Looking for some “fun, urban, and bright” music?  Say hello to Meanna Juke, an up-and-coming singer/songwriter from the Bahamas. For the past five years, this insouciant vocalist has been wrapping her killer pipes around great melodies across a diverse array of genres.  Her latest mixtape, The Monkey Vendetta Volume 1, dropped on datpiff in 2012, and she has followed up its release with a great presence on social media.

Meanna was bitten by the music bug at the tender age of 10, when a rap battle among her schoolmates inspired her to start writing and recording songs.  As a teenager she wrote songs for the gospel group Aysta Chiq and appeared onstage alongside her sister and cousins.  Her next brush with fame came when she joined forces with MC DBiz to form the rap duo Head Bangers.  After rapper/mogul Flo Rida recruited DBiz for the crew White Frames, Meanna founded the recordwebby1 label Mean Monkey Entertainment and started recording as a solo artist.

Citing Salt n Peppa, MC Lyte, Nicki Minaj, Eve, and Trina as her influences, Meanna prides herself on her impetuous attitude and the originality of her music.  Through her appearances at open mic nights in her hometown of Freeport, she has earned a devoted fanbase of “ambitious and headstrong” women and men who identify with her forthright lyrical perspective.

 Looking back on her releases, Meanna observes: “I know that perfection is only attained within one’s imagination.”  Her latest mix tape, The Monkey Vendetta Vol. 1, came out online in 2012, with a follow-up in the can and ready for release.  Fans of rap, R&B and pop would be wise to keep an eye out for this rising young star.  And if you’re in the Bahamas, make sure you catch one of her live show so you can say you knew her when

Dash, is a Bahamian singer/songwriter born February 22nd 1987. After completing Aquinas College in 2005, Dash made the decision to pursue a career as a recording artist. He spent the next few years recording, performing, traveling and experimenting with different genres until he achieved an artistic breakthrough in the summer of 2010. After listening to Soul Makossa (performed by Mano Dibango, a saxophonist from Cameroon), Dash became captivated by its cross-cultural appeal and sought to echo this influence in his subsequent recordings.

Within a few months, Dash began crafting what would eventually become his debut album, ELECTRIC CIRCUS. It is a loose concept album built around the encounters of a nomadic band of gypsies, who on their travels expose the world to their circus talents. The album seeks to represent an expansive range of emotions that lie between introspection and aggression. Electric Circus also embraces the vibrant spirit of various world cultures in its themes, marrying those influences with modern music production techniques. The album’s alternative/pop sound is propelled by pulsating tribal drums, swirling electro synths, bombastic bass lines and funky staccato grooves. 

Much like the circus, Dash is an interesting and uniquely polished talent, driven by his own complexities as a performer. Personified in his work as a commanding ring master; he skillfully fuses R&B, Pop, Funk & Disco styles into a kaleidoscope of sound. He expresses an emotive writing style that paints vivid interpretations of love and desire with equal sensitivity and passion. Vocally, he possesses a nimble yet sophisticated tenor that rumbles smoothly in his lower register, yet soars with controlled abandon in his silky falsetto. 

The album’s first single, THE GREATEST SHOW is an intricately written urban/pop romper that invites listeners to be entertained by “the greatest show on earth!” Since its release in spring of 2011 it has received praise from both local and international media outlets. In a review for local magazine eLife242, writers of TheCSPerspective tagged Dash as a promising Bahamian talent, further regarding the single as “playful yet haunting”. The single has also been hailed as a “sleek and sexy Top40 Jam” by Art Nouveau Magazine, an Atlanta based publication who praised Dash for his innovation, noting that he "calls inspiration from greats like Prince & Stevie Wonder" while maintaining his own distinct character. The Greatest Show has also received notoriety for its lyrical content, after being awarded a semi-finalist placement in the International Songwriting Competition. 

Disco Gypsy, a disco/funk offering is projected as the next single for pop radio while Na Na Na Na will be geared towards urban radio.
