SOPHIA BROWN HELPS RAISE FUNDS FOR HAITI

Always ready to make a difference in the lives of those in need, reggae singer Sophia Brown on Sunday February 28, represented alongside a host of fellow artistes at the Aid Haiti Telethon put on by telecommunications giant LIME in association with CVM TV and Solid Agency.

Sophia Brown, who in the past has supported a number of other charitable initiatives including the Shaggy Make A Difference Foundation, says the whole experience was a memorable one. “It felt good being at the Telethon playing my part. I accepted roughly $60,000 in pledges while at the Phone Platform and overall it was a heartwarming experience knowing it was for the people of Haiti.” She further relates an experience she had with outspoken hip hop ambassador for Haiti, Wyclef Jean. “It’s funny coz it was only recently I was coming back from Los Angeles when I had a conversation with Wyclef at the LAX Airport and he was expressing the full extent of the devastation to me so it felt good playing my part in assisting those affected,” she explained.

Brown, who has been busy in the studios, is also promoting her latest single “Love Therapy”, which recently premiered on Hitz 92 FM in Jamaica and in the United States on the Atlanta based radio show Island Vibes on WSTU 98.1FM. Lovely Therapy is expected to do well in the international market as the follow up single to Brown’s mega hit “Gimmie That Good Love” which is still sitting high on the E-Strip Reggae Video Charts, having held the number one spot for five consecutive weeks.

crakk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:29:38 +0000

Kingston, Jamaica – Dancehall artiste Spice will be shooting yet another video, this time for her new single Back Broad on the recently released DNA riddim by TJ Records.

The video shoot which was delayed because of Spice’s hectic schedule – supervising her store, Spicey Couture, and travelling overseas for shows – is now back on track and Spice says the wait will be worth it.

“I think fans, especially my confident divas will love the video. The concept for this video is going to be about confident women, and being fashionable. The chorus is about walking the runway, so of course, you know it’s gonna be about fashion, glitz and glamour and the pre-chorus talks about ‘if yuh back broad yuh can bounce any gal’, so it’s a bad girl image mixed with hotness. But overall, it’s gonna be my most fashionable video so far,” she said.

The shoot is scheduled to take place at 4 Latham Avenue, across from Hype TV, tomorrow (Friday, March 12)at 3p.m. “I also want to invite all my fans who want to be apart of the shoot to come out dressed to impress. I always like my fans to feel free to be apart of anything I do, so come out; it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Chino says, “When I heard I couldn’t help but smile. I feel really blessed for people to appreciate my work. I’ve been in the music industry for as long as I can remember; some people may remember me as ‘Cappachino’ an’ dem time deh a lot of people refused to even give a second glance no matter how good a song was. But nothing beats persistence, and I stuck with it. It’s been a long journey, an’ as we say ‘from mawnin wi a hustle an’ put we all in’. It’s not just a song. It’s my life; so I’m really appreciative to the fans, the media, the selectors and everybody both here and overseas for showing love.”

Kirk Franklin to Revolutionize Kingston!

crakk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:14:32 +0000

Kingston, Jamaica — It’s not often that fans get to see their favourite artistes for free, and that’s not taking International acts into account. However, this year’s staging of the Best Dressed Fun In The Son on the grounds of the Jamaica College, Hope Road, has everything any patron could want – all for free.

The event which is in it’s eighth year seeks to celebrate Gospel music and the inspiration it provides, as such, showcasing and spreading the gospel for free, was in order. Next Saturday night’s concert boasts some of the most distinguished local and international Gospel artistes. Namely, this year’s headliner, Kirk Franklin, known for his hits, Stomp, Revolution, Now Behold The Lamb, and more, alongside Papa San, Carlene Davis, Goddy Goddy, DJ Nicholas, Sister Scully, Sons Of The Prophet, J. Lee and others.

According to Christopher Levy, CEO and President of the Jamaica Broilers, “It is about changing lives, transformation, and the winning of lives for Jesus Christ. I believe this year will be different from every other year of Best Dressed Chicken Fun in the Son.”

Fun In The Son is exactly as its name suggests: having fun and celebrating life and love. But, what to do with the kids prior to the concert? Fret not. Families can rest assured that there will be a plethora of fun-filled activities for the kids, ranging from bounce-a-bouts, craft, art and food, which will all be found in what has been dubbed “The Kids Village” and opens at 10 a.m. The rides, food and other activities for the kids will be the only things which attract a small fee at the event.

Cherine Anderson rocks Madison Square Garden

crakk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:07:26 +0000

After an exciting weekend where Cherine Anderson rocked back-to-back, sold-out nights at the famed Madison Square Garden, her signature voice chanting ‘Come Down, Selector’ was heard in a surprising place – blasting from an intro on CNN’s morning show.

As the hit song Say Hey (I Love You) rang out to start the day for countless viewers, it capped off an amazing weekend for Cherine in the Big Apple!

There are very few things that could stop the determined dancehall-soulstress from giving a memorable and energetic performance.

Braving freezing temperatures and a snowstorm that dumped over 20 inches of snow in New York’s Central Park, Cherine came out blazing, bringing Jamaican sunshine and her dancehall-soul energy to two sold-out performances at the famed Madison Square Garden.

On the first night, she took the stage like a storm and really got the crowd up and moving. Dressed in a classic custom-made blazer of royal blue with neon orange accents, she represented more than just Jamaica, she also represented New York by wearing the team colours of the New York Knicks.

Backstage she was again rewarded with positive feedback for her performance, including a compliment of “great performance” from Warner Music Group’s vice-chairman, Lyor Cohen. On the second night, Anderson delighted the audience as she rushed onto the stage excitedly and started the show asking, “New York, yuh ready? Cause dis is a Dancehall-Soul ting”! Her entrance ignited many to stand up for what was an impressive one-hour-set filled with dancehall-soul-rebel-rocking goodness. The back-to-back Madison Square Garden performances were a first for both Cherine Anderson and Michael Franti & Spearhead.
