Whenever we hear that Dre Skull is releasing a dancehall riddim we know we are in for a treat, Smoke Machine, Kling Klang, Loudspeaker are all staples in our sets and Blacklight Riddim was another favourite from the minute we heard it. Dre Skull also has a skill of picking the perfect artists for his riddims, with four cuts from Konshens, QQ, Spice and Tifa all giving it their best, there’s no need for any more.
Check out Dre Skull chatting to the Fader about the riddim here and go buy it here.
Rvssian continues his assault on the charts with this new island pop cut with QQ. The video is pretty NSFW and once again unnecessarily so. Then again the first comment is “not enough Colombian Chicks” so what do i know.
QQ is back with more dance laden madness this time with Mosquito Net. This time its an odd crouch and throwing your hands in the air type move. Luckily the song is a lot better than the dance. Feels odd to say this but QQ has a big chance of becoming the biggest star in dancehall this year.
In the next couple of weeks we will be all posting the video of Vicious’ jam Freaks as French Montana (Africa’s number one rapper) and America’s sweetheart Nicki Minaj have teamed for a new song with Freaks as the sample. I thought it would be a good time to check up on another child dancehall star, this time QQ of the infamous Stukie (not this Stooki). He has a new track dedicated to the Ghetto Gyals and it’s pretty good.
