I don’t know about you, but we sure as hell didn’t see this coming, but we are so here for it. The Canadian Jamaican Dancehall artist Lexxicon dropped the mic with this unapologetic, single “Batty Man Party.” Watch it below.
After we watched it, twice we passed on the link to a few people in our network who live between Jamaica, NewYork, and Canada. Here are their reviews.
First up is
A Canadian/Jamaica Audio Engineer. She said: ” The mix though. Bad yf. Engineer talented. Nah lie. It came Out niiiiice. Catchy. Got alllll the ear candy. Like alllll the ear candy. This is right out of the book of Steely and Clevie. No sound repeated so creativity on this is off the charts as for production. Every likkle time break down comes, you’re getting a diff transition. Mi nah ask Christ. Someone is reallllllllly adhd. the sonics …. They did not come to play. I bet if I broke out my meters this is sitting at -8 or -9 LUFS. Likkle gungo spend pon dis. And it was well spent. But also. Some of this cookie cutter. And very matter of fact. If the right engineer gets this – they just swap out a pitbull mix and insert this mix. And voila. Fk u. Pay me. What was paid for was the time to customize those transitions.”
ANother British/Jamaica Entertainment Executive: “A lot of the straight crew as seh mi nah lie it have a vibe. Its a bop. It inna mi car playing today.”
A Gay Jamaican/American Based in New York: He said “I just listened to the battyman patty song. Omg it needs to be a hit. It is certainly on the hottest beat worldwide right now.”
We here at OutCaribe: We love it, what an answer to songs like Buju Banton’s Boom Bye BYe song and also TOK’s” Long on and Step pon ChiChi.” It’s a musical f*ck you, we’re gonna live our lives culture shifting kinda song.
