EDLEY SHINE DELIVERS “BROKEN DOLLY,” THE FIRST EXPLOSIVE CHAPTER OF DJ JAHMAR’S “BOOK OF MICAH RIDDIM”


New York, New York — August, 2026 -- Dancehall trailblazer Edley Shine, formerly of the groundbreaking duo Born Jamericans, joins forces with producer DJ Jahmar for “Broken Dolly,” the first explosive single from the highly anticipated “Book of Micah Riddim” project. Packed with attitude, storytelling and an unmistakably authentic Jamaican Dancehall pulse, the new "Broken Dolly" single and vibrant official music video are bound to leave a lasting impression on audiences.


“Broken Dolly” unfolds like a sonic soap opera, with Edley Shine bringing his signature wit and commanding delivery to the exploits of a modern-day “Dolly”—Caribbean slang commonly associated with glamorous women known for their enhanced looks, eye-catching attributes and confident, money-motivated, go-getter attitude. Over DJ Jahmar’s infectious production, Shine turns the colorful character into a larger-than-life story made for Dancehall audiences, DJs and selectors.

The song’s energy is amplified by its official video, shot on location in historic Port Royal, Jamaica. Pairing the island backdrop with colorful characters and narrative-driven visuals, DJ Jahmar and Edley Shine bring the world of “Broken Dolly” to life while keeping the imagery firmly connected to the culture that inspired the record. The video premiered alongside the single on August 14, giving audiences a full introduction to the sound and vision behind the “Book of Micah Riddim.”


“Broken Dolly” serves as the opening chapter of what DJ Jahmar is positioning as a full-scale Dancehall rollout. With the “Book of Micah Riddim,” the Arizona-based DJ and producer taps into the raw energy, infectious rhythms and grassroots character of Jamaican Dancehall while presenting a collection built to resonate with DJs, tastemakers, influencers and Dancehall fans across international markets.


The project also makes a statement about Dancehall’s enduring global influence. At a time when elements of Jamaican music continue to be borrowed, reinterpreted and incorporated into popular sounds around the world, DJ Jahmar is taking the riddim back to its foundation—delivering music rooted unapologetically in the authentic Jamaican Dancehall experience.


And “Broken Dolly” is only the beginning.

DJ Jahmar plans to steadily unveil additional singles and visuals from the “Book of Micah Riddim.” A video for Wasp’s “Remember” has already been completed, while reels and visuals are planned around several other standout selections, including Guiney Peppers’ “Never Stop,” Mega Banton’s “No Chill,” Bramma’s “Something About You,” Singer J’s “Wine For Me,” and Hollywood MK’s “Toxic.”


Each artist brings a distinct personality and flavor to DJ Jahmar’s production, creating a diverse collection without sacrificing the riddim’s grassroots Dancehall identity. From established voices to emerging talent, the “Book of Micah Riddim” is designed as both a celebration of the culture and a reminder of the power of the classic riddim format—one infectious instrumental, multiple artists and a range of stories built to move the dance.


For DJ Jahmar, whose career has been driven by a commitment to championing authentic Reggae and Dancehall, the project represents another step in his evolution from DJ and radio personality to producer. His ear for Jamaican music and ability to connect its traditional foundation with contemporary audiences have become central to his growing production catalog.


Edley Shine brings another layer of Dancehall history to the collaboration. Best known as one-half of Born Jamericans, the influential Jamaican-American duo that helped bring Reggae and Dancehall deeper into the U.S. mainstream, Shine has maintained his distinctive voice and lyrical personality throughout his solo career. On “Broken Dolly,” that seasoned delivery meets DJ Jahmar’s production for a record that feels rooted in Dancehall tradition while built for today’s audience.


With “Broken Dolly” officially opening the book, DJ Jahmar is setting the stage for a succession of releases aimed squarely at selectors, DJs, Dancehall lovers and global audiences hungry for the real thing.


“Broken Dolly” by Edley Shine, produced by DJ Jahmar, is out now alongside the official music video. The project hails from Shinealous Records and Twelve Tribes Entertainment with distribution from Symphonic.

MR EASY AND FUTURE FAMBO SERVE UP CLASSIC DANCEHALL FLAVOR ON “CYAAN GO ROUND YUH”

 

NEW YORK — Dancehall mainstays Mr Easy and Future Fambo have joined forces with Deejay Yellow for “Cyaan Go Round Yuh,” an explosive new collaboration fueled by infectious rhythms, playful lyrics and the unmistakable chemistry of distinctive Dancehall voices.


Produced by Yellow House Promotions, “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” is the first single from Yellow House Records’ inaugural Dancehall riddim, “Aktive.” Written by Mr Easy and Troy Auxilly Wilson, the energetic, female-focused track taps into the feel-good, collaborative spirit of ’90s Dancehall while delivering a fresh sound for today. Driven by the pulsating “Aktive” riddim, the artists trade vocals and personalities over a track built for parties, selectors and the dance floor.

For Mr Easy, inspiration struck almost immediately after hearing the riddim while driving through New York. Although he initially hesitated to listen after receiving a steady stream of riddims from producers, the “Aktive” riddim changed his mind within moments.


“The minute I put the riddim on in the car, the whole vibe just hit me,” says Mr Easy. “I started vibing, and the song just came.”


The experience also reinforced something the artist has learned over his decades in music: never underestimate where the next great record might come from.


“One thing I’ve learned is you can’t underrate or underestimate any producer,” he says.


Mr Easy quickly reached out to musician and collaborator Clarity, also known as Drumrat, and the two began developing the record. Within approximately an hour, the foundation of “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” was complete.

“When something moves with that type of energy, you know it’s on the right track,” Mr Easy says.


The timing couldn't be better, as the song arrives during a sizzling summer for Mr Easy and Future Fambo, with both artists generating fresh attention and momentum.


Mr Easy continues to command attention across generations with a catalog that includes loads of Dancehall favorites with the timeless “Drive Me Crazy” leading the pack. On the same day “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” dropped, the hitmaker appeared on the popular On The Radar Radio, delivering an energetic performance of the classic “Drive Me Crazy” alongside his newer track “Gal It’s Ya Birthday.” The appearance sparked a flurry of social media activity and renewed attention around the artist and his music.


Future Fambo is enjoying a resurgence of his own, powered by the viral success of “Red Light Pepper Light.” The track has generated significant attention across TikTok and other social media platforms, while the celebrated deejay has also seen increased momentum on the live performance circuit and several music releases.


Now, “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” brings that momentum together, pairing two familiar Dancehall personalities with Deejay Yellow on a record that bridges the genre’s classic collaborative energy with its current sound.


The strong response to the song echoes the excitement Mr Easy felt the moment the riddim first caught his ear.


“People want to hear this type of vibe again,” he says. “It’s positive energy, and the song came out amazing.”


With Mr Easy, Future Fambo and Deejay Yellow combining forces, “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” launches the “Aktive” riddim with established star power, authentic Dancehall chemistry and a fresh jolt of energy for the summer. “Cyaan Go Round Yuh” is out now on all digital platforms.

KRANIUM EARNS SECOND RIAA GOLD CERTIFICATION AS A LEAD ARTIST WITH “WE CAN” FEAT. TORY LANEZ

NEW YORK, N.Y. 2026. — With more than a billion global streams across his catalog and a decade of consistently bridging dancehall, reggae and R&B for international audiences, Kranium has reached another career-defining milestone.

The Jamaican hitmaker has earned his second RIAA Gold certification as a lead artist, as his global single “We Can” featuring Tory Lanez has been certified Gold in the United States.


The achievement makes Kranium one of the few contemporary dancehall artists to secure multiple RIAA Gold certifications as the lead artist on his own records. It also underscores his continued commercial impact in the U.S. market, where Caribbean music has long influenced mainstream culture but where lead dancehall records rarely achieve Gold certification.


Unlike certifications earned through guest appearances or supporting collaborations, both of Kranium’s U.S. Gold plaques recognize songs he led as the primary artist: “Nobody Has To Know” and “We Can.” The distinction highlights his ability to build an international audience around his own catalog while helping expand dancehall’s global commercial footprint.


“Coming from Jamaica, you dream about taking our music to every corner of the world, but you also carry the responsibility of representing the culture the right way,” Kranium said. “To receive a second RIAA Gold plaque as the lead artist means everything because these are records that started with my vision and my story. It’s a blessing to know that music from Jamaica can continue connecting with people everywhere.”


The new certification follows the success of “Nobody Has To Know,” the breakout single that introduced Kranium’s signature melodic blend of dancehall, reggae and R&B to audiences worldwide. The record previously earned RIAA Gold status in the United States and has continued to drive Kranium’s international momentum.


“This isn’t just my win. It’s a win for dancehall, for Jamaica and for every young artist who believes our music deserves to stand alongside any genre in the world,” Kranium said. “I’m grateful to the fans who have been rocking with me since day one because none of this happens without them.”


The latest milestone adds to one of the strongest international certifications resumes among contemporary dancehall artists, reflecting Kranium’s sustained commercial success across North America and the United Kingdom.


His certifications include:

·      “Nobody Has To Know” — Gold, United States

·      “Nobody Has To Know” — Platinum and Gold, Canada

·      “We Can” — Gold, United States

·      “We Can” — Platinum and Gold, Canada

·      “Can’t Believe” — Gold, Canada

·      “Nobody Has To Know” — Gold and Silver, United Kingdom

·      “We Can” — Silver, United Kingdom

·      “Gal Policy” — Silver, United Kingdom


The certification arrives during another exciting chapter in Kranium’s career as he continues releasing new music, expanding his international reach and further defining the modern sound of dancehall. With two RIAA Gold-certified lead singles, multiple Platinum, Gold and Silver certifications across three major music markets, and a catalog that continues to resonate globally, Kranium has firmly established himself as one of the most commercially successful Jamaican artists of his generation.


More than a decade after introducing the world to his distinctive melodic style, Kranium continues proving that consistency, authenticity and innovation can transcend borders. As Caribbean music enjoys unprecedented global recognition, his latest Gold certification serves as another reminder that Jamaican artists are not only shaping popular music, they are building lasting international legacies.

Rooted firmly in Jamaica's rich sound system tradition, the single serves as both a tribute and a reminder of the culture's enduring influence. From Kingston Street corners to international stages, sound systems have played a critical role in spreading reggae music worldwide, creating spaces where music, community, and creativity intersect.


With Damian Marley's contemporary production approach layered over a classic reggae foundation, "My Sound" balances nostalgia with modern energy. The result is a record that speaks directly to reggae lovers, sound system enthusiasts, selectors, and dancehall audiences across the globe.

Introducing: Bahamian Reggae Artist Righteous Teacher

Righteous Teacher, born Demarco Grant on September 19, 1975 in New Providence, Bahamas, is a reggae recording artist whose music is rooted in faith, inspiration and positive social messages. Raised in the heart of Nassau near East Street and Deveaux Street, Grant attended C.W. Sawyer Primary School and later A.F. Adderley Senior High School, where his passion for music first emerged. 

As a student, Grant became known for beating rhythms on classroom desks and freestyling with friends, often drawing large crowds in school hallways. Inspired by legendary Jamaican dancehall icons such as Buju Banton, Papa San and Shabba Ranks, he developed a love for music at an early age. However, during that period, pursuing music professionally in The Bahamas seemed uncertain, leading him down a different path.


Growing up amidst hardship and adversity, Grant became involved in gang activity while attempting to establish his identity and reputation on the streets. Despite these challenges, his grandmother, Ruby Lightfoot, remained a guiding influence, instilling in him the values of hard work, perseverance and determination. Her teachings, coupled with divine purpose, eventually helped redirect his life toward a more positive future.


Grant later became a Bahamian Immigration Officer, building a respectable career in public service. In 2009, he relocated to Florida, where he lived for more than a decade. While residing in the United States, he was heavily exposed to the American hip-hop and rap culture, creating opportunities to connect with producers and artists throughout the industry.


In March 2020, inspired to revisit his lifelong passion, Grant began recording music professionally. His debut single ‘Favor Bounce’ was released on July 5, 2020, followed by ‘Favor Bounce Da Revolution’ on November 13, 2020. The record achieved notable success, reaching number 35 on the Billboard Top 40 Mainstream Indicator Chart, number 37 on the Mainstream Indicator Media Base Chart and number 34 on the U.S. Retail Radio Chart, which tracks music played in major retail chains including Walmart, Target and Best Buy. These accomplishments affirmed his belief that mainstream success was possible and marked a turning point in his musical journey. The momentum led to a partnership with his first manager, "Charvae Di Don" of Concore Entertainment, who played an instrumental role in helping elevate his career and expand his industry reach.


Throughout his career, Grant has collaborated with several notable artists and producers. He has worked with Atlanta-based producer Mike Fidelis, known for producing records for artists such as DaBaby and Lil Boosie. In April 2024, he released ‘Thank God For My Haters’ featuring renowned rapper Benzino. Other collaborations include ‘Trapped In The Mind’ featuring Miami rapper Mike Smiff of Slip-N-Slide Records, ‘Power Moves’ with independent Miami rapper Stitches, and projects involving PBE Pluto. These collaborations provided opportunities to perform at numerous events across Florida and Georgia, helping him build a growing audience throughout the United States.


Although he found success in hip-hop, Grant realized his true passion remained with reggae music. Upon returning to The Bahamas, he shifted his focus toward creating reggae, dancehall and afrobeat records that align more closely with his identity and artistic vision.


Recording primarily through Rock Sound Records based in The Bahamas, Grant released ‘Bust A Praise’ under his own imprint, DKG Music Group, on March 13, 2026. He has also developed a strong working relationship with Jamaican producer Crawba Genius, who produced his hit single ‘Give Thanks’ featuring internationally acclaimed dancehall artist Busy Signal. The song achieved significant success, peaking at number 3 on the U.S. iTunes Reggae Chart, further establishing Grant as an emerging force within Caribbean music.


Looking ahead, Grant aspires to collaborate with world-renowned Jamaican producers such as Rvssian, Di Genius and Notnice. While remaining proudly independent, he remains open to partnering with a major record label if the opportunity proves mutually beneficial.


Performing under the name "Righteous Teacher", Grant intentionally adopted the moniker to reflect his mission of addressing the struggles, challenges and realities of life through a positive and God-centered perspective. His music seeks to uplift, motivate, inspire and educate listeners while encouraging personal growth, faith and resilience.


Today, Righteous Teacher continues building his fan base both locally and internationally, striving for global success while remaining committed to creating timeless music that impacts lives for generations. Through every song, he aims to spread positive energy, inspire change and remind people that no matter their circumstances, faith and purpose can transform any journey into one of redemption and hope.

Introducing: Lookalike - newest dancing sensation

Fast-rising Jamaican dancer Lookalike was born Dexroy Sheldon Myrie on the 3rd of July 1990 at the Victoria Jubilee Hospital in Kingston. He grew up in the innercity community of Waterhouse but attended schools in neighboring communities: the Gospel Light Early Childhood Institution (basic school) and George Headley Primary School in Duhaney Park and Pembroke Hall High School in Pembroke Hall. 

Lookalike played football at first, going by the moniker “Skillachi” during those formative years. Then, he discovered dancing and fell in love with it. Lookalike entered several competitions, in which he won most of them, and enjoyed those moments so much so that he chose dancing as a career. He performed at various school fetes and parties where he entertained his peers with his slick moves. 


As with most dancers in Jamaica, Lookalike was influenced by the late great dancer Bogle, also known as Mr Wacky, due to his unique and innovative styles. Lookalike was discovered by popular dancer Colo Colo and would hang out with him at the Half-Way-Tree Skateland before attending weekly events to dance for patrons, dancing for more than ten years now. 


Lookalike is a part of the popular dance crew the GetThereSquad, and has worked with a few big names in dancehall, such as Beenie Man, Skeng, Popcaan, Elephant Man, Munga Honourable, Teejay, Harry Toddler and fellow dancer turned artist Chi Ching Ching. He liked working with Elephant Man the most because he sings the best dancing songs, in his opinion. Lookalike would love to work with Sean Paul in the future. 


Lookalike has also created his own dance move called “Look Out”. Dancing has taken him all over the island, performing on some of the biggest stages in Jamaica such as Reggae Sumfest in Montego Bay and Dream Weekend in Negril. He’s now set his sights on touring overseas, with his first show to happen in Canada at the Starlife Evening Brunch on July 5, 2026.


It is his hope to accomplish more by traveling the world, teaching Jamaica’s dancehall culture and signature dance moves to other nations. Lookalike wants to spread positive vibes through dancing. He encourages the younger generation to put their all in whatever they love doing, to believe in God and themselves, and not to let anything or anyone stop them from pursuing their dreams.
