Words by Jesse Serwer—
Our friend Russian just sent us over his new Dynamite riddim featuring a brand-new single (also called “Dynamite”) from Vybz Kartel. Russian made his breakthrough with his production on “Straight Jeans and Fitted” for Kartel, and they’ve worked quite a bit together since then, so it’s no surprise that Russian would have some stored-up Kartel in the vaults. Other artists on Dynamite, a dancehall nod to Blackstreet’s “No Diggity,” are Aidonia, Elephant Man, Chan Dizzy, Charly Blacks and newcomers Eleigh, Fyah Bass and Jamiel.
