If you haven’t heard Shaggy’s hot new tunes Bonafide Love (this song is also going to be on Shaggy’s upcoming album Intoxication) featuring Rik Rok and Tony Gold and Yuh A Move Hype on the 2007 Shanty Town Riddim a.k.a. Panty Town Riddim yet (or Da’Ville’s Fling It Up or Collie Buddz feat. Roache’s Sensimilia), you now have the chance to listen to the songs on Robbo Ranx‘s Thursday Dancehall Splurt (right at the beginning of the recording). The broadcast will be available until next Thursday, so you still have a week to listen to them!
And there’s more UK news, so UK readers listen up! Shaggy will be performing at the free Leeds Reggae Concert on August 26 in Potternewton Park in Leeds, together with Freddy McGregor, Mr Vegas, Wayne Wonder and a vast number of UK reggae acts. If you’re not from the UK or you can’t attend, there’s no problem, since BBC 1Xtra will broadcast the concert live!
(So I guess Shaggy’s concert in Trinidad on August 26 that Big Yard has on its site is not going to happen.)
A new interview article of Shaggy, Rayvon, Rik Rok and Notch at the Cayman Islands press conference including a large picture of Shaggy just got posted online. It’s all about music, go check it out here!
Some more articles about Shaggy’s upcoming performance at the Jamaican Independence Sunday Market at the lawns of the Organization of American States in Washington D.C. on August 5, which will celebrate Jamaica’s 45 years of independence anniversary, are online. A good source if you wanna check out more links is at the Read Express by the Washington Post. There are also some announcements on the site of the Jamaican Embassy and the Jamaican Information Service.
As for the Singfest 2007 in Singapore on August 8, I got a couple of requests for the promo flyer. I heard you might be able to get the student discount flyer at HMV, but I’m not sure of that. If you want to know where to get your tickets and get the large flyer, go here. Flyer is © of its original owners, no copyright infringement intended.
Did anyone from Japan catch the MTV Japan Shaggy special yet? If you did or do, please let us know how it was!
I found a Rayvon & Rik Rok & Shaggy performance on YouTube that I hadn’t added yet, and there’s also a live interview video of Rik Rok, Shaggy, Notch at the VIP Party at the Cayman Islands concert last week:
