Badness is the powerful new collaboration between iconic Jamaican artist Ninjaman and Australian/UK producer Monkey Marc, released on Digikillaz.

A bass-heavy track that incorporates elements of hip hop and dancehall, the genre-blending nature of this song harkens back to a brief but formative time in the 90s when the cultures of American and Jamaican musics were more visibly intertwined. Ninjaman was a key player in that era, and his presence on Badness deepens the song’s connection to this important time in dancehall history.

Ninjaman, who is currently serving a life sentence for murder in Jamaica, infuses Badness with a cautionary message to the youth, telling them to reject a life of crime rather than meet his fate. Badness is a strong platform for the dancehall veteran’s warning, with potent lyrics like, 'Let me tell you this. Badness is a risk. Finger pon di trigger and you pull it and you miss'. 

When he founded his Jamaica All for Peace One Umbrella Movement community organization in 2008, Ninjaman said,
"Only a man like me who has lived the life I've lived can be a role model to these youths, and telling them that if they go the path of drugs, they will end up like this, or if they take up a gun, they will end up like that. I've been down that road ...and it's time for me to take up this cause to save the youths from a life that's not good. ... We know that violence will never be eliminated, but we can at least bring violence down".

Dameon Gayle of Warrior Films JA is currently filming the Badness music video in Kingston, Jamaica. An upcoming remix is in the works with UK dubstep pioneer and founder of Tectonic Records, Pinch, and UK dub poet, Rider Shafique.

Drop the bomb
Drop the bomb
Truths and rights I a teach to di nation
And mi a tell di youths stay far from guns and ammunition
Don't be wrong
Don't mek my mistake be yuh dungfall
When yuh behind the prison wall & a bawl
Listen this!

Now! 
Yuh neva born fi bad suh wah yuh bad fa then?
A who a trick you say yuh bad?
Nuh really matter then because
You only talk the talk just like the rapper dem 
and when a time fi walk di walk yuh body lack oxygen

Youths! Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
Nuh carry time out so nuh bawl for cree
The lawyer don't come court to work fi free
So if you naav nuh fee, bwoy do nuh bada plea

So live yuh likkle life like it's a souvenir
Nuh imitate the guys dem in the movies, yuh hear?
Dem gas you up like a balloon and now you're losing air
You're in a hurry fi go hell, the devil will be there
Watch yuh likkle life, it's like say you nuh care
Jungle justice, dem will hang you like a chandelier
And the cops they will give you a bangle fi wear
And a this unu fi hear

So mek mi tell you this
Badness is a risk
Finger pon di trigger and you pull it and you miss
It never firm inna yuh fist
You mash up all yuh wrist
Yuh wanted pon the list
Yuh madda and yuh fadda, everybody you a diss
Wanna be extortionist, waa live big?
And a kiss kiss up yuh teeth like it a Wrigley’s
‘Bout you a come fi mi food and yuh nuh business
But a better yuh cool you fool, cos

Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
Nuh carry time out so nuh bawl for cree
The lawyer don't come court to work fi free
Suh if you naav nuh fee, bwoy do nuh bada plea
Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
Nuh carry time out so nuh bawl for cree
Nuh dead nuh come back from di cemetery
Yuh haffi born fi this

Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
Nuh carry time out so nuh bawl for cree
Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee

Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
Nuh carry time out so nuh bawl for cree
Badness anuh game, it naav nuh referee
