MR. VEGAS MASHES UP DJ PROSTYLES' PARTY AT UCF

Performing after Autotune sensation Ron Browz, Mr. vegas was in sparkling form at the DJ Prostyles' birthday concert Monday night at the University of Central Florida UCF Arena in Orlando. The large crowd almost lost its collective mind when he delivered Hot Wuk, ably assisted by dancer Mystic whose frenetically sexy moves energised and captivated the large audience
The crowd cheered again as Mr. Vegas performed Tek Weh Yuself, showing off the popular Jamaican dance move. Vegas, who is truly a talented live performer, showed his uncanny ability to connect with audiences regardless of their cultural backgrounds. He performed for 25 minutes and closed his set with a well-received I Am Blessed, a song that has been added to the playlist of several urban radio stations.
Red Rat hit the stage after Vegas and also represented for dancehall. Serani had the girls rocking to No Games, but curiously, Mavado appeared to be a no-show because when one876 left the venue just after Souljah Boy hit the stage, the artiste had
not yet arrived. The show also featured several heavy hitters in the rap business including Jadakiss, Mims, the aforementioned Ron Browz, Young L.A. and Reggaeton star De La Ghetto.

DJ PROSTYLE FROM POWER 93.5FM IN ORLANDO

Denroy Morgan gets spiritual with Theocracy Reigns

Reggae veteran Denroy Morgan on Tuesday released his latest album entitled Theocracy Reigns.
Recorded on Asaph Records label and distributed through VP Records the 14-track album feature Morgan Heritage, LMS
Glenda Phillips-Lee (Ethiopian Orthodox Coptic Church) and Clifford Branch on piano.
The album, which was three years in the making is more than worth the wait as it packs powerful, uplifting messages where Denroy tells the story, but through it all he gives Jah the praise and glory.
Theocracy Reigns is a musical documentation of the ceremony and launching of the ministry that took place on July 23, 2005 at the Ethiopian Orthodox Church of North and South America (Harlem).
In speaking about the experience Denroy shared, “The church has now welcomed the Sabbatical worship in oneness with their Sunday worship. When I come representing Asaph Music and told Abuana that I was ready to launch the musical ministry, he made it possible and gave us a charter to administrate it in the church.”
The CD is aptly titled as each song resonates of heavenly R&B and traditional gospel influenced vocals, soulful piano and guitar leads, international keyboards and the groundation of the Nyobingi drum. As the rhythmic pattern of the Nyobingi drum is blended with Reggae, R&B and gospel - a powerful spiritual revival takes place.
On the album Shy poo (Nashayah Morgan) mixes the R&B emotion on Little Children, while Peter Morgan moves to the choir on Jesus is Still Alive - Kirk Franklin style and on Holy Sabbath he revives the spirit. God Meant For My Good accompanied by Clifford Branch on piano is sentimentally sung by Glenda Phillips.
Among the other tracks on the album are Go Before Us Jah, The Lion of Judah, Theocracy Reigns, Rock My Soul and I’m Still Holding On.
Denroy Morgan is known for his chartbusting single I’ll Do Anything For You and later other hits such as Sweet Tender Love, Happy Feelings and Africa Is Calling.

ETANA MOVES FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH

Following on a highly successful 2008 season in which she captivated many hearts and collected quite a few awards, highly-acclaimed singer/song-writer Etana, is still making her incredible journey.
Hailed as the Strong One, Etana is imbued with that quiet passion that ignites whenever she’s in her element — and that means on stage performing for her adoring fans. Recently returned from Barbados, where her performance surely gained her a whole new set of fans in that reggae-loving Caribbean island, Etana is scheduled to give a not-to-be-missed local performance come Saturday night. She will be the special guest at ‘Jordu Live’ a fairly new series which allows patrons and artistes to commune in an intimate setting.
This event will be held at the Jordu fashion boutique located in 7th Avenue Plaza and the show promoters are excitedly anticipating the arrival of Etana to give even greater credence to the already successful showcase.
“Etana is such a warm person, both on and off stage and it’s as if the intimacy and the ambience were created especially for her,” the promoter declared.
Quite occupied with rehearsals for this show, in addition to other upcoming overseas engagements, Etana is also on a promotional blitz for her latest singles, Free, Caltariba System and Blessings, the sensuous collab with Italian reggae artiste Alborosie which is exploding on the airwaves. The song climbed to the coveted number one slot on overseas charts a few months ago and it’s popularity has not waned, in fact, it seems to have increased.
With the video now out and in rotation, it will be interesting to see the blessings that will undoubtedly follow Blessings.

LUST, STEVIE FACE TO THRILL FANS AT TAKE ME AWAY, SUNDAY

Among the stellar line-up of performers scheduled for Take Me Away on Sunday at the Cable And Wireless Golf Academy in New Kingston will be the sensational Stevie Face and super talented, all-male group, LUST.
It comes as no surprise that these artistes have been requested to perform on this highly-anticipated showcase, which also includes acclaimed international acts such as Jeffrey Osbourne, Riche Stephens - also the promoter - Ken Boothe, Leroy Sibbles, Gregory Isaacs and Gem Myers.
They will no doubt add their voices in a memorable way to this event that holds pride of place on the annual entertainment calendar.
“We know that LUST just can’t help but be impressive. To see them on stage performing together is a totally new experience … different from listening to them on radio. LUST is a group that is just so dedicated to doing what they do best — thrilling fans — and patrons can be assured that they will be nothing short of memorable,” a spokesperson for LUST said.
The owners of the coveted EME Song of the Year Award for 2008, LUST serenaded fans with the Air Supply hit Just As I Am and showed exactly how to do a cover and make it credible. But that is just one of the numerous ‘big tunes’ in this group’s awesome arsenal of hits. And while they will do exactly what they do best, patrons are cautioned to “expect the unexpected” from these singers who have what it takes to thrill and impress.
According to Stevie Face, he plans to take fans and potential fans on a musical journey to a place they have never been before
Not one to brag and sing his own praises, the soft-spoken singer, seemed in the mood to make promises. “Knowing the calibre of show that Take Me Away is, it will be up to me to ensure that I am at my impressive best and I will be,” the singer stated.
Still making waves with his cover of the 1966 Aaron Neville hit, Tell It Like It Is — a song which briskly climbed local and international charts late last year — Stevie Face has been working on follow-up singles with his Boot Camp producer/manager Computer Paul.
An excellent stage performer, Stevie Face will take any audience to a musical high.
Staged under the theme ‘Real Mistas Stand up For Sistas’ the show will be held at the Cable & Wireless Golf Academy on Sunday.

DJ FLAMZE RETURNING TO RADIO?

Oh looky here, people. Guess who’s returning to radio? None other than the irrepressible DJ Flamze.The enigmatic and colourful Sidony ‘DJ Flamze’ Smith may be returning to prime time radio in the next coming weeks, and she may be returning to one of her old haunts to blaze the airwaves once again. Last year, the DJ was ousted from the 1- 5 p.m. afternoon programme by RJR bigwigs who wanted to replace her with the bodacious Ms. Kitty.
There was a bit of a brouhaha which turned nasty on the Internet and then leaked into the daily papers, but Flamze walked away strengthened by the ordeal and landed gigs on HYPE TV and even co-hosted their inaugural HYPE TV awards show earlier this year.

Last night, she showed that she’s still got crazy skills on the ‘wheels of steel’ when she played alongside Nico Bam Bam during Up and Live. Some of the rumours circulating in the industry suggest that she may be returning to ZIP FM. One876entertainment called the radio personality who artfully dodged the question.

“Yes, I am definitely eyeing a return to radio, I have a number of options I am looking at it right now, but I can tell you this, it will be a return to a station that I worked for before, and it’s going to knock the socks off a lot of people...that’s all I am willing to say at this point,” she said.

DJ Flamze has worked on a number of radio stations including Links FM, Vibes FM, Zip and then RJR.
