Skip Marley - Cry to Me (Tuff Gong International 2015)

“Music is freedom for me," says Skip Marley, the grand-nephew of Marcia Griffiths, and the grandson of Bob and Rita Marley. "I want people to just feel the music and let it be anything they want to make of it.” He wrote and arranged his debut single on Tuff Gong International, which was co-produced with Paul Fakhourie, who has worked with the likes of Lauryn Hill, Stephen Marley, Damian Marley and Nas. “Cry to Me’ is a message for this girl I know, well really a message for everybody who seems to focus on their insecurities… I’m just saying it’s cool to be who you are. Don’t let society deceive you and make you believe you’re not enough.” (boomshot.com)

OMI - Cheerleader (Felix Jaehn Remix) [Official Video 2015]

Insightful Jamaican artist Omi (Omar Samuel Pasley) is bringing his breakthrough story to the U.S., with the compelling sheen of “Cheerleader,” leading the way. The smash dance song has notched more than 90 million Spotify streams, topping iTunes in 14 territories, including Germany, Australia, Sweden and others (Top 10 in nearly 30 other markets). Released in 2012, a cleverly understated remix by German DJ/Producer Felix Jaehn helped power the global momentum building around the infectious track.

“Cheerleader” originally took off in Hawaii, but Omi was getting a larger sense of the song’s ‘stickiness’ where ever he performed it live. “People just gravitated to it, always remarking how it was their favorite.” Felix Jaehn’s 2014 remix added to the combustible nature of the track,” but by deftly imbuing acoustic gestures into the mix – conga, piano, trumpet – embellishing its unornamented feel. “I loved the mix even before it took off,” says Omi. “So calm; And unusual for a remix, it made you want to listen to the words, too.”

LYRICS

Protoje - Love Gone Cold ft. Sevana (2015)

I know you think about me every night
especially when he ain't treating you right
I guess it didn't go according to plan
try to replace me with a simpler man
The streets of kingston yeah they do get so cold
to think you thought that they were covered with gold
Now everybody's got your story to tell
i hope you handle it well

(Sevana)
Love gone cold
gave you all i had yes i played my role
cannot give you more than that
I love you but I'm not coming back
You've done me wrong
Yet you keep repeating the same old song
But baby that won't change the fact
I love you but I'm not coming back

Girl naa show man no decency
did all believe up to recently
change her mind oh so frequently
and me can't operate pon that frequency
times she'd a deh pon the P's and Q's
start act different she seem confused
all a the things weh she keep consume
carnival a come and she need costume
me waa left from the gliding lights
she just care bout the friday nights
from sunset back to broad day light
and she coulda be the Queen if the card play right
but she woulda rather be the ace
all a the fun wah she take out of the chase
want make a run but me nuh in a the race then
but such is the case when

Now you calling in the dead of the night
like i made up the things you did in my mind
you have no respect and you don't even try
out there playing games, always telling lies
Look what you look what you just look what you did
don't you care about my feelings
there was a time when what we had was true
now those days are gone there is nothing left to do

Now you're alone with all those secrets you keep
Keeping you up and you can't go back to sleep
sleeping around to find a happier place
placing your heart inside a lonelier space
i guess you thought things would get better with time
not knowing what we had was one of a kind
now you're afraid to look at who you've become
an empty soul on the run
