Live review: It Was Written featuring Terry Lynn & Johna Hugo at Q4 Studios |
|
Dancehall was obviously conceived in a steamier climate than that of the plains states—its throbbing rhythms are as conducive to bobbing lethargically in the setting sun as they are bouncing spasmodically in the dark. Last week, on Thursday night, the all-star digital dancehall duo of Lynn and Hugo teamed up for a brand-reinforcement party that exceeded all expectations. read more... |

Sean Kingston Grows Up In New 'Fire Burning' Video |
|
Earlier this year, Kingston leaked "I'm at War," an overwrought, Auto-Tuned track that featured a cameo by none other than Lil Wayne. Somewhat surprisingly, the song failed to gain any real traction, which sent everyone scurrying back to their respective laboratories and boardrooms, and eventually led to "Fire Burning," which has officially been dubbed the official first single from Tomorrow. (Officially.) read more... |

Gray-Suited D.J.s Mix It Up With Dancehall and Multimedia |
|
For an hour after Major Lazer was scheduled to begin its set at S.O.B.’s in the small hours of Sunday morning, the screen at the back of the stage was displaying footage from what appeared to be Carnival in Brazil while a D.J., hidden out of sight, played soca, dancehall reggae and R&B. By about the halfway mark this began to feel like a brilliant conceptual stunt. read more... |

Callaloo, a wonderful vegetable to grow during the hot Florida summer |
|
Callaloo is grown extensively by people living in the Caribbean islands and has its origins with African slaves. It is very popular in Trinidad-Tobago, Jamaica, Guyana, Asia, Dominican Republic, Haiti, West Indies, Barbados and Bahamas. It is believed that the African slaves brought it with them when they were relocated to lands far away from their birthplace. They were very wise in doing so as it grows prolifically in poor soils. read more... |

What's Next for Caribbean Offshore Centers? |
|
A year ago, the real estate boom was in full swing. About 17,500 units—mostly high-rise condos—were ready to come on the market. In some cases, a condo would double in value during the time it was being built. Some developers even sold the same unit twice. For instance, a developer would sell a unit for US$500,000, and then sell it a second time for US$1 million. If the first buyer complained, the developer would refund his or her deposit. read more... |
