GIHE Deluxe Out Now: https://ovo-popcaan.ffm.to/greatishe_deluxe

Young Jamaican MC Popcaan burst onto the scene in 2010 on the biggest dancehall tune of the year, ‘Clarks’. As Vybz Kartel’s protege, the 23-year old quickly proved himself as one of the most talented up-and-coming vocalists in the genre, lending his distinctive voice to an arsenal of bashment hits, from ghetto laments to party smashers.

After a string of big records in 2011, from ‘Only Man She Want’ to ‘Raving’, Popcaan became the first dancehall artist since Sean Paul to have his track playlisted on the BBC and has just been tipped as one of their ‘Hot 20 for 2012′. He joined Mixpak in 2012 with his first collaborative single with Dre Skull, ‘Get Gyal Easy’, followed by his cut on the Kling Klang riddim, ‘So We Do It’, as well as ‘The System’ on the Loudspeaker Riddim.

In 2014 he will release his debut album on Mixpak, executive produced by Dre Skull and featuring additional productions from Dubbel Dutch, Anju Blaxx, Jamie YVP and Adde. The first single, ‘Everything Nice’, is out now.

OTTOLINE PRE-ORDER –– https://orcd.co/ottoline

"Desperate Times, Mediocre Measures" is a song that tackles the idea of the cyclical and corrosive nature of power structures across our societies - Hierarchical Structures that, like all structures in our reality, are made up of, and reinforced by people who find themselves, more often than not, enforcing the very corrupted elements of those structures, sometimes purely due to the fact that this can become the prime method of propping themselves up within that structure. How can one separate the agendas of massive faceless corporations from politics when the politicians need donations from those corporations to get ahead on a ballot?; to be able to afford to advertise themselves to the masses?; to be able to rent a tour bus?; to get in the position of power in the first place?
If the public servants rely so heavily on these corporations, then their agendas will inevitably become intertwined, and prioritised over the agendas of the public they are supposed to be serving, however good the initial intentions are of those who aspire to take office. This is the natural corrosion of any structure that has been around for a while, whether built with steel, or ideals, eventually it will need to be tended to before it collapses on top of whomever it plans on sheltering.
I find this to be true of things even down to the mind of a human individual - Every so often render repair work must be done to keep a structure strong. The song makes reference to that in a round about way, but don't feel obliged to concentrate on the words. In an era where an all encompassing God has lost its power to influence over the pervasive wants and needs of the individual, we find ourselves, ironically, in a time of deity-like absolutes that have just as much power to destroy the collective ideals that allowed for these progressive structures, destined to corrode, to even be built in the first place. You can't just smash it down and start over again; that, in practical terms, is equivalent to war and chaos. It's an important time for individuals to recognise the gods within themselves, to overcome the instinct to destroy out of fear, and instead build out of love; Something in our nature that can take the most trying times to learn how to excavate.
These times are desperate.
Hate is mediocre.
Violence is mediocre.
Absolutes are mediocre.
The song is out now.
It is from an upcoming album called "Ottoline"
Give it a listen if it pleases thee
