalms. The project featured 43 tracks and is a journey through the artiste’s decorated career. Commenting on the mix tape, Bugle said ‘I think Psalms is one of the most informative chapters of the Bible so based on the content of this mix tape, I chose the word Psalms as the title”.
The mix tape was produced by Sean ‘Razz’ Cousley from the turntable/selecting duo of Razz and Biggy. Among those who appear on Psalms are Dillinger, Etana, Vybrant, Jahmiel, Proppa Fade, Ding Dong, Blak Diamond and Oriel.
In the wake of the mix tape, Bugle has been quite busy working with some of the top producers of the day including TJ Records, Daseca Productions, CR203 Productions, Notice Production, Romeich Records, UIM Records and Frass Records. Among his recent singles are Jah Be with You, Life Span, Only Human Live My Dream, and Rave til a Morning.

DELOREAN BIOGRAPHY

Ever seen someone who just looks like a star? What does a “star” even look like? Obviously something like 27 year old singer/songwriter DeLorean, People constantly stop him in public and tell him so. “What do you do?” they ask emphatically. Simply put, he was born to make great music; Although he’s been singing since he could talk, DeLorean has evolved into the complete musician he is today. He has cleared a lane for himself, honing his singing & songwriting skills and working on his own independent record companies Swagga Boyz Entertainment & Get It Grew.

Chicago, IL bred singer, songwriter DeLorean is quickly establishing his brand in the areas of business and music. Rarely does an entertainer experience success in business prior to being discovered, and without the usual prerequisites of celebrity parents or being groomed to do so. Since his early childhood DeLorean's had star quality. He exudes swagger and his facial expression says cheese even before he flashes his million dollar smile. He possesses the “it factor” that’s so hard to define but one word that encompasses his aura is greatness.

As a kid he admired R.Kelly, so by listening to him at an early age ignited a fire in DeLorean and he soon

discovered his own ability to reach people through song. We all know, or have seen, someone so gifted they can play instruments by ear and naturally sing on key. The only challenge that remains is sharpening their skills and learning the business, and the sky is the limit. DeLorean has accomplished both feats with no formal training. He began singing at 11 years old as just a hobby, but once he left chicago's greenline train at age 12 with $40 after singing for the first time publicly it became evident he was a special talent. While attending high school, working and trying to making it out of chicago's westside streets, he launched Swagga Boyz Entertainment (www.swaggaboyzentertainment.com) and has since accumulated more than some major artists in the same amount of time. Since then he has trained his mind and body for that purpose; rising before the sun to run, workout, and rehearse before rushing off to class. Staying fit and drug free helps him maintain his focus, leaving no time for anything not in harmony with his goal.

VYBZ KARTEL NOT GUILTY – ONE YEAR LATER

Last year , family, friends and fans of Adidja Palmer sat nervously waiting for a verdict in the then alleged murder of Barrington “Bossie” Burton. Objectively, anyone with a fourth grade education would have seen right through the Prosecution’s case and appreciated the judge’s wisdom in instructing the jury to come back with the verdict, the only sensible verdict; not guilty. However, there was a collective fear in every inner city that the presiding judge would not do the right thing, the brave thing and set the man who the status quo bourgeoisie Jamaica loves to hate, free, based on evidence or more accurately, lack thereof. Thankfully, the learned judge Bryan Sykes, did the right thing and an innocent man and his co-accused did not get unfairly sentenced; instead he was justly freed because the learned judge stood up for the law and did not give in to the powers that be who wanted to lock up Kartel and throw away the key without evidence. Unfortunately, society was to get another shot later in that year and many suspected regardless of the evidence or circumstances; many people feared that Vybz Kartel was going to pay for his music and for the influence he had on the poor people of Jamaica. Historically, only politicians have had that influence in Jamaica and any musician that challenged that power ended up dead or in trouble with the law – that is not an opinion, that is a historical fact. Fast forward, one year today. In the view of many, another judge did not do the right thing in the next trial and allowed obviously tampered evidence to be utilized to convict the same man. It became the sentiment in the inner cities of Jamaica that it just “had to go so because a Kartel.” Despite tampered evidence, despite missing evidence, despite the master CD (the only authentic piece of evidence that could validate the phone evidence) being mysteriously missing, despite the missing notebook of the lead arresting officer, despite the missing pages from witnesses’ statements, despite the DNA being negative, despite conflicting timelines, despite absent witnesses, despite no body, despite no murder weapon, despite the crime scene being left unsecured for days by the police, despite not even confirmation that Clive Williams is deceased, Adidja Palmer had to go to jail so society could get rid of him for the murder of a man who no one on the planet can show conclusive evidence that he is indeed dead. Yes, this happened, not in a KKK controlled courtroom to a black man in Jim Crow’s racist Mississippi in the 1960s but to a born Jamaican in Kingston, Jamaica in March 2014 in the plain view of the judiciary, human rights groups and the church who all said or did nothing.Read More: http://dancehallarena.com/vybz-kartel-guilty-one-year-later/

LIL' FLIP BIOGRAPHY

Lil' Flip, born Wesley Weston, hails from Cloverland, a community south of Houston that boasts a strong hip-hop contingent. The boy had a natural feel for language and rhyme; those around him were amazed by his impromptu rapid-fire verses. He attracted the attention of mix tape master DJ Screw, eventually joining his Screwed Up Click rhyming posse. The Texas native instantly won the respect of rappers across the Dirty South.

Weston could "flip styles" masterfully on Screw's mix tapes, earning both his artist name and the title of "Freestyle King." After being but a mere footnote on regional albums, Lil' Flip teamed up with concert promoter Duane "Humpty Hump" Hobbs and formed the indie label Sucka Free Records, immediately releasing the group effort Hustlaz Stackin' Endz in 1998.

lil' flip drops the leprechaun

Word of mouth alone helped the group sell 27,000 copies, just what Flip needed to go on a bold solo project. The Leprechaun sold over 100,000 copies in 2000, thanks to the smash single "I Can Do Dat."

Satisfied with his debut, Lil' Flip went back to honing his mixing skills, picking up where Screw left off after his untimely death. Flip put together no less than 10 mix CDs, each selling about 30,000 units.

lil' flip joins columbia records

Lil' Flip had the attention of those in the know, including the big labels. Columbia Records saw in him a big seller, and

bid the highest amount to acquire Sucka Free. Now he could tour as much as he wanted, his reputation spreading as far as Chicago and Detroit. But months before putting out his first major label album, Flip took some bullets to his side during a Houston drive-by.

lil' flip is an undaground legend

It was almost miraculous; Flip not only survived, he was released from the hospital the next day. Good thing,

because it was platinum time for the Texas rapper. Undaground Legend, his second solo album, surpassed the million mark and made it onto Billboard's Top 200 (at No. 12) and the hip-hop/R&B charts (at No. 4), thanks to hits like "The Way We Ball."

That was it for Lil' Flip; he no longer needed other rappers' names to be noticed. He was the name. His presence on David Banner's Mississippi: The Album helped shoot it to "smash hit" status, especially with the single "Like A Pimp."

flip releases u gotta feel me

In March 2004, Lil' Flip cemented his spot in hip-hop royalty with his third release, U Gotta Feel Me, abetted by appearances by Ludacris and Cam'ron. "Game Over" is a bouncing club groove with skillful sampling of sounds from Pac-Man games, "Sunshine" is a breezy summer track, and "Bring Da Pain" (a.k.a. "I Came To Bring the Pain") gets the crowd rowdy thanks to its fast beats and orchestral rhythms.

The album made it to platinum status in August, its success prompting EA Sports to use the groove "What's My Name" on NFL Street. Another Flip track, "I'm The Greatest Player," is featured on PS2's NBA Live 2004.

lil' flip enjoys some lucky nites

Today Flip is delving into the business side of music, founding his own label Clover G Records and releasing a pineapple-flavored liquor called Lucky Nites. Flip describes the drink by saying, "It tastes like an Amaretto Sour, but it's way stronger than that sh*t."

TOMMY LEE SPARTA BIOGRAPHY

Born in Montego Bay, Jamaica as Leroy Russell he first gathered inspiration to become a musician at an early age. While a student at Anchovy High school he performed at many gatherings there, as well as in his community, Flankers. He was strongly motivated by his home crowd to pursue a career as a professional in music. He took their advice and proceeded to record his first song, Spartan Story at Snipa studios in Flankers. He became a staple at the studio recording several tracks, Sparta Out At Night, Mama Mi Love You, Father Save Them Soul, Still Live On and his
break out hit, Warn Dem. The songs became well known and subsequently he became a household name in his local environs and was a prominent performer on stage shows throughout Western Jamaica.
Popular deejay Vybz Kartel noticed his talent during a performance in Montego Bay. Impressed by the budding star, it didn’t take long for him to initiate Tommy Lee a few months later. In March 2010 he became an official member of the Portmore Empire (Gaza).  He then recorded his first tunes under the teacher’s guidance: Holding Out The Pressure on the Gangsta City Riddim, Gypsy on the Teeza riddim and Money make Friends. His first major performance was at Reggae Sumfest 2011 alongside headliner, Vybz

Kartel and other Gaza members.
Tommy Lee Sparta broke out on his own at popular Reggae festival Sting, this was his first major solo performance. In 2012 his prominence in mainstream dancehall raised as he ga
ined his first number one record in the island. The hit song, Some Bwoy (link Pon Chain) climbed up to the top of the charts, making him the most anticipated new act for Reggae Sumfest 2012. He solidified himself as the break out act of the year leaving Sumfest with one of the best performances of the event.  He made another mark with, Psycho shooting straight to the top of the charts.The Olympic fever persuaded Tommy Lee Sparta to rerecord both of his chart toppers in honor of Jamaica’s Olympic team and track superstar, Usain Bolt. The remixes sparked immense attention and became unofficial sound tracks for Team Jamaica supporters.
Tommy Lee Sparta looks forward to taking Dancehall music to the pinnacle of the international stage by way of his versatility. His music is strongly influenced by different genres: reggae, dancehall, Hip Hop, Pop and rock. Artistes that have inspired him are: Vybz Kartel, Michael Jackson and Bob Marley among others. Many describe his style of music as Gothic dancehall. His lyrics and unique sounds are startling different and is grabbing the attention of many on his journey to success.

DANCEHALL IS IN JAIL

Seen that dancehall icon,Vybz Kartel, will be locked away  for a very long time, can dancehall provide his image in another body?

A new breed of dancehall artists are popping that are changing up their images to look strikingly similar to the Worl’Boss.

In recent weeks artists such as Alkaline and Gage are being accused of bootlegging Kartel’s look. But some artists are even pushing the controversy boundary even further in their lyrics.

A close source to the self proclaimed Worl’Boss told Urban Islandz that he is aware of what has been happening and is far from happy.

“This only prove Kartel’s point that dancehall is in jail because these new kids are just basically trying to be him, instead of be original,” the source told us.

“I spoke with him about it and I can tell you for sure that he is not happy,” the source added. “Addi told me straight up ‘no one can be me or replace me.’”

Dancehall artist Gage has been getting some backlash for Kartel’s fans this week after he uploaded some new photos of himself on Instagram looking a lot like the former Portmore Empire boss.

Last year Vybz Kartel made a controversial statement that “dancehall is in jail.” He drew a lot of backlash from critics but his huge fan base sided with him.

“Dancehall is in jail,” Vybz Kartel said. “And although the fact remains that if I die tomorrow, dancehall will continue, it’s also a fact that the next artiste to bring the energy, panache, and ‘vybz’ to dancehall, isn’t here yet.”

The embattled dancehall star justified his statement by saying reggae music has been on a decline since his incarceration in 2011.

“Look for yourself,” Kartel added. “Since I’ve been in jail, reggae has taken over because it’s a refreshing alternative to dancehall for the young kids who realise the artistes of dancehall are just recycling Kartel lyrics and flow. It’s pathetic.”

Vybz Kartel was convicted of murder in February and sentenced to life imprisonment. he will become eligible for parole in 35 years.

SPICE (JAMAICAN ARTIST) - BIOGRAPHY

Grace "Spice" Hamilton has been dominating the dancehall world since her arrival in 2000 on the stage of Sting. From then till now it is clear, Spice has never been phased by controversy, war, propaganda and the ever changing music business. She declared her position as Princess of Dancehall and has certainly held on tight to her tiara. Spice is known for her witty, controversial, lethal lyrics, lyrical war, talking whatever is on her mind "TALK DI TINGS DEM" and undeniable sexiness.

Spice hails from the Old Braeton community in St. Catherine Jamaica. Although she loved music, early on,

Spice never had plans on a career in music. At the time she was too busy focusing on school. In fact, Spice graduated fifth form with all of eight subjects. With a career in chartered accounting in mind and plans to go on to sixth form, at some point, Spice decided she would much rather focus on a music career. She then enrolled in Edna Manley School for the Visual and Performing Arts to do voice and drama.

Her big break came in 1999 when she appeared on a show Nuffy had on JACS cable titled "Many Moods of Nuffy". The feedback from her appearance was both positive and pleasingly overwhelming. Her friends convinced her that this was her calling. And she answered the call. Spice quickly went from singing to deejaying.

In 2000 Heavy D from Supreme Promotions caught a glimpse of Spice deejaying and didn't hesitate to give her the opportunity to perform at Sting 2000. That was a career defining moment for the deejay.

 

A few years later, 2002, Spice toured England with Ward 21 and Baby Cham. Without even a hit record, Spice captured and amazed the fans and earned the respect of Baby Cham. Unfortunately for Spice, she did not have the links to establish herself as the talented deejay she was. Baby Cham later introduced her to Dave Kelly when they returned to Jamaica. She went on to release her first single on the Mad House label, ‘Mi Gone’ on the Pretty Pretty rhythm which did well both locally and overseas. That same year she returned to the Sting stage taking on Elephant Man in the prime of his career with a performance could not be challenged as anything less than a complete TAKEOVER!

Spice went on to later record other songs for Dave Kelly. One of her biggest hits "Fight Over Man" created a rave in the dancehall, and left her permanent mark as the reining Princess of Dancehall.
Spice has went on to clash many other artist on Sting such as Beenie Man, as well has recording many other songs and collaborations with many artist such as Missy Elliot, Maya, Pamputae, Vybz Kartel, Tifa and more.

Currently Spice has found herself in the middle of a war of words from Sting 2012 where she was scheduled to clash Macka Diamond, however Macka Diamond did not show up for the show. She then was accused of making a diss song with Tifa aimed at fellow artist Lady Saw. However, despite the controversy Spice is remaining on top of her game. She has a hit song "Why You Mad?" ft Tifa, still operates her store, Spicey Couture where she sells woman clothes, shoes and accessories. She is a proud mother, still touring, still writing, and expanding her brand. It's clear we have seen greatness but the best is still yet to come from Grace Spice Hamilton. Check out her latest single "Suh Tight"

2014 BRINGS MORE NICE THINGS TO THE TABLE FOR SPICE with tighjt tunes like Me like it, Like a man and Conjugal Rights ft Vybz Kartel Spice is indeed the artist to watch

TENZA UK BASED BORN JAMAICA

Hailing from Kempshot of Montego Bay Jamaica, Tenza A.K.A The Bosslady is a musical angel in disguise. Born and raised in a family of fifteen, which consisted of nine brothers and Five sisters, she grew up in a life of struggle and disappointment so she certainly knows how to appreciate all of her blessings that she has been given and her musical talent was definitely one of those blessings not taken for granted.


Tenza left Jamaica when she was only fourteen to reside in the UK, in the town of Slough. For Tenza it was a difficult time, leaving all her friends and family, and begins a whole new life in England. At first, she found it hard adjusting to the new culture especially in school.

Tenza then felt at home as she now found her joy, which is music.,  Tenza started attending dance classes, singing classes and entering competitions, put on my the slough youth centre.

Tenza has always retained a strong passion for Dancehall and Reggae; music that was so prominent in her life. Living the life she lived back in Jamaica, it was the empowering and highly uplifting sounds of Bob Marley, Yellow Man, Beres Hammond, Bounty Killer, Denis Brown, Lady Saw, Super Cat and Beenie Man that kept her faith and hope strong throughout all these years to make it and become what she has become today.
Overcoming many obstacles, Tenza’s skills had created an opportunity for her to become a member the electric trio ‘Fya’ - the formerly Def Jam signed female dancehall group. ‘Too Hot’ and ‘Must Be Love’ being a couple of the many hits Gold selling ‘Fya’ released.



Since Tenza departed from the group FYAin 2009, Tenza as being working very hard on her solo career, where she as set up her own record label “ TMD Records” for Tenza this was the most important decision she have ever had to made as she as being approached on countless of occasion by major labels, but have turned the offers down to focus on her own label.

Since the start of her label Tenza released three solo studio albums “ Ready Back” “Wicked Like Me” and  “ Pon Dem Endz Again” to go with a number of Eps, and two official promotional mixtapes.   In Spite of all this Tenza as been working vigorously day and night in the studio to complete her 4th studio album, the album which will be featuring a number of productions from Tenza’s own TMD Records, Tenza has not only been working with top European producers but top Jamaican producers as well, as she pushes her career as a solo career as a sing-jay in the music industry, so far Tenza has been getting heavily air play on a number of Internet, FM and digital radios and also feature and a number of mixed tape and other compilation Cd's around the world.

 Tenza has surrounded herself with positive group of people who have been pushing countless promotions in there bit to get Tenza message across to the world, Even though her most of her tracks as being hold radios in submission world wide, Tenza still continue to work hard to master her craft as an recordings artist.

Tenza as an recording artist have complete several musical tours across the world in countries such as India, Japan, Malaysia, Sweden, Austria, Gambia and Uganda to name a few, and have received several awards including the CMA award for best International cross over artist.  Tenza have also being doing a number of work for charities including Sue Ryder Midnight all female 10km walk, a proud sponsors of Buckingham All-age school in her native Jamaica, Tenza Fan Club in Brikarma Gambia and Also the Brikarma Health Centre of which she being name goodwill ambassador.

VYBZ KARTEL BREAKS OUT OF PRISON !!!

Reports from Jamaica indicate that Vybz Kartel has broken out of prison during an armed raid.

Vybz Kartel is one of the most important figures in Jamaican dancehall, an artist who is recognisable not only to those in the scene but also those outside it's close knit network of soundsystems.

Gathering an international profile, the dancehall world was shocked when Vybz Kartel was arrested last month and charged with the murder of a promoter. Now it seems that the performer has broken out of prison following a late night firefight with guards. (via The Hype Mag)

Reports are still sketchy, but news services in Jamaica are reporting that an armed battle broke late last night (November 29th) at Horizon Adult Remand Centre on Spanish Town Road, Kingston.

The escape involved a large group of prisoners, who used guns smuggled into the complex. Vybz Kartel was apparently involved in holding guards at gunpoint, with several prisoners swapping clothes with the guards and seizing car keys to aid their escape.

At around 1:45am last night the prisoners made their escape, using a prison maintenance pickup-truck to leave the complex.

Vybz Kartel is thought to be missing from the institution, along with seven other prisoners. At things currently stand, this would be the largest single break out in the history of the Jamaican prison system.

Two guards were injured during the escape, while one is thought to have died of a heart attack during the struggle.

More news at it comes in.
UPDATE
Sadly, it was too good to be true. The story was a hoax, and Vybz Kartel is currently serving out his sentence. Watch out for the new Addi innocent 2014 Guest house Mixtape By deejay bluemoon (We Miss you Addi)

Hope Uganda's Fashion Industry changes for the best, where bloggers and tabloids stop finding ways to pull down fashioners, where, models and Agencies stop throwing blames at each other and work as a team, where photographers stop sharing models picture before seeking permission of the said model, where the market stops sharing private pics of models or any other involved party, Where fashion event and organizers and Modeling Agencies stop holding fashion shows in clubs (Makes no sence at all) Where, models pose in bikinis at 12pm in club, where modeling managers and promoters stop taking advantage of their models, Where models understand that modeling is a career and not a partime job and actually research on fashion. (If you are beautiful or tall doesnt make you a model) (not every model was meant for the runway) Where people speak the truth and corporate companies respect the agencies policies. Ooh how we wait" - Deejay Bluemoon
