Empress look what I brought for you
Marijuana a glisten in the morning dew

She put her lips to my blunt and kiss it
No excuse when she roll she spliff
For she don’t even care if it smudge no lipstick
Naa refuse that a how she rep
She make sure I have some greens with it when I sip it
Then she roll off and roll up ma ting
And make me know that anyhow I put it in ma lyrics then
Only some girls goin’ comprehend

No she nuh agree wid dem policy so she bun her trees
No apologies never needed
Pon her property no it never cease so she get her peace
And her release when she weeded
Like it when it cure but she have a pree, prefer when it green
Have more THC when she steaming
When me go country and me come back in
She nuh ask a ting ‘cause she know wah me bring

Ohh she love my herb etiquette
How I roll it up so delicate
How I naa take a draw before she get a hit
How me drive in from far and me alone pon the road jussa move with
My light and my music with
The thought of you just waiting make me reach home safely
Navigate me baby, I know it’s on you brain
When you hear these statements and this message placement
No need to explain what I saying

So now she say she grown up
And she growing her own from the ground up
From the seed to the stalk ‘til the pound drop
And now a me make demands when I show up
Then I set sail as I inhale
The surplus is not for sale
Its purpose it much more real
So courteous with how she deal it
But it increase her feeling when a me build it

She wet it and seal it

Protoje - No Lipstick

Got me, got me bad, mashing up my meds

No lie, I say the moment is right
I hoping you let me know tonight so that I
Can put in the overtime
I found someone for I, Fari, no lie
I say the moment is right
I hoping you let me know tonight so that I
Can put in the overtime, can put in the overtime

‘Cause she no impressed by the vanity
And all that it brings
Diamond clusters and all o’ the bling
Let us get away, I’ll give you all o’ the things
You’re my precious like in ‘Lord of the Rings’
And I’ll put the necessary ring pon you finger
To the right of you pinky deh
Pon you left hand
You know the wedding band, get a bridesmaid
Get a perfect wedding dress in your size made

Eyes on eyes, I eyes the prize beside me
Side by side in the ride we ride
Chick weh ride or die a play from the iPod I
LOX tune, me girl grow locks too
She on track with me tracks too, take me out of bad mood
Crush it up and roll Backwood
Intelligence she got too
Spirituality intact too, so you know I had to

And now she pretty in pink with a witty instinct
As I roll through the city of Kingston
A talk me a talk the truth, car tint so them can’t see who
And she wink as the stink hit the lids of her eyes while she staring
At me steering, hit clutch, shift gear in
No I lying, no clutch, tiptronic as the whip
Skip thru every room in the traffic

After blasting onto the scene in 2010 on the biggest dancehall tune of the year, “Clarks,” Portmore's Popcaan has since proved himself as one of the most talented up-and-coming vocalists in the genre. Coming up as Vybz Kartel's protégé, this year the 23 year old has lent his distinctive voice to an arsenal of bashment hits, from ghetto laments to party smashers. Most recently, this past fall Popcaan was the first dancehall artist since Sean Paul to have his track playlisted on the BBC and big things are set to follow for the “Raving King.”  
 
2012 sees Popskull team up with Dre Skull for a series of Mixpak releases, the first being the single “Get Gyal Easy.” Dre Skull's shaking bass crescendos and minor key string stabs provide the backbone for an emotional gallis anthem, a slow-burning and euphoric bashment tune that showcases Popcaan's versatile singjay style.  BBC 1xtra has tapped the single to feature in their Hot 20 of 2012 special airing on January 1st and will follow by keeping the track on their playlist – a strong start for 2012. 
 
This is Mixpak keeping its bond with Jamaica as tight as ever.

Lyrics for:
'This is NOT a Marijuana Song' by Protoje, Produced by Niko Browne for LifeLine Music. 2012

And so it was said that the herb be provided for I&I 

They don't want you to know Marijuana
Ites up and be Free
Jah so Let it be

Herb smoke keep i sane, take my pain 
Stop migraine, so much i gain, so why blame?
I'm saying Jah might bring the right strain 
To my brain fi chop lightning like I-Wayne
Cause man deh ya pon the Lava Ground
And if u soft like a guava u can't come round
This part of Town, I tell unuh the thought alone
A could a Sparta it falter down
REVIVAL Hallelujah it start up now
Reprisal fi the luu Jah it watered down, Naa Pardon none

What deh in a  mi garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

This is not Marijuana music
Just a Message from the ones that use it
Don't abuse it cause a mind that's fertile
Brings forth something that's worthwhile 
Know your worth child
Cause no officer alive coulda look in a ma eyes 
And see what i prophesy 
My mind it forever occupies, thoughts of.........
Hold ma talk cause spies amongst us
If trouble did a trouble me, well that mi chalice woulda bubbly
drop in a one load then double it

What deh in a me garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

Listen up, the truth is to be told
Open your eyes there is beauty to behold
What is the new if u consider the old
Why gain the world and no consider your soul 
What is the cloud if u understand the lining
Who is the king if u consider the LIneage
You know its H.I.M so no continue deny him
Is it freestyle if i consider the Line 
Then configure the timing adjust to fit the rhyme scheme
With no trouble to my mind really?
Seal It

I say wah deh in a me garden strong
This is not a Marijuana Song

This Is Not A Marijuana Song

KINGSTON, JAMAICA - There is mounting anticipation for Jah9's debut album, New Name, slated for release later this year.  Now her fans will be rewarded for their patience with the smoothly produced title track by Rory "Stone Love" Gilligan.

'New Name' has an anthem quality, with Jah9's trademark clarity of voice, enunciation and solemnness of message all colliding in a milestone piece of music. If four and a half minutes could begin to capture the magnetism of Rastafari for this rising generation, 'New Name' would be it.

The song will be available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon and all major distribution sites.

Say them all have an argument
So I’m calm, I not harming them

And this girl is crying over me, dying over me, she wants me to know
This girl is holding on and she's bold enough to say she naa let me go
Next girl pree the scene and try intervene, what does she want me to do
Ex-girl keep sweating me, she naa set me free, she naa let me be

Me say me have a problem
Kinda no want fi have them
Yet mi kinda no want fi solve them
Woman I want fi have them in numbers, that’s plural
Whether uptown to rural
And not to say I can't settle down
Just trying to make u know I can’t settle now
I jussa make u know that I tried the monogamy
But I couldn’t take all a the naggin’ in ma noggin’ and

She say she kick sneakers off again
Her speakers on again
My CD is on again, gwaan again
Blunt no deh a yard again
You know she a order dem
No smoke with no other man other than
She say she better than all o’ dem
So me fi leff all o’ dem
and if me leff all o’ dem calling and
Coming over ma yard again and as it reach morning then
You know say dem gone again, argument

All have an argument
So I’m calm, I not harming them
Yet they all have an argument

Where Is the Love? (feat. Eve)

Ras Attitude - Don't be afraid to pray

LYRICS:

And She didn’t know how to tell him
She was In love with a Rasta Man
Fire was burning and Burning
To let out what she was holding In

I know her story before she say it
Daddy just want her Co-operate
Find somebody that’s corporate 
Suit and Tie more appropriate
Him say him naa make him daughter stray
But reggae music she start fi play it
Ital food when she sort her plate
Militant yute wah she want fi date
And that is what she need
Marcus Garvey she start fi read
Hair stop comb and it start look neat
SO him want keep her off the street from who she with
And that be me
More than a natty head is what she see
NO lovers leap is not for me
And she nuh waa keep it a secret but she cant tell him who she sleep with


And she wants to be free 
From all this captivity 
So she’ll be who she will be
They cant tell her who she need
They cant tell her who she want  who she can’t
She talk her owner chant chart her owner path 
And follow her owner heart
Call me over her own apartment
Now as I answer the phone that’s the tone she start with
She know say she don’t fi part with 
One Like I even though so much impart it
So she haffi do her owner thing
Cause she can never live life for them
Knowing that she would look back when
To the time weh she couldn’t explain to him cause then

Rasta Love ft. Ky-mani Marley

A short story based on the events of May 23rd, 2010, when the Jamaican government deployed its military into Tivoli Gardens in the capital city of Kingston.
Premier Nov 5th.

Ey, ey
Watch ya dread
Hey hey

Kingston, be wise
Kingston, free up your mind
Kingston, just be wise
Kingston, free up the I, yeah

When the city a go click-clack-blow, you bet
Government fingers and tic-tac-toes in it
And while they working on the X's and O's
I'm living I-N-I like I'm Mister Kamoze
No surprise when they sending foes to me
Opposite of when plain clothes approaching me
Follow they rules is what they propose to me
Selling they souls for what is owed, you see
Nothing is owed, nothing is promised 
Never know the government woulda run up inna them garrison
Without no sorry, without excuse
Soldier man inna them lorry, everybody get abused, and
Everybody have them views now
The media is owned so know where you get your news from
And the blood deh pon them shoes now
When them walking it trace
Look them hard in them face
And say

Kingston, be wise
Kingston, free up your mind
Kingston, just be wise, for me
Kingston, free up the violence

Now all the damage can't quantify
Roy Rayon couldn't sanctify 
Say a nuff a dem them send fi die
So the city a intensify
Say the ghetto them a gentrify
Well I, nobody nuh identify
Nuff bodies unidentified and just a lie deh
Then where the gun deh? Dead pon Saturday 
Buried Sunday like Solomon Grundy
Like a no Sons of Solomon them have down deh
Leonard Howell, Pinnacle and them land deh
Subdivision, them deal it underhand deh
So learn it 'cause them come back with dem plan deh
So tell me how far do you wanna go now, hey
'Cause them will ratta-tatta-tatta when u pow-pow-pow

ROAD HAFFI TEK ON--POPCAAN- OVERTIME RIDDIM

Track 9 from Jah9's debut album, 'New Name'.

Available on Itunes: itunes.apple.com/us/album/new-nam…tion/id599702007

Written by Janine "Jah9" Cunningham
Produced by Rorystonelove

LYRICS

It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair 
for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes
Generations have grown in the same situation: 
tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes
The people never have enough and children are born fatherless 
and families have no one to rely on
so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears
the pride needs defending by a lion

will you be the one for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep looking forward and never retreat


in this jungle out there with so many limitations
set intentionally just for us to fail
with your plans in motion and standing in your power
and strength from your lioness you’re bound to prevail
the mission is for those who can endure
and wont stand for injustice and oppression no more
and the journey is for everyone to share
when the lions are leading there is nothing to fear

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

A future for the youth must be priority
Establishing a nation where they all will be free
To focus on spiritual cultivation 
and find themselves through ancient preparation

in this jungle out there some people mek the evil rule dem nature 
turning life into a rat race
and the youths dem head a burn cause the only thing they’re learning 
from those people’s how to rob you to your face
instead of giving them guidance and encouragement
you’re provoking them daily giving rise to resent
but the tension that they’re building up inside 
will find direction and purpose in the lion pride

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

oh ‘cause it’s a jungle out there

interlude

A future for the youth must be priority
Establishing a nation where they all will be free
So the lionesses rise to the occasion
And nurture them with conscious meditation


It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair 
for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes
Generations have grown in the same situation: 
tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes
The people never have enough and children are born fatherless 
and families have no one to rely on
so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears
the pride needs defending by a lion
