As summer approaches the battle for the season's break out single is intensifying with various dancehall/reggae artistes penning their versions in search of that illusive summer smash hit. ANG (Alliance Next Generation) recording artiste and protégé of dancehall legend Bounty Killer, Patexx has however narrowed the search after releasing what may be the summer anthem for 2013. Fittingly titled Red Party Cup the track was produced by Studio Vibe Production and is already enjoying heavy rotation on local and international radio as well as in the dancehall.

According to Studio Vibe Production's publicist Karl Durrant the label is keen on creating a buzz for the summer, "the plan is to officially introduce the label to the public this summer by releasing songs that are appropriate for the season and this track is one of them. Patexx is a very talented artiste and this song has a great hook that everyone can sing along to and the riddim is also fantastic so its definitely in the runnings for summer song of 2013 even though it's still very early in the season" stated Durrant.

Studio Vibe Production which is headed by producers Oliver Wright and Adrian Jones will be releasing another project in the middle of June entitled the Jet Stream Riddim which will feature artistes such as I-octane, Munga, Alkaline and new artist Sqeel.

Legendary production duo, Sly and Robbie are celebrating the release of their most recent project, The Rebel. The pioneers of rockers and Rub A Dub have fused their unique sounds with the vocals of dancehall bombshell, Danielle DI. The Rebel is Danielle DI's debut album, constructed to showcase her to the world.

"It's an immense opportunity to work with Taxi Records and One Pop Music. Sly and Robbie have worked with the best in the music industry on an international scale, from Britney Spears, Madonna, Mick Jagger, No Doubt to Grace Jones, Jimmy Cliff and Shabba Ranks, so I feel blessed. The tracks are very different, it's far from what you would expect from a dancehall artiste, its more world music. If you don't have a passion for genuine, authentic music you wont be able to comprehend or appreciate this one," Danielle DI exclaims.

Danielle DI is no new comer to the spotlight. Rorey Baker and the riddim twins produced one of her first tunes, Brown Girl featuring Beenie Man in 2006. Shortly after she scored her first hit in the European market with Ce'Cile, Turn Him On. Her breakthrough song on the local scene was the collaboration, Beat It with Vybz Kartel. Danielle DI has now embarked on a new journey. Her mission is to create a stable position in the forefront for her genre on a global platform.

Official distributor of The Rebel, Tads Records is also enthused about the release. CEO Tad Dawkins shared, "This is a power move by Sly and Robbie to utilize their expertise to carve the future. Success is our focus and therefore we wholly endorse this project." The Rebel is now available on iTunes, Amazon and all major music outlets.

At a press conference a short while ago, Burrell said following last night's 2-0 loss to Honduras, he had a meeting with Whitmore at 0100 hours in Tegucigalpa.

"Following that meeting, coach Whitmore took the decision to tender his resignation," Burrell said.

According to Burrell, the string of poor performances by the national team demands action. 

"A coach's tenure depends on the results. Admittedly, the results over the past months have not been good and hence I have, without any reservation, accepted coach Whitmore's resignation," he said.

However, Burrell has seemingly not closed the door on Whitmore.

"Coach Whitmore has gained tremendous experience and there are other areas in which that experience can be used. But as it relates to the Reggae Boyz team coach Whitmore has resigned as the head coach and will resign from that unit," he said.

Asked about the role of technical director Afredo Motessso, Burrell said it will take a few days before a decision is made.

"The technical committee and the JFF, in the next few days, will be discussing this matter as high priority," he said, in reference to the way forward following Whitmore's fallout.

In the meantime, Burrell says Jamaica still has a chance to qualify for the World Cup finals from the group of six teams.

"We're still in the qualifying, we still have in place the management staff and we will not want to dismantle the aggregation there," he said.

"All is not lost, there is still hope. Though it may be considered slim we still have a chance and will ask the public to continue supporting the programme."

Rumors have been circulating the music community that Vybz kartel was involved in a sexual relationship with the baby mother of reggae artiste Chuck Fenda.

The woman in question is called Georgina, and Vybz Kartel has a song called Georgina, in which he says he wants a girl who can ride it like Georgina.

Note, the message of the song could easily have been misinterpreted, because Georgina is also a horse jockey. So Vybz Kartel could have easily been making reference to the manner in which horses are ridden and not literally implying that he had sex with Chuck Fenda's baby mother (Georgina the jockey).

However music industry pundits are says the self proclaimed world boss was dating Georgina that jockey.
