SNOOP-LION
SNOOP DOGG UPDATE
Snoop Dogg has change species, and musical direction (you could argue that he’s not rapped for years but for arguments sake lets just say he has), as he has taken up the new mantra of SNOOP LION, to go with his new reggae direction.
From his ‘Deep Cover’ beginnings as a young sidekick with Dr Dre, Snoop’s career has seen him star on two of the 90′s greatest hip-hop albums (Dre’s The Chronic and Snoop’s own Doggystyle) and, more recently, work alongside Katy Perry and Big Time Rush.
With Reincarnated, Snoop looks to reclaim the more revered moments of his career like what he saw in the 90′s, hopefully putting his shameless turns on a number of pop tracks over the past few years behind him.
This new reggae direction has thankfully helped Snoop put another few things behind him, as the enlightenment of Rastafarianism, (yes he’s changed faith too) and the music it helps him create, has helped him leave behind his bad boy, gangster image.
Gone are tracks like ‘Murder Was The Case’ and ‘Serial Killa’ and instead Snoop is singing songs like ‘No Guns Allowed.’
Recorded in Jamaica, with the blessing of Bob Marley’s family given to him, Reincarnated, will be released thorugh Snoop’s own Doggystyle label later this year. The first single from the album, ‘La La La’, is out now.

–Bob Marley, August 1979
We remember the brilliant and evocative music Bob Marley gave the world; music that stretches back over nearly two decades and still remains timeless and universal. Marley has been called “the first Third World superstar,” “Rasta Prophet,” “visionary,” and” “revolutionary artist.” These accolades were not mere hyperbole. Marley was one of the most charismatic and challenging performers of our time.
Bob Marley’s career stretched back over twenty years. During that time Marley’s growing style encompassed every aspect in the rise of Jamaican music, from ska to contemporary reggae. That growth was well reflected in the maturity of the Wailers’ music.
Bob’s first recording attempts came at the beginning of the Sixties. His first two tunes, cut as a solo artist, meant nothing in commercial terms and it wasn’t until 1964, as a founding member of a group called the Wailing Wailers, that Bob first hit the Jamaican charts.
The record was “Simmer Down,” and over the next few years the Wailing Wailers — Bob, Peter Mclntosh and Bunny Livingston, the nucleus of the group — put out some 30 sides that properly established them as one of the hottest groups in Jamaica. Mclntosh later shortened his surname to Tosh while Livingston is now called Bunny Wailer.
Despite their popularity, the economics of keeping the group together proved too much and the two other members, Junior Braithwaite and Beverley Kelso, left the group. At the same time Bob joined his mother in the United States. This marked the end of the Wailing Wailers, Chapter One.
Marley’s stay in America was short-lived, however, and he returned to Jamaica to join up again with Peter and Bunny. By the end of the Sixties, with the legendary reggae producer Lee “Scratch” Perry at the mixing desk, The Wailers were again back at the top in Jamaica. The combination of the Wailers and Perry resulted in some of the finest music the band ever made. Tracks like “Soul Rebel,” “Duppy Conquerer,” “400 Years,” and “Small Axe” were not only classics, but they defined the future direction of reggae.
It’s difficult to properly understand Bob Marley’s music without considering Rastafari. His spiritual beliefs are too well known to necessitate further explanation. It must be stated, however, that Rastafari is at the very core of the Wailers’ music.
In 1970 Aston Familyman Barrett and his brother Carlton (bass and drums, respectively) joined the Wailers. They came to the band unchallenged as Jamaica’s HARDEST rhythm section; a reputation that was to remain undiminished during the following decade. Meanwhile, the band’s own reputation was, at the start of the Seventies, an extraordinary one throughout the Caribbean. However, the band was still unknown internationally.
That was to change in 1972 when the Wailers signed to Island Records. It was a revolutionary move for an international record company and a reggae band. For the first time a reggae band had access to the best recording facilities and were treated in the same way as a rock group. Before the Wailers signed to Island, it was considered that reggae sold only on singles and cheap compilation albums. The Wailer’s first album, Catch A Fire broke all the rules: it was beautifully packaged and heavily promoted. And it was the start of a long climb to international fame and recognition.
The Catch A Fire album was followed a year later by Burnin’, an LP that included some of the band’s older songs, such as “Duppy Conquerer,” “Small Axe,” and “Put In On,” together with tracks like “Get Up Stand Up” and “I Shot The Sheriff” (which was also recorded by Eric Clapton, who had a #1 hit with it in America).
In 1975 Bob Marley & The Wailers released the extraordinary Natty Dread album, and toured Europe that summer. The shows were recorded and the subsequent live album, together with the single, “No Woman No Cry,” both made the UK charts. By that time Bunny and Peter had officially left the band to pursue their own solo careers.
Rastaman Vibration, the follow-up album in 1976, cracked the American charts. It was, for many, the clearest exposition yet of Marley’s music and beliefs, including such tracks as “Crazy Baldhead,” “Johnny Was,” “Who The Cap Fit” and, perhaps most significantly of all, “War,” the Iyrics of which were taken from a speech by Emperor Haile Selassie.
In 1977 Exodus was released, which established Marley’s international superstar status. It remained on the British charts for 56 straight weeks, and netted three UK hit singles, “Exodus,” “Waiting In Vain,” and “Jamming.”
In 1978 the band released Kaya, which hit number four on the UK chart the week of its release. That album saw Marley in a different mood — Kaya was an album of love songs, and, of course, homages to the power of ganja.
There were two more events in 1978, both of which were of extraordinary significance to Marley. In April that year he returned to Jamaica (he had left in 1976 after the shooting that had almost cost him his life), to play the One Love Peace Concert in front of the Prime Minister Michael Manley, and the then Leader of the Opposition Edward Seaga. And at the end of the year he visited Africa for the first time, going initially to Kenya and then on to Ethiopia, spiritual home of Rastafari.
Marley returned to Africa in 1980 at the official initation of the Government of Zimbabwe to play at that country’s Independence Ceremony. It was the greatest honor afforded the band, and one which underlined the Wailers’ importance in the Third World.
In 1979 the Survival LP was released. A European tour came the following year: the band broke festival records throughout the continent, including a 100,000 capacity show in Milan. Bob Marley & the Wailers were now the most important band on the road that year and the new Uprising album hit every chart in Europe. It was a period of maximum optimism and plans were being made for an American tour, an opening slot with Stevie Wonder for the following winter.
At the end of the European tour, Bob Marley & The Wailers went to America. Bob played two shows at Madison Square Garden but, immediately afterwards he was seriously ill. Cancer was diagnosed.
Marley fought the disease for eight months. The battle, however, proved to be too much. He died in a Miami Hospital on May 11,1981.
A month before the end Bob was awarded Jamaica’s Order of Merit, the nations’ third highest honor, in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the country’s culture.
On Thursday, May 23,1981, the Honorable Robert Nesta Marley was given an official funeral by the people of Jamaica. Following the funeral — attended by both the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition — Bob’s body was taken to his birthplace where it now rests in a mausoleum. Bob Marley was 36 years old. His legend lives on.

The Rise and Rise of Afrobeats
First broadcast Jan 2012
BBC RADIO 1Xtra
Presenter/DJ Edu
Producer/Bernard P Achampong
Conceived/Bernard P Achampong
1Xtra’s DJ Edu explains all about Afrobeats, the fast emerging African music genre. Featuring leading Afrobeats artists including D’Banj – Nigerian superstar signed to Kanye West’s label, Sarkodie – Ghana’s fastest rapper and Black Coffee – the South African House Music legend, plus personal insights from Donae’O, Sway, Sean Paul, Estelle and Tinchy Stryder.
Over the last eighteen months there has been an Afrobeats explosion in nightclubs and it is also making its way onto our airwaves. What was once a relatively private affair confined to West African weddings seems to have escaped and leaked into the mainstream.
Afrobeats has close relationships with already familiar urban music genres. The UK Funky House scene planted the rhythmic seeds for the exuberant and infectious Afrobeats tribal motifs. It is as if artists like Donae’O and Gracious K were laying down the welcome mat for their older brothers from overseas.
The lyrical foundation of patois and ethnic slang in reggae and dancehall also assisted Afrobeats’ former stumbling block – Pidgin and broken English, as well as its many, many individual languages.
There is a wider Afro-Cool cultural movement which covers fashion, film and the arts. Africa has benefited from the heavy investment from China and India and its burgeoning telecommunications industry – Africa has more mobile phone subscribers than Europe.
The effect of a more affluent African continent reflects on Africans closer to home. There has been a rise in African pride and identity – supported by high profile music role models: Tinie Tempah, Dizzee Rascal, Tinchy Stryder, Taio Cruz, Sway, Estelle, Lethal B…the list could continue. Peer successes are influential and dancing to their heritage music is how young British African celebrate their significance.
The Rise and Rise of Afrobeats ties all these strands together in a fun, fast feature which will keep your feet tapping until the very last beat.

Kept this on the hush . but its time to let you know ive been working with S-DEE MUZIK PRODUCTION/MANAGEMENT in ghana for the last few months S-DEE MUZIK has worked with international artists i.e KARAMANTI jamaica CLEO jamaica BLAKK SOULJA ghana Keron Williams Canada we are also in plans to work with other up and coming artists inc don g of jamaica . so on reggae reggae source i will be playing more exclusive productions from africa with worldwide artists c.e.o Strike Dee . this coming wednesday i will be playing the u.k exclusive of Keron Williams tracks produced by strike dee
Since the release of her single “African song” for Ghana based record label S-Dee Music, Karamanti’s brand has climbed significantly in the West African nation. In addition to getting steady radio rotation for not just “African song” but other Karamanti tracks as well, she is also being approached by several artists and producers from the region desiring to work with her.
Based on the rapid growth of brand Karamanti, the producer, Strike Dee, who is also a media personality and disc jockey, has designed a series of T-shirts which are being called “Karamanti African song t-shirt”. They are being sold to the public and the general consensus is that since the launch they have been getting good support.
ANY PERSON WORLDWIDE WANTING TO WORK WITH S-DEE MUZIK SHOULD CONTACT THE MANAGEMENT: S-DEE MUZIK:
EMAIL: strikedee@rocketmail.com or me at accraunited@gmx.com we have productions for you
