Ms Triniti - For the Love of the Dancehall

Dave — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 20:31:29 +0000

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?

Bob Marley - Turn Your Lights Down Low

I love this video remake of Bob Marley’s hit from the Exodus album. Turn Your Lights Down Low features his son Stephen as well as R&B/Soul Sing Lauren Hill. This video is bring and colorful and reminds me of those good days when nothing went wrong.

Beenie Man - Girls

Dave — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 20:25:44 +0000

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

Dave — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 20:23:09 +0000

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”.
