Whose Summer is it? - Beenie, Kartel, Mavado, Elephant Man

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 10:06:50 -0500

By Kon-Vick OutAroad.com Writer Here at OutAroad.com we are trying to find out which dancehall artiste is going to ‘run’ the summer. We have decided that the best way to find out is to get you involved. Just leave a comment to let us know who you think will be ‘sizzling hot’ this summer. Below is a synopsis of some of the artistes on our list. Last year almost everyone readily agreed that Munga Honourable was sizzling. The ‘Gangsta Ras’ had several smashing hits that cemented themselves onto the tongues of dancehall music lovers. However, Munga has lost that momentum and this year won’t be considered for the ‘pick of the summer list’. On our list, we have the fiery Vybz Kartel, the intense Mavado, the blazing Beenie Man, the relentless Assassin, the energetic Elephant Man, and new comers Bugle and Serani (Daseca). Vybz Kartel has been one of the most consistent dancehall acts in recent time and has a plethora of hardcore dancehall hits under his belt. For this summer, we can expect a lot from the former Alliance member as his palette just keeps growing with songs that appeal to his ever-growing fan base. Some of Kartel’s more vibrant songs going into the summer are: Fatta Than a Pound, My Scheme, Trailer Load of Money, Money Fi Spend, Tightest Punanny, and Broad Daylight. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Predator Lost In The Music

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 13:43:53 -0500

By Nomad OutAroad.com Writer The response towards our latest feature - ‘Lost In The Music’ has been fabulous. We have received tons of emails with lots of names that some of our readers request us to feature. There are names on some lists that surprised us here at OutAroad.com and we will be paying close attention to those artistes in the coming months. This week in ‘Lost In The Music,’ we will be featuring Predator - ‘The War Editor’. The slang “mad, sick, head nuh good,” raged like a wild fire throughout Jamaica, and even caught on overseas. However, as Bob Marley sang: “Yuh can fool the people sometimes, but yuh can’t fool all the people all the time, so now you see the light…” Well the world has seen the light and have stepped into it and left Predator in the dark. At the dawn of 2000 Predator was so hot that even internationally acclaimed dancehall artiste Elephant Man and his protégé at the time Kiprich ‘borrowed’ his ideas and turned them into local hits. His songs Nah Nuh Head and Head Nuh Good stuck to the tongue of thousands and Predator looked destine to make it big.

NY Times Hails Caribbean Fashion Week 2008

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 13:40:53 -0500

As the international reviews of CFW 2008 hit the press, websites and silver screens around the world, the New York Times’ is among the early reports posted on the internet. Hailed by the Times as a major success, Caribbean Fashion Week is featured in ‘The Moment’, a daily review of art, fashion and design. Lifestyle writer Vivien Goldman raves and gushes at the near 50 designers including Jamaica’s Barry Moncrieffe, the UK’s Gavin Douglas, Africa’s Deola Sagoe and the American rapper/actress Eve, who showed their collections at the region’s biggest and most respected fashion extravaganza in Jamrock’s metropolitan hub earlier this month. The world’s fashion press was definitely attuned to the ‘pulse’ of fashion and style at CFW 08 and for Goldman, it was the local and regional designers including Guadeloupe’s Denis Devaed who gave “a stunning presentation of sultry jungle satin evening gowns and crinolines” and Jamaica’s Mutamba “flowing hand-painted robes that honed rasta chic” who earned top marks in her book. The Trinidad and Tobago delegation also stole a lot of the attention: “Its two grandes dames - the minimalist Meiling and the glam couturière Claudia Pegus were awarded CFW honors for their craft and quite rightly so…The Cloth, another T&T label designed by Robert Young, also had people talking. Cinched by nifty “tush corsets,” Young’s shapely white on white layers, sparked with primary colors, segued into crimson linen frocks and a rainbow print puffball cocktail dress.”

Mr. Proppa Fix- My man has a small d**k

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 10:58:24 -0500

Dear Mr. Proppa Fix, I read your advice column yesterday (last week) and was impressed with the advice you gave to the young man. I have my own dilemma and would like your advice. I am a 20 year-old woman attending a tertiary level institution in the Montego Bay area. I consider myself very attractive and most guys compliment my figure. I am also an outgoing person who enjoys meeting people. I have been dating this guy for two months, he is a perfect gentleman, and he always tries to give me anything I want. He makes a respectable living and he is very progressive and ambitious as he is always looking for new opportunities. We connect on a social level, however, the problem is that he has a very small d**k - when I say small I mean that it is short and very mawga. The first time we were about to have sex, and he took off his clothes I had to search to find it- it was so embarrassing. I know that he is sensitive about it because I realize that he always wants the lights to be off whenever we are having sex and he has had to resort to ‘other’ methods of trying to please me sexually. The thing is that nothing can replace a good d**k and that is what I am used to getting, as my last boyfriend was very well endowed.

Konshens rocks "Sex In The City"

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 10:55:24 -0500

By Krazzy Katty OutAroad.com Writer Natural Bridge recording artiste Konshens, who is poised to be one of Jamaica’s next reggae/dancehall super star, gave a stunning performance last Saturday at the second staging of Sex In The City. The headline act was simply stunning and his fans were reaching out to him and gobbling up every note he sang. The stimulation started close to 1 a.m. when Sex In The City promoter ZIP Jock Niki Z introduced Konshens on stage. DJ Smurf from Irie FM was geared up behind the wheels of steel rinsing his Konshens interlude as anticipation crept throughout the audience. The moment ‘Mr. Winner’ took the stage the females began screaming uncontrollably. Blanks and screams greeted Winna, and immediately the deejay received three consecutive forwards. Shouts of ‘pppuuulll uuuppp’ echoed throughout the venue the minute that Konshens began to delve into Rasta Imposter. This stepped on several artistes ‘corn’ but Konshens continued to thrill his fans. The performance took a turn when one of Jamaica’s top female dancer Mystic, took to the stage. The men inside the venue suddenly sprung to life and many barked like dogs as she entice them with some rousing dance moves. Konshens made good of the opportunity, deejaying “Gal Yuh Lock Di Whole Dance Down - Di Way Yuh Shake Your Booty.” - the crowd roared. Konshens capped off a successful set with How It Feel (produced by Birch) and simmered for Mi Madda. Veteran deejay Delly Ranx also gave a wonderful performance to close the show. Koshens’ next major performance will be at Reggae Sumfest.
