As sure as the sun may shine it’s Monday time again, and whether you’re doing it properly in Grenada for Spice Mas or simply holding a lunch break, we got you as always at #MixtapeMondays. Catch a vibe below.
LL Cool Blaze, Dancehall to the Future: The big man from Miami LL Cool Blaze has a latest and greatest in the mixtape department, an excursion called Dancehall to the Future. Mixing in a handful of his custom edits with a spicy peppering of current bashment, afrobeats, remixes, and the electronic-tinged flavor he’s appropriately dubbed Caribbean Dance Music, this should get your waist wining up at the office in no time. Stream below, download here.
DJ Fearless Kevon, Jab Training Grenada Soca Mix: This past week we’ve been covering some serious jab jab business around here leading up to Spice Mas – get familiar right here – but right now it’s all about the music. Spice Mas is the last island carnival of the season, and Grenada’s own DJ Fearless Kevon covers all the bases of Grenada Soca so you can transport yourself to one of the wildest fetes of the year simply by pressing play. Stream below, download here.
Travis World, Paradiso Mixtape: Checking in with the young don Travis World repping T&T full time – you may have heard the name from some big road mixes this past year with Machel Montano – but this one is a straight party mix fusing one hour of all the latest dancehall, soca, hip hop and r&b all in one place. Should also note all clean versions just in case you’re busting on the bluetooth at work. Stream and download below.
