Ms Triniti - For the Love of the Dancehall

Monday, June 30th, 2008

This video by Ms. Triniti is kinda hot. Its nothing new that we haven’t seen before but she does do a good job of showcasing some of the island and show some good beach shots. I’m not sure if she’s Jamaican or not because her accent sounds a little put on. What do you guys think?

Beenie’s new hit, “Girls” is produced by R&B/Hip Hop hit maker, Akon. The video is reminiscent of just about all of Beenie’s songs from years past. Its nothing new that we haven’t seen before. I guess it does its job of providing the men with “eye candy”.

Shaggy - Church Heathen

Monday, June 9th, 2008

I don’t know how I feel about Shaggy’s new hit, “Church Heathen”. I’m not sure if Shaggy has reformed and is going to be making “less slack” music but I feel like this song is putting down everything that he did before. He made the kind of music that he’s criticizing in the song. So let me know your thoughts on Shaggy’s “Church Heathen”.
