There’s something kinda dirty about it that makes you feel unclean, even though the person has left themselves wide open for you to take a gander. For you dancehall lurkers, producer Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor might have just the fix. He’s launched a video stream on his website that basically lets you watch while him, Laden, Elephant Man, Chino and bunch of other big name artists make music in the Big Ship studio. I logged on for a minute and heard a new Donia track that sounded awesome… then I felt mad awkward like I just caught my brother getting out of the shower, so I shut it down. For those music nerds that are in constant stalker mode, you can check the peep show here.

Exit 21 Riddim
When a riddim gets dropped with big dancehall names like Demarco, Mr. Lexx, Vybz Kartel and Beenie Man, such as the Exit 21 riddim, it usually gets at least an extended rotation from local Selectors. These days turn over seems quicker then ever. Watching this riddim be pushed to the sidelines has invoked the dancehall […]
