Fiji - Can't Chase The Pain Away

A collaborative record between the ever talented MAKISI, who is also my fellow teammate (of the RAWKASYAWD) & myself (Sione Toki). We felt inclined to cut against the grain of our modern music with this laid back, oldie-inspired track. Although the sound may be old-school, we decided to put a modern twist of lyrics to it, making it unique in it's own way. We have plenty more where that came from, so follow us for the latest music! DOWNLOAD is FREE, so have it, friends! Thank you ALL so much for your support- until the next upload, stay BLESSED! OFAS/ALOFAS -RAWKASYAWD

Sione Toki & Makisi - "#IJS (Keep It 100)"

Blesss!!

Turn It Down (Im Stuck)** SHY** Feat. Sione Toki Prod. By J. Irie

Summer 2014 brings the heat in more ways than one with the second single from Juvenile’s first lady, Avii.

‘Shoot You Down’ is a refreshing tune that pulls melodic influences from the 60’s, combined with modernised drums and synths. 

It's lyrics take a lighthearted approach on a common social situation between the opposite sex. 

The track also features Australian based singer/songwriter, Kennyon Brown. A definite star on the rise and a name to look out for in future.

Co-written by: Donell Lewis, Avii, Mistah Mez and Kennyon Brown
Produced by: Donell Lewis

Tempo: 95bpm

Lyrics:
Come closer to me darling
Been waiting all this time for you
You know we've got some things to do
And now that you're here
We can do this all night long
Baby listen to this song

Baby let me take all your clothes off
And shower you with love like never before
Whatever you tell me I will surrender
Empower me with love like you are my cure

Go head and put it on me
Go head and put it on me darling
Go head and put it on me
Go head and put it on me baby

Open up to me darling
Tell me everything that turns you on
And I'll give it to you strong
Now that you're here (right here, right here)
Any wish you want, I'll grant it
Til' the morning sweet romancing

Baby let me take all your clothes off
And shower you with love like never before
Whatever you tell me I will surrender
Empower me with love like you are my cure

Go head and put it on me
Go head and put it on me darling
Go head and put it on me
Go head and put it on me baby

Baby let me take all your clothes off
And shower you with love like never before
Whatever you tell me I will surrender
Empower me with love like you are my cure

See I've been waiting all day baby
For you to come on home, come on home
So I could put it on, I'll put it on you
Put it on you..

Put It On Me

Put It On Me (feat. Finn Gruva)

Weekend (Reggae)

Hello, hello! Johnny here, on a brand new day, month, year and chapter- READY to take this music thing to new heights. FOREAL. I come to you this time with a record that may or may not sound ignorant and/or flashy, but that's just how the record manifested itself in the creative process. Anyway, as the song reflects where my mind/heart is, I hope to direct that vibe to YOU, the listener- in hopes that such may inspire, influence, encourage & promote PAWSiTiViTY. Not only that, but this is a statement. A statement to my peers/competition, letting them know that as much as I appreciate their work (and the relationships that have spawned from being apart of this music circle), I'm here with a valid PURPOSE.

TiME will tell which of us are really set apart for GREATNESS and which are not. With the upmost respect, I'm trying to CHANGE THE WORLD- what are YOU here for, if not that? If not that, you may need to re-evaluate your purpose. This is the TRUTH as I have come to believe it. Music is POWERFUL in so many ways- and if you aren't using that power to benefit the people around you and those who come in contact with it, then I'm afraid your contribution carries no value- No TRUE VALUE, I should say. Especially NOW when it seems like anyone can sell records..

Enough pep-talk haha.. Regarding "FANTASTiC.", I've brought on the help of my fellow artists; #KELEGi, #MOMUSiQ & #CHUCCNORRiS..

Kelegi (Terrance, as I call him) is the skill behind my latest artwork; "Ride It Out, Run It Back", my SoudCloud header, avatars across all social media, etc. I've been blessed to have his help with the visual presence of my work- has come in clutch so many times, so I'm very appreciative of his time and effort in bringing the appearance of my work to where it is.. FANTASTiC. Haha..

Mo Musiq (SUPER PRODUCER) and I have developed a great chemistry that allows us to bring to you, what you hear. I haven't been able to duplicate such vibe with any other producer, so the content is authentic in it's feel- I'm very grateful for Mo and his art- Such an OUTSTANDiNG musician he is. But aye- somebody tell him he ain't gonna find an artist better than I on his beats. ON THE REAL! Hahaha..

Chucc Norris is not only a Utah native artist, but he is also of my maternity bloodline (#TUiTA). Though Chucc may be new to you, he's actually been with me since I first started years ago. My brother will soon have his debut single ready come 2017, so be on the lookout, my friends. I vouch for his sound, so take my word for it- you already know I'm good for it haha..

This was my last release of 2016- now avail for the NEW YEAR of 2017. Like I've mentioned before, 'twas a slow year for me (2016), but it ain't nothin' a yoko like me can't bounce back from. I'm here for a REASON- and you're favorite artist is only here for now. TRUST & BELiEVE. Thank you all ever so much. I LOVE YOU for your LOVE and support. UP n' UP YASELF!

FANTASTiC. #DARKHORSE

Fantastic (feat. Chucc Norris)

Before I get into anything, I do want to acknowledge the fact that I’ve been silent. NOT DEAD, just.. preoccupied as it were. My apologies for the delay, though. Time really flies when you’re in a rush, am I right? Haha..

It’s funny how things don’t always go according to plan. On the same note, it’s funny how things ALWAYS workout. For a while now I’ve dreamed of making music for a living, but the closer I’d get to that so called “dream”, the more I found that it was not the path for me. I used to envy many of my peers, but I’ve reached a point in which I can truly say that I’m happy I’m not them. No disrespect of course, but that's where I'm at.

The introduction to this release features one of my favorite rhymesayers of all time.. MF DOOM. He explains the reason for wearing a mask, and how Hip-Hop used to revolve around the music itself and not the image. The mask is worn in rebellion against the “system”, which is something I try to incorporate in my own music because it’s something I believe in very strongly. I’m a purist of sorts. As frustrating as the changes in the industry are, I accept and try hard to keep an open mind to stay hip- However, I can’t (and won’t) stray too far from what I feel is genuine and honest.

Obviously the instrumental used is not my own, but was used by Cam’ron- which is a classic. I'm taking note from Russ, who put out his version of a throwback record (T-Pain’s “I Can’t Believe It”). A few other artists are doin' the same with various old school instrumentals, so I figured why not? This was a fun project (as most are), and the instrumental itself brought back a lot of memories of when I was younger.. a lot younger. This was also sprung out in the midst of working on other projects. Knowing how long it has been since my release of “Ketchup”, ’twas a MUST that I interrupt what I’ve been working on to bring you this freestyle.

As far as the release goes, it will only be available for stream on Soundcloud and Bandcamp. Sorry to those who’re subscribers to other streaming services- I got you on the next one. TRUST & BELiEVE. Because this instrumental is NOT mine, I'd more than likely get into some trouble with a major record label for making money off their work haha..

Anyway, as always, THANK YOU for continuing to support despite my inconsistencies. I mean that with everything that makes up who I am. THANK YOU a million times over. ’Til NEXT TiME, my people! BLESSAWP!

P.S.

This song was made in honor of Mate Ma'a Tong (MMT) who competed at this year's RLWC (2017). Also in memory of my tokoua James Hingano and his family. 'Til we meet again, brother. OFA ATU.
