Cocoa Tea Sings For Buju
January 30, 2010
Cocoa Tea’s wicked re-lick of the Heptones’ 1976 classic, Country Boy, dedicated to Buju Banton, whose cocaine trial begins in Florida at the beginning of March. According to the Jamaica Gleaner, Buju’s lawyers are set to use entrapment as their defence, claiming that a “paid government informant” persistently pestered Buju to buy cocaine after befriending him on a flight from Madrid to Miami in July 2009. Can that really help his case?
Produced by Roaring Lion.
Busy Signal Inna Gary Mix Up
January 25, 2010
Vybz Kartel may have been 2009’s deejay of the year, but Busy Signal wasn’t far off, and judging by some of his recent tunes (You Never Knew and his three versions over Shane Brown’s re-lick of the Boops riddim), 2010 could be a Busy year. Right now though, he finds himself in a bizarre mix up. Read more

Pat Metheny vs Kenny G
January 2, 2010
Kenny G gets a critical beatdown from Pat Metheny in this interview on jazzoasis.com. Yeah, Kenny deserves it, but he does have one massive soul weekender tune – 1982’s Hi How Ya Doin (Youtube link here) – whereas Pat doesn’t. On the same site, Wynton Marsalis gets dissed pretty bad by Keith Jarrett (here). Who ever said there was love between jazzers?
