New Music This Week From TeeJay, Romain Virgo, Savage, Rebel Sixx, I Waata Plus More
The collection of new releases this week takes us on a journey in the woodlands with Charly Black, also to watch surfing and bike riding in Bull Bay with Romain Virgo and through the gully with Savage.
Teejay has no time for haters and their hate but if you’re talking about a paycheck then by all means give him a call. I Waata seem to have stepped in some hot water, while Rebel Sixx says no matter how he tries the ‘badness cya done’ in his new single. Let’s get into our reviews for this week’s newest dancehall tracks.
Romain Virgo – Best Of Me
Shot in the unspoiled and reserved rural area of Bull Bay in St. Andrew, Reggae singer Romain Virgo’s new music video for his previously released single Best Of Me debuted on July 7th via YouTube and is already performing well in streams, piling in more than 180k views and counting.
Two stories unfold displaying resilience through dicey underground passions, BMX stunt biking and surfing. An older athlete not quite the star he intended to be is still balancing his wheels on the pavement practicing his craft. Also a skilful surfing mom imparts her talents to her little girl. Directed by Kurt Wright and produced by Zojak Worldwide, check out the full video here –
Savage – Intence Killing
Savage continues to unleash his venom on dancehall deejay Intence as he drops a new music video to bring life into one of his few diss tracks towards the deejay. The single Intence Killing follows in line with Hallow Point, the first Intence diss track and pivots his latest entitled, Through Hell’s Gate, which are all aimed at demolishing the Yeng Badness artiste.
Savage’s new video released on July 8th and is a show to his nemesis that his backing is rock-solid and ruthless as he ‘chop it’ through several rough neighbourhoods with his screw-faced entourage while boasting his piece on his hip. Directed by Amal and produced by Dr Records, watch the full video here –
TeeJay – Stacks & Bands
TeeJay flaunts some unsullied tones on his new single Stack & Bands. The easy delivery on the smooth riddim sounds like the ultimate love song, but in an interesting twist, The Up Top Boss sings, “If a nu money please don’t call my phone.”
The deejay is steadfast in realising his dreams and settling down, though he has identified the green-eyed individuals around him, he says they are still welcome to ring up his phone, but it better be about making that moola.
Produced by Papi Don Muziq and distributed by Zojak Worldwide the single, which was released yesterday July 10th, is streaming well, already racking up 58k views and counting. Listen here –
Rebel Sixx – Badness Cya Done
Trinidadian Dancehall artist Rebel Sixx was killed last week. Badness Cya Done is the first track released by his team since his untimely death.
Rebel, who was affiliated with Squash’s 6ixx clan, dishes an unbothered warning in Badness Cya Done. No matter how he tries to do the right thing, he continues to see his brothers’ fall and, “so much innocent yute get shot and mi nuh see dem nuh have gun.”
The deejay said he’s always strapped and ready, while he would have chosen a different path in life, he has to protect his own, so again the Badness Cya Done.
Mixed and mastered by Noble Touchtt and produced by Attomatic Records, the single already has an impressive 150k streams since its release on July 6.
I Waata – Unknown
I Waata portrays himself as the ultimate stud muffin in this latest release entitled Unknown, which debuted on July 8 via YouTube. He choruses his little scheme, “Memba say yuh nuh know mi, me nuh know yuh, yuh nuh know mi,” so if anyone asks about the threesome with his lady friends, it didn’t happen.
The all agree, but a boyfriend of one of his ladies decides to take matters into his own hands. Produced by Money 3 Production and shot & edited by Lone Wolf Filmz, the music video plays out this whole skit as the deejay is caught in the middle of the action.

Charly Black – Sidung
A call to director Simeon DiGreat is the outcome of this newly produced music video for Charly Black’s previously released single Sidung, also produced by TJ Records and distributed by Zojak World Wide.
The single is featured on the sexy sounding Incredible Riddim that sets the mood for this racy display of ladies shaking their booties to the beat. Charly plays out the scenes to the lyrics of the song “secret lovers, that’s what we are…” so he heads out in the bushy woodlands to secretly meet with his leading lady. They finally find each other then puts on a show. Watch more below –
