This is Buju Banton on the Fat Joe and Jadakiss podcast, promoting his new single Butterflies from his latest album. I cannot wait to see him live in concert. He remains one of the most gifted Jamaican lyricists in both dancehall and reggae. His private life is a separate matter, at this point we are here for the music, and this is a massive tune. The first person to give me the correct answer on this timeline will either get a book or a bottle of fine whisky, your choice. What riddim did Buju Banton use for his new single Butterflies?

This was one of the most emotional moments in the history of reggae dancehall music. The day the greatest reggae DJ of all time was crowned by another great DJ. This was Daddy U-Roy being honoured and crowned by the legendary Shabba Ranks. U-Roy did not just influence reggae DJing and dancehall music, he defined them. He was the foundation, the blueprint, the godfather of the entire dancehall culture. Every deejay who came after him walked through the door that he opened. David Rodigan introduced him to the audience on this historic day, and many greats were there, including iconic sound system selector Rory Stonelove, to honour this great man and celebrate a living pillar of Jamaican music history. It was a moment of deep respect for one of the true architects of reggae dancehall culture. Then Shabba Ranks performed his famous dancehall anthem about respecting the elders and pioneers of reggae DJ culture titled, Respect. In the song, Shabba pays tribute to foundation artists such as U-Roy, recognising the legends who built the foundation of reggae dancehall music long before the new generation arrived. Daddy U-Roy was crowned by Shabba Ranks on 29 November 2019 at the Reeewind 10th Anniversary event at Club Amazura in Queens, New York. The emotional tribute was organised by Irish and Chin Promotions. It was a powerful moment of respect, humility, and acknowledgement from one great to another. Daddy U-Roy died on 17 February 2021 in Kingston, Jamaica, at the age of 78. Rest in Peace Daddy U-Roy, may your soul continue to rest in peace. I have looped one of my favourite reggae dancehall songs by Daddy U-Roy from the early 1980s, called Jah Jah Call You, at the end of the video. A timeless classic from one of the true foundations of reggae and dancehall culture.

Zimbabwe’s greatest reggae dancehall singer, Winky D, has released one of the best reggae songs ever written by a Zimbabwean artist, titled Propaganda. Winky D is the people’s musical voice—he sings about the suffering of Zimbabweans and goes against the grain of artists who sing to please the regime. The song was produced by one of the biggest international reggae sound system selectors and music producers, Dynamq (real name Kennedy Ongele Lorya), who originally comes from South Sudan. Winky D has an Extended Play album called Pabho, and you can purchase or stream it through the following platforms: Qobuz, Apple Music, or Amazon Music. More life to this lyrical genius who has become the conscience of the nation’s youths! Propaganda link👇🏿

Good afternoon Tafadzwa Masias Your wish is my command. Here is Buju Banton performing his classic song Not An Easy Road from the album ’Til Shiloh, released in 1995. The album was produced by Donovan Germain of Penthouse Records. ’Til Shiloh marked Buju’s decisive point of departure from hardcore dancehall into conscious reggae, rooted in introspection, spirituality, and social reflection. It was a pivotal moment in his career, signalling artistic and personal maturity. ’Til Shiloh means “until peace” or “on the journey toward peace and spiritual fulfilment.” By choosing this title, Buju Banton was signalling a personal and spiritual journey away from raw dancehall bravado toward conscious reggae, reflection, and moral struggle, a journey defined by perseverance through hardship in pursuit of higher truth. enjoy

“Rivers of Babylon” was a global smash for Boney M. in 1978, reworking the reggae classic first recorded by The Melodians in 1970 and drawing on Psalm 137 as well as Jamaican Rastafarian tradition. Produced by Frank Farian, Boney M.’s disco-reggae version became one of the best-selling singles in European chart history, spending five weeks at #1 in the UK. Its fusion of spiritual imagery, pop melody and danceable production helped turn it into one of the group’s defining hits.

As the Africa Executive Producer for Sky High Music, I introduced this song to Zimbabwe in 1992, I was only 21 years old. It was produced by my mentor and elder, Sky High, a Jamaican who managed the live shows for Bob Marley’s children. In 1992, I gave the song, Remand Centre, to William Jah B Sinclair of Stereo One International, and he popularised it. It contains a line that says, “Oh, the agony centre,” which led to Rumours Nite Spot where Jah B and Stero One had a residence being referred to as the Agony Centre. The song was performed by a Jamaican group called Fire Facts. This song is iconic in Zimbabwe’s dancehall culture! Many have asked how Oliver Mtukudzi created all the music for my documentary films and refused to accept payment. Our music was distributed in Zimbabwe by Record and Tape Promotions, which also handled the work of legends like Leonard Dembo and Oliver Mtukudzi. That is how I met Oliver Mtukudzi and Leonard Dembo. Anyone who doesn’t know Remand Centre from the 1990s was not part of the dancehall culture from that era. Perhaps one day I will write a book about this particular journey and how it intertwined with my journalism career.

"London Calling" was released in 1979 as the title track and lead single from The Clash's third studio album, London Calling. Produced by Guy Stevens, the song fused punk rock with reggae, rockabilly, ska and other influences, showcasing the band's increasingly diverse musical style. It reached No. 11 on the UK Singles Chart. The song was also released as a single in the United States, although it failed to enter the Billboard Hot 100. Despite its relatively modest chart performance, "London Calling" became one of The Clash's most iconic songs and has since been regarded as one of the defining recordings of the punk era.

The Eagles are heading back to Buffalo for the first time since 2019, and that stadium will always be tied to one of the most legendary plays in franchise history. It was in 1990 as the ball was on the Eagles’ own 5 yard line. Randall Cunningham is in Hall of Famer Bruce Smith arms in the endzone but instead of taking the safety, he ducks and launches a prayer downfield to Fred Barnett. Barnett goes up, hauls it in, and takes it to the house. That 95 yard touchdown is the second longest play in Eagles history and one of the most iconic moments this team has ever produced.

🔥 50 YEARS OF DESTROYER 🔥 By the time KISS stepped into the studio to record Destroyer, the band had already ignited a movement on stages around the world with the success of Alive!. Now expectations were higher, the spotlight brighter, and the band knew the next record had to push everything further. With producer Bob Ezrin, KISS did exactly that. Destroyer was bold, dramatic, and unexpected. At first, the reaction was uncertain. The album surprised people, and some didn’t quite know what to make of it. But real rock 'n' roll has a way of proving itself over time. Song by song, Destroyer caught fire. “Detroit Rock City.” “God of Thunder.” “Shout It Out Loud.” “Beth.” Ultimately, the album exploded — becoming one of the defining records of the KISS legacy and a cornerstone of rock history. Fifty years later, Destroyer still stands as a testament to a band that never played it safe, and to the power of rock & roll that only grows louder with time ⚡️ Listen here:

I am saddened to hear of the passing of Jamaican reggae music legend and international superstar Jimmy Cliff, whose real name was James Chambers. He was 81 years old, and he died from pneumonia after suffering a stroke. I grew up on his music, with my parents playing it in the 1970s and 1980s when I was a young boy in Murewa. I remember being in grade six in 1983, wondering who wrote No Woman, No Cry between him and Bob Marley because both sang it with such gusto. I only learnt later that it was written by Marley, who gave the credit to “Tata” Ford, his childhood friend from Trench Town, so that Ford could use the royalties to run a soup kitchen for the poor in Trenchtown. Jimmy Cliff became known outside the reggae movement with Many Rivers to Cross and other classics like You Can Get It If You Really Want. But what placed him at the intersection of global music and film was his hit song The Harder They Come, which was the soundtrack to the movie of the same name. Jimmy Cliff was the star of that film. He played the lead character, Ivanhoe “Ivan” Martin, in the 1972 Jamaican crime drama. The film made him an international icon and helped introduce reggae culture to the rest of the world before Bob Marley emerged as the first Third World global superstar from reggae. However, Cliff was already touring internationally in the late 1960s, and his performance of Many Rivers to Cross is often credited with opening doors for Jamaican music globally. He was one of the few Jamaican artists to receive the Order of Merit, Jamaica’s third-highest national honour, recognising his contribution to music and culture. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, cementing his status as one of the most influential artists of his era. His death is a moment to acknowledge that a generational icon, who opened the doors for Jamaican artists, has passed. Jimmy Cliff was part of the first wave of musicians who took reggae from the streets of Kingston to the world, creating the pathway that others, including Bob Marley, later walked through. Rest in Peace Legend. Full concert of the legend below from 2018.

It was May the 16th, 1978, just before 3 days from the release of Dire Straits' epic single 'Sultans of Swing' which is in their self-titled album. The band took the stage live at The Old Grey Whistle Test and performed that legendary, invaluable, and amazing song, Sultans of Swing. This footage is one of the earliest footage of the band and it is beyond perfection since there was no release back in that time from Dire Straits. The band's sound, playing, and whole live performance is just obviously amazing and it also sounds as great as the album version. What an incredible live performance, enjoy. #DireStraits #SultansofSwing

"Runaway" was released in 1961 and became the biggest hit of Del Shannon's career. Written by him and Max Crook, the track has a classic '60s rock and roll sound with an iconic Musitron organ riff (an instrument created by Crook, based on a modified organ). Released as a single, it reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks. Del Shannon's signature falsetto and Musitron's innovative sound helped define early '60s rock. The song is a timeless classic, has been covered by various artists and to this day is considered one of the greatest songs of the pre-Beatles era.
