Romain Virgo to Release "The Gentle Man" – Fourth Studio Album

New Post has been published on https://plugzafrica.com/romain-virgo-to-release-the-gentle-man-fourth-studio-album/

Romain Virgo to Release "The Gentle Man" – Fourth Studio Album

Jamaican reggae star Romain Virgo is set to share his fourth studio album, The Gentle Man, on March 1. The twelve-track project will be out digitally and on CD via VP Records. 

The Gentle Man is Romain Virgo’s most candid body of work to date. The singer questions, deconstructs and affirms his beliefs, sharing clear-eyed perspectives across a dozen tracks. He challenges what it means to be a man in Caribbean culture, explores the highs and lows of ‘Afromantic’ relationships, and, in the process, blends classic, foundational sounds with modern sonics.

“I kept some important questions in mind while working on this album. Who am I to my fans? To those close to me? To myself? People saw me go from this inexperienced youth with a gentle way of doing things to a man with the same morals, but new understanding. With this project, I present my full, authentic self. This is who I am,” said Romain Virgo.

With production credits from Donovan ‘Don Corleon’ Bennett, Oliver ‘Cadenza’ Rodigan, Phillip ‘Winta’ James, Romeich Major, Maurice ‘Seani B’ Delauney, Nicholas ‘Niko’ Browne, among others, The Gentle Man builds on Romain’s soul-stirring reggae palette, closing the gaps between roots reggae, lover’s rock, Afrobeats, and more.

He’s joined by dancehall phenom Masicka on the album opener, “Been There Before”; delivers a heartfelt tribute to single mothers with Nigerian reggae-fusionist Patoranking (“I Believe”); and closes out the album with hard-hitting features from the multi-generational Jamaican talents Jesse Royal (“Bridges”) and Capleton (“You Must Pay”).

Romain Virgo has dropped four singles in the lead-up to the album: “Good Woman,” “Driver,” “Switch You On,” and, most recently, “Been There Before.” The latest track was released on January 26.

In support of his upcoming album, Romain Virgo will perform in Jamaica in February, throughout the North-East and South of the United States in March, at several festivals across the Caribbean in April, and in Europe from June to August, including at Summerjam in Germany in July.

The Gentle Man will be out on all streaming platforms and CD on March 1.

Our TOP 5 Female Caribbean Recording Artiste in 2018

Our TOP 5 Female Caribbean Recording Artiste in 2018

The Caribbean is blessed with some of the most talented women in music industry. Today we feature five of our favorite female Caribbean recording artiste for 2018.

  Patrice Roberts

Patrice Roberts (born 11 April 1985) is a Trinidadian soca singer.

She came to national attention in 2005 with the huge hit collaboration “The Islands” alongside Bunji Garlin, written by Kernal Roberts and produced by Shawn Noel (Da Ma$tamind), which was used in promotional commercials by the Ministry of Tourism.[1]

It was in 2005 when Patrice Roberts shocked the entertainment industry in Trinidad and Tobago with her talent. Her introduction through a vocal collaboration was with Bunji Garlin,who at that time was in the spotlight. It was her refreshingly soothing and powerful vocals that quickly got her the attention that many established entertainers desired. Very few were able to provide accurate answers about her and her career, appearing mystery like. Patrice Roberts has assumed her position in the Caribbean music industry as a force to be reckoned with.

Music was always an instrumental part of her life and would inevitably become her career. As far as her mind allows her to journey Patrice recollects always being in love with music and singing. It was at the tender age of seven she began taking her passion seriously.Since then Patrice has not regretted surrendering to her passion.

In 2006, shortly after Patrice shot into the spotlight she became one of the frontline vocalists and the only female vocalists in the internationally recognized Soca Band, which at that time was known as Xtatik (now HD). For Patrice her professional career had just begun and she was in full flight. It would be a challenging and difficult journey for Patrice but one that she would embrace and make her own when given the opportunity.

Fresh out of school, Roberts experienced what many would consider “culture shock”; moving from her countryside dwellings in Toco to city lights. Her transition from a calypso consumed lifestyle to Soca meant that the life she was accepting would attract obstacles beyond her understanding, “I had to adapt to the culture, the atmosphere and now compete with established artistes.”

Prior to her collaboration with Bunji Garlin and her alliance with Machel Montano and HD, Patrice had numerous Calypso accolades under her belt. Her journey from then to now was crafted by ace songwriter and producer, Kernal Roberts. The male Roberts was approached by Patrice’s then mentors; Dan Nero and George Stanisclaus for her introduction into the “Soca World.” This is how 2005 began. One of her greatest achievements followed soon after when she was named the youngest female Road March winner for her collaboration with Machel Montano titled “Band Of The Year”. This achievement would solidify her existence in the Soca world and prove to critics that she was more talent than they expected. Her talent has provided her with opportunities to travel extensively throughout the Caribbean, The USA and Europe with more opportunities still presenting themselves.

To understand her career one must understand her struggles, obstacles and successes, a simple word of advice from her to anyone interested in following their dreams is, “Believe in them.” To date Roberts has been recognized for some of her hit singles namely, ‘Big Girl Now’, ‘Old and Grey’, ‘A Little Wine’, ‘Bruk Out’, ‘I am Soca’, ‘Unforgettable’, ‘Tempa Wine’, ‘

Sugar Boy’, Wukkin Up’, ‘Rollin’, ‘Always Be’ and among others.

Hood Celebrityy

  HoodCelebrityy, known for her spit fire lyrics, and ability to merge her hustler persona and her Jamaican background, creating a new genre in itself. She has become one of the fastest rising reggae artist to date!

HoodCelebrityy was born Tina Pinnock. Hood spent her early childhood in the hills of St. Catherine and Port More, Jamaica. It was then that the unbeknownst artist, HoodCelebrityy fell in love with the energetic and contagious rhythm of reggae music.

 At the curve of becoming a teenager, HoodCelebrityy relocated to the states. HoodCelebrityy landed in the northernmost of 5 bouroughs in the concrete jungle, New York City, The Bronx.  “At the age of 14, I chose to focus on dancing and music”, states HoodCelebrityy.”

The thought provoking question, why the name HoodCelebrityy arises amongst many inquiring minds. HoodCelebrityy explains, “Im a hustler at heart and Ive done it all.  I worked in one of the most popular urban clothing stores in the Bronx on Fordham Road, to running around in these crazy streets with my family trying to trap a dollar.  Whether it was Clothing, music, or street sh*t, I could move it.   At my store I was the girl that would get you right, Hood says with a laugh. All the customers looked towards me to put together that special outfit for the wkd. While at work, I would upload quick 15 second video freestyles that started to go viral.  My instagram page started to become very popular at the same time Ive solidified a reputation on the street as the girl not to be played with, thus the name HoodCelebrityy.

t was the summer of 2015 that HoodCelebrityy’s long time friend and confidant, social media phenomenon and recording artist, Cardi B called her up. Cardi exclaimed with question, “I didn’t’ know you did music? Your sh*t is fire!” “From there, Cardi posted my video and the rest is history. I went from 2,000 followers to 12,000 overnight. From Cardi’s post, I got so much love and recognition”, states HoodCelebrityy. The next day, I recorded my first single, “Wine Pon It”and shot the video. That too went viral and from there, it was no turning back. I had to give the people more of me and I wanted to”.

HoodCelebrityy has been driven by the sounds of legendary lyricists and artists. One major influence has been Vybz Cartel. When asked about Vybz and the motivation he’s provided to Hoods rapidly growing career, Hood explains, “Vybz Kartel’s music has been a major influence towards my artistry. He is a genius. He can make music about any topic. Not all artists can do that. His music motivates and uplifts my spirit and that is exactly how I want to impact fans with my music”, states HoodCelebrityy. “50 Cent is my favorite Rapper of all time. He is creative, smart, and he knows how to stay relevant, and is at the top of his game. I aspire to be just like that!”

HoodCelebrityy’s debut mix tape, “Can’t Believe It’s Just A Girl” is scheduled for an early 2017 release. “The reason for my mixtape’s title is because people hear my music, look me up, and then they say, “I can’t believe it’s just a girl” smiles HoodCelebrityy. They go on to say, “She is too dope to be a girl.” “I don’t try to do what females regularly do, but whatever I put my mind to, I know that I can do it”.

With a sound so well versed and well rounded, from Reggae to Pop music, Hoodcelebrityy has initiated a “new wave” that shes hand crafted, and has added to her flows.  With the appropriately tilted track “The Takeover”, she introduces a fresh sound she calls “Trap Reggae”.  “Its like rap infused with Jamaican urban culture.  I am a huge fan of hip hop, so I wanted to create a sound that incorporates the witty flows and gangsta beats, with a dance hall edge!”

HoodCelebrityy can be found across multiple social media platforms, with a mass following, totaling over 150,000, @Hoodcelebrityy. Her viral video freestyles, and game shaking music videos can be found on her youtube channel, titled HoodCelebrityy with over 1.5 million views to date!

HoodCelebrityy has opened for multi-platinum artist, Shaggy, Barrington Levy and most  recently Cardi B! Needless to say Hood is becoming an all around entertainer! Her stage presence is phenomenal and can be felt throughout the entire audience! her performances are an experience within themselves! Hood states,

“I love to perform. I put on a real show when I am performing. I am a true performer”, states HoodCelebrityy. You can hear HoodCelebrityy’s Music being played in clubs and radio stations all over the world!

Vybz Kartel should thank Shenseea for making his song better, according to management.

Vybz Kartel’s original version of “Loodi” might sound good but Shenseea made it a lot better. That is in the opinion of shenseea’s manager, Romeich Major, and he is sticking by his opinion.

“The real people that know music will prefer the collab. If me haffi get a flogging, me a go get a flogging. Shenseea’s version sounds way better than the original,” he said. “The track that you hear out…

The manager of dancehall artiste Shenseea announced on Thursday night that he is taking bookings for hot new artiste Skeng. It’s a big move for Skeng, who is possibly the biggest streaming dancehall artiste at this point in time. Up to the end of October, Skeng has dominated the YouTube Music Charts as the most streamed deejay. His songs “Gvnman shift”, “Heaven Passport”, and “Live Large” are among the hottest tunes in the dancehall space. Romeich Major, who is also a super manager in the dancehall space, has successfully launched the career of several artistes and transformed their lives announced that he’s taking bookings for the artiste.“AYE BWOI!!! Betta humble yourself an link @romeichworld fi bookings u hear mi a told yuh!” He said in a caption for a poster where the artiste’s name was prominently displayed along with his photograph. “Accepting all bookings for @skeng.don now!!” He added. It’s unclear what the poster meant as Romeich has only been booking artistes who are signed to his management. At present, he is managing Ding Dong, and previously, he managed Shenseea and Teejay, who is now managed by Sharon Burke. Still, it seems as though the bookings agency might be a new venture for the Major. (at Kingston, Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWdlCFUrcJR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Kanye West added Shenseea to his Donda single, “Pure Soul” with Roddy Ricch at his listening party in Chicago. Dancehall Artiste Shenseea is scoring another major victory as the 24-year-old artist is poised to make her debut on Kanye’s much-anticipated album Donda That’s according to her Jamaican music manager Romeich Major who shared photos of the artist at the Kanye event. Earlier in the night, there were speculations that a mystery woman had shown up at the event as many speculated if it was a love interest to Kanye. However, as the event progressed, it became clear that the “love interest” is none other than Shenseea, who stood next to Kanye as he rapped with others, including Marilyn Manson, who stood next to Kanye. Shenseea sang the chorus to the song while Kanye was rapping. Some fans are speculating that Shenseea’s appearance called Kanye’s move “petty” as a jab at Drake, who Kanye West is supposedly beefing with because of a nasty rumor involving Drake and Shenseea. 📷 @urbanislandz https://www.instagram.com/p/CTFVr8dLgMS/?utm_medium=tumblr

Shenseea link up with fellow XO artist Belly on a new song, “How I’m Feeling,” off EA Sports Madden 22 soundtrack. With the video game set to be released worldwide on Friday, August 20, NFL fans and music fans alike are excited to see the tracklist. ShengYeng fans are on edge after she revealed her placement on the highly anticipated game, as well as the collaboration with Palestinian-Canadian rapper, Belly. Shenseea re-posted an announcement by EA Sports Madden NFL 22 (@eamaddennfl) that the full tracklist will drop tomorrow morning, but spoiled the surprise with her caption, “I’m on da soundrtrack [dancing emoji].” Her manager, Romeich Major, also took to his Instagram page to post a cover art of the artists featured on the upcoming game and captioned, “@shenseea featured on @eamaddenfl.” (at Kingston, Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/CShFt3oLNpy/?utm_medium=tumblr

According to music manager Romeich Major, an artist who was signed to Romeich Entertainment had left the management company because of his “mental state.”  Romeich is now known as co-manager to Dancehall starlet Shenseea, as well as Ding Dong and up until a few weeks ago TeeJay, who confirmed that he had left the Romeich Entertainment camp, and has retained the services of Sharon Burke’s Solid Agency. Major hinted at a reason for TeeJay’s departure upon joining DJ LavaSound’s Chat and Laugh Instagram series on Saturday night.  He had apparently just wrapped up the performance with Shenseea at the Rolling Loud festival in Miami and was very irked about the not-so-positive reviews that popped up online from some Jamaican commentators.

LOVE I Got For You singer, Shenseea, says she has no intentions of jumping ship on former manager Romeich Major or the Romeich Entertainment label. But will, in fact, still be working closely with them. Earlier this week, news surfaced she had acquired the services of Lebanese-Canadian music executive Wassim “Sal” Slaiby as manager. Slaiby, the CEO and founder of XO Recordings, manages a roster of acts, including multi-platinum-selling singer The Weeknd, Doja Cat, and Brandy. “We are still a work in progress. He (Slaiby) just came on board officially, but he's been working behind the scenes. We're trying to see how compatible we are with each other,” she said (at Kingston, Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRY3TCZIFZq/?utm_medium=tumblr
