In two weeks, Cham dropped two new tunes for the ladies - the Coppershot produced "Drop It (Like U Doin It)" and Cashflow's "Wine" which already has a YouTube only video. Check them both below.

229 starts with a tribute to Phillip "Fattis" Burrell who passed away last week leaving behind some of the best culture music of the dancehall era. Then it's on to new Cham, new Delly, new Erup, some new riddims, some new dubs and some other stuff. Welcome to the Federation Invasion.

Here's the full video from the legendary lyrics session that happened when Spragga Benz and Delly Ranx were guests on our East Village Radio show (10.26.11). This is why we love dancehall. Spragga and Delly trade lyrics for almost 12 minutes straight over the Head To Toe, Fat Ting, Answer and Superstar riddims. Legendary. Big up Hanna Herbertson behind the camera.

Respect due to our Trini friend Anya Ayoung-Chee.
