Reggae Dancehall artist D’yani is breaking the mold, and expanding his range of hits with the new XTM Nation produced “Live A Likkle”.
This new single is a tranquil reggae groove, occupying a worthy spot among the singles on the riddim titled “Special Request” by XTM Nation, listen to the full mix scrolling down.
“Special Request Riddim” is a smooth, uplifting reminder that despite the struggle, it’s important to make time to appreciate the joys of life.
Although D’yani is appreciated by music lovers of all kinds, fans of the reggae dancehall romance sub genre have been on the receiving end of his biggest hits so far. Using this opportunity to express a more celebratory and soulful side of himself, Dyani has produced one of the best songs on the Riddim thus far, but you can judge by yourself playing the mix.
This XTM.Nation release by Kareem ‘Remus’ Burrell is in fact a continuation of the legacy set out by his father Philip ‘Fatis’ Burrell, who had a similar ambition of mixing older traditions within the sounds and narratives of the music with a fresh perspective.
Special Request is just that. It is a look back at an era in which we were all in love with our own music. The quality of the music was a great factor, and in a similar way, the quality in the production of Special Request is evident. But it is also uniquely its own sound, which Kareem achieves by tapping into the reggae dancehall’s sister genre Hip Hop. An influence we can hear faintly in the bass drums that create the initial excitement, like a great sales pitch. Only to enrapture the audience in a thorough musical drama.
