Lutan Fyah has released a new album called EP and features reggae, dancehall, & even a taste of hip hop. In all honestly, it's Lutan's stripped down reggae that ignites the Fyah. Those tracks are "How Many More" and the 'Struggle' which Lutan knows too well.

New Dancehall Releases

Putzgrilla feat. Virgul & Supa Squad - 'Squeeze Me'

Dancehall PutzGrilla Virgul Supa Sound Squeeze Ma Europe

Here's an interesting song all the way around: Putzgrilla feat. Virgul & Supa Squad  'Squeeze Me.' I don't know much about it and can't find much. Sounds like a Kevin Lyttle song 'Turn Me On.'


New Kulcha Latino Releases

Locos Por Juana - 'Caribe'

Kulcha Latino Locos Por Juana Caribe Colombia

The Grammy nominated & talented band, representing Miami, Locos Por Juana is releasing their new album 'Caribe.' Miami is a melting pot of all cultures that surround the Caribbean and Locos do it on their new album with a strong showing of their Latino roots. This is the first album they sing in English. Locos Por Juana also do two nice fusion styled reggae tracks: 'The Cure' with Collie Buddz and 'Summertime.' Both use English and are two of my favorites. 'Una Foto' sounds like a latin influenced zouk track. Very interesting and one of the hidden gems. There's dancehall influenced tracks like the title track which features Akae Beka, 'Para Siempre' & 'Esta Es La Vida' featuring Notch. These tracks also have a Cumbia feel which is very similar to dancehall and is a native style of Colombia, where lead singer Itawe Correra was born. Speaking of which his voice is so nice, commanding & versatile. A real Joyeria.
