Philly link up tonight Sunday, February 7th at Medusa Lounge. Federation Sound in the place with a special performance by Mr. Lexx. 21st & Chestnut. Brought to you by Federation and Launchpad Media.

Big up Andrew Bradford a.k.a. Buccaneer. Who else could make dancehall opera tunes and jack Enya's "Orinoco Flow" and turn it into not one, but two big tunes? Wicked voice, wicked flow and some of the illest records the dancehall has ever heard. Let's all salute this crazy pirate for having the cojones to go where no Jamaican artist had gone before (or since). He also produced some massively big hits, including Red Rat's "Dwayne" and "Tight Up Skirt" for his appropriately named Opera House label. Big up the real Pirate Of The Caribbean, Mr. Bradford, the Buccaneer. Click for more [ CONTINUE ]
