“Nowadays ya need eyez in the back of your head,” observes Collie Buddz. I usually h8 the auto-tuner effect on vocals, but like anything else, it can be used artfully and that is the case here. Icy cool song with an urban angst-y slickness and bluesy dancehall vibes. I dig it.

Mike Relm – “Everytime feat Del The Funky Homosapien”
Del tha Funky Homosapien throws down on Mike Relm’s “Spectacle EP” and the results are beyond brilliant. Seems Del and the various producers he works with make a habit of breaking new ground and pushing the boundaries of hip-hop way beyond its clichés, over and again. Check this out, it’s tight and real and heartbreaking and hilarious all at once.

If you love dancehall reggae, you’ll love this scorcher from Beenie Man. A sublime bass line, crisp techno drum patterns, and rootsy acoustic piano skank provide a tuff skeleton, over which Beenie Man chats in his patented high energy style. Some major sound system rockin’ stuff, but it sounds GR8 in ear buds too. I posted Bennie Man’s brilliant “Jamaican Style“ earlier so don’t sleep pon it! Everybody bawl..

The Splif Click – “Like a Soldier”
Rockin’ in a classic Jamaican dancehall style, The Splif Click drops a gr8 combo of humor and light, plus message and depth over a spare and precise backing track. A joyous track that any dancehall fan will adore.
