Gappy Ranks ft Lady Chann - English Money (Cocotaxi Remix) by COCOTAXI

More pon more!

What can I say, tonight was awesome. This was the epic night of the juke and the dancehall and here's a small taste of what was goin on, for all you poor people who missed out:

Elephant man - You a di wife

Lisa Hype - More Pon More
(on the school bell riddim)

Seductive and Sexy...

First of all, I just wanna say, if you dont follow the excellent blog Scare Dem, you should.

And now for the tunes: I've snatched some of the top tunes they've posted over the last month or so, and reblogged them here. Shameless, I know, but I hope they forgive me. It's for a good cause after all.

Beenie Man - Stock & Pile(Mavado Diss)


Vybz Kartel - Seductive & Sexy


Bounty Killer - Corrupt (Raw)

And as a bonus, here's Legobeats superquick DJ friendly refix of Busy Signals bmore-ish banger "I Juss Wanna Fuck":
Busy Signal - I juss wanna fuck Feat. Chi Ching (Legobeat DJfriendly refix)

Blame it on the what?

Ay! It's been a loooong time since I wrote anything here. Why? I guess I can blame it on the goose and the henny...

And since it has fallen onto my lot to post stupid dancehall anthems up in this b, I hereby give you Wayne Marshall, who - of course if you Wayne - blames it on the weed:
Wayne Marshall - Blame It on the Weed

Next time I post I promise I'll post something useful.

EXCLUSIVE!

Do you remember that old episode of Friends when Rachel tries to cook, but by mistake glue two pages of the recipe book together so she makes half a lasagna and half a pancake cake? Everybody, of course, thinks it tastes really awful, except Joey who says something like "What? Pasta - GOOOOD, jam - GOOOOD, meat - GOOOOD, whipped cream - GOOOOD!"

That's kind of how I thought when I made this song. Bmore - GOOOOD, Dancehall - GOOOOD, Airhorns - GOOOOD, Breaks - GOOOD, Baile funk - GOOOOOD, dirty lyrics - GOOOOOD, Ward 21 - GOOOOD!

So there you have it, the world premier and the very first release from our side project LEGOBEAT (check out our myspace also!), an awesome mix of everything we like. Exclusive to all the good readers of DBTY.

Enjoy:

Legobeat - Da Pum Feat. Ward21 (Lenny Drama's favela remix)
(in 320 kbs of course)

Them a look like badman

Yeah. Google keeps deleting my posts and I keep uploading awesome stuff. Cause im a talk like badman, walk like badman ...

Machines Don't Care - Badman (Original mix) (320)

More autotune goodies

hey there, it's been a pretty long time since I posted some dance hall up in here...

Brand new tune from Vybz Kartel featuring Spice. Nice..

Vybz Kartel - Ramping shop Feat. Spice (raw)

Bonus:
Elephant man - Sweep da floor (pop champagne refix)
(Ron Browz cover)

We aint got much time left...

... soon, we'll be sitting at our favourite bar, Reisen, zipping awesome cocktails and just.. feel free...

Ricky Blaze - Feel Free feat. Ron Brownz


You will join us, right?

Whining machine!

Thought about writing something funny here, but instead of making this blog into a diary, telling you all about my most inner feelings when cleaning my appartment, i'll just post the shit you came for:

Mr. Vegas - Whining Machine (Aaron Lacrate & Deboair Samir Delicous Gutter Mix)

Zibbelidongdong!

The summer is short, and if you blink (reading blogs instead of drinking beer outside somewhere..) it might have passed before you know it.. So I continue with Rubens sweet summer tunes:

Alborosie - Kingston Town
Alborosie is, according to last.fm, an italian singer based in Kingston.. hmm..
Anyway, without saying to much, he kind of reminds me of Burro Banton or maybe Damian Marley..

Nanko - Lucky You
I think this was pretty much a one hit wonder - Which doesnt seem to be a unusual thing when it comes to vocoder singers (T-Pain excluded ofcourse)..

Plow! Plow! Plow!

Yesterday was awesome...

Collie Buddz Feat. Bounty Killer - Never snitch!

Whats up?

Hmm, there is a little low activity up in here at the moment..

From the 2007 "Laminated riddim":

Fantan Mojah - Done Dem

We luv the girls!

Seems like the blog has been on some kind of recharge since our spybar blast last friday. Guess I have to take some responsibility and kick start this friday evening with some dance hall-ish soca, or maybe some soca-ish dance hall..

Mr. Evil - We Luv The Girls

Bunji Garlin - Pretty Hot Feat. Mr. Evil

Maximus Dan - Land Dem

All tracks on the wicked Response Riddim...

South Rakkas!

Some years ago, the dudes behind South Rakkas released the Clappas riddim and the clubs in stockholm (at least the ones we managed to sneak into) blew up..

They've continued to release crazy riddims with the same stupid computer voice in the intro.. gotta love it.


Mr. Vegas - Ghetto Pickney Clappas

Sizzla - Smoking Herbs Rah Rah

Beenie Man - Jamaican Style Chinkuzi

Vybz Kartel - Goodas Bionic Ras

Just pick it up and drop it!

How can I post anything after that? V's post where bloody awesome!

Anyway, today im going to have a lot of pretty boring relatives at my place to "celebrate" that i.m now one year older. And one year closer to thirty.. huuuh.. Therefore, I give to you the music I wont be able to listen to. I give to you: Madness Riddim

Elephant Man - 3 Step

Kiprich - Boosie Wine

Sean Paul - Drop it

Throw your hands in the air!

Yeah, its that time of the year again!
We're all out on ham and mustard (yep, thats what swedes eat at christmas), the christmas songs that we have been forced to listen to for the last two weeks are slowly fading out, and left is only one wish.

The wish to know what musical goodies 2007 gave us.

And I really tried, promise. I thought long and hard about it, read others "best of"-lists, even tried to search itunes for "2007" (that didnt work though). But my memory is just to short, I can't even remember what I did five days ago (Oh wait, that was new years eve, theres a whole other reason I dont remember that)so how could I possibly remember all the great stuff (if theres been any?) that I've listened to, and hopefully enjoyed, this year?

That said, kinda like a safebelt so no one can bash me afterwards if I missed anything (im such a wussy) i wont do a descending top-ten list, ill just throw out some big tunes.


BEST ON-YOUR-WAY-HOME-LATE-NIGHT-EARLY-MORNING-KINDA-DRUNK-KINDA-STONED-ALBUM:
Waitin to inhale
Devin the dude
This must probably be album ive listened to most on the whole year. I think. If you(but you shouldnt!) skip to track no 3, The allmighty dollar and then listen thru Hope I Don't Get Sick A Dis (the beat is killing me everytime), What A Job (Feat. Snoop Dogg & Andre 3000) (awesome song, awesome Andre, even awesome Snoop!), and Broccoli and Cheese you probably have heard the tightest start of an album since.. Talib's Quality?
The only thing I wish is for next year everybody will understand how its only annoying and not the least fun with skits on album. Ever. Never.
Broccoli & Cheese


BEST IM-REALLY-IN-FUCKING-PAIN-HERE-(I-MEAN-IT-REALLY-REALLY-HURTS)-SONG:
Do you feel me
Anthony Hamilton
Anthony Hamilton did release an album this year, but his best song is from the American Gangster Soundtrack...
Do you feel me



DANCEHALL ROOKIE OF THE YEAR:
Collie Buddz
Ok, hes been around for more than a year, but his debut album dropped this year. Full of sex, guns and ganja..
Wild Out (Panty)


BEST HIPHOP ALBUM FROM SOMEONE EVERYBODY CALLS "CONCIOUS":
Finding forever
Common
Play your cards right - Bilal, where the fuck are you?

Desire
Pharoahe Monch
Ooh, good one Linus. You make your own categories and still end up with a tie!
Agent Orange - Anybody who rhymes "I threw a rock and I ran" in a song about american war politics is my hero.


MOST THUGGISH DANCEHALL:
Gangsta For Life The Symphony Of David Brooks
If Collie Buddz sings alot about sex, guns and weed, Mavado IS sex, guns and weed. The album is mostly about the first two though. I've posted enough Mavado tracks on this blog allready, but the album is wild so buy it!



BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO SWEDEN THIS YEAR:
Basutbudet & Mapei
The rhymes are awesome. The beats are awesome. The base is awesome. The irony is awesome.
Mapei - Video Vixens (Basutbudet produced it, I think?)


BEST SONG TO END A PARTY (OR A BLOG POST, A WAR, A RELATIONSHIP, A LIFE) WITH:
Paper planes
M.I.A.
When I hear this song, all I wanna do is a ptoosch! ptoosch! ptoosch! and a prtusch! prtusch! prtusch!

another day in hell..

In this time of madness, vice-magazines, americanaparell-stores, oversized(remember, its not the same as "too big") fluo print shirts, rayban wayfarers that everybody suddently found at home, or maybe at their grandparents's, and just thought they where tooo cool, (or, just those huge nerd glasses, even worse!), parties sponsored by beer companies with overprized beer, clothes that went from second hand to vintage over a night, wheather so cold the balls fall off everytime you have to go to work, a goverment that's tired of doing stuff, so they sell out everything, hoping that somebody else will do stuff for them, microsoft buying a teeny weeny bit(1.6 percent) of a website(I bet a dollar no one will even remember what facebook was in five years!) for a fucking ridicoulous amount of money (240 million dollars!), it is nice too think about di holy maddaland for a while..

Junior Kelly - Ethiopia

Mulatu Atatke - Yèkèrmo Sèw (A Man of Experience and Wisdom) (you might recognize this one from the broken flowers soundtrack...)

..And be sure to check out Johans post(and torrent link) about the best rnb album this year at The day we lost the soul

Boom! Boom! Boom!

I never thought that we actually would get to the point that a cover of Vengaboys -Boom! Boom! Boom! would hit us, (actually, according to wikipedia vengaboys song is just a cover as well, but who cares?) and when it actually does, its of course by the king of sleeazy-cheezy covers with stupid lyrics, Mr. Elephant Man.

Elephant Man - Boom Boom Boom (Up & Live riddim)

I guess it was just a matter of time though, everybody seems to love the 90's nowadays.. Soon, im sure Vengaboys will join Spice girls on their "long awaited" tour. Hopefully, Sweden is too far away, and too hard to get ahold of drugs for them to bother to come here..

Bonus:
Vocie Mail - Up & Live (Up & Live riddim)
