You Rate It: Bounty Killer x I-Octane, “Double Trouble”

Words by Jesse Serwer—

bounty-killer-i-octane-double-trouble

Hello yello!!! Today is the 41st birthday of one Rodney Price—Bounty Killer. But the Warlord/5-Star General isn’t sailing off into middle age quietly. His latest movement sees him team once again with dancehall dude-of-the-moment (and this year’s Reggae Sumfest Dancehall Night headliner) I-Octane on a new riddim from Markus Records.

Mixtape Mondays: DJ Arems x Popcaan, DJ Kiki, Safari Sound

Words by Deejay Theory –

Popcaan LUYowww! Welcome back to another unruly edition of Mixtape Mondays. Crazy new thing this week from one of our top-rated deejays and artists, along with some essential rewinds and certified customs moving from Vancouver to Jamaica, and the Netherlands to Sweden. Press play quick quick quick quick quick.

DJ Arems, Best of Popcaan: Trailer load a badness right here from the big homie and my fellow Faction Sound Crew member DJ Arems. Repping Vancouver to the fullest, Arems comes correct and then some with every mixtape, proving Vancity is firmly on the map in the dancehall department. On that very note, the unruly boss Popcaan touched the stage in Vancouver last night, which considering he doesn’t hold a US visa at the moment was somewhat of a big deal. In honor of the occasion Arems built this wicked ‘best of’ mixed CD with a slew of favorite picks from the artiste of course, with some exclusive Faction dubplates, accompanied by sick throwback cover art from the one Rhek. You already know Poppy’s rocking that LargeUp x Rockers NYC tee as well to keep it official. Run this and start an immediate rave in your office, kitchen, backyard, car, etc. Stream below, tracklist and download here:
