Aidonia responds to my Kartel interview

First things first, if you haven't read the two previous parts of the Kartel interview (one of the only interviews he has ever done outside of Jamaican press), check http://www.mtv.co.uk/music/urban/249750-vybz-kartel-the-interview-part-1. He talks success of Clarks, Major Lazer 'Pon Di Floor' collaboration, getting his work ethic from his father and writing for Bounty Killer.

Part few (2) is about reinvention, I asked if he borrowed Mavado's style, about making x-rated songs when he has to make clean ones, he gives an exclusive about both his new album and the plans he has to work with Mavado http://www.mtv.co.uk/music/urban/250984-vybz-kartel-the-interview-part-2

On Thursday I made this post about a podcast by HypeLife.tv comical take on the interview. Now this

Anyone that has followed my blog or knows me personally will know I say Aidonia is one of the baddest deejay's in Jamaica. To quote this post "What I will say is Aidonia is currently top 3 dancehall artists right now. Let's see how long it takes these punk DJs over here in the UK to realise." That's last year.

So onto this Aidonia beef with Vybz Kartel

If you don't know either artist, Kartel is like the Jay-Z of dancehall (but with more credibility on the streets and amongst girls) with Aidonia the street artist the thugs like. Does a few songs for girls here and there but he is a quintessential rudeboy deejay. Many people believe he is the only one that could really take on Kartel lyrically, he has thrown numerous songs at Kartel, so I asked Kartel's opinion on the tunes. Kartel said what he said. If you haven't heard my Kartel interview. He addresses Aidonia in the first bit



Now Aidonia has responded.



What have I done? Asked what we all wondered.

The "Addi ah mi daddy" line is from this gun finger specialist tune. If gun finger doesn't rise on "Me nah fi wear black fi bad mi inna all white", you have no soul. "Black fi bad" is a jab at the Alliance, Bounty Killer is always in all black, so was Mavado back then, Busy Signal etc.



This is a diss to Kartel from late last year



This is also a Kartel diss from December 2010

"We smoke the most and sing 'bout hot grabba
Long time in a the ghetto step inna mi bank robber"

Hot grabba line refers to this song by Kartel. Bank Robber are a style of Clarks, obviously in reference to Clarks.



"Genius ah di boss,
No bwoy can't violate rounda Stephen place"

Is basically what this whole situation starts from.

Remember (back in '09) the first Stephen 'Di Genius' McGregor riddim without Vybz Kartel? Aidonia first stated "Tell dem me bad anywhere but uptown ah my own"



Then Kartel took a jab at Aidonia "Addi (abbreviation of Adidjah which is Kartel's forename) ah (is) the real lord evil" @ 1:58 on this '09 diss track aimed at Mavado and Stephen McGregor



I all forgot about this tune Aidonia did for Kartel. 2nd verse is incredible.

"No bwoy cant see 'Donia and box (punch) him
Can't get kick up like Ninja Man pon Sting
Buss it inna ya head you fold up like napkin
The pu**y there no badder than me, not him
Me can defend anything weh (that) I talk in a song
No need friend fi (to) make shot claart in a man...
Stephen give me way make me war him nuh man
One shot inna him face so it nah go be long"



And don't try none of that encouraging or condoning gun crime. They're war bars. That's how people clash. Get over yourself. When a country wars with another country is the same thing but this is on wax. So long as no one gets hurt, there isn't any harm in competing.

As I've said before don't shoot the messenger. I just asked what we all wondered. Lads, don't let this turn into anything stupid. I beg you. Thanks

p.s. This would have been my ring entrance music if I was a boxer

Marvin Sparks x Raekwon interview

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

White band win Reggae Grammy x Koffee x Skillibeng

So a white American reggae band called Soja won the Best Reggae album award at the Grammy's? And you care because? You feel Jamaicans are losing reggae because the Grammy's (a white institution) gave their white American man award to a white American reggae band? You blame the Jamaican government for not showing enough love and support to the music because this is the result? But you don't realise you are giving the Grammy's that much power and don't see where the problem lies? Well let me tell you; the problem is within you. I understand the outrage. Jamaicans built the music and are rarely compensated for all the hard graft. There have been countless examples of the music being used by someone else, often to better results because we live in an ignorant and racist Western world. Historically, white reggae artists like The Police or UB40 are able to achieve better results in the white man's world than reggae artists that are far superior to them. Bruno Mars , J

Bounty Killer vs Vybz Kartel - Father vs. Son

Unlike Ele vs Flippa this war actually has substance. If you don't know here's a brief: After being written a few songs by said artist, Bounty Killer (Killa) introduces and mentors (sons) Vybz Kartel Kartel appeared & performed at Beenie Man (Killer's arch-enemy since 190-long) wedding Kartel declares emancipation from Bounty Killer-led Alliance camp stressing the need to grow his own wings to fly Killer calls Kartel ungrateful Mavado and Kartel war begins, Killer makes a whole heap of subliminal songs directed at Kartel... Kartel has made a few songs directly dissin Killer, but Killer never really outright replied causing many and even Kartel ( Click for Vybz Kartel dissin Alliance "Suck pu**y Killer can't diss me" ) to suspect the once fearless Killer was running scared of the 'War Angel' aka Gaza yout' Vybz Kartel. Killer finally plucked up the courage to send shots at Kartel But most notably with Chatta Box Vybz Kartel allegedly missed a b
