Lyrics:

"This one's fi all di politician dem
Accurate

Inna you face dem a smile up
Behind you back a money dem a pile up
Try fi start you business and dem quick fi spoil up

Well done, well done, mr politician man
U done wonderful job a tear down we country demolition man
Well done, well done, mr politician man
U done such a great job a sellin out we country Wid u business plan

U fi get a round of applause
Fi all the work u doin
Decisions weh u mek weh lef di country inna ruins yo
Strictly personal gain u persuing
So the tax rate higher than the planes weh flew in
Fi go mek u deal wid IMF
Now we nah no bauxite nor no sugar cane left
The hotels and the beaches the spanish dem go screechie mi nuh know a how u dweet but all mi haffi say is well done

U keep poverty an unemployment on the rise
Corruption an not to mention the lies
Election a when the tension arrive
So u buy we Kentucky not to mention the fries
Anyting fi secure you vote
An then u rob the people fi secure u boat
Fi go a goat island weh the chinese own di whole jamaica is a chinese loan

If inflation was a test u woulda get A plus
So when me mek the US an di exchange rate buck
Caw the dollar gettin weaker
An the solar light bill it woulda cheaper
But a JPS u prefer keep ya
Ebaneezer, so u scruge pon di ghetto people, weh a starve an every year u buy a better vehicle,
Di tings u do a beat we bad
But still u manage to keep u job
Suh mi a tell u well done..."

Kabaka Pyramid - Well Done

We're proud to premiere Eufórquestra's latest track, "Solutions Dub," dubbed by J Dubby, originally from the band's most recent album, FIRE, and featuring Elliot Martin of John Brown's Body on vocals.

Solutions Dub

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

Cubiculo Records teams up again with the french producer B-No. After his first release on vinyl featuring the veteran Trevor Junior with “People Are Changing”now comes the time for his second release on our imprint.

B-No comes again with one of his classic riddim styles, a mixture between the early digital and rub-a-dub.

On Side A comes the french singer Peter Youthman with “Sad Feeling”, a really conscious and powerful tune with focus on sadness and problems regarding homeless people.  Side B features the upcoming american singer Tuli Ranks with his strong rub-a-dub and deejay influences he opposites to “Sad Feeling” and unleashes some love lyrics on “Over Me”.

The artwork tries and conotate the “Sad Feeling” with Night and side B “Over Me” with Day and sun and shows the contrast between both lyrics.

Side A features two tracks, vocal and riddim, where on Side B features an extended version with dub.

Marsha Ambrosius - Have You Ever | We Remember Dennis Brown

Download: smarturl.it/MAHaveYouEver

February 1st, marked the late reggae and lover's rock icon Dennis Brown's 59th birthday. Hailed by NPR Morning Edition as one of the 50 great voices of all time and by Bob Marley as one of the best reggae singers in the world - the revered Jamaican icon began his recording career at the tender age of 11 and has more than 75 albums to date. Even though he passed away at the early age of 42, his music and legacy lives on.

VP Records, reggae's leading distributor and label, will pay homage this spring with an extensive tribute album We Remember Dennis Brown of his timeless hits covered by some reggae and r&b's most renowned artists today. Each song was re-produced by Jamaican legend Clive Hunt with his all-star team of musicians to give each song an authentic yet fresh feel.

To celebrate the icon during his birthday month, VP Records will reveal one song from the album every Friday for the next five weeks - including "Caress Me Girl" on Feb 5 from one of Jamaica's brightest voices Romain Virgo, "Milk & Honey" on Feb 12 by roots reggae rockers Raging Fyah, "Bloody City" on Feb 19 from the Caribbean's soulful songstress Jah9, "Promised Land" on Feb 26 from Hawaiian reggae band The Green and "Have You Ever" on Mar 4 by R&B powerhouse Marsha Ambrosius.

In addition to these power hitters, We Remember Dennis Brown will feature an array of singers from Brown's native country and across the globe who he influenced. Jamaica's latest crop of stars (including Jah Cure, Gyptian, Chronixx and Jesse Royal) as well as the island's icons who worked with Brown (like reggae vocalists Bushman and Freddie McGregor) all offer their contributions. Freddie's son Chino McGregor and Christopher Ellis, the talented UK-based singer and offspring of Alton Ellis (another one of Brown's musical mentors and confidants), both deliver powerful renditions of Brown's classics. New Zealand rockers also create a breezy rendition of "If I Had The World." The worldly collection proves that his universal sound transcends all boundaries of time, race and creed. Each artist adds their own original flair to Brown's profound soul-stirring sound - touching the hearts of new and old fans alike on this unique multi-disc collection. We Remember Dennis Brown will include deluxe packaging as well as extensive liner notes on the belated legend.

DENNIS BROWN
Dennis Brown was greatly influenced by American balladeers such as Sam Cooke, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin as well as Jamaican singers like Delroy Wilson and John Holt. At only 12-years-old, he cut his first hit "No Man Is An Island" at Clement "Coxsone" Dodd's famous Studio One. Within the years, he was a force to be reckoned with musically - dubbed the "Boy Wonder of Jamaica" and "Crown Prince of Reggae." Before he was 16, he had worked with Jamaica's top recording artists (Alton Ellis, Horace Andy) and producers of the time (Prince Buster, Dennis Alcapone, Winston "Niney" Holness and Vincent "Randy" Chin). In the 1970s, he worked closely with producer Joe Gibbs and released multiple albums. One of the album's songs "Money in my Pocket," peaked at #14 on UK Top 40 chart becoming one of the biggest international hits in Jamaica's history. This success landed him the cover of the NME's February 1979 issue. Enthusiastically adapting to the new dancehall era, Brown released a huge amount of work throughout the 1980s recording with genre's major producers like King Jammy on Brown's 1986 album The Exit and Gussie Clarke in 1989 with the Gregory Isaacs duet "Big All Round" and the album Unchallenged. He continued to record prolifically in the 1990s before his passing. His 1994 album Light My Fire and 2001 release Let Me Be the One were both nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album.

Jamaica is on the verge of a new sound: One that is as informed by the island’s own creations, reggae and dancehall, as it is by hip-hop and all manner of global influence. Stepping boldly into this future comes Royal Blu, whose multi-faceted vocal delivery finds him easily maneuvering between the roles of a rapper, dancehall deejay and singer. For his second single of 2019, Blu connects once more with beatmaker J.L.L. (producer of his recent single “Style and Pattern”) for “Hype,” a self-assured commentary on the notions of hype, hard work and talent. “Hype” is out May 31 through Delicious Vinyl Island, which will release Royal Blu’s as-yet untitled EP later this year.
