Mavado creates magic with Jadakiss 2013
Mavado has teamed with American rapper Jadakiss on the reggae/Rhythm and
Blues song Just Like Magic, produced by Jamaica-born, New York-based
Musical Masquerade.
"The collaboration came about from an idea to blend unmistakable voices
from reggae and hip hop and put them together on a reggae track. From
there we reached out to the respective camps," said Musical Masquerade.
Just like Magic is the second release from the producer's forthcoming
compilation album, Elements of Reggae. Its first single, No Other Like
You, by Rayvon featuring Red Fox has done well on regional reggae charts
in the United States.
Just like Magic has already been serviced to radio stations. A music video is also on the cards.
Nyla flies solo
Former Brick and Lace singer Nyla recently released the song, Stand Up, on LargeUp.com.
It is her first release for Konfrontation Muzik, the new record label owned by singer Ky-mani Marley.
Produced by Miami's CMC Productions, the track is a mixture of reggae,
R&B and pop which is the direction of her upcoming EP.
"I'm drawing elements from different arenas of music but it's always
going to be reggae influenced, because that's my base," Nyla said.
"Whatever energy I bring, I'm always Jamaican."
Brick and Lace (which included her sister Nyanda) were signed to
neo-soul singer Akon's Kon Live label. They had well-received songs in
Love Is Wicked -- the title of their 2007 debut album -- and Never
Never.
