Downbeat Sound ft - Ninja Man vs Louie Rankin [Don Gorgon vs Don Dadda] 1991 Louie Rankin (Leonard Forbes, 1963 – September 30, 2019) was a Jamaican dancehall reggae singer, songwriter and Jamaican Grammy-winning actor best known playing “Ox” in the 1998 movie “Belly” and Teddy Bruckshut in Shotta . Louie Rankin was born in Saint Thomas Parish, Jamaica and grew up in Rockfort and East Kingston. His most successful song was the single "Typewriter", released in 1992. Ninjaman, alias Don Gorgon, (born Desmond John Ballentine on January 20, 1966, in Annotto Bay, Jamaica) is a popular dancehall deejay, known for his controversial and pro-gun lyrics and his stuttering and melodramatic style. Ninjaman is currently in jail awaiting trial for a murder that was commited in Kingston, Jamaica. After moving from his birthplace Annotto Bay to Kingston at the age of 11, he launched his deejay career with the Black Culture Sound System at age 12 as "Double Ugly". In 1980, he joined Killamanjaro, there got the chance to learn from established deejays Super Cat and Early B, and released his debut single as "Uglyman". Yet another name change made him the now well known Ninjaman. In 1987, Ninjaman recorded - and produced himself - his first hit single "Protection", a duet with Courtney Melody. The following years brought many prolific collaborations with producers like King Jammy, Witty, Xterminator, Philip "Fatis" Burrell, Redman, Ini Kamoze, Bobby Digital, Augustus "Gussie" Clarke, and Steely & Clevie and Henry "Junjo" Lawes. It has been said that Ninjaman comes up with all of his lyrics on the spot in the recording studio, in a freestyle manner. ❤️💛💚 Uk's Leading Broadcast Station For Reggae & Sound System Culture Artists, Sound Systems, Preserving & Documenting Reggae SoundSystems Culture For more Quality Vibes Subscribe to our YouTube Channel.

Chuky TheOutCome - Happy Life Live & Direct at YouTube The Birmingham raised breakthrough Dancehall Artist, Chuky TheOutcome.  His name “Chuky”, (inspired by the American Slasher horror film series created by Don Mecini) although a street name adopted to reflect his eclectic personality, it was his ability to entertain that allowed him to rise to prominence in the West Midlands urban scene. A 5 year stand still put his music career on hold. During this time, his father was murdered in 2009, and he had to care for a bed-bound grandfather on his own, while facing numerous court cases. Chuky persevered through all of this subsequently dubbing his new name “Chuky” with “TheOutcome”. A title that truly emphasises the metamorphosis he experienced following his trials and tribulations. Despite this 5 year stand still. Chuky managed to preserve his passion for music, with his rebirth as Chuky TheOutcome. He knew the best place to cultivate his craft after this long period of inactivity was Jamaica. The home and school of reggae music, a place that would truly put his skills and talents to the test. A place that many artists that Chuky looks up to refined their skills as artists, such as Sean Paul and Vybz Kartel.Chuky capitalised on many opportunities out in Jamaica. He was introduced to MOBO award winning artist Gyptian, Through a mutual friend. This led to Chuky and Gyptian collaborating on a song and shooting a music video together. Following this Chuky returned to the UK, to his surprise, the song had been A-listed on Capital One XTRA, alongside a distribution deal with VP Records. Recognising Jamaica’s potential after “Burning from the Heart ft. Gyptian” went viral. He returned to Jamaica, with hopes to take advantage of the overseas dancehall scene. On the same day he arrived he created a song that would galvanise his position among dancehall greats, “Bamboo Man”. Performing on Jamaica’s most infamous sound systems, including Stone Love (a group that took part in the popular Red Bull Culture Clash). Bamboo man has since cut over 250 dubplates and he has performed at numerous Caribbean road shows, has been featured in Newspapers such as Jamaica Star, The Gleaner, British Newspaper the Voice, as well as TV Music Shows such as Entertainment report and Fiwi Choice among countless other mainstream TV stations across the Caribbean. Even in UK, popular figures such as BBC Radio One Extra’s Seani B caught wind of Bamboo Man and contacted Chuky personally for a dubplate. Chuky owes much of his success to his intellect and entrepreneurial wit. At every corner of his life and subsequent career, Chuky has overcome the adversity and financial volatility of his career choices. ❤️💛💚Uk's Leading Broadcast Station For Reggae & Sound System Culture Artists, Sound Systems, Preserving & Documenting #Reggae SoundSystems Culture For more Quality Vibes Subscribe to our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MflJVWnuzBw

Nana Genesis - Speak Softly Live & Direct at YouTube
Having started singing and performing at the age of six for family and friends, writing her first song at the age of thirteen and leading harmonies in school productions, Nana always loved to perform using her voice.
Nana successfully joined the London Allstars Steel Band and played at the famous Notting Hill Carnival and began to take up guitar lessons. Whilst still at school, Nana auditioned to be part of the band, Ezeke and Aqua Vita. She got the job, but was not able to tour with them until she finished school. Having completed her education, Nana went on to tour the world tour with Aqua Vita at sixteen, meeting and sharing the stage with Natalie Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Cher and Ben Vereen. Whilst playing at the Monte Carlo Sporting Club, Nana was able to secure a solo slot, performing for Princess Grace of Monaco ­Grace Kelly ­ where Ms Kelly took to the floor on her own, dancing as Nana sang.
Looking for a new challenge, Nana decided to tap into her love of Reggae, having grown up listening to it as her father was Jamaican. Nana travelled to Jamaica where she worked with the legendary Gregory Isaacs . She also went onto back the formidable Freddie McGregor. It was a dream come true and Nana finally secured her reputation as a strong vocal artist and excellent backing singer.
With Reggae finding its way back into her life full­time, Nana went on to work with Earl Sixteen, Culture, Junior Delgado, Johnny Osbourne and the Mad Professor at Ariwa Sounds.
Having been writing her own songs for years, Nana recorded some tracks with PWA Records and went on to perform them across the UK, with her most successful single, Holding On.
Nana has continued to work as a backing vocalist. Recording in the studio, on stage, covering Pop, Soul, Jazz and Reggae. She also writes for other artists and performs her own material.
Whilst continuing to work on her own music and perform with high­ profile artists, Nana completed a Performing Arts Access course gaining a Distinction. She currently works with various performing arts companies and schools as a vocal coach, training singers and performing for nationwide events and private and charity functions.
Whilst doing all this, Nana also uses her talent to work with people who have Dementia, as a singing coach. Her work with clients has proven to boosts their brain activity, manages stress and stimulates positive interaction with others.
Whilst teaching and writing, Nana continues to tour as a busy artist, performing at many festivals and venues with the likes of Little Roy (on the Jools Holland Show BBC2) Max Romeo, John Holt, Michael Prophet, Wayne Wonder, Ken Booth, Chucka Demus & Pliers, Queen Ifrica, Levi Roots, Little Roy and Gappy Ranks, Derrick Harriott, Mr Vegas, One Love Orchestra and Mary Wilson from the Supremes.

Grantie Asher - Black Skin Live & Direct at YouTube Paul Grant (born in Huddersfield on 21st December 1966), better known by his stage name “Grantie Asher”, is a singer/songwriter who specializes in reggae/lovers rock, but who occasionally likes to venture into different genres. Grant discovered that he had a talent for music as a little boy. He would sometimes sneak into the front-room when his parents were out and play his dad’s records; a mixture of Blue Beat, Motown, Reggae and Jim Reeves. On Sunday he attended church where he got involved in the church band and started to play the drums. From there Grantie got involved in the church choir. He explains “I was so good, they stuck me right at the back, so no one could hear me (laugh)”.From there Grantie discovered he had a vocal talent. After a few years,he left the church and ventured out into the big wide world (Huddersfield) to further his musical career. He subsequently became a member of a sound system called Armagedeon. Grantie experimented with “toasting” and to his surprise he was really good ”I remember other sound members saying I was really good and when we played out, the audience really showed their appreciation”. Grantie’s toasting was swiftly followed by him singing whilst he was a member of Amargeddeon sound. “As we’re on the subject of Armageddeon Sound, I’d like to send big shouts going out the man-dem; D-Bow General, Robbie Rue, Daddy Lee, T-Dread and Daddy Admiral for providing me with a stepping stone”.As time went by a producer from Luton named Sydney Luddy Crooks heard about this singer called “Grantie Asher” and approached him and asked him would he be interested in moving to Luton to further his singing career. Grantie did not hesitate to oblige. Grantie recorded four songs with Crooks (Pioneer International Records); “Something Special”, “Don’t Play That Song”, “Come lnto My Life” and “Wheel And Come”. That is where that story ended. At the end of these recording they parted company on bad terms. Grantie then moved to London in 1989 and hooked up with Passion Records where he released a double ‘A’ side record called “If It Was Love” followed by a duet with Paulette Tajah entitled “Love or Physical” “Which if I remember rightly, got to No.1 in the Black Echo’s Reggae Charts” he recalls. Around this time Grant was a supporting act for Maxi Priest and Chaka Demus and Pliers.He sang at the Podium Nightclub regularly and had regular involvements in stage shows in and around London and The Midlands. As Grantie’s musical career progressed, he moved on to experiment with a different genre of music; Urban Soul. He started working with a production company called Rhythem Productions. During that time he entered a competition on KISS FM with a cover version song called “Do For Love” originally sung by Bobby Caldwell. Grantie won the competition, in which the prize was 1,000 pressed copies of his tune. In 2004 Grantie auditioned for a TV program called “Stars In Your Eyes” and was successful in being able to perform as Luther Vandross. To his surprise, Grantie won his heat and came 6th place in the actual finals, Grantie recalls “It was nice whilst it lasted, but nothing nuh sweet like reggae music”.Presently, working with producer Vybz from Starrvybz Entertainment. Grantie has scored a massive under ground hit in the song called “Black Skin” a great inspiring & self uplifting song. This break through hasn’t happened in a long while since Kofi “Black Pride”This track can be heard on any UK & international radio at any time as this song is gaining great attention whenever played and is being recognized as one of the best songs from grantie. ‘Black Skin’ focuses on the issues of being black and proud. Grantie will continue to record with Starrvybz Entertainment on future projects. ❤️💛💚Uk's Leading Broadcast Station For Reggae & Sound System Culture Artists, Sound Systems, Preserving & Documenting #Reggae SoundSystems Culture For more Quality Vibes Subscribe to our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NvTJxUTSx8
